The latest leaks about the upcoming Valorant agent, rumored to be named “Vyse,” have generated a buzz in the community. While these details aren’t officially confirmed yet, the sources are credible, and the information aligns closely with what’s been speculated. Here’s a breakdown of the potential abilities of the new Valorant agent, a Sentinel, based on the leaked information.
Q Ability: Invisible Alarm Bot with a Twist
The first ability, referred to as the Q ability, appears to be somewhat similar to Killjoy’s Alarm Bot. This ability is said to become invisible when placed and can attack enemies, slowing them down and dealing damage. What sets it apart is that it will have two charges. While the exact stats like duration and cost are still unknown, having two charges suggests this ability could be highly versatile in various situations.
C Ability: Triggered Rising Wall
The C ability introduces an innovative mechanic that allows players to place a wall that triggers and rises when an enemy walks through it. This ability is reminiscent of Sage’s wall but with a twist—it functions like a pressure plate. Imagine walking over a hidden trap, only for a wall to rise behind you, cutting off escape routes or splitting the enemy team. This could be a game-changer in controlling choke points and manipulating enemy movement.
E Ability: Flash Trap with a Strategic Edge
The E ability, which is the agent’s signature ability, seems more complex and intriguing. It’s described as a flash ability that can be placed on walls to activate later, or used to flash from behind a wall, similar to Breach’s flash. What makes this ability stand out is its versatility—it can be used proactively by setting traps or reactively in the heat of battle. With only a 20-second cooldown and one charge, this ability could offer a strategic edge, allowing players to control engagements in unique ways.
Ultimate: Weapon-Disabling Thorn Trap
The ultimate ability, costing eight orbs, introduces a new debuff mechanic to Valorant. According to the leak, it involves a thorn that, when an opponent is caught in it, disables their ability to use weapons. This aligns with recent teasers showing a gun wrapped in thorns. While it’s unclear whether this ultimate will be deployable as a trap or if it can be thrown reactively, its core function—disabling an enemy’s weapon—could dramatically shift the dynamics of a round. Unlike Killjoy’s lockdown or Gekko’s Thrash, this ultimate seems focused on neutralizing specific threats without fully detaining enemies.
What’s Next?
As always with leaks, it’s essential to take this information with a grain of salt until Riot Games officially reveals the new agent. The official reveal is expected on Friday, and only then will we know how accurate these leaks are. However, if these abilities are true, the new agent Vyse could bring a fresh layer of strategy to Valorant, particularly in how players control space and disrupt the enemy team.
