Top 5 Best New Valorant Skins in March 2021
5. Infantry Spectre

The new skin collection’s offerings share a World War 2 theme with classic designs. It is a big change from the usual futuristic weapon designs Valorant is known for. The skins looks like is came straight out of a classic Battlefield or Call of Duty game and is one of the best new Valorant skins that you can pick up.
4. Magepunk Electroblade Melee
Price: 1775 VP
The electroblade melee is one of the best new Valorant skins from March 2021. It looks like it was inspired by Dishonored and offers the right mix of steampunk with futuristic elements. It is a great skin to show off and is better than most other melee skins out there.
3. Infantry Operator
Price: 875 VP
The iconic long-range weapon features a cloth-wrapped skin, making it look like it came from the World War 2 era. If you want a classy skin that has its own charm while being subtle, the Infantry Operator is a solid pick.
2. Magepunk Ghost
Price: 1775 VP
The Magepunk Ghost with the Level 7 upgrade is one of the most aesthetically pleasing new Valorant skins from March 2021’s releases. While the Ghost might not be the best weapon in the game, the skin is very beautiful and a must-have if you love the Magepunk theme.
1. Infantry Ares
Price: 875 VP
While the Ares and Odin get a lot of hate from players at times because they are “noob friendly”, there is no denying that the Infantry Ares skin is a sight to behold. Riot Games took a leap of faith with the entire Infantry collection and added skins that are a far cry from what you would expect from most Valorant skin releases. While heavy weapons might not be the best in the meta, the Infantry Ares is a very subtle and elegant skin for fans of the weapon.
