One VALORANT weapon perfectly demonstrates the skill gap between ranks

It should go without saying that the primary weapons of VALORANT are so much more valuable when they’re in the hands of the highest-skilled players. When it comes to the Operator, the game’s primary sniper rifle, that is most certainly the case since the weapon finds more use and value as you climb the ranks.

The Operator’s ranking when it comes to kills per match compared to other weapons climbs as you get into higher and higher ranks, according to weapons usage stats from Blitz.gg.
