I feel like neon is the definition of a casual stomp agent. In lower ranks, where everyone doesn’t one tap you as soon as you peek a pixel out, her ult in particular can be VERY good (a more consistent Jett ult) for players who are better/more consistent at tracking compared to one taps/flicks. But in high level/pro play she’s not worth
I have a feeling she could be extremely useful when someone can really play her and abuse her mobility, but just as a 'hop on this character and use their utility' yeah she doesn't bring much
@@nxvh9062 its the same as yoru, a good player can make it work but that doesnt make it anymore good or useful. its just someone fragging out on the agent
@@Senbonzakuraaaapp Her Stun is my main gripe in and of itself. Going 2 Duelist (Her included) often becomes problematic in lower elo because the first instinct of the neon is throw her stun forgetting the fact that everyone in her team as attacker goes for the entry...
Idk, for me Neon is pretty nice character, her slides help to surprise attack enemies, and yeah 30% out of time it doesn't work well, but it still helps, her mobility makes it easy to rotate and confuse some players in some moments, I can't tell that her ULT is useful, but in some moments it is fun to track people with it. Would've been more useful, if she had chain lightning on her second skill, cause it is worthless for now, like that skill doesn't do much. Or just make her walls to damage more hp, than it does for now, cause I don't buy it just because it doesn't change anything at all. But still, her mobility is the best part of her tbh, I play her just because she runs fast and slides, cause it is the most common thing I needed after Apex.
Agree, neon is mega-overhyped by under immortal. I'm radiant in SEA server and this character is good, but not have the biggest impact in team play. If you play solo it's GREAT, you can run fast, wall, stun, slide shoot, etc. But in teamplay, her biggest weapon become her biggest weakness. So as long as you play casual, just chilling, this agent is super fun to play.
I think Neon should be paired with jett for a very good entry duo. Imagine having smokes to cover your sprinting neon or stuns for a jett dashing for a kill. When Feb comes we will see a new meta for sure, considering Neon and Chamber are now available.
I think shroud kinda judges all characters like they were supposed to cater towards pros which they are not. this game is 99.9% casual players and the pro scene is only a fraction of the player base. Not every character riot has and is going to release will have a place in the pro meta or even be intended to be played by pros. With neon especially i feel like its very obvious she caters towards low to mid elo players who just enjoy running and gunning and don’t take the game too seriously whilst sliding around the map.
I think she could be a strong pocket pick in higher ranks. There are characters kinda like her in r6 siege, and they maintain pro viability because they throw off 'normal' gameplay so much
I don’t think an agent has to fit into pro play to be a good agent , they game has loads of game modes including unrated so if she’s fun to play i think she’s a good agent
He’s not wrong, neon is a terrible character in high ranks. That running out and sliding shit doesn’t work unless you are someone like shroud. Her stuns are okay but easily avoided and there’s very few places on most maps where you can bounce it so it becomes repetitive, her wall is pretty good for getting into site but it doesn’t last long so it HAS to be paired with a flash agent. Her ugly is pretty good but it has a slow to kill unless you are really close which kind of sucks. All in all I agree with what he said, neon is basically just a ranked stomp character.
Honestly Neon pretty good in breeze. That long wall is very nice Her ult does seem slow to kill being that it's literal lighting. Maybe like if it killed like 100ms faster also her concuss just seems to fly away super far away.
Yeah he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. He gets these weird opinions and no matter what anyone says to him in chat he always combats it with something stupid. Neon is good and will continue to be good if she isn’t nerfed in any way
her wall is ok, its the stun, like really why is it there? a electrical blind would be so much better, or maybe she blinds people for a brief moment but it also jams their tech? like kj's turret would be jammed by electricity? if she would be able to blind and jam at the same time that'd be cool
@@nsdevilz1011 You definitely have to get used to her stuns but i think this ability has a high potential. Also her wall isn't that bad and her ult is actually very good. In my opinion she is a pretty solid char.
Shroud instantly talking shit on neon, mans doesn’t understand the potential of those damn stuns man, the wall is a very good way to easily split sites as a duelist, if anyone actually cares about professional opinions don’t get them from shroud

Neon is pretty good in ranked too,he can entry and help stun while the others are trying their best to shoot her,her team would kill them in exchange

you can say you have pretty good lvl when you say the character is not that good but roll over an entire team alone with it at the same time XD
If your main weapon is shotgun play neon slide and boom enemy died that's simple
Noodle play neon is so sick 95 percent op but when shroud play neon only 40 percent he don't know how the skill works
He was literally smurfing. Something that isn't allowed lol
@@markcrumbz3172 is was not smurfing. It was rank reset.
fucking plats and diamonds any avg player would roll over these shits
Shroud: I think neon is bad
also Shroud: *makes it look like neon is broken*
huh??
Built different
“I really don’t see her fitting into any professional meta”
Meanwhile iron players playing call of duty on split running at the speed of light 🏃
Wat
Oh damn didnt know iron players are professionals
Well he did say professional

2:13 carefull XD watch your eyes kids, it's bloody...
“Getting out of plat isn’t that hard”
Plat players:
Hey man I think this game is unleashing your inner animal! Lmao 7:05
2nd half pistol round was amazing 👏
have been watching you since cloud9 cs homie miss the fire serp days much love
He fired the last video editor i guess 😂😂

good point
Well, I mean thats the unique insight he has, otherwise he has nothing interesting to say that an average valorant player wouldnt already know
It’s only normal for him to judge agents like that. Shroud is a very great player and has been competing in games for many years.
thats his thing tho so of course he does
He did say she's a pubstomper; really good at it.
I love your Videos best part of my day is when they come out
I feel like neon is only good at the beginning, but when people start catching on to her patterns, she’s gonna lose her viability
So basically like any new agent?
@@NiliMoto 💀
Kinda like Yoru at first
@@NiliMoto astra, chamber, and kaiyo were all good from the get go and are still used a lot in high ranks
I think she could be a strong pocket pick in higher ranks. There are characters kinda like her in r6 siege, and they maintain pro viability because they throw off 'normal' gameplay so much
Well if the pros did find a use of Phoenix am sure they will find use of Neon.
Phoenix's ult is more viable to run thru sites so
I don’t think an agent has to fit into pro play to be a good agent , they game has loads of game modes including unrated so if she’s fun to play i think she’s a good agent
That 6-6 clutch is why shroud got picked and you didn’t
Shroud is soo cracked it’s crazy

Shroud: Neon sucks - Minutes later, owns a team alone with her! xD
ayo
probably cuz you still use weapons? no matter what agent youre on
@@tempo5555 Doh... But you clearly see in the video that he uses her skills to play that aggresive.
ghost demon shroud
Damn shroud popped off in this vid fr
Honestly Neon pretty good in breeze. That long wall is very nice
Her ult does seem slow to kill being that it's literal lighting. Maybe like if it killed like 100ms faster also her concuss just seems to fly away super far away.
They actually tried to hit you with the afk lie
I'm glad the intro is not loud anymore
I think we teams might play breach, astra, viper, neon, sky. These are all characters that can synergize verry easily.
I remember he said the same about jett kekw
Yeah he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. He gets these weird opinions and no matter what anyone says to him in chat he always combats it with something stupid. Neon is good and will continue to be good if she isn’t nerfed in any way
Shroud all time C9 god ❤️🔥
when Shroud plays seriously 10:13
I’m always surprised at how good people are in low ranks in this game
Dat clutch with ghost
9:24 wow! 1vs4🥵🥵🥵 lit 🔥
bruh shroud ur so good, i was jett gg brother
Neon is a agent that requires someone insane at mechanical aim is what I’m getting from this
Not really, shes very run and gun and thrives at close quarters combat.
Shroud are you on steroids on this one?
*OPTIC VICTOR HAS ENTERED THE CHAT*
her wall is ok, its the stun, like really why is it there? a electrical blind would be so much better, or maybe she blinds people for a brief moment but it also jams their tech? like kj's turret would be jammed by electricity? if she would be able to blind and jam at the same time that'd be cool
9:20 That’s a funny choice to words lol
9:24 epic moment
That cyper was my dad
Proplayer no1 in my. Heart
Hey Buddy, watching you since 4 years now, love your videos, love from India ♥️
Neons stun is pretty sick tho, despite all his complaints with her
yeah her stuns are nice but many times i stunned myself/my teammate because of the bounce
@@nsdevilz1011 You definitely have to get used to her stuns but i think this ability has a high potential. Also her wall isn't that bad and her ult is actually very good. In my opinion she is a pretty solid char.
Cant wait for crazy racoon to be the first team to use neon
your opinion on games is placid shes gonna be played and bind is the only decent map in valorant
Shroud just diff
Im waiting for new smokes agent still
Astra bb, although even she’s old now
2:39 so if you finish someone with a wallbang, the finisher won't show up?
I love your gameplay man♥️♥️
it's so funny to see shroud shouting hahahahahah
Why don’t you have a kill icon at the bottom of your screen for some guns that you use when you get a pick?
This guy… 😍
She kinda gives me the fun vibe of playing games
6:21 is The REAL Action on Trailer
feels like he is playing warzone.
7:26 pure john wick moment
he said "oh my god"... yeah XD
Shroud i know u dont check these but I GOT YOUR FREAKIN MOUSE DUUDE
Back when I was on c9 I kept teelin em
it's 1 in morning here, no problem
this guy should go pro
2:13 that's bullying
5:00 molly aint whatever, its good
He funny how he complains about the agent while absolutely dominating the enemies with her that defense pistol round clutch was something else
Best gamer ever lived❤️❤️❤️❤️
my boi da best❤️
my toxic trait is thinking i can shoot the ghost like him
Ya boi is to early o.O im not stalking you i swear
Everyone have a blessed day if you see this
Nice game shroud!
Neon gives me apex vibes
Shroud please play some csgo everyone would love to see it I guarantee a video on csgo would do really well
Bruh shroud knows every duelist's plays in valorant wahahaha
bruh shroud, why didn't you upgrade your reaver?
Panutanku 🗿
Shroud gets more angry with age lol
i know why neon has all these powers
No one’s said anything about that head dink on astra bout halfway thru. Doesnt kill the guy but definitely was a amazing shot
G303 baby
The GOAT of gaming
How shroud plays mouse 2
neon is best rule 34 materiel
A bit of apex action
6:08 😳
*Human aimbot*
hollyshitt
imagine facing shroud in plat lobby
shroud with a ghost is like tenz with an op (yes i like both players) ^^
Apart from everything CYPER was a god here
Shroud is like the Elon of the gaming community
Shroud ur my papa
9:26 _Jesus Christ_
Shroud instantly talking shit on neon, mans doesn’t understand the potential of those damn stuns man, the wall is a very good way to easily split sites as a duelist, if anyone actually cares about professional opinions don’t get them from shroud
he is your actual father so close your mouth
@@batsu6229 nah he’s a brain dead aimer and that’s pretty much it, he doesn’t consider any actual potential with her kit and instantly deems it as bad
Neon is actually op if u know how to use her kit especially run and slide like Red did
Neon is a monster in lower elo imo
Shroud "Phoenix is only good for his ult", Phoenix who's other utilities can heal him and flashes are good if used well😢
Please put a compressor on your mic output. You're damaging my gear...
One of my fav players ❤️
Love from india man♥️♥️
