Following her Valorant debut in Episode 4 Act 3, Fade quickly became one of the favorite Initiator Agents. Her abilities can apply debuffs like Decay and Deafen on enemies while her signature Reveal skill, Haunt, is useful for checking corners in Maps like Bind and Sunset. Fade players can also pull off excellent ability combinations by coordinating with their teammates.

5 Best Valorant Agent Pairs With Fade
One of the best Initiators in the game, Fade finds good play with most Duelists. Players who use her as their ‘main’ need to collaborate with their team to get the best results on the battlefield. Listed below are the top five Valorant agents to duo with Fade.
Raze & Fade
Fade and Raze make one of the best Valorant agent pairings. Thanks to her Initiator abilities, Fade locates enemy players with Haunt (E-ability) and could also disrupt their movement with Seize (Q-ability). Raze can follow it up with abilities like Boom Bot following which the Duelist can launch an offensive. The trails created by Fade’s ‘Haunt’ and ‘Seize’ also help Raze use her Ultimate: Showstopper effectively as she can fire her rocket launcher for guaranteed eliminations.
Neon & Fade
Neon and Fade can collaborate to create a super-effective ability combination in Valorant from their Ultimates. Fade’s Nightfall sends a wave of nightmare energy in the targeted direction and affected enemies are Marked, Decayed, and most importantly, Deafened. They won’t be able to hear Neon approaching at high speed (footsteps) and she can swiftly eliminate the enemies with bursts of lightning from her Overdrive Ultimate.
Reyna & Fade
Both Fade and the menacing Reyna are Valorant’s darkest characters. They also make a great duo, with Fade revealing enemy positions after which Reyna can use her blinding skill (Leer) to take the role of an entry fragger. The ensnaring abilities of Fade could facilitate quick eliminations from Reyna and the girl duo who thrive in darkness can be a stuff for nightmares for the enemy team.
Chamber & Fade
Chamber has one of the most impressive voicelines while activating his Ultimate. However, the Frenchman needs an Initiator like Fade to reveal enemies before he can place his crosshair at the right position and snipe opponents with pinpoint accuracy. His Headhunter (Q-ability), in which he equips a pistol with a sight, could also come in handy when Fade is successfully revealing enemies with Haunt.
Omen & Fade
Omen’s shadow projectile from Paranoia (Q-ability) can be easily sidestepped. This is where Fade’s Prowler (C-ability) comes into play. The projectile can lock onto enemies and Nearsight them, rendering them unable to dodge Paranoia, after which both can eliminate the helpless enemy. Teams often choose the trio of Reyna, Omen, and Fade because of their dark synergy in Valorant.
You can add Fade to your roster after unlocking her with 60000 Kingdom Credits or 1000 Valorant Points. To get accustomed to her skillset, select the Agent in the Practice Range.
