Valorant Best Sova Arrow spots on Haven (70+)
The best Sova’s arrows on Haven. Learn the best arrow spots to gather info on the enemy positions with Recon Bolt, or to defeat them with Shock Bolt.
Beware from mobile. All the pictures are optimized, but there are about 70+ in this guide.
When explaining the arrow spots, I might use the most common callouts to indicate them.
More arrow spots:
All the arrow spots have been recorded at low graphic settings to make sure that everyone is able to use them. Note that some arrows might be harder to align at higher settings because of the added effects.
The following Haven map shows all the arrow locations explained in this guide.
Fake darts: used to recon a site from the entrance to another. They are useful to confuse the opponents and make them rotate to the wrong side.
Recon darts: used to gather info on the positions of attackers or defenders. Even when destroyed, you will still know that at least an enemy is located in that area.
Shock darts: used to defend the spike from a defuser, deal with an enemy as they plant the spike, or defeat them while they hide in common spots.
Each slide explains how to execute each arrow. Reading the instructions on the slides might be difficult from mobile, so I have transcribed the text as well. If you prefer audio over text, you can also listen to the article via the button in the intro.
