Valorant Champions 2022 was the second world championship for Riot Games' tactical shooter Valorant, held in Istanbul and won by LOUD. Its official anthem, Fire Again by Ashnikko, was released for the tournament and used across broadcasts, trailers and arena shows. Clips from the event and its music spread quickly through YouTube, TikTok and esports edits, where the sound became shorthand for top-level Valorant competition. It remains popular for montages because it instantly signals a final, a trophy run and the highest level of play.
About this sound
The official anthem clip from Valorant Champions 2022, the world championship tournament. Players use it for esports edits, montages and clutch highlights.
This 21-second clip captures the high-energy sound of Valorant Champions 2022, built around a driving electronic beat, rising synths and a defiant vocal hook made for a world final. It feels intense and cinematic rather than funny, swelling quickly to create pressure before a big play. Listeners instantly associate it with packed arenas, team walkouts and last-round tension. Dropped over gameplay, it turns an ordinary round into a championship moment, signalling skill, confidence and stakes. The short length makes the build and drop easy to recognise even without any visuals at all.
