What Does Thrifty Mean in Valorant?

One of the most common questions many new Valorant players have when starting out with the game is, “What does ‘Thrifty’ mean in Valorant?”

If you’ve been playing Valorant for a while, chances are you’ve already come across the occasional ‘Thrifty’ round in your ranked games. However, do you know what a ‘Thrifty’ round means?

When you hear the announcer say ‘Thrifty’ at the end of a round, it implies that the winning team has spent significantly fewer credits on their economy for the round compared to the enemy team.

For instance, if one team full-buys with rifles and full armor while the other team manages to win the round with only Sheriffs and Classics, that round will be a ‘Thrifty’ win for the latter team.

If you’re looking for the exact numbers, the team that wins a ‘Thrifty’ round must have spent less than 2500 credits in that round.

‘Thrifty’ is a common occurrence during the second rounds of each half, where the team that loses the pistol round is usually extremely low on economy. 

In a competitive shooter like Valorant, managing your economy effectively is crucial for success. Mastering the art of smart money management can not only significantly improve your gameplay, but it can also help you win more games and boost your ranks.

Pulling off a ‘Thrifty’ round win is no easy feat, but if you succeed, it can provide a significant boost to your economy while leaving your opponents’ economy in shambles
