Gekko is the latest addition to the Valorant Agent pool. Episode 6 Act 2 brought-forth a brand new Initiator who can use his set of pets to assist his team in a variety of ways.

Each of his pets excels at certain tasks that make him shine as an Initiator. Some of his creatures like the Mosh Pit Molly and Dizzy can be utilized through lineups in Valorant. One can use the former to easily deny a plant or defuse a Spike in a post-plant situation. With the latter, one can quite easily detect and sabotage an enemy's vision for a short duration.

This article will feature a few Gekko lineups that the Initiator can use on Valorant's Lotus.

Gekko's utility lineups on Valorant's Lotus

The post-plant Mosh Pit will land on the default Spike plant on the B-site, making it difficult for the defenders to defuse the Spike if timed correctly.

3) C-Site

While most players are yet to discover a decent lineup for Gekko utilities, this Mosh Pit lineup for post-plant on C-Site is a decent one for attackers. You can perform this while standing at the edge of C-Main and aiming the Pit at the shown spot.

This Mosh Pit will directly land on the default plant spot, denying the defuse for defenders. One can also use this lineup to clear out Pillar while pushing into the site.

The aforementioned lineups are by far the most easy-to-use and effective on Valorant's Lotus. One can add in a few more tweaks and see if they can get better results in-game. However, it is recommended to practice these lineups in a custom game once before trying them out in a Competitive match.
