Y'all think VCT should incorporate agent bans for the games. it does get boring to see the same agents played every game with slight variation. They can do like 1 agent ban per team per game so in a BO5 by the 9th game there are 9 agent bans. Maybe they can even take inspo from the superior Riot Game League of legends which have fearless draft but maybe when they have at least like 30 more agents.

Food for Thought.

Yeah that would make it more interesting, they’ll probably add agent bans when the agent pool is larger

val is very prep based. If someone bans a certain agent it might completely change how you play a map. It doesn't suit the game I think, at least for now

No fearless doesn't work in any game that isn't a moba stop trying to push it and agent bans are bad because it relies on agents being quite similar which defeats the point of them existing in the first place

Not agent bans but fearless where they can't pick the same agent two times in a row(More agents would be needed for this though)

as a chamber main who's just usually static holding angles, hitting a headshot while sliding is actually pretty hard ngl

i like this idea its a good alternative to the usual ban systems in most games

agent bans are just a shit solution to a problem that can be solved by balancing the game better

Maybe but idk how fun it would be to watch with the small roster so far. Ngl I just want a tourney to do a draft agent selection so the games have 0 mirrors. Or even one where you could timeout and switch agents once or twice, I think it would be fun even as a small off season thing

If they do that both teams will have 2 bans and if they add bans some ppl will be getting drop from teams

yeah, games like overwatch or r6 have an agent ban system because you can swaps agents each round/whenever to adjust accordingly, same system just wouldnt work in valo
