A Valorant player seems to have experienced one of the weirdest interactions in the tactical shooter, as they successfully blocked a Vandal headshot using Cypher’s Cage. The accidental save led to the Cypher player clutching the round 1v2 in a hilarious manner that has left the Valorant community laughing at the incident.
Reddit user u/Marin18 has shared his experience in a Reddit post that showcases what went down. In the clip, we can see Cypher attempting a 1v2 situation where he tries to take the B site in Bind against a Jett and a Sage. He catches Jett around the corner and disposes of her with a swift headshot.
The last remaining player in the enemy team, Sage, didn’t delay in taking the peek when she heard her teammate die. However, it seems like lady luck was on Cypher’s side.
The Cypher in the clip is seen simultaneously throwing his cage when Sage lands a headshot on him. The Vandal shot, which would otherwise be lethal, was blocked off by the cage. The shot dealt only 135 damage instead of instantly killing him, an unexpected advantage that the Cypher utilized to its fullest and gunned down the sage.
Fans have also pointed out a possibility that the Sage had shot the wall, hence reducing the damage dealt with the Cypher. However, judging by the angle of gunfire, that seems quite unlikely.
Needless to say, this sort of interaction is only observed once in a blue moon, and the chances of recreating this successfully are extremely thin.
