A Suggestion to Improve the New Player Experience

With the introduction of Harbor, Valorant has another agent to add to its roster, and the quantity of agents and abilities to keep track of can seem daunting for newer players.

​

Thus, I propose a suggestion to make learning agent abilities slightly more hospitable. Whenever you die, a tip will show providing more detail on the cause of your death, and what to look out for from the agent who killed you. This suggestion is inspired from Overwatch's death tip system, and can be turned off in settings for those who don't want it.

​

The image below shows an example of what this may look like. The goal is to make learning the game less overwhelming for newcomers, yet still requiring them to come up with their own counter-plays.

​

Let me know what you guys think.
