Valorant Tejo guide: How to use the Stealth Drone

Tejo's Stealth Drone is a useful tool for clearing corners and gathering information about certain parts of the Lotus map. It is fully controlled, similar to Sova's Owl Drone; however, unlike Sova's drone, it not only detects but also disables enemies (much like Cypher's Camera). Activating the drone and pressing the fire button generates a pulse that suppresses and exposes several targets.

Tejo is vulnerable to attacks while operating the drone, so make sure to deploy it from a safe spot.

Valorant Tejo guide: How to use Guided Salvo

Tejo uses an AR (Augmented Reality) targeting system similar to Brimstone’s Pad, allowing him to launch missiles at up to two selected locations on the map. By using ALT FIRE, the missiles autonomously travel to the designated spots and detonate upon impact.

This ability can be combined with Neon’s Relay Bolt or Breach’s Fault Line to concuss enemies in place and inflict heavy damage. Additionally, Guided Salvo is highly effective for destroying traps laid down by any enemy Cypher or Killjoy.
