After weeks of waiting, Riot Games has officially unveiled Hush in Valorant, shedding light on her full kit and offering players a glimpse at what she might bring to the game.
For the unaware, Hush is Valorant’s newest Duelist who is set to join the game’s roster in the near future. She hails from China and features a unique set of abilities centered around telekinesis and crowd control.
She is also equipped with a passive ability and is the second character in the game to feature one after Jett.
Without further ado, let’s check out all the abilities of Hush in Valorant.
Valorant Hush Abilities Explained
Here’s the full list of abilities for Hush in Valorant, as officially revealed by Riot Games:
Telekinesis (Passive)
Telekinesis allows Hush to interact with weapons, the Spike, and switches from an increased range, potentially giving her more flexibility during rounds.
Ability description:
Hush can pick up weapons, the Spike, and INTERACT with switches from an increased range.
The ability could prove useful in situations where players need to retrieve weapons or interact with switches without approaching them directly.
Displacement (E)
Displacement is a crowd-control ability that lets Hush throw a projectile at enemies that, upon exploding, pulls players toward its center and concusses them if they hit a surface or another player.
Ability description:
FIRE to throw, ALT FIRE to prep, REACTIVATE to direct towards crosshair. Explodes on impact or after a delay, pulling players to center and concussing them if they hit a surface or another player. REFRESH every TWO kills.
The ability’s pulling effect could help Hush disrupt enemy positioning and create opportunities for her teammates to follow up. This is Hush’s signature ability.
Flashbulb (C)
Flashbulb gives Hush access to a projectile that can blind opponents. Players can throw it immediately or prepare it before redirecting it toward their crosshair.
Ability description:
EQUIP Flashbulb, FIRE to throw, ALT FIRE to prep. REACTIVATE to direct towards crosshair. Explodes on surface or delay flashing players.
Flashbulb could help Hush challenge opponents holding tight angles or disrupt defensive setups. Its ability to detonate on a surface or after a delay also gives players flexibility when deploying the flash.
Flow (Q)
Flow introduces a new movement mechanic that allows Hush to create an anchor and propel herself toward it after a delay.
Ability description:
INSTANTLY create an anchor. If Hush is in the air, briefly levitate in place. After a delay, propel towards it.
The ability offers Hush additional movement options when taking engagements.
Ultimate: Suspension (X)
Suspension is Hush’s ultimate ability and appears to be one of the strongest parts of her kit. It allows her to launch a steerable projectile before detonating it to levitate all players caught in its effect.
Ability description:
INSTANTLY prepare Suspension, Fire to send it forward, steering with your crosshair. REACTIVATE or press FIRE again to detonate, levitating all players.
Players can steer the projectile using their crosshair and choose when to detonate it. Once activated, Suspension levitates all players caught in its effect, disrupting enemy formations and creating opportunities for coordinated team pushes.
Valorant Hush Release Date
The exact release date of Hush in Valorant has not been confirmed by Riot Games at the time of writing. She is expected to join Valorant’s roster at some point during the next few weeks.
However, there’s also a possibility that players may have to wait for the next Act to be able to greet Hush in Valorant, which is in roughly two months.
