So You Want a Fancy Banner in Valorant, Huh? A Guide for the Discerning Duelist (and Everyone Else)
Let's face it, in Valorant, everyone wants to look fly. Sure, gun skill is important, but if you're rocking the default banner, you might as well be yelling "Hey everyone, look at this noob!" But fear not, fellow fragger, for this guide will illuminate the path to banner brilliance!
Tier 1: The Freebie Fanatics
- Agent Contracts: Grind those Agent Contracts! As you level up your favorite characters, you'll unlock snazzy banners along the way. Just be warned, some contracts require more dedication than surviving a Phoenix flashbang.
- Random Acts of Riot (Games): Keep your eyes peeled for occasional free giveaways from Riot Games. They might throw some banner bones your way during events or special occasions. Just don't expect a free Radianite Rifle skin anytime soon.
Tier 2: The Battle Pass Barons
- The Glorious Grind: The trusty Battle Pass is a reliable source of banners, both free and premium. Although, some free tiers look about as exciting as a Raze satchel that fizzled out.
- The Calculated Credit Card Cavalier: If you're feeling flush with Valorant Points (VP), you can grab the premium Battle Pass for a wider selection of banners. Remember, great banners come at a price (and that price might be your dignity after whiffing a Vandal spray across the map).
Tier 3: The Discerning Deal Hunters
- Night Market: This mysterious marketplace occasionally pops up, offering discounted weapon skins and, you guessed it, banners! It's like a clearance rack for your virtual ego.
- Bundle Bonanza: Keep an eye out for weapon skin bundles. Sometimes, they come with bonus banners as a way to tempt you to spend more money. Just remember, self-control is a valuable weapon in this economic warfare.
Bonus Round: The Artistically Adept
- DIY Delight: If you're feeling creative, you can always design your own banner using graphic design software. Just make sure it doesn't violate any copyright laws (we wouldn't want you to get banned for rocking the Mona Lisa on your profile).
Remember, Recruit: The most important banner is the one you earn through sheer skill and dominance on the battlefield. But hey, a little extra flair never hurt anyone (except maybe your opponent's feelings). So get out there, frag hard, and don't forget to look good doing it!
