Smoker’s Playground: How VALORANT’s newest map Sunset will shift the Controller meta

“Here we go again,” a wave of annoyance ran through me as I heard players in Agent Select demanding one of us dodge the queue. This was the fifth time I ran into Sunset in a VALORANT Competitive queue, and not one time did I hear anyone speak fondly of it. And frankly, as a controller main, I think the hate is rather weird.

I love Sunset. From the music that plays in spawn to the art created by Canada and Los Angeles-based artists, Sunset is probably Riot Games’ best ideation for its tac shooter so far. But besides its beautiful outlook and the creative playstyle it nurtures, I’m most impressed with how perfect it is for controllers.
