Every figure shows its source. Where a source is missing, the number is a placeholder — and it is never written as fact.

Act 5 · Patch 13.06

Breeze

Wide open · Huge sites

Space control beats angle holding — there is too much of it to watch.

2 sites · 23 published callouts · outside the pool. Rewards Controller · Initiator.

Both defaults, and the buy

Attacking
Take space slowly with utility rather than crossing it fast.
Defending
Give ground and retake with numbers.
First buy
Buy long-range damage first — there is too much space for a rifle-only default.
Utility
Smoke the space you cannot watch, not the space you intend to cross.

Say it in three

Way in
A Lobby
Plant zone
A Site

All of A: Bridge · Ramp · Lobby · Shop · Site · Pyramids. Callout names are Riot’s own; the reduction to three is ours.

Breeze on video

Published by VALORANT on YouTube, 23 April 2021.

5 years old. VALORANT has been patched since, so watch it for how the kit plays, not for numbers — the rest of this page is written for the current patch.

It plays in YouTube’s own player once you press play. Nothing is downloaded or re-hosted here, and nothing loads from YouTube until then.

  3. 3Hold A alone and time how long the rotation takes to reach you.1 min
  4. 4Retake through B Back — the route the defence uses.1 min

What the library can do here

The library holds no setup on this map yet — a gap, drawn rather than filled.

A tested starting point

No composition is written for this map — the seven in the Competitive pool have one each, and this is not one of them.
