In a competitive tactical shooter like Valorant, team composition, and agent selection play a huge role in deciding the outcome of a game. The best team composition varies from season to season, depending upon the ongoing meta. Still, team composition involving Breach and Jett has been an evergreen winning combo on most maps since the release. So, without wasting time, let's look at some of the best team compositions that are viable on most maps.
Team Composition 1 - Breach and Jett Combo
- Breach
- Jett
- Astra
- Skye/Sova
- Killjoy
As mentioned earlier, the entire team composition revolves around the flash and peek combo of Breach & Jett. To make this composition work, you will need to play aggressively and frag kills.
Suitable Maps: Haven, Split, Icebox, Ascent, and Bind.
Team Composition 2 - Viper Meta
- Jett
- Cypher/Killjoy
- Sage
- Viper
- Skye
This team composition heavily relies on the ability of Viper Poison Lineups. You can pair Viper with agents like Sage to initiate plants much easier.
Suitable Maps: Split, Icebox, Fracture, and Breeze

Team Composition 3 - Balanced Lineup
- Jett
- Astra/Viper
- Skye/Sova
- Reyna/Raze
- Killjoy
The above team composition is viable against any other team composition. Just swap Raze for Reyna on larger maps like Breeze and Sova for Skye on Split.
Suitable Maps: Every map on Valorant.
Team Composition 4 - Dual Controller Meta
- Viper
- Astra
- Jett
- Sova/Skye
- Killjoy/Cypher
As the name suggests, the team composition revolves around the dual controller. It allows you to mask large parts of the map with two smoke agents and a capture site. But, you will need a lot of coordination and gun skills to make this work properly. Popular Valorant team 100T runs the dual or even triple controller META on maps like Breeze.
Suitable Maps: Breeze, Icebox, and Bind.
Team Composition 5 - KAY/O Meta
- Jett
- KAY/O
- Sova
- Astra/Viper
- Killjoy/Cypher
The newly crowned Valorant World Champion of 2021 "Acend" used the above team composition to win several of their encounters. It mainly centers around using the KAY/O knife both offensively and defensively.
Suitable Maps: Breeze, Haven, Split, and Ascent.
Team Composition 6 - Hyper Defensive Meta
- Jett
- Killjoy
- Cypher/Sage
- Astra/Viper
- Sova/Skye
The above team composition is applicable for any team that would like to take a slow/steady approach. You can easily lock down both bombsites using your sentinel agents and score points in your defensive half.
Suitable Maps: Bind, Split, Ascent, Icebox, and Fracture
Remember, you can add and remove any characters on the list with similar ones.
