Frenzy’s rising pick rates in VCT hint at new pistol meta in VALORANT
The current professional VALORANT scene is seemingly nurturing a substantial deviation in the pistol meta. With a rising number of VCT teams adopting chaotic counter-strategies, pro players appear to have realized the advantages that Frenzy’s auto-fire mode and Spectre-like damage stats bring to head-on encounters, thus heavily boosting the low-cost weapon’s popularity.
Owing to its newfound popularity, the once-neglected auto pistol’s pick rates have skyrocketed across the ongoing professional and non-pro Challengers leagues. The side arm has proven to be the crux of several successful pistol and eco rounds and many astonishing clutches.
