A few questions from a first time competitive Valorant watcher!

Hey, everyone! I'm watching the Valorant Championship in Berlin and had a few doubts, and I thought I would ask around here!

  1. I believe there are 15 agents is Valorant, right? Is the agent distribution not suited for unique agents for each team? Pretty much every game I watched, we have the same 3 or 4 champions in both teams.

  2. Is some agents just straight up better than others? I know that there are different classes of agents, but it seems that the same agents picked every game are just above every one else in terms of potential.

  3. What are your thoughts on Valorant maps? I've played both CSGO and Valorant (keep in mind I'm really bad mechanically in both games), but I always had a feeling that Valorant maps have a excessive number of angles to check per position and each map gimmicks are overused (What I mean by this is that, for example, the map with three bomb sites seems to be underdeveloped in order to emphasize the three-bomb-sites idea. Does that make sense?)

  4. Does the agent picks consider which map the game is going to be played?? Because I didn't see much variety on team composition despite the teams playing in different maps. It seems a downside to the competitive scene, where the possibility of off-metas picks never really happen.

Thanks a lot!
