Valorant: Introducing Your New Agent, Tejo

Meet Tejo, the newest addition to Valorant’s line-up of Agents. This stylish Initiator hails from Colombia, and he’s all set to bring fresh tactical flair, especially for players who thrive on strategic gameplay. Tejo’s abilities focus on gathering intel, capitalizing on explosive tactics, and disrupting enemy positions with concussive effects. If you’ve got a knack for reading opponents and outsmarting them, this new Agent might just be your ticket to victory. The best part? Game Pass members can unlock Tejo without extra fuss.

Tejo sums it up perfectly: "This should be simple enough. I flush them out. You finish them." His toolkit encourages a proactive approach, demanding players to assess situations on the fly while paving the way for their squad with precision.

His arsenal includes:

• Stealth Drone: Deploy a disguised drone that emits a small sonar wave, uncovering enemy positions.
• Guided Salvo: Launch missiles that detonate twice, forcing adversaries out of advantageous spots.
• Special Delivery: This grenade sticks to targets upon contact, finishing with a concussive blast.
• Armageddon: Trigger a devastating chain of explosions, directing opponent movements to your advantage.

Tejo works best with teammates ready to exploit the openings he creates. Let’s dig into his abilities:

Stealth Drone
Whether on attack or defense, the Stealth Drone offers a tactical edge, especially on corner-heavy maps. Unlike traditional tools, Tejo’s drone is cloaked at long distances, providing crucial enemy intel without immediate retaliation.

Game Designer Ryan Cousart explains, "We wanted the drone to give tactical suppression, not just information. That’s why players may favor it over other options."

Guided Salvo
So why missiles? According to Cousart, simply because "rockets are sweet." They not only complement Tejo’s strategic role but visualize game dynamics that require players to think several steps ahead, coordinating team movements like a well-oiled machine.

Tejo’s toolkit revolves around three essential outputs: data gathering, enemy damage, and disruption through concussive tactics. Cousart notes, "Balancing these effects requires precision, and while damage stands out, it’s vital we evaluate its influence continuously."

Special Delivery
Cousart describes this ability as a "Let’s fight" button, designed for spontaneous combat initiation. Unlike his other skills that demand thoughtful setup, Special Delivery allows Tejo to swiftly engage foes, working both as an offensive and engagement tool.

Armageddon
This ultimate power demands respect, as it can alter the course of play in an instant. Keeping tabs on his ultimate charge is crucial since the ensuing chaos from these blasts can redefine the battleground, giving Tejo’s team a clear path to capitalize.

Players can benefit greatly from learning Tejo’s abilities, especially those with a strategic eye. While Valorant’s Agents remain accessible to Game Pass users, mastering Tejo’s art of disruption will set you apart. As Tejo aptly puts it, "We can stand around all day talking about killing them… or we just do it." Dive into the action and make your mark before others catch up!
