Neon is one of the newer agents on the Valorant agent roster. Having made it to the game in January, Neon is already sending shockwaves just like her "sparky" personality. According to lore, Neon was the 19th agent to join the Valorant Protocol after Chamber. Although she does have some sour history with the Frenchman, it was on his recommendation that Brimstone agreed to take Neon in.

As a duelist, Neon has abilities that allow her to concuss players. The only drawback is that Neon can concuss her teammates too. Her first ability, known as the Relay Bolt, involves using the concussion grenade. This ability comes in handy when trying to check corners and enter unchartered territory. Interestingly enough, this grenade can hit two surfaces before detonating, thereby making it easy for players to check two opposite corners at the same time.

Her second ability, called Fast Lane, is nothing but a wall of bioelectricity. Earlier, this wall could do damage to anyone passing through. However, this feature has been removed for the time being. Her signature ability, known as High Gear, allows her to run at high speeds for a short duration of time. Players can also trigger a slide during this run, which resets after two kills.

Finally, with her ultimate ability — called Overdrive — active, Neon shoots a stream of electricity through her hands. If used correctly, this ability can mow down the enemy team without remorse.

Riot has also opened up about some potential tweaks to her abilities.

Neon is a fairly new agent; hence, not many players have used her that much in professional tournaments and matches. That said, here's a list of 5 professional Valorant players who've been using Neon in recent tournaments.

It would be wrong to judge f0rsakeN just on the basis of numbers. This is because he's got an impeccable sense of the maps in Valorant, which gives him an additional edge over other players while using Neon.

Paper Rex and f0rsakeN have had a wonderful run in the past couple of months, and given his current form, one can easily say that f0rsakeN is at his best right now.
