My hope for the next character

Simply, I hope it's a Wall Oriented Controller, with more aggressive options

Basically a version of Viper meant for a more aggressive approach like Omen. I think it'd be great to introduce a real alternative to Viper on maps like Breeze and Icebox. I'm also hoping that it's more a settable wall like Astra, but not nearly as long, just a normal wall (~45-60m). Keep Viper there as a great lurker, but add in an aggressive alternative so we can continue to see variance in play and keeping different playstyles engaged.

Also, I'm so excited for the Chamber nerf in the competitive scene so we can all see the Yay Yoru.

I have no builds for a character. Might make one though.

Neon has aggressive walls

With the leaks i saw the theme of the new agent will be water based and their country of origin will be indian.

Imagine those lasting longer and being at a better strategic position, not sectioning off a small area so you can go brrrrrrr

Need a competitor for Viper. So boring having Viper/Sage mirror every Icebox

tbf, Omen and Brim are viable on Icebox, but you don't generally see it outside the pro scene. The problem is that running controllers other than Viper on Icebox requires team coordination and practice, which doesn't exist in ranked. Viper is just easy and everyone knows what to do with her. Even if this new controller has some useful kit on the map, people will still default to what they know.

Viper is not just easy, she is just much better. Other can't offer what she can on that map
