I feel like Killjoy is good right now, but deserves some buffs in order to keep up with the meta. I believe she is now lacking a lot due to Chamber controlling the Sentinel role. She deserves to at least have a universal range with all her utility which allows her to be a sentinel that can keep up with the meta. Maybe even possibly increasing damage to her turret.
I like KJ as a relatively new player. Her role is simple, her abilities can help locate enemies if they get within LOS, and they can fo free damage which helps me stall a push and get free kills.
Yeah, her advantage is that she is easy to learn but you can also master her by learning lineups for nano swarms and use her creatively by changing your set ups all the time and even switch the site you cover constantly during a game to not give the enemies the chance to adjust to you. If your aim isn't that good she is still the best sentinel to pick. If you are a headshot machine then Chamber is a great alternative, too. Only Cypher is a little bit weak right now.
Yoo same, i got this game a month ago, and she's been my main, she's the first I unlocked I'm gonna try out other sentinels, I'm unlocking cypher and I'll unlock chamber afterwards I've tried duelist with neon and jett, I do enjoy rushing but at the same time I am patient, although sometimes i rush as kj even though I'm not supposed to. I tried initiator and failed at that, im eh on controller
KJ was pretty good before chamber was introduced - and with the heavier usage of kayo, and characters like sova and brim, she does feel a bit weak. Make either her turret or her alarmbot global, reduce the cooldowns on her abilities, or even tighten the range at which her alarmbot/mollies can be sensed, could all be good, small buffs. She doesnt need anything too big.
Played a month with KJ after using Cypher. Been loving it. You can either lock down an area or keep enemies at bay enough for you team to rotate when used right. Would def recommend learning the nano swarm line ups on attack. Alarm bot and turret should be used separate from each other. But, pair either with the nano swarms. Sounds confusing but the nano swarms are very, very versatile.
I just wish Killjoy's utilities are cheaper, I'm always bankrupt even after winning rounds and I just don't think that's fair considering that I need to setup every single round
I started playing 4 days ago and KJ was an Agent I thought I would be relatively good at, as a new player these tips are kind of complicated to remember when I'm nervous in a match but I do think they'll help. Thanks for the Video!
@Igor Animations All the more reason to wait for his to be gone. His is really good at possibly wiping out your team. If he saves his purely to get rid of the Kj ult, then by not using it you’re saving multiple team members until he either gets impatient in which case you’re good to go, or he never uses it and you completely block one of the strongest damage outs ults the other team has. Personal opinion of course, but as a strong KJ main, I’ve found this to be super beneficial
I think she needs some buffs, specially compared to chambers trip, I think that her trip needs infinite range, or bigger range u hav e to be in, but I think the turrets fairly balanced, if not op
Another for kj molley post plant: if you stand directly above the bomb and throw down it hides in the spike and it either impossible or hard to see. can be tricky to do with looming opponents but good with time
As a KJ main coming back 2 years later, this helps me out a lot. I never realized how much I missed playing her. Neon was my go to as an entry fragger, but being able to clear several angles simultaneously as KJ is just so much better
Hey, I think less dense game lingo when explaining would be really beneficial for those of us who are new to Valorant and fps in general. It creates a huge barrier of entry for new players.
pro tip: if you plant the spike near an object that is thing enough, such as boathouse walls or boxes on ascent, your swarm grenades can still hit the spike. Its a great solution if your swarms keeps getting shot out
As a kj player, the main essential thing u have to have is a powerfull setup where enemies will have a hard time taking down ur bots and ur util will automatically drain their health. (Put turrets in off angles)
I love Killjoy! As a new player, she's pretty simple to use. Free dmg from turret, free vision from the alarmbot and for nanoswarm I'm still figuring out how to use it but I rlly like her kit otherwise.
I am not a Killjoy main, but I think she is kinda weak. As more and more big maps are added to the game. She is becoming kinda weak. Also her counter part Chamber is doing better than Killjoy in meta
Tbh, I wanna achieve a goal where I'm good at at least one agent of each type For sentinel its killjoy, she was my first ever main and still is. For duelist, it's neon, but i recently got her and I'm still practicing. For controller, I'm pretty sure it's harbour, although I kind of know how to use astra, and I barely know how to use omen or brim For initator, I only have sova and im bad at him lmao -this is coming from an iron 3 who got this game only a month ago
not really, cuz a good kj makes it impossible for the opponents to take site. You can't really say that for a cypher, cuz cyphers role is to gather info (traps, camera, ult), wherase kj has nanos which can prevent the enemies from planting the spike. Also, her ult is so much better than cyphers, fax
tbh i think you can use the ‘util on one place to get a kill’ once or twice a half. just because they won’t expect it and i you can get back sight together. on pistol rounds it’s even better. i can get 1 or 2 kills by only util :)
Average Killjoy main in my lobby: -Questionable site set ups. -No flank denial. -Can't aim and also slow af. -Questionable Ult placement. -Overall pls go learn the basic of Killjoy fundamental i would appreciate it. (I am a Hard fucking stuck Gold Killjoy) (Either i am bad for a team or my team is just. 💀

turret damage increase would be OP on pistol round
They only need to buff her range. As more and more big maps added to the game. She is becoming kinds useless
but she's supposed to lockdown a site, not the whole fucking map💀 she even explains that in one of her voice line💀💀💀💀💀
@@yuyah7413 I am not talking about her lockdown. I am talking about her alarm bots and turret going down after 40m range

Make alarm global, keep range on turret (would be broken if turret was global)

I agree with you bro
SAME I've had to use spectre like every round, and when I can finally afford, I die
Sounds like a ’you’ problem. 👀
@@frankfrankster2986 i never get the problem when using chamber and i get the same amount of kills when playing both of them 🤷♂️

i feel killjoy is a great agent but its really annoying that whenever i use my ult brimstone just uses his ult on my ult
The solution to that is using your ult when brimstone doesn't have his. 👍🏼
@@signumriver1909 indeed lol
@@signumriver1909 Doesn't work when he's saving it for as long as you are since he wants to use it for the sole purpose of destroying your ultimate.

Learning the lingo is part of getting better at the game tho

u can place nanoswarm on spike to prevent defuses
KJ"s turret rather has less damage its really effective when the opponent is low on hp
I don't like that the turret got nurfed bc there were no range on it but now there i a range that's bad
6:57 The real question is why I'm framing these ult orbs they did nothing to me :(
Havent played kj since her first nerf. Ready to learn again tbh
I didn't knew that the alarm bot went invisible so i always tried to hide them
Great refresher video
As the name stands for itself. KJ main here and I really like her kit, but I liked her much more before her skills got nerfed.
Chamber next plz keep up great content
Watch a steamer or video creator who plays him, you’ll lean a lot
I am not a Killjoy main, but I think she is kinda weak. As more and more big maps are added to the game. She is becoming kinda weak. Also her counter part Chamber is doing better than Killjoy in meta
killjoy is the most annoying agent to deal against. especially in pistol rounds, and good turret placement is so annoying
Then you don't know how to play against her.
@@IgorNetoAnimation yeah kinda
Tbh, I wanna achieve a goal where I'm good at at least one agent of each type
For sentinel its killjoy, she was my first ever main and still is. For duelist, it's neon, but i recently got her and I'm still practicing. For controller, I'm pretty sure it's harbour, although I kind of know how to use astra, and I barely know how to use omen or brim
For initator, I only have sova and im bad at him lmao
-this is coming from an iron 3 who got this game only a month ago
It was a great guide but can you make a new and improved omen guide it will be helpful and useful to play now he is in meta
playing kj makes it alot easier for me as a newbie (bronze 3) to hold site and keep enemies away giving my team enough time to rotate to me.
Thank you 😊
QOTD: Very Nice agent to play but has a lot of effort.
Any solution to remove tempoaray suspension of an year
Change mother board of you computer xD
Best agent in the game.
I feel like kj and all sentimentals (except chamber) really have been power crept kj buffs please 🙏
Lol sentimental. It's sentinel
@@musix9940 pretty sure he got autocorrected lol
im so bad at using her im trying my best but idk how to use her tools at all
0:43 Silver players I queue up against say otherwise (144 damage with the turret)
I’d rather have a bad killjoy than a bad cypher, but a good cypher beats a good killjoy
not really, cuz a good kj makes it impossible for the opponents to take site. You can't really say that for a cypher, cuz cyphers role is to gather info (traps, camera, ult), wherase kj has nanos which can prevent the enemies from planting the spike.

Can you have a cypher guide too
Killjoy is really my play style also she cute also a engineer main in tf2
me who plays omen and kay/o and has no plan of selecting kj: interesting
"Killjoy is broken"
Riot: what's that? Another reason to nerf chamber? I see i see
QOTD: killjoy feels pretty weak tbh, haven't seen kj in a long time in my games.
QOTD: when they reduce the speed of the enemy when my bot shooting
Look how they massacre my bot
she's basically engineer gaming with a weaker turret
Kill joy is very good for defense so if you want an offense agent don’t get kill joy
Hold up...Alarmbot doubles what damage?
All damage
Skye next please
2 letters: Op
tbh i think you can use the ‘util on one place to get a kill’ once or twice a half. just because they won’t expect it and i you can get back sight together. on pistol rounds it’s even better. i can get 1 or 2 kills by only util :)
as much as i love kj , sage is the most iconic sentinel, just sayin
i am fan of argen Frost
who all like his tips and tricks.❤
i main kj so i guess its good

1st view and like :)
Ccccc
i hate that u can destroy the nanoswarms🥲 i been playing her a lot lately, shes so fun
then don’t place ur nanos in the same spot lol
