Everyone Will be Using Gekko on Bind: Wingman Trick Lets You Plant Across Maps, Leads to Hilarious Valorant Plays
Gekko’s ability to use his little companion Wingman for planting or defusing the spike in Valorant has been a game-changer for the game. And players have found a trick with Wingman on Bind. Gekko players have recently found a hilarious and effective trick to use Wingman creatively on the desert map.
By throwing Wingman to plant the spike right as you enter the teleporter from the A site outside of Hookah, Gekko players can have Wingman sprint back to the A site to plant. This makes for a funny little sight, but it’s also a neat trick to fool the enemy team.

The trick is made even more powerful by Wingman’s ability to both scout and plant. While the enemies are focused on defending or retaking a site, Wingman can stealthily rush in and complete the spike plant. This makes Gekko one of the better initiator agents.

With Bind’s teleporters, this technique is even more effective, allowing Gekko to switch locations quickly while Wingman is on the long run back to the site.
To do this trick, Gekko players need to enter a teleporter while releasing Wingman at the same time. The timing is crucial. If done correctly, Wingman will sprint through the teleporter and continue to the planting site, while Gekko remains safely on the other side.

This tactic has been perfected by many players, turning Wingman into a high-speed delivery system for the spike. Players describe the sound of Wingman zipping through teleporters as almost comical, likening it to a “super-speed” rush as he hurries to plant.

Pulling off this Wingman trick requires practice and precision. The timing of throwing Wingman and teleporting must be perfect, or the ability won’t work as intended. Some players suggest heading into custom games to get the rhythm down before trying it in competitive matches.
The Meta Really Favors Gekko Right Now So Make Use of It
Wingman’s trick works particularly well in coordination with other agents. For example, agents like Sage or Harbor can provide cover with their walls or utility, allowing Wingman to safely plant while the enemies are distracted. Gekko is a great pick for the current meta.

The possibilities for team plays and synergies are endless, making this trick not just something you do for fun but possibly a team strategy. Imagine your whole team teleports and forces the enemy team to rotate off of the site only for them to find out that Wingman planted it on the site they just left empty.

With the right setup, Gekko and Wingman can dominate a round, especially on maps like Bind where rotations can make or break a match. And this is just one of many situations where the agent shines.
Gekko’s Wingman has plenty of potential across other maps as well. Players are experimenting with different ways to use the little companion in high-pressure situations.
The ability to send Wingman into dangerous areas without risking a player’s life makes Gekko a highly desirable agent for teams looking to take a more strategic approach to their matches.
