Collection: Valorant x Filipino Weaponry
This crossover was inspired by the online FPS game "Valorant" and the community I was connected to because of it. With the release of the Neon, the first Filipino character, and because of the nature of the game, I found it fitting to reimagine Valorant agents as various Filipino weapons. After research on weapons and long days trying to grind to Silver, this collection was born. Special thanks to my Valorant Filipinx friends (Braeden, Arren, Cedd, Carl, and Kat) who pushed me to get this collection out<3
Descriptions:
Neon/Kalis: The Kalis is one of the more recognizable Philippine weapons for its wavy shape. Neon uses electricity and I can imagine currents of electric force going through the Kalis.
Sage/Karambit: The Karambit is small but easy to hold. I have seen Sage mains have this weapon LOL
Viper/Talibong: Talibong is a sword like weapon that looks like a snake. Viper=Snake
Jett/Balisong: The Balisong is known for the quick draw and cool tricks one can do to unlock it. Jett is an agent that relies on her light feet and I feel like she would be really good at the balisong.
Raze/Eskrima: Eskrima is a fiery and energetic sport and double stick weaponry that takes a lot of skill and quick reactions. Raze is often seen as the explosive agent who often shows strength in bursts of energy.
Reyna/Punyal: The Punyal has heavy Spanish influences and is a short but sharp deadly weapon. I imagine Reyna using this to dispose of her enemies in a close range before sucking their life force
Killjoy/Golok: The Golok is a agricultural and handywork tool type of weapon. Killjoy is a scientist who created tools and robots to better aid the team and keep them safe.
