Recently, the Valorant subreddit saw a short video featuring Reyna and Skye that hit a little too close to home for many players.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-reddit wp-block-embed-reddit\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n    <blockquote class=\"reddit-embed-bq\" style=\"height:500px\" >      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/VALORANT\/comments\/12coh10\/defuse_fanmade_stop_motion_animation\/\">Defuse &#8211; Fanmade Stop Motion Animation<\/a><br> by      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/user\/TheRealBirblady\">u\/TheRealBirblady<\/a> in      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/VALORANT\/\">VALORANT<\/a>    <\/blockquote>    <script async src=\"https:\/\/embed.reddit.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"UTF-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The stop-motion animation from user u\/TheRealBirblady shows Skye and Reyna going to defuse a Spike on <a href=\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/2023\/01\/all-valorant-maps-rotation-explained\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ascent<\/a>. Reyna goes to defuse while Skye\u2019s voice lines start playing. However, something makes Reyna stop defusing and begin trolling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reyna ends up starting and stopping the Spike repeatedly. In the end, the two end up losing their team the game, and \u201cdefeat\u201d comes across the screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the stop-motion animation was brilliantly done and hilarious, the scene that plays out is all too familiar for players who solo queue. It\u2019s not that uncommon for someone to not make the defuse for silly reasons, purposefully or not.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s even pretty realistic that someone spams the defuse so that their teammate can\u2019t pull the defuse off. This is another way to throw a game or round. It\u2019s not as funny when it actually happens in a game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regardless, the quality of the video itself is amazing. It\u2019s clear that the creator spent a lot of time and effort crafting the map and figures, pulling clips of voice lines, and creating the stop-motion part. There\u2019s no lack of creativity in the Valorant community, and this just solidified that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Throwing teammates has never been funnier.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":371,"featured_media":929606,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ub_ctt_via":"","apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_is_hidden":false,"apple_news_is_paid":false,"apple_news_is_preview":false,"apple_news_is_sponsored":false,"apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":"\"\"","apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"_article_tier":null},"categories":[6,4],"tags":[271,170,180340],"internal-label":[],"article_type":[194381],"coauthors":[{"id":371,"display_name":"Brittany Alva","user_nicename":"brittanyalva"}],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Valorant-Gang-Video-Call.jpg?fit=2233%2C1257","author_info":{"display_name":"Brittany Alva","author_link":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/author\/brittanyalva\/"},"apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Valorant-Gang-Video-Call.jpg?fit=2233%2C1257","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/934641"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/371"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=934641"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/934641\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":934664,"href":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/934641\/revisions\/934664"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/929606"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=934641"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=934641"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=934641"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=934641"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=934641"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
