Reyna vs Sova Fragging Analysis

Reyna wins fragging stats against Sova in Valorant

Reyna edges out Sova in a competitive fragging comparison, winning 3 of 5 metrics with notable advantages in KDA efficiency, kill production, damage output. With only a 3-2 margin based on 183 matches analyzed, this Reyna vs Sova matchup remains contestable for both sides. Sova 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 Sova's favor.

KDA
1.38Reyna
1.26Sova
Reyna holds a slight KDA edge in this matchup, recording 1.38 compared to Sova's 1.26. While this 0.11 point difference indicates Reyna tends to come out ahead in engagements, the gap remains small enough that skilled Sova players can overcome it through superior positioning, utility timing, or simply winning crucial aim duels. The data suggests Reyna's kit may offer marginally better tools for securing kills while staying alive, but Sova players shouldn't feel disadvantaged when taking fights in this matchup.
Avg Kills
17.2Reyna
13.7Sova
The kill differential between Reyna and Sova is dramatic: 17.2 versus 13.7, representing 3.5 additional kills per game for Reyna. This massive gap shows Reyna consistently dominates the kill feed when these agents meet. For Sova players, this data suggests a fundamental mismatch in direct combat scenarios. Success against Reyna requires reimagining your role — become the setup player, the information gatherer, the utility specialist — rather than trying to match Reyna's fragging output head-to-head.
Avg Deaths
15.5Reyna
15.0Sova
Sova survives longer in this matchup, dying 15.0 times per game compared to Reyna's 15.5 deaths. This 0.5 death difference per match means Sova is available for more rounds, contributing to late-round scenarios and clutch situations more frequently. Reyna players should examine their positioning and aggression timing — the data suggests Sova's approach to these duels results in better survivability outcomes.
DMG/Round
153.1Reyna
131.3Sova
The damage differential between Reyna and Sova is exceptional: 153.1 ADR compared to just 131.3. Reyna deals 21.8 more damage per round on average, indicating absolute dominance in direct combat exchanges. This level of disparity suggests Reyna's kit, typical playstyle, or positioning patterns give them massive advantages in dealing damage while Sova struggles to even trade effectively. Sova players should treat Reyna as a must-avoid duel and focus entirely on non-combat contributions or utility-based damage.
Headshot %
32.6%Reyna
33.3%Sova
Sova lands headshots at a slightly higher rate (33.3% vs 32.6%), providing a modest but meaningful advantage in time-to-kill during duels. This 0.6 percentage point edge translates to Sova more frequently one-tapping or two-tapping opponents before Reyna can fully react. Reyna players should counter this by avoiding predictable angle holds, using movement to throw off Sova's crosshair placement, and prefiring common positions to negate the accuracy gap.

Attack Side Breakdown

Reyna demonstrates a modest attack-side advantage over Sova in this matchup, converting 49.8% of attacking rounds versus 47.1%. While this 2.8 point edge gives Reyna slightly better site-taking capability, the gap remains narrow enough that skilled Sova players can overcome it through superior execution and team play.

The data from 183 competitive games suggests Reyna'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, Sova 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 2.8% gap.

When taking entry duels, Reyna holds a slight statistical advantage but nothing that should change fundamental approach. Sova 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. Reyna can play slightly more aggressively on entries, knowing the statistics marginally favor them.

In post-plant situations, Reyna's slight advantage likely stems from better utility for denying defuses or controlling retake angles. Sova 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 2.8 point gap can be neutralized through smart post-plant fundamentals.

Defense Side Breakdown

Reyna shows slightly better defensive capabilities than Sova, winning 52.9% of defense rounds compared to 50.2%. This 2.8 percentage point edge suggests Reyna's kit provides marginally better tools for CT-side play, though the gap remains small enough for skilled Sova players to overcome.

When deciding site assignments, Reyna can slightly more confidently take solo anchor roles. Their 2.8% defensive advantage likely stems from better stalling utility, superior information gathering, or more effective site-holding positions. Sova 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.

Reyna demonstrates marginally better retake capability in this matchup. Whether through superior clearing utility, better post-plant positioning, or stronger clutch mechanics, Reyna converts retakes at a slightly higher rate. Sova should focus on retaking with numbers — don't take hero 1v1 retakes against Reyna when you can wait for teammates. Reyna can be slightly more confident in isolated retake situations, knowing the statistics marginally favor them.

On eco and force buy rounds, the 2.8% gap becomes more pronounced as utility advantages compound. Sova should be more conservative with eco aggression against Reyna and prioritize saving for full buys where team utility can compensate for individual disadvantages. Reyna can play slightly more aggressively on force buys, knowing their defensive kit provides small but meaningful advantages even with limited economy.

Overall Side Analysis

Reyna holds clear advantages on both attack (49.8%) and defense (52.9%), establishing themselves as the superior choice in the Reyna vs Sova matchup regardless of map side. This consistency across both halves means Reyna doesn't need to play for specific sides or rely on winning a particular half to succeed.

Reyna's advantage holds across all map types and team compositions. Whether on attack-sided, defense-sided, or balanced maps, Reyna performs better. Sova teams should consider compositions that can cover their weaknesses — pair Sova with strong fragging agents who can carry during their difficult matchup encounters, and ensure utility supports Sova's positioning.

For ranked climbing specifically, Reyna is the objectively better pick in this matchup. If you're equally comfortable on both agents and frequently face this matchup, practicing Reyna provides a measurable ranked advantage. Sova players should focus on team play, utility value, and avoiding direct Reyna confrontations rather than trying to outfrag them.

The verdict is clear: Reyna wins this matchup on both sides of the map. The combined 5.6 percentage point advantage across attack and defense represents a meaningful statistical edge. Sova isn't unplayable, but faces an uphill battle requiring stronger team support and more disciplined play to compete.

Duelist vs Initiator Dynamics

The Duelist (Reyna) vs Initiator (Sova) dynamic creates asymmetric encounters where each agent brings fundamentally different tools to engagements. Reyna's Duelist abilities serve different purposes than Sova's Initiator kit, meaning direct fights often feature non-equivalent utility exchanges.

Understanding how Duelist abilities interact with Initiator counterplay is essential for maximizing your agent's potential. Reyna's Duelist toolkit may excel at certain aspects while Sova's Initiator kit counters others. The Reyna advantage suggests their role's capabilities translate better to winning these cross-role encounters on average.

Reyna has favorable matchups against 13 agents and unfavorable matchups against 12 agents in Valorant. Reyna's strongest matchup is against Breach with a 71.4% win rate.
