The best sidearm in VALORANT is only as good as you are

In VALORANT, players across all ranks have a selection of five different sidearms to use, from the Classic to the Sheriff. Yet one of the best sidearms at the top ranks of VALORANT is also one of the hardest to master, considering its nature as a very short-range weapon. 

The Shorty, a sawed-off shotgun with two shots per reload, has grown in popularity at the top ranks thanks to its cheap price, usability in close-range, and flexibility with specific agents. The VALORANT dev team knows the strength of it, though, and plans to nerf the Shorty in Patch 6.11. That won’t change the fact that Radiants have already improved so much with the Shorty that it has become the most-used sidearm at the rank, with a high 0.8 kills per round and an average of 84 damage, according to stats site Blitz.gg.
