Valorant Gekko Abilities
After some small hints from the leakers, devs revealed the entire kit and the names of Valorant Gekko abilities.
- Gekko's Dizzy (E)
Gekko equips Dizzy and fires it to soar through the air. Dizzy charges and then unleashes plasma blasts at enemies in line of sight. Enemies hit by her plasma are blinded.
When Dizzy expires, she reverts into a dormant globule which can be picked up by Gekko for another charge after a short cooldown.
- Gekko's Wingman (Q)
Gekko equips Wingman and fires it seeking enemies. Wingman unleashes a concussive blast toward the first enemy he sees.
Gekko can use alternate fire to send Wingman out to either defuse the Spike or plant the Spike. Gekko must have the Spike in his inventory to use Wingman as the planter. Gekko can retrieve Wingman after a short cooldown.
- Gekko's Mosh Pit (C)
Gekko equips Mosh Pit and can throw the projectile underhand with alternate fire or throw normally using regular fire.
Mosh duplicates upon landing and explodes after a short delay across a wide area, most similar to a KAY/O grenade.
- Gekko's Thrash (X)
Gekko equips Thrash and steers her toward the enemies. Activate to lunge and explode, which detains enemies. After Thrash expires she can be picked up to gain another charge after a short cooldown to be used once more.
