Valorant will soon have Team Deathmatch mode

Team Deathmatch is a very fun game mode to have. Almost every FPS game has this mode already. Now devs have revealed in their Dev Diary that they will be introducing Team Deathmatch or in short TDM mode in Valorant.

Currently, you play individually in Deathmatch despite of whether someone is in your party. Deathmatch serves as a game mode where players head in for a pre-match warmup. Every pro player suggests spending almost 20-30 minutes in Deathmatch before hopping into competitive matches. It helps beginners to learn crosshair placement and good movement while playing Valorant.

Generally in TDM, 2 teams fight each other but in a deathmatch-type environment. The main aim is to score the combined target kills before the opponent team. According to the popular insider ValorLeaks, players will be able to use abilities in TDM and will have to score 100 combined kills in order to win.

It isn’t surprising that this mode is highly anticipated by the Valorant community.
