Use this guide to learn the basics of Breach, the Swedish Initiator in VALORANT who will make the ground tremble underneath you.
Breach is one of the top Initiator Agents in VALORANT. The bionic man, named Erik Torsten, is a criminal from Sweden. After serving his prison sentence, he created the mechanical arms that he uses to unleash his various abilities.
You’ll often hear his lack of patience and eagerness for a fight before the round begins. Everything he is capable of matches his aggressive nature perfectly. If that sounds like an Agent you identify with, then use this guide to understand the basics of how Breach works in VALORANT.
Is Breach good in VALORANT?
The short answer is yes. Breach is a great Agent for anyone that doesn’t quite want the entry responsibilities of a Duelist, but does want to be right in the thick of the battle.
Breach’s abilities let you assist your teammates or set yourself up for success. They can blind enemies while your Duelist looks to create space, ensure the pathway to a site is clear, and stun the opposition so you can easily move in to take them out.
Key points about Breach
Breach abilities in VALORANT
Breach has a signature ability, two basic abilities, and an Ultimate. The Initiator does not have a passive ability in play. His utility in VALORANT can help your team enter a site, clear a lane or corner, and prevent the enemy team from executing any quick pushes.
Fault Line
Fault Line is Breach’s Signature ability in VALORANT. You begin every round with it and it can be used multiple times if the cooldown expires before the round does. The ability equips a seismic blast that quakes and concusses anyone who is caught in it.
Here are some tips on using it:
Flashpoint
Flashpoint is arguably Breach’s most important ability. Flashes are invaluable in VALORANT. Use it to send a blinding charge through a wall and remove the sight of all players who look at it. Be careful not to flash your teammates with it.
