'''''Valorant''''' (stylized as '''VALORANT''') is a competetive multiplayer first-person shooter by Riot Games, known best for ''League of Legends''. In gameplay highly comparable to [[Counter-Strike]], two teams of 5 face off against eachother across multiple rounds, with the attacking team attempting to deliver and detonate the Spike in designated locations, which the defenders must prevent. In the start of each round, players (known as Agents) can purchase more powerful weapons with credits awarded for their performance in the previous round. However, each Agent is also equipped with unique abilities provided by either advanced technology or supernatural powers, including walls of fire, recon drones, orbital laser bombardment, wind-powered dashes and ghostly teleportation. | |||
'''The following weapons appear in the video game ''Valorant'':''' | |||
=Handguns= | |||
==Classic== | |||
The basic pistol every player receives, dubbed the "Classic," resembles a [[Beretta Px4 Storm]] with it's beveled slide and skeletonized hammer, though featuring an unique grip with a heavily slanted butt. Has an alternate fire which fires a lightning-fast 3-round burst. | |||

[[Image:Valorant Classic.jpg|thumb|none|400px|"Classic"]] | |||
=="Ghost"== | |||
The "Ghost" has an obvious [[Desert Eagle]] barrel and slide, though heavily elongated and vertically squished, married onto a nondescript striker-fired pistol. Comes equipped with a suppressor and a cosmetic laser sight. | |||
[[Image:Desert-Eagle.jpeg|thumb|none|400px|IMI Desert Eagle Mark XIX - .50 AE]] | |||

[[Image:Valorant Ghost.jpg|thumb|none|400px|"Ghost"]] | |||
==Sheriff== | |||
The "Sheriff" is an expensive, beefy revolver that can one-shot Agents on a headshot. Not distinctly based on any design, though it has a barrel shroud similar to a Taurus Raging Hunter and a hexagonal cylinder like Chiappa revolvers. | |||

[[File:Valorant Sheriff.jpg|thumb|none|400px|"Sheriff"]] | |||
=Shotguns= | |||
==Shorty== | |||
The cheapest purchasable weapon in the game, the "Shorty" is a compact double-barrel shotgun that can be carried instead of a pistol. | |||
[[File:Valorant Shorty.jpg|thumb|none|400px|"Shorty." Note the presence of aperture and blade sights despite the barrel length; supposedly this is a "factory" model rather than a sawed-off full-size shotgun.]] | |||
==Bucky== | |||
This otherwise standard pump shotgun features an interesting airburst mode as it's alternate fire; the shell flies for 8 meters before releasing a forward spray of buckshot, as if the weapon was fired 8 meters ahead. | |||

=Submachine Guns= | |||
==Frenzy== | |||
The "Frenzy" is a cheap machine pistol that can be carried in the pistol slot; it resembles a [[KRISS Vector]] compacted down to a [[TEC-9]] sized package. | |||
[[File:KRISS SDP II.jpg|thumb|none|450px|KRISS USA Gen II Vector SDP - .45 ACP / 9x19mm Parabellum]] | |||
[[File:Valorant Frenzy.jpg|thumb|none|400px|"Frenzy."]] | |||
==Stinger== | |||
Cheaper of the two primary submachine guns, the "Stinger" has an extremely fast firerate, and a 4-round burst mode when aiming down the sights. | |||

[[File:Valorant Stinger.jpg|thumb|none|400px|"Stinger."]] | |||
==Spectre== | |||
The "Spectre" comes suppressed and is the choice for when one wants a fully automatic primary, but doesn't have the funds for a full-power rifle. | |||

[[File:Valorant Spectre.jpg|thumb|none|400px|"Spectre."]] | |||
=Assault Rifles= | |||
==Bulldog== | |||
Cheapest of the automatic assault rifles, the "Bulldog" is weaker than the other two, but has a 3-round burst when aiming down the sights. | |||
[[File:Tavor 7.jpg|thumb|none|400px|IWI Tavor 7 - 7.62x51mm NATO]] | |||
[[File:Valorant Bulldog.jpg|thumb|none|400px|"Bulldog."]] | |||
==Guardian== | |||
The semi-automatic "Guardian" trades rate of fire for a higher zoom and instantly lethal headshots at any range. | |||
[[File:SOCOM 16 CQB.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Springfield Armory SOCOM 16 CQB - 7.62x51mm NATO]] | |||
[[File:Valorant Guardian.jpg|thumb|none|400px|"Guardian."]] | |||
==Phantom== | |||
The premium assault rifle "Phantom" comes suppressed and has good damage, rate of fire and accuracy across the board. | |||
[[File:Valorant Phantom.jpg|thumb|none|400px|"Phantom."]] | |||
==Vandal== | |||
A counterpart to the Phantom, the "Vandal" has the same price tag, but trades some rate of fire and accuracy for damage capable of one-shot kill headshots as well as higher penetration. Unlike in Counter-Strike where the M4A1 and the AK-47 have their own fans, but are only available for purchase for their respective teams, in Valorant both teams can choose between the Phantom and Vandal at their leisure. | |||

Some of these IDs are a bit generous. I'm not sure this title is eligible. --Funkychinaman (talk) 00:01, 26 December 2020 (EST)
- Eh, some of them are certainly off a bit (e.g. the Zastava-Operator connection, despite the Operator having a Barrett-style lower and what appears to be a slanted Arctic Warfare bolt, the Judge looking more like a mocked-up tube-fed shotgun than an actual AA-12, or the Vandal having more in common with the Alpha AK than the AEK prototype), some of them are missing parts (e.g. the Classic looking a fair bit like a Ruger P-series pistol in addition to the Px4, the Ghost having the underbarrel components of the Hudson H9, or the Spectre having bits of a UMP45), and some are missing IDs entirely (e.g. the Odin being essentially a giant KAC ChainSAW with an MG42-style charging handle, the Phantom being a really smooth HK433 with a SCAR-H mag shoved in it, and whatever the Marshal is trying to be), but I'd still say it's eligible - a lot of the guns have a pretty evident real-world inspiration.

- Real-world inspiration opens up a lot of doors, doors we don't necessarily want opened. --Funkychinaman (talk) 16:13, 26 December 2020 (EST)

Valorant (stylized as VALORANT) is a competetive multiplayer first-person shooter by Riot Games, known best for League of Legends. In gameplay highly comparable to Counter-Strike, two teams of 5 face off against eachother across multiple rounds, with the attacking team attempting to deliver and detonate the Spike in designated locations, which the defenders must prevent. In the start of each round, players (known as Agents) can purchase more powerful weapons with credits awarded for their performance in the previous round. However, each Agent is also equipped with unique abilities provided by either advanced technology or supernatural powers, including walls of fire, recon drones, orbital laser bombardment, wind-powered dashes and ghostly teleportation.
The following weapons appear in the video game Valorant:
Handguns
