How Pearl is laid out
Pearl has 2 spike sites — A & B. Mid control is the hinge: take it and you can threaten either site, which forces defenders to commit before they know where you are going.
The 26 callouts below are the official region names from the game files, so they match what your team already says — no community aliases, no invented shorthand.
Why callouts matter
A callout is a shared name for a piece of the map, and its whole job is speed. Saying “one A Main” lands instantly; describing a location does not, and the round is usually decided in the time that takes.
Learning them per map is the cheapest improvement available to most players — it costs no mechanical skill and immediately makes every round of information you gather useful to four other people.

Which agents professionals pick on Pearl
Measured across 1,820 professional tournament games played between 2026-05-22 and 2026-08-20. Map-specific picks are where professional VALORANT differs most from ranked — a team's composition on one map often looks nothing like their composition on another, and this is that pattern rather than a general tier list.
| Agent | Pick rate | Win rate | Times picked |
|---|---|---|---|
| Astra | 19.6% | 50% | 278 |
| Phoenix | 13.5% | 49.7% | 191 |
| Fade | 11.9% | 45% | 169 |
| Neon | 8.9% | 50% | 126 |
| Jett | 7.7% | 49.1% | 110 |
| Killjoy | 7.1% | 61.4% | 101 |
| Sova | 6.8% | 59.8% | 97 |
| Chamber | 4.9% | 43.5% | 69 |
Pick rate is the share of the ten player slots in a game that this agent filled. Win rate hovers near 50% for almost every agent because professional matches are between evenly matched teams — a figure far from 50% usually means a small sample rather than a strong agent. Maps with too few games to be meaningful are left out entirely rather than shown with a warning.
