VALORANT: How to Play Reyna

by | Sep 20, 2023 | Guides - Valorant

Reyna is a fierce hunter seeking her opponents’ hearts despite being suspicious of her allies and an angel to them. Reyna poses a tremendous threat in one-on-one battles because of her insatiable need for life.

Reyna’s immortality is fashioned by her executions and is based on a powerful shooting ability. In order to maintain her heartbeat, she must ensure that her adversaries are eliminated.

Is Reyna the Right Agent For You?

Strengths:

  • A double edge sword kit that could dominate rounds
  • Great for solo queued players

Weaknesess:

  • Aim dependent abilities
  • Vulnerable agaisnt long ranged weapons/abilities

Reyna Abilities

Leer

EQUIP an ethereal, destructible eye. ACTIVATE to cast the eye a short distance forward. The eye will Nearsight all enemies who look at it.

Devour

Soul Harvest: Enemies Killed by Reyna leave behind Soul Orbs that last 3 seconds. Devour: INSTANTLY consume a nearby soul orb, rapidly healing for a short duration. Health gained through this skill exceeding 100 decay over time. If Empress is active, this skill will automatically cast and not consume the Soul Orb

Dismiss

INSTANTLY consume a nearby Soul Orb, becoming intangible for a short duration. If Empress is active, also become invisible.

ULTIMATE – Empress

INSTANTLY enter a frenzy, increasing firing, equip and reload speed dramatically. Gain infinite charges of Soul Harvest abilities. Scoring a kill renews the duration.

The Road to A Reyna Main

The Vampire Duelist

Yes, you heard it right. Reyna is probably the most self-reliant agent due to her abilities. Her main shtick is to go out there and kill enemies, challenge aggressive angles and keep up her health to stay longer in the round. Reyna’s Leer ability allows her to ignore friendly blinds and entry on site without fear.

Her dismiss ability enables her to peek angles without getting hit, especially when she has her empress ability active. Use that oppurtunity to move to different angles and catch enemies off guard.

Aim First, Kill Later

Reyna’s double edge sword kit makes her very aim dependent. Meaning, you have to be good with your aim if you really want to contribute a lot to the team. Although it is evident that you need to be able to aim in a shooter game, but no other agent relies heavily on it except Reyna. If 6 rounds have passed and you see yourself that you are standing on the bottom of the board, you might want to take some rounds in the practice range first.

Best & Worst Maps for Reyna

Raze’s abilities such as the Boombot is a fantastic resource on Haven maps that should allow you to evict players from any of the different hiding places on the bomb sites. Her Showstopper also becomes considerably more perilous because of the numerous little hallways and tight curves.

Best

  • Ascent
  • Haven

Worst

  • Breeze

And that should be it. If you want to learn more about other agents as well, check our Agent Guide List
