The Odin is a heavy machine gun in VALORANT, and in the right hands, it is one of the deadliest weapons in the game. In this article, we’ll showcase our top ten favorite Odin skins in the game.
The Odin is a high-rate-of-fire heavy weapon in VALORANT priced at 3200 in-game credits. It is on the more expensive side compared to rifles at 2900 credits. But in the right scenario, the Odin can be one of the deadliest weapons in the game. As a machine gun, it is used to defend a site or get killed through walls. You can kill an enemy with two shots to the head or one shot to the head & two shots to the body.
The Odin also has high penetration power, a high rate of fire, and a huge magazine, making it the best gun to wall-bang enemies through to get some cheeky kills. It is common to see Sovas propped up with an Odin and using their recon arrow to spot enemies. After revealing an enemy, they can get easy kills with the Odin.
Skins in VALORANT are merely decorative and do not offer any real in-game advantages compared to the default skin. Although compared to other games like CS2, which only offer recolors of the same exact weapon, the devs at Riot went a bit overboard with the skins in VALORANT as they completely altered the look of the weapon, added special VFX, GFX, and one skin turns your weapon into a literal dragon!

There are three more color variants except for the original one. If you are a fan of the original Reaver bundles, you will also love this Reaver Odin. Especially, the iconic reload animation where it feels like you are using some black magic to reload bullets seems much more magical when you have an Odin in hand.

How to Get These Odin Skins?
Odin Skins can be obtained from a variety of sources in VALORANT. To begin, the majority of Odin skins are only available as part of specific skin bundles. For a limited time, these skin bundles are available for purchase at the VALORANT store. You can purchase the entire bundle or just the Odin skin for a fraction of the overall bundle price, and the skin will be yours to keep forever.
However, it is understandable if you did not have the opportunity to purchase a specific Odin skin when it was first released. But that doesn’t mean it’s gone for good. The skins appear in your VALORANT store at random after certain time periods. Moreover, every two months, the skins also appear at random in the Night Market. So keep an eye out because your favorite Odin skins might be waiting for you at the store or Night Market. However, because VALORANT has such a huge selection of weapon skins, it’s unlikely that you’ll find the exact skin you’re looking for there.
So, another way to get Odin skins is using the Battle Passes. VALORANT generally includes three sets of skin collections in a Battle Pass, one of which is a melee. An Odin skin is almost certainly in one of these collections. If that’s the case, you’ll have to grind through the Battle Pass tiers to get your hands on the Odin skin of your choosing.
Is it Possible to Get Free Odin Skins?
VALORANT does offer some free weapon skins from Agent Gear and Battle Pass completion. Unfortunately, all of these skins are only for pistols. For example, Sheriff, Shorty, Classic, Frenzy, or Ghost. So, there is no way to get free Odin skins in VALORANT.
So this wraps up our top 10 Odin skins in VALORANT. Note that, like all lists, this is subjective, and your personal rankings might differ from the ones we have here. You can also take a look at the best skins for other weapons in the game:
