Yoru’s Fakeout ability in VALORANT provides an incredibly fun and effective counter to Iso’s powerful ultimate. While Iso’s Kill Contract may seem overpowered at first, Yoru’s Fakeout can trick the Chinese fixer and turn the tables in a hilarious way. By deploying the clone at the same time Iso activates his ultimate, he will be trapped in a dimension with a fake enemy, leaving him vulnerable to an easy kill upon his return to reality.
However, successfully executing this counter requires some guesswork and timing. It’s not always easy to predict when and where Iso will use his ultimate. Nevertheless, knowing this interaction can be a valuable tool for VALORANT players.
One effective strategy is to employ this counter in post-plant scenarios, particularly when you are the last player alive against Iso. Place the Fakeout clone near the Spike or in a location where the enemy would expect you to be, then quietly move away from the site. As soon as you hear Iso announce “It’s You and Me,” activate the clone and hope that he falls for it. This can lead to a humorous and satisfying outcome.
It’s important to note that using Yoru’s Fakeout as a counter to Iso’s ultimate is challenging and requires quick thinking. If Iso activates his ultimate while you are holding a position, there may not be enough time to react and send in the clone to avoid being caught.
Despite its limitations, the existence of this counter adds an enjoyable dynamic to the game. Yoru mains are likely to embrace this strategy once Iso enters VALORANT in Episode Seven, Act Three.
