Meet every map (12)

These 12 maps load into the maker above. Each write-up covers what the map is and what to weigh when you rank it. Facts were last checked on .

  1. Ascent

    The fourth standard map released. Its signature feature is a mechanical door in front of each spike site, which can be closed with a switch and destroyed, as each has 500 HP.

  2. Bind

    A standard map available since the Closed Beta. It has no mid section and uses two one-way teleporters, one linking A Short to B Short and one linking B Long to A Lobby.

  3. Haven

    A Closed Beta map and the first with a third spike site, which does not change its two ultimate orbs. Destructible panels in Mid, each with 400 HP, cover the doors to Garage.

  4. Split

    A Closed Beta map set in Tokyo's Shinjuku district, and the first map to use ascenders. There are three sets, plus four that let players move through the Vents.

  5. Icebox

    The fifth standard map released, at a Kingdom Corporation container port in the Arctic. The first with horizontal ziplines, and the first where the plant site has different levels of elevation.

  6. Breeze

    The sixth map released, on a mysterious island in the Bermuda Triangle with a radianite mine beneath a beached cargo ship. An automatic door in Mid Hall opens with a loud audio cue.

  7. Fracture

    The seventh standard map, split into four neutral quadrants. Attackers spawn together and can cross to the other side on ziplines that run beneath the defenders' spawn.

  8. Pearl

    The eighth standard map, set in a geodesic dome on the Portuguese coast of Omega Earth. It is a traditional two-site, three-lane design with no dynamic elements or mechanical hooks.

  9. Lotus

    The ninth standard map and the game's second three-site map, with rotating doorways, a silent drop from A Top to A Drop and a rope ascender at the back of A Site.

    Source ↗

  10. Sunset

    The tenth standard map, set in Los Angeles. A traditional two-site, three-lane map with one extra feature, a mechanical door between B Market and Mid Courtyard that can be destroyed.

    Source ↗

  11. Abyss

    The eleventh standard map, and the first with no outer boundaries and a death drop in Mid, so players can fall off the map. Some parts can only be reached by jumping across the drops.

    Source ↗

  12. Corrode

    The twelfth map, set in Mont-Saint-Michel on the coast of Ω-Normandy, which has become a radianite salt mining facility. It is the second map without dynamic elements or mechanical hooks.

Valorant Maps tier list questions

Are all of these maps in the competitive pool?

No. Riot rotates maps in and out of the competitive pool between acts, so the write-ups describe each map's design and say nothing about the current pool. Check the game for the active rotation.

Why is the Range not on the list?

The Range is a practice area, not a competitive map. This list covers the standard maps that are or were played in matches.

How should I rank Valorant maps?

Common criteria include layout, callouts, fairness for attackers and defenders, fun and how well your favorite agents play on them. Many players rank by how much they enjoy playing each map.
