Her utility packs a major punch, and forces enemies to retreat or lose most of their health to her utility. Raze is especially fantastic because she doesn\u2019t require many lineups or prior knowledge to find success. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=kseZgq4u_ZU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"The ONLY Raze Guide You'll EVER NEED! - VALORANT 2023\">To master this Agent<\/a>, you will need to take time to practice with her mechanics and get comfortable with utilizing her Blast Packs to get into sites fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strengths<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"525\" height=\"908\" src=\"https:\/\/www.proguides.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Raze_Fullbody.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2123\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.proguides.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Raze_Fullbody.png 525w, https:\/\/www.proguides.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Raze_Fullbody-173x300.png 173w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Raze has the ability to find extremely fast entries into sites and catch her opponents off guard using her Blast Packs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>She has the strongest grenades in the game, that when thrown well can kill an opponent or leave them extremely low health.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>With her Boom Bot, Raze can gather information and clear a good amount of space.

FIRE will deploy the bot, causing it to travel in a straight line on the ground, bouncing off walls. The Boom Bot will lock on to any enemies in its frontal cone and chase them, exploding for heavy damage if it reaches them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ability 2 (Q) &#8211; Blast Pack<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video aligncenter\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/www.proguides.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/raze_02_blast-pack_MASTER_2022-08-25.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>INSTANTLY throw a Blast Pack that will stick to surfaces. RE-USE the ability after deployment to detonate, which damages and moves anything hit.

FIRE to throw the grenade, which does damage and creates sub-munitions, each doing damage to anyone in their range. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.proguides.com\/guides\/valorant\/10-powerful-valorant-abilities-youre-probably-using-the-wrong-way\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"10 Powerful VALORANT Abilities You\u2019re Probably Using The Wrong Way\">This ability is refreshed after Raze obtains 2 kills<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ultimate Ability (X) &#8211; Showstopper<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video aligncenter\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/www.proguides.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/raze_04_showstopper_MASTER_2022-08-25.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>EQUIP a rocket launcher.

Before attempting this tip in a real game, we\u2019d recommend spending some time in a private match getting used to using Raze\u2019s Blast Packs and their momentum. To perform this tip, the order of operations should be placing one blast pack, detonating it for momentum, then activating her Showstopper ability, using another Blast Pack to cancel the animation for Showstopper, and finally firing the rocket at an enemy&#8217;s location. This tip is relatively advanced and will take some time to get down, but once perfected will provide immense value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tip #2 &#8211; Boom Bot Leads the Way!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video aligncenter\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/www.proguides.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Raze-Following-Boom-Bot-v01.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Raze\u2019s Boom Bot is great for gathering information and forcing opponents off of common angles. When an enemy&#8217;s position is revealed, Raze\u2019s Boom Bot can be deployed and followed by Raze to take down an opponent as they destroy her Boom Bot. While they\u2019re destroying the Boom Bot, their crosshair placement will have to be readjusted, giving the Raze a major advantage. Remember though, timing the peek perfectly is very important, because if the Boom Bot isn\u2019t close enough to force the opponent\u2019s hand, they may not be focused on it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first agent to join VALORANT from Brazil, Raze brings big guns and an explosive play style.
