Fracture Map Overview

Fracture flips Valorant's standard layout on its head by placing attackers on both sides of the map, surrounding the defenders who spawn in the center. Silent underground ziplines connect the two attacker halves, enabling pincer attacks without giving away audio cues. Defenders must watch approaches from multiple directions simultaneously, making communication and utility placement more critical here than on any other map.

Fracture Strategies

Attack side

  1. 1

    Fracture's unique layout lets attackers approach from two sides. Coordinate pinch attacks.

  2. 2

    Use the ziplines to rotate between attack sides quickly and catch defenders off guard.

  3. 3

    A site can be attacked from A Main and A Rope simultaneously. Overwhelm with numbers.

  4. 4

    B site has Tower and Arcade entries. Split between them for effective takes.

Defense side

  1. 1

    Fracture is attacker-sided. Play for information and retakes rather than aggressive holds.

  2. 2

    Use utility to watch both entry points per site. You'll be pinched without intel.

  3. 3

    Mid control helps you rotate faster. The underground area connects both sides.

  4. 4

    Save utility for retakes. You'll need it to take back sites from attackers.

Fracture FAQ

Fracture is one of the most attacker-sided maps in Valorant. Its unique H-shaped layout places attacker spawns on both sides of the map, surrounding defenders who spawn in the center. Attackers can approach every site from two directions simultaneously, creating constant pressure that defenders struggle to manage.

Breach, Brimstone, and Fade are top picks for Fracture. Breach's through-wall abilities clear the tight corridors from either attack side. Brimstone's three smokes and molly cover the many chokepoints, and Fade's Prowler handles the close-quarter angles throughout the map.

Unlike every other map, Fracture places attackers on both sides with silent underground ziplines connecting the two halves. Defenders are surrounded from the start and must watch approaches from multiple directions simultaneously. Pinch attacks are the default strategy, and defenders need exceptional utility placement and communication to avoid being caught in crossfires.

Fracture is the only map with four ultimate orbs, reflecting its unique dual-sided attacker spawn. Each side of the map has two orbs, giving both teams more opportunities to charge ultimates. This accelerates the pace of play and makes ultimate management a more significant strategic factor than on other maps.
