What Is Bloom in Valorant?
Bloom in Valorant refers to the way a gun's accuracy decreases when you shoot it continuously. Essentially, the more you spray without pausing, the less accurate your shots become, because the bullets start to 'bloom' outwards, away from the crosshair center. This mechanic encourages players to shoot in short bursts or tap shoot for better accuracy, especially at longer distances.

It's the game's way of punishing you for holding down the trigger too long. If you don't want your bullets to host a party in every direction except where you're aiming, learn to control your spray!
Honestly, bloom is just a fancy term for 'your aim gets bad if you spray'. Tap or burst fire instead!
