Arguably, this is the most 'failed' debut in the history of this game.
Not long ago, the global VALORANT community buzzed with discussions when Riot introduced Iso. Known as the 23rd agent in the game, Iso is a Duelist with unparalleled skills. Compared to most predecessors, Iso can effectively handle opponents solo or in pairs. Additionally, he can create armor, shields, induce weakness, and significantly impact any team composition at the current moment.

However, after nearly 3 months of intense battles on all servers, Iso holds the title for the agent with the most devastating win rate among all Duelists. According to tracker.gg, Iso (46.1%) ranks at the bottom of the win rate leaderboard, just above the robotic KAY/O (45.9%). This figure is disappointing, especially for a newly debuted agent. Furthermore, Iso faces a chilly reception with a mere 2% pick rate, losing to Reyna almost 6 times, as she confidently scores with an 11.9% pick rate.

The rankings also indicate that Iso, KAY/O, and Harbor are the three 'menacing gods' threatening victory for all team compositions at every rank. For Duelist roles, players should avoid Yoru and Neon, with win rates below average at 47% and 48% respectively. On the contrary, first-generation warriors like Reyna and Phoenix continue to demonstrate extreme effectiveness.
However, Duelists are not the optimal choice for players seeking easy victories in VALORANT. Conversely, the new Sentinel character class showcases stability and is the most trustworthy. Among them, the trio of 'atomic' agents - Sage, Cypher, and Killjoy - stands strong through numerous updates, thanks to their highly versatile abilities.

Overall, this is a disheartening outcome for Iso. Perhaps, his overly daring playstyle is leaving players 'breathless' and struggling to synchronize accurately to unleash their full potential.
