In the fast-paced world of Valorant, where split-second decisions can be crucial in deciding the victory, familiarity with the agent matters the most. Agent’s usability and complexity are often decided by the time players spend in the game.
New players can find agents like Killjoy or Sage simple and easy to utilize but veterans can make these simple utilities into a winning formula. Even Max Grossman, Senior Game Designer on Valorant thinks that Killjoy is designed for players who can outsmart the opponent.

Exclusive: Rocker Melissa Etheridge will provide the musical ingredients for a stage adaptation of Mystic Pizza, the 1988 MGM rom-com that launched Julia Roberts and gave an early look at a very young, lobster-eating Matt Damon. The new production, announced today by Lively McCabe Entertainment, will be directed by Gordon Greenberg, who is co-writing the book with Sas Goldberg based on the story and characters by original screenwriter Amy Holden Jones.
“MGM’s Mystic Pizza is a seminal film for an entire generation of young people looking to distinguish themselves in a rapidly changing world,” said Greenberg. “Adapting Amy Holden Jones’ original screenplay for the stage with rock icon Melissa Etheridge, a beacon of strength and raw musical energy, and the brilliantly hilarious Sas Goldberg, is a dream collaboration on a story that is as relevant today as it was when we all first experienced it.”
Production plans and additional creative team will be announced shortly.

13 Going On 30, but it's about a gay teen wishing he was a Broadway diva and wakes up in Patti LuPone's body in 1980 and has to perform Evita 8 times a week on Broadway. It's a horror film.
