This ability is similar to a Viper molly, it has a large area of effect and can be one of the strongest utility pieces for post plants. Therefore, delaying defuses or clearing corners is the ideal scenario to use this ability.
E – Dizzy
Gekko Ability: Dizzy (E) | #VALORANT
FIRE to send Dizzy forward into the air. Dizzy charges up and sends out beams at enemies in their line of sight. When enemies are hit, they are blinded.

This is a combination of a blind and a reveal. When thrown at enemies, it locks onto and hits them in line of sight. The enemies will be blinded. In addition, Dizzy leaves an orb behind which can be picked up to deploy the ability again after a short cooldown. This ability will be crucial for entering sights.
Q – Wingman
Gekko Ability: Wingman (Q) | #VALORANT
FIRE to send Wingman forward looking for enemies. If an enemy is found, Wingman fires a concussive blast in a triangular shape to the first enemy seen.

Now Gekko’s most interesting ability. Wingman is used for many purposes. You can either plant or defuse the spike with the ability. In addition, if you do not have the spike or are not defusing, Wingman can find enemies and concuss them. The Wingman orb can also be picked up again for reuse.
X- Thrash
Gekko Ultimate: Thrash (X) | #VALORANT
FIRE to control & link with Thrash to steer her. FIRE while in the Ultimate to lunge forward and explode, detaining any enemies within their radius.

The ultimate ability Thrash is a portable Killjoy ultimate. You can control Thrash and steer her to direct her to enemies and detain them. The ability is also deployable after picking up the orb. This ability is really useful in aggressive plays or while entering sites. It is also a great post-plant utility for both attack and defense.
