53.0%Vyse

The Neon vs Vyse matchup in Valorant is a moderately favorable matchup. Based on 57 competitive matches analyzed, Neon wins 52.6% of the time compared to Vyse's 47.4%, a 5.3 percentage point difference. The most significant gap is in headshot accuracy, where Vyse consistently outperforms. In this Duelist vs Sentinel matchup, Neon has meaningful advantages in this agent head-to-head.

Neon vs Vyse Fragging Analysis
Vyse edges out Neon in a competitive fragging comparison, winning 3 of 5 metrics with notable advantages in KDA efficiency, survivability, headshot accuracy. With only a 3-2 margin based on 57 matches analyzed, this Neon vs Vyse matchup remains contestable for both sides. Neon 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 Neon's favor.
Avg KDA
1.24Neon
1.31Vyse
The KDA comparison between Neon and Vyse reveals an exceptionally tight contest, with Neon averaging 1.24 and Vyse posting 1.31. This razor-thin margin of just 0.06 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
16.5Neon
15.6Vyse
Neon secures approximately 1.0 more kills per match than Vyse in this head-to-head (16.5 vs 15.6). Over the course of a typical 20+ round game, this translates to Neon contributing several additional eliminations to their team's efforts. The gap indicates Neon's playstyle or kit provides slightly better kill-securing opportunities, though Vyse can compensate through superior utility assistance, site anchoring, or clutch performances.
Avg Deaths
17.2Neon
15.0Vyse
The death disparity between Vyse and Neon is stark: 15.0 versus 17.2 deaths per game. Neon dies 2.2 more times per match on average, fundamentally impacting their ability to influence rounds. This suggests Neon either takes unfavorable fights against Vyse or lacks the tools to disengage safely. Neon players must completely rethink their aggression patterns — prioritize information and utility over kills, always have an exit plan, and never take coin-flip duels against Vyse.
DMG/Round
139.8Neon
137.0Vyse
Damage output per round is essentially equal between Neon (139.8 ADR) and Vyse (137.0 ADR). This parity indicates both agents apply similar pressure in firefights and contribute comparably to wearing down enemy health pools. When these agents face off, neither can rely on superior damage output to swing rounds — instead, the deciding factors become headshot consistency, timing of engagements, and coordination with teammates' utility and damage.
HS %
22.3%Neon
31.8%Vyse
The headshot percentage disparity between Vyse and Neon is substantial: 31.8% compared to 22.3%, a 9.5 point difference. Vyse consistently displays far superior aim precision in this matchup, turning potential trades into clean kills and surviving encounters that would kill less accurate players. For Neon, challenging Vyse in a fair aim duel is statistically unwise. Success requires creating unfair fights — off-angles, utility combinations, multi-person pressure — where Vyse's aim advantage cannot fully manifest.

Attack Side Breakdown
The attack-side comparison between Neon and Vyse reveals near-perfect parity, with Neon winning 47.0% of attacking rounds compared to Vyse's 47.2%. This negligible 0.2 percentage point difference indicates neither agent possesses inherent advantages when executing onto sites or pushing through chokepoints. When these agents meet on attack, success depends almost entirely on team coordination, execute timing, and individual mechanical skill rather than agent kit superiority.
From a tactical standpoint, neither Neon nor Vyse should adjust their standard attacking approach based on this matchup. Both agents can run their typical execute patterns, default rotations, and lurk timings without worrying about a statistical disadvantage. The data from 57 matches suggests that whichever player has better game sense, utility timing, and raw mechanical aim will win attack-side encounters — there's no agent-based shortcut to victory here.
For entry fragging specifically, both Neon and Vyse players can confidently take the first duel when executing onto sites. Neither agent's abilities create meaningful first-contact advantages over the other, so entry success comes down to crosshair placement, pre-aim quality, and jiggle-peeking technique. Whether you're playing Neon or Vyse, approach site entries with the same confidence you'd have in any other matchup.

Post-plant scenarios in this matchup are similarly balanced. Neither agent demonstrates superior spike defense or retake denial capabilities against the other based on our attack-side data. When the spike is down, focus on standard post-plant fundamentals: positioning for crossfires, using utility to delay defuses, and communicating enemy positions to teammates. The 0.2% difference is small enough to be statistical noise rather than a meaningful advantage.

This 0.2 point margin indicates both agents contribute equally when anchoring sites, retaking, or denying post-plants. Neither possesses defensive utility advantages significant enough to swing matchup outcomes.
Both Neon and Vyse can anchor sites with equal effectiveness in this matchup. Whether holding A, B, or mid on any map, neither agent's defensive kit provides meaningful advantages over the other. Site anchor decisions should be based on map knowledge, team composition needs, and personal preference rather than matchup considerations. The 0.2% difference is too small to influence site assignment choices.
Retake scenarios are similarly balanced between Neon and Vyse. Neither agent demonstrates superior retake utility, post-plant clearing ability, or clutch potential against the other based on our defensive data from 57 matches. When retaking against either agent, focus on standard retake fundamentals: utility to clear common spots, coordinated timing with teammates, and trading effectively. Don't adjust your retake approach based on whether you're facing Neon or Vyse.
Economy decisions and utility usage shouldn't change based on this specific matchup during defense. Both agents have comparable force buy success rates, full buy conversion, and utility effectiveness against each other. Make economy calls based on team needs and general defensive principles rather than Neon vs Vyse specific considerations. Your standard defensive utility timing and placement will be equally effective regardless of which agent you're facing.
Overall Side Analysis
Vyse maintains a consistent but slim advantage across both sides of the map in this matchup, with 47.2% attack win rate and 53.0% defense win rate. While Vyse is statistically favored regardless of map side, the margins are close enough that Neon remains highly competitive and can win games through strong individual performance.
Map choice and team composition have minimal impact on this specific matchup outcome. Both agents perform similarly across attack-sided, defense-sided, and balanced maps. Pick based on personal comfort, team needs, and broader composition considerations rather than Neon vs Vyse specific factors. The slight Vyse advantage doesn't change based on external factors.
For ranked climbing, don't overthink this matchup. The statistical differences are small enough that individual skill, team coordination, and game sense remain the primary factors determining outcomes. Focus on improving your fundamentals on either agent rather than trying to gain edges through matchup knowledge. Both Neon and Vyse are viable ranked picks with minimal matchup disadvantage.
Bottom line: this is one of the more balanced agent matchups in Valorant. Vyse has a slight statistical edge, but Neon is absolutely viable and can win through skill. If you're comfortable on Neon, don't switch to Vyse just for this matchup — the difference is too small to justify changing your agent pool.
Duelist vs Sentinel Dynamics
The Duelist (Neon) vs Sentinel (Vyse) dynamic creates asymmetric encounters where each agent brings fundamentally different tools to engagements. Neon's Duelist abilities serve different purposes than Vyse's Sentinel kit, meaning direct fights often feature non-equivalent utility exchanges.
Understanding how Duelist abilities interact with Sentinel counterplay is essential for maximizing your agent's potential. Neon's Duelist toolkit may excel at certain aspects while Vyse's Sentinel kit counters others. The Vyse advantage suggests their role's capabilities translate better to winning these cross-role encounters on average.
