These are all the abilities for new Valorant agent 19, Neon

Fariha Bhatti Published 07/01/2022

Valorant’s very own supersonic hero, Neon, has finally arrived. She’s quick, fierce, and shoots laser blasts from her fingers.

It’s well-known that Valorant agent 19 Neon draws her power from light, but we now have exact details about Neon’s abilities. The thunderous heroine will join the squad on January 12, and Jett players should gear up for a major shift as a result.

“Everything about Neon came back to that feeling of running forward and moving fast. A lot of her design was inspired by athleisure clothing, sprinting gear, and a runner’s physique,” Valorant game designer Ryan “rycou” Cousart said.

All abilities for Valorant agent 19 Neon

Neon is duelist number six in Valorant, and she bears the tag 19. Here’s everything Neon can do with her bioelectric kit, with details on all of her new abilities.

(E) HIGH GEAR

Channel Neon’s power for increased speed. When charged, press alternate fire to trigger an electric slide. The charge resets every two kills. During her high gear ability’s duration, Neon gains supernaturally high speed, outpacing other agents in Valorant. She gains this ability from her radianite-infused bioelectric charge.

So far, only Jett can fly across the map. Neon will bring a new sliding feature for the first time in Valorant, potentially outpacing Jett’s speed.

(Q) RELAY BOLT

Throw an energy bolt that bounces once. The bolt electrifies the ground below with a concussive blast upon hitting each surface. It works like Breach and Astra’s shock, making the enemy’s vision hazy. Neon can use this ability like a molotov to slow down her opponents.

(C) FAST LANE

Fire two energy lines forward on the ground that extend a short distance or until hitting a surface. The electric lines rise into walls of static electricity once triggered, which block vision and damage any enemies passing through them.

These walls work exactly like Pheonix’s barrier, only Neon does it better. Instead of a single border, Neon creates a tunnel of oceanic bioelectricity. Any enemies that pass through the lightning walls get electrocuted.

(X) OVERDRIVE

Unleash Neon’s full power and speed for a short duration. Fire to channel her fuel into a deadly lightning beam with high accuracy. The timer resets with each kill.

When Neon is in her ultimate ability, she draws all her power into the tips of her fingers, firing laser blasts to whoever dares come her way. Neon unleashes all of the excess radianite-infused bioelectric charge she’s stored up in her battery-pack mechanism strapped to her back.

The agent will be available to play starting January 12.
