Fade vs Reyna Fragging Analysis
Reyna edges out Fade in a competitive fragging comparison, winning 3 of 5 metrics with notable advantages in kill production, damage output, headshot accuracy. With only a 3-2 margin based on 277 matches analyzed, this Fade vs Reyna matchup remains contestable for both sides. Fade shouldn't feel outgunned — the statistical gap is narrow enough that individual skill, positioning choices, and in-game decision making can easily swing specific encounters in Fade's favor.
Avg KDA
1.41Fade
1.33Reyna
The KDA comparison between Fade and Reyna reveals an exceptionally tight contest, with Fade averaging 1.41 and Reyna posting 1.33. This razor-thin margin of just 0.08 demonstrates that neither agent has a systematic fragging advantage in this matchup. When facing each other in ranked games, success depends almost entirely on individual player mechanics, crosshair placement, and split-second decision making rather than any inherent agent kit advantage. Players on either side should approach these duels with confidence, knowing the statistical playing field is level.
Avg Kills
14.7Fade
16.7Reyna
Reyna substantially outfrags Fade in this matchup, averaging 16.7 kills compared to 14.7 — a difference of nearly 2.1 eliminations per match. When Reyna faces Fade, the data clearly shows Reyna finding more fragging opportunities and converting them into kills. Fade players should recognize this statistical reality and adjust their approach: play more supportively, focus on enabling teammates, and avoid ego-challenging Reyna in situations where your team doesn't need you to take that duel.
Avg Deaths
14.6Fade
15.9Reyna
Fade demonstrates markedly better survivability against Reyna, recording 14.6 deaths per game versus 15.9. Dying nearly 1.3 fewer times per match gives Fade significantly more impact potential — more opportunities for multi-kills, more presence in clutch rounds, and more economic stability from staying alive. Reyna players face a survival deficit that compounds throughout a match, making disciplined positioning and smart disengagements crucial.
DMG/Round
130.4Fade
148.6Reyna
Reyna significantly outdamages Fade in head-to-head encounters, posting 148.6 ADR versus 130.4. This 18.1 damage-per-round advantage means Reyna consistently wins the damage exchange in firefights, either securing kills outright or leaving opponents weak for teammates to clean up. Fade players should avoid prolonged dueling with Reyna — instead, look for quick picks with burst damage weapons or rely on ability damage and team crossfires to compensate for the raw gunfight disadvantage.
HS %
30.3%Fade
32.9%Reyna
Reyna demonstrates notably superior headshot accuracy against Fade: 32.9% versus 30.3%. This 2.5 percentage point gap in precision means Reyna ends gunfights faster, conserves more ammo, and wins more 50-50 duels where both players see each other simultaneously. Fade faces a real disadvantage in aim duels and should compensate through utility, positioning, or weapon choices that don't require headshot precision (shotguns, Odin spraying through smokes, etc.).

Attack Side Breakdown
Fade demonstrates a modest attack-side advantage over Reyna in this matchup, converting 48.9% of attacking rounds versus 46.7%. While this 2.3 point edge gives Fade slightly better site-taking capability, the gap remains narrow enough that skilled Reyna players can overcome it through superior execution and team play.
The data from 277 competitive games suggests Fade's kit provides marginally better tools for attack-side scenarios. This could manifest as slightly more effective entry utility, better post-plant stalling, or superior mid-round adaptability. However, Reyna teams shouldn't dramatically alter their attacking approach — instead, focus on tightening execute timing, coordinating utility chains more precisely, and ensuring trades are happening when entries fail. Small improvements in team coordination can easily overcome a 2.3% gap.
When taking entry duels, Fade holds a slight statistical advantage but nothing that should change fundamental approach. Reyna players should still take confident entries when they have good information or utility support. The key adjustment is ensuring you're not taking unnecessary 50-50 duels — look for angles where you have an advantage through utility, information, or teammate support. Fade can play slightly more aggressively on entries, knowing the statistics marginally favor them.

In post-plant situations, Fade's slight advantage likely stems from better utility for denying defuses or controlling retake angles. Reyna should compensate by being more deliberate about post-plant positioning — take spots that offer escape routes or trade potential rather than hero plays. Stack post-plants with teammates when possible, and use utility efficiently to maximize delay time. The 2.3 point gap can be neutralized through smart post-plant fundamentals.
Defense Side Breakdown
Fade shows slightly better defensive capabilities than Reyna, winning 53.3% of defense rounds compared to 50.9%. This 2.3 percentage point edge suggests Fade's kit provides marginally better tools for CT-side play, though the gap remains small enough for skilled Reyna players to overcome.
When deciding site assignments, Fade can slightly more confidently take solo anchor roles. Their 2.3% defensive advantage likely stems from better stalling utility, superior information gathering, or more effective site-holding positions. Reyna should consider pairing with a teammate on their site rather than solo anchoring, or taking positions that allow early rotates rather than committing to extended holds. The advantage is small but worth considering in close games.
Fade demonstrates marginally better retake capability in this matchup. Whether through superior clearing utility, better post-plant positioning, or stronger clutch mechanics, Fade converts retakes at a slightly higher rate. Reyna should focus on retaking with numbers — don't take hero 1v1 retakes against Fade when you can wait for teammates. Fade can be slightly more confident in isolated retake situations, knowing the statistics marginally favor them.
On eco and force buy rounds, the 2.3% gap becomes more pronounced as utility advantages compound. Reyna should be more conservative with eco aggression against Fade and prioritize saving for full buys where team utility can compensate for individual disadvantages. Fade can play slightly more aggressively on force buys, knowing their defensive kit provides small but meaningful advantages even with limited economy.
Overall Side Analysis
Fade holds clear advantages on both attack (48.9%) and defense (53.3%), establishing themselves as the superior choice in the Fade vs Reyna matchup regardless of map side. This consistency across both halves means Fade doesn't need to play for specific sides or rely on winning a particular half to succeed.
Fade's advantage holds across all map types and team compositions. Whether on attack-sided, defense-sided, or balanced maps, Fade performs better. Reyna teams should consider compositions that can cover their weaknesses — pair Reyna with strong fragging agents who can carry during their difficult matchup encounters, and ensure utility supports Reyna's positioning.
For ranked climbing specifically, Fade is the objectively better pick in this matchup. If you're equally comfortable on both agents and frequently face this matchup, practicing Fade provides a measurable ranked advantage. Reyna players should focus on team play, utility value, and avoiding direct Fade confrontations rather than trying to outfrag them.
The verdict is clear: Fade wins this matchup on both sides of the map. The combined 4.6 percentage point advantage across attack and defense represents a meaningful statistical edge. Reyna isn't unplayable, but faces an uphill battle requiring stronger team support and more disciplined play to compete.
Initiator vs Duelist Dynamics
The Initiator (Fade) vs Duelist (Reyna) dynamic creates asymmetric encounters where each agent brings fundamentally different tools to engagements. Fade's Initiator abilities serve different purposes than Reyna's Duelist kit, meaning direct fights often feature non-equivalent utility exchanges.
Understanding how Initiator abilities interact with Duelist counterplay is essential for maximizing your agent's potential. Fade's Initiator toolkit may excel at certain aspects while Reyna's Duelist kit counters others. The Fade advantage suggests their role's capabilities translate better to winning these cross-role encounters on average.
