Official Iso gameplay reveal confirms he’ll be go-to choice for VALORANT aim gods

All eyes have turned toward the next agent and duelist coming to VALORANT, Iso, since the lethal assassin and his ability kit were revealed yesterday. And with the official gameplay reveal now released today, it’s clear that hopping in Aim Labs is more of a requirement than a suggestion.

Riot has made its goal of building a duelist agent that’s reliant on precision and confidence clear, and that goal is certainly reflected in Iso’s kit, namely in his Double Tap ability. Double Tap activates a focus timer window, similar to the timing window Jett now has for her dash. During this “flow state” window, killing or damaging an enemy generates an energy orb. Shooting the orb grants Iso a shield that absorbs one single instance of damage.
