Fracture remains one of Valorant’s most difficult maps to play because of its unique layout, with attackers having multiple entry points to sites.
To combat aggressive attackers, we’ve decided to give all sentinel mains a helping hand by sharing the best Sage wall spots on the map.
Sage remains one of the most selected agents in Valorant, according to tracker.gg.
As Fracture is such an intimidating map, even for experienced players, having a Sage on your team that can block entryways could dissuade and delay attackers from overwhelming sites.

3 best defenders’ side Sage walls on Fracture
A Hall
The bottom half of Fracture allows attackers multiple positions to pressure and push. This is why cutting them off at A Hall is important.
Be careful of Jett, Raze, and Neon agents on the enemy team. They are three speedy duelists who can rush in and cover a lot of ground in a short amount of time. There’s a possibility that they’ll catch Sage players off-guard right before they put up the wall.
Using Sage’s wall at A Hall will delay the attackers’ push and deny them entry to A Door and A-Main. Since the top portion of the map only has one opening for attackers from A Dish, taking control of this bottom portion of the map is a solid strategy that could also aid an A-site retake if the enemy team finds a way to plant the spike on A.
B Arcade
Since the top part of Fracture only has one entryway for attackers to B-site, Sage mains could choose to hold B Arcade on their own by walling it up.
The defenders’ spawn is much closer to B Arcade, so Sage players should have no problem putting up this wall.
This Sage wall denies attackers the quickest way to the B-site. This wall will funnel the enemy team from B Tunnel towards B main, which Sage players could quickly reinforce since it is so close to B Arcade.
B Main
This portion of the map provides the most space for gunfights. Placing a Sage wall on B Main will give defenders a tactical advantage because they will be able to jump from the elevated stairs and land on top of the wall.
This will deny attackers entry to the B-site and give them a vantage point to shoot attackers who are at B Tree. The Sage wall also denies the enemy team one of the four ultimate orbs on the map.
