What Exclusive tier means
Exclusive is one of the content tiers in VALORANT.
Tier sets the price band and the ceiling on effects, not the art style — a Select skin can look better than a Premium one, it just carries less behind it.
About the Melee
Melee skins are the most visible cosmetic in the game — your knife is on screen every time you have it out, and it is the one slot every player sees on inspect.
There are 174 Melee skins in the game, so this is one of the more contested slots to dress.
