Attack Side Breakdown

Iso significantly outperforms Raze on attack side, achieving a 58.5% round win rate versus 52.1%. This 6.5 point disparity reveals Iso as the clearly superior offensive agent in this head-to-head, with advantages that Raze cannot easily overcome through individual skill alone.

Based on 4 matches analyzed, Iso dominates attack-side scenarios through multiple vectors. Entry success rate, post-plant conversion, and mid-round adaptability all favor Iso significantly. Raze teams must make structural adjustments to their attack approach: rely less on Raze for key fragging roles, design executes that minimize Raze's direct engagement with Iso, and consider how team composition can cover Raze's offensive weaknesses. Simply "playing better" isn't enough to overcome a 6.5% gap.

Raze should avoid entry fragging roles against Iso whenever possible. The data clearly shows Iso wins a disproportionate share of first contacts on attack. Raze players should volunteer for support roles — flashing for teammates, trading entries, or lurking to create map pressure without direct Iso confrontation. If forced to entry, wait for maximum utility support and ensure a trade is guaranteed. Iso can and should take aggressive entries, knowing statistical backing supports confident play.

Post-plant scenarios heavily favor Iso in this matchup. Raze struggles to convert spike plants into round wins at the same rate, whether due to weaker defuse denial, inferior retake resistance, or less effective post-plant positioning. Raze teams should never leave Raze alone in post-plant — always have teammates nearby for crossfires and trades. Consider giving the spike to a different player when possible. Iso should recognize their post-plant dominance and play for spike aggressively after site takes.

Defense Side Breakdown

Iso substantially outclasses Raze on defense, achieving 47.9% round wins compared to 41.5%. This 6.5 percentage point gap indicates Iso excels at core defensive tasks — anchoring sites, gathering information, stalling executes, and contributing to retakes — at a level Raze cannot match.

Raze should never solo anchor against Iso. The 6.5% defensive gap makes isolated site holds extremely unfavorable for Raze. Instead, pair Raze with a teammate, give them off-site positions that allow early rotates, or have them play supportive roles that don't require extended site holds. Iso should actively anchor difficult sites, knowing their defensive capabilities significantly exceed Raze's.

Retake dynamics heavily favor Iso. When Raze needs to retake against Iso, success requires overwhelming numbers and utility coordination — never attempt equal-number retakes and absolutely avoid solo retakes. Iso should play post-plant positions confidently, knowing Raze struggles to clear them effectively. In clutch scenarios, Iso has a significant statistical edge that Raze cannot overcome through individual skill alone.

Economy management becomes critical for Raze in this matchup. Force buying against Iso is mathematically unfavorable — the defensive gap compounds when utility is limited. Raze should advocate for full saves, ensuring full buy rounds have maximum utility to compensate for their defensive disadvantages. Iso can confidently force buy, knowing their defensive kit provides advantages that partially compensate for economic disadvantages.

Overall Side Analysis

Iso demonstrates commanding superiority on both attack (58.5%) and defense (47.9%), comprehensively outperforming Raze across all phases of the game. Based on our analysis of 4 competitive matches, this is one of the more one-sided agent matchups in Valorant, with Iso holding advantages at every stage.

Map selection and team composition cannot fix Raze's disadvantage in this matchup. Iso outperforms across all map types and team structures. If you're playing Raze into Iso, your team composition needs to compensate heavily: strong fragging agents to carry Raze's weight, utility-heavy supports to cover their positioning, and coordination to avoid leaving Raze in isolated Iso encounters.

For ranked climbing, avoid playing Raze when you expect to face Iso frequently. The 12.9 combined percentage point disadvantage across both sides is too large to overcome through individual skill improvement. If Iso is meta in your rank bracket, strongly consider adding them to your agent pool or playing agents that have more neutral matchups.

Final verdict: Iso decisively wins the Raze vs Iso matchup. This isn't a skill check or a "play better" situation — Iso has systematic advantages that manifest across thousands of games. Raze players facing Iso should adjust expectations, play more supportively, and recognize that direct confrontations are statistically unfavorable at every stage of the game.

Duelist vs Duelist Dynamics

Both Raze and Iso fill the Duelist role in Valorant team compositions. This role mirror means teams won't face composition issues from having both agents — the question is purely which Duelist performs better in direct competition. Our data clearly indicates Iso is the stronger Duelist pick when these agents face each other.

In Duelist vs Duelist encounters, similar ability timing and usage patterns mean both agents often use their kits in comparable ways. The winner typically comes down to which player uses their abilities more efficiently and wins the mechanical duels that follow. Iso's statistical advantage suggests their specific Duelist kit translates slightly better to winning these mirror encounters.
