Just Released, Gekko Becomes One of the Most Popular Agents in the Valorant Rank!

The newest and hottest agent in VALORANT has some pretty cool creatures by his side⁠. And it seems like he immediately became one of the most popular agents in rank.

Gekko, who is the initiator role, was added to the game yesterday, slowly starting to increase in popularity as players get used to his skills.

Not only is the pick rate quite high, Gekko’s win rate isn’t too bad either.

In the lower ranks, such as Iron and Bronze, Gekko has a top 3 win rate in each rank, data from Blitz.gg. Have a win rate above 50%. For his own pick rate, he is at around 4%, still more or less in the top 10.

In the Silver and Gold ranks, Gekko’s pick rate is even higher at around 5.5%. The win rate is also still high, above 50% and is in the top 7 highest win rates in this rank.

Each higher rank, such as Diamond or Ascendent, the pick rate is also higher. But the winrate is not as good as some other agents for high ranks, especially at Immortal rank.

The most interesting is probably in the Radiant rank. Where Gekko’s pick rate is 15.4%, the third highest with a win rate of 76%! The highest for pickrate is above 15%.

The pick rate and win rate are quite impressive, seeing as this agent has just been released and many people are still learning how to use it.

We have also seen several Valorant pro players who often use it while streaming, such as Jason “f0rsakeN” Susanto from Paper Rex.

One of the biggest reasons is probably the skill which is quite simple to play and understand.

He has a molly called the Mosh Pit which is a wide radius grenade that packs a punch. His Wingman ability, apart from serving as a stun, can also plant or tame spikes for Gekko. His signature ability Dizzy acts as a standard flash that blinds enemies at close range.

We need to buff Killjoy’s Lockdown so it can’t be destroyed by normal utilities 😃
