Valorant Tier List and Most Played Agents in August 2024
The Valorant Tier List splits the agents in four tiers based on their popularity at Radiant. Find out the most played agents by rank in August 2024.
Based on popularity. The tier list is based exclusively on the popularity of an agent at Radiant. The win rate has no effect on the tiers, but it is included to determine the most outstanding characters in a particular tier.
No pro data. The performance of an agent when used by pro players and teams doesn’t influence the tiers as I wanted to create something useful for us ranked players.
The requisites for each tier never change. The tiers are viewed as clusters of data, and each agent is placed in the one they are closer the most. The goal is offering a neutral comparison that shows how the meta evolves over time.
No personal opinions. I hope that my statistical-based approach is a good attempt to provide a reliable list for all the casual and ranked players.
Finally, Riot released their API for Valorant, so starting from December 2020 I will provide official agent pick and win rate data based on the whole player base.
There are several websites that gather and share these data, and after examining the most reliable ones, I concluded that there are almost no differences among their tools.
This tier list contains matches played at Radiant in August 2024 during Episode 9. I will update it monthly with fresh data.

Data from previous months
Note on the data before December 2020
Riot has not released an API to access the data of all players in the game. However, there are several websites that gather data from their users, and I decided to utilize the statistics provided by Blitz as it is the most popular one. The Radiant rank is not considered because of the very low number of matches recorded, which would not provide reliable data.
