Valorant has introduced a new duelist, Waylay, who significantly increases mobility compared to recent agents. Waylay utilizes prismatic energy to hinder enemies and control space. However, success in Valorant requires strong teamwork, and optimal team compositions are essential to maximize Waylay’s ability to push through enemy lines. Have you just started to try her out and need the best team-ups? Keep reading as our guide will outline the best Waylay team compositions in Valorant that you should consider to improve your competitive rank.
1. Waylay, Omen, Breach, Tejo, Killjoy
The meta in Valorant is such that the waves can shift direction anytime. With the maps revolving around a fast attack, Waylay’s abilities make her one of the best picks. And to complement that fast charge, you will need quick map control.
As such, Omen is a great ally for Jett and there is no doubt that he will work great with Waylay too. With Omen, you can set up blinds for a quick entry for the prismatic duelist. To add more, you can get Breach in the team. Breach is one of the most underrated Valorant agents who contributes greatly to the team’s support.
And as we are talking about the meta, it will be unfair if we don’t include Tejo. If Breach supports the team, Tejo can be the attacking initiator. With guided missiles and scouting abilities, Tejo can clear corners easily so Waylay can enter without hesitation. For the defensive side of the actions, Killjoy is ideal for this team composition. As the team is based on aggression, you will need passive information and Killjoy’s alarm bot and sentry are perfect for that job. You can sit back in a site while Waylay and others force enemies in the other areas of the map.
2. Waylay, Tejo, Raze, Brimstone, Phoenix
As Tejo is already the meta, there is no question that he will be featured multiple times in this team composition list. Waylay lacks firepower in her abilities and Tejo’s abilities are ideal to balance that out.
Want more firepower? Get Raze in the team, and now you have two entry duelists. With Raze, you can deal heavy damage in every round. This creates more space for Waylay. You can also combine the Hindering debuff from Waylay’s abilities with the Raze’s paint shells for free kills.
Brimstone can be the solid support of the team. With the solid smokes, Waylay can easily take over the site. Steam beacon can also be the perfect boost. With the team having two duelists who enter well, one with flashes can be perfect. Phoenix is currently one of the best flash agents thanks to his replenish. This will make the peek potential easier for this Valorant team composition.
3. Waylay, Tejo, Jett, Clove, Vyse
Clove entered Valorant two agent updates before, and they are still one of the unique and unexplored agents in the game. Clove can work like Omen, but they come with some duelist capabilities. Given that both Clove and Waylay can throw debuffs, their combination is impeccable.
Tejo is the perfect pick for amplifying the debuffs. His guided missile damage will instantly destroy enemy lines if they are under decay or hindering effects. The composition is aggressive, and to make it even more, you can get Jett as well. Yes, double the aggression.
Having a Vyse in the team will give you both defensive and attacking support. The only downside of this best Valorant team composition is the lack of flash and concuss. However, the combination of Waylay and Vyse will work wonders for that part.
4. Waylay, Harbor, Gekko, Omen, Sova
Jett is always the first choice in the Valorant’s best team composition, but it changes with Waylay. That is made right when you have solid support around her. This comp is especially for bigger maps where you must cut the site for Waylay to get entry safely.
Harbor can create a wall to make it easy for the charismatic duelist to enter the site. However, Harbor armored smoke makes a perfect combination for Waylay. In tricky situations, it can help her survive longer. To maximize the use of Harbor abilities, Gekko can throw flash above the walls or plant or defuse spike using wingman.
As Harbor plays the supportive smoke role, Omen can be the flex. With better site control, Omen and Waykay can clean the house easily. To make the job easier, get a Sova and use him for better information.
Bonus Waylay Team Composition: Play All Entry Duelists
As we did for the Tejo team compositions, here is the all-duelist strategy for Waylay. Yes, I know, there are eight duelists. Then which one to choose from? As we already know, Waylay is one of the ‘site entry’ duelists, so we will include them only in this composition.
For starters, Jett and Raze are no-brainers for the team. Jett is the most self-sufficient duelist in Valorant. She is swift and one of the strongest for a long time. Raze is the alternative to Jett in shorter maps but packs a more fire-powered punch. As the team composition misses out on flash, Phoenix and Yoru could work. We prefer Phoenix as he is a more utility-based duelist in the game.
Phoenix can also stay behind in certain rounds to play the backlines. In that case, get Neon and make it a peaceful attack. No team can easily counter it with Waylay, Jett, Raze, and Neon running together.
That concludes our list of the best team compositions for Waylay in Valorant. Which one is your favorite? Do you know a better one? Do tell us in the comments below.
