Overview of Clove agent abilities
Clove was introduced on March 24 during Masters Madrid. The agent teaser was supposed to happen during a show match an hour before the final showdown between Team Spain and Team International. It was during this time that the new character Clove was supposed to be revealed. However, as always, leaks thwarted the developers' plans, forcing them to release the trailer prematurely. The agent itself became available on all servers starting from March 27.
As previously mentioned, Riot Games developers have gathered some of the best qualities from other agents and merged them into the new character, Clove.
Clove agent abilities:
- MEDDLE (Q): Charge up to release a fragment of immortality. Fire to throw the fragment, which explodes after a short delay, temporarily paralysing all enemies in its radius.
- RUSE (E): Activate to scan the battlefield. Press again to indicate the location of Clove's clouds. An additional button for confirmation to deploy clouds that obscure visibility in the selected areas. Clove can use this skill after their death.
- PICK-ME-UP (C): Instantly absorbs the life force of a fallen enemy Clove damaged or killed, gaining speed and temporary health regeneration.
- NOT DEAD YET (X): Activates resurrection upon death. After resurrection, Clove must achieve a kill or deal damage within a certain time, otherwise, they will die again.
How to unlock the new agent Clove in Valorant
First Method: Participate in the Clove Recruitment Event:
For players preferring a free alternative, participating in the Clove Recruitment Event offers the opportunity to unlock them without spending money. Accumulate two hundred thousand experience points within the first month after the agent's release to meet the requirement. Engage in various game modes, complete tasks, and regularly play matches to earn the necessary experience.
However, this method remains effective only until April 24th, so if you haven't unlocked the agent by participating in the event, don't worry, as we've prepared other options for you to acquire this agent for your collection.
Second Method: Spend "Royal Credits"
After the conclusion of the Clove Recruitment Event, players can choose to unlock them using "Royal Credits" (KC). Accumulate 8000 KC by completing daily missions and other in-game tasks to recruit the agent. This method requires patience and consistent gameplay to gather a sufficient amount of credits, but it provides a cost-effective way to add Clove to your agent collection.
Third Method: Use Valorant Points
The fastest way to acquire Clove is to purchase them with Valorant Points (VP). For 1000 VP, approximately equal to 10 dollars (prices may vary depending on the region), players can instantly unlock the agent. Simply navigate to the Agents section in the game interface, select Clove, and choose the hire option for VP. Keep in mind that this transaction is non-refundable, so ensure the character suits your playstyle before making the purchase.
Fourth Method: Subscribe to Xbox Game Pass
Xbox Game Pass subscribers have an alternative way to access Clove. By linking their Riot Games account to their Xbox account, subscribers instantly gain access to all agents, including the new one, as soon as they appear in the game. However, maintaining this access requires an active Game Pass subscription.
Conclusion
Whether opting for instant access with Valorant Points, participating in the Recruitment Event, accumulating "Royal Credits," or using Xbox Game Pass, each method provides a relatively easy path to obtain the new agent Clove for your arsenal. Choose the method that best fits your budget to start conquering competitive modes with this agent.
