Mastering Gekko’s Ultimate: Should You Walk or Run in Valorant?

Gekko’s ultimate ability is a major advantage, giving players fast movement and new ways to play. But how you use that speed is key to winning. A recent discussion highlighted that while it feels natural to walk during the ultimate, it can actually limit your ability to quickly engage in fights and gain a strategic edge. Many players agreed that the ultimate is meant for covering ground rapidly, something walking doesn’t allow. One player explained that you want to maximize the distance covered for your team, and sprinting is the best way to do that. When moving through areas like bomb sites, using speed to control encounters is vital, and walking can slow down the fast pace Gekko’s ultimate provides.
