Valorant Site Executes and Default Rounds
Valorant executes fail when five players peek at once with no smoke left. Defaults that take mid and a default orb usually make the later hit cheaper.
Default for information
Spend the first 40 seconds on map control, not on a hero dash. A drone or recon dart that lives is worth a wasted flash.
If mid is free, take it. Sites are easier when the rotate is long for the other team.
Utility has an order
Smoke, then flash, then swing. Reversing that order is how you flash your own entry.
Keep one piece of utility for post-plant. A dry plant with five players alive still loses to a good retake molly.
Trade the first contact
Entry is a job, not a rank. The second player must be in a trade window, not still buying on the other side of the map.
If the first two die, play for time and info, not a miracle 3v5 peek through the same angle.
