What do you think will be the next agent role?

It shouldn't be controller. Astra, Omen, Brim, Viper; there are only 4 controllers but it's enough for now imo. They all recently got a balance update as well in which some got nerfed and some buffed.

Right now the sentinel role is very unbalanced, KJ and especially chamber (sage too but she is more of a push delayer than a detector) are the most picked ones. Cypher pickrate has drastically decreased because he gets counterd by like 10+ agents.

And that's why I think next agent should be a sentinel or they could atleast buff cypher and slightly buff kj's alarmbot range to compete with chambers bot (it's confirmed by the devs in the recent reddit q&n but knowing Rito it will probably take 1 year+ for this indie company to develop it)

we have had one new controller since release. if it’s not a controller riot is lazy, just because controllers are hard to make

It's really kinda hard to make new controllers, since you put an all purpose/global kit in just ONE controller (Astra)

im not sure if its a language barrier but hes saying riot has only released one controller since valorant was launched

Oh... I'd read "We have had any new controller since release"

my bad

they need a new controller that has a large barrier like viper wall, because maps like breeze and icebox feel like they were literally designed around it and adding someone similar would make those maps much more fun.

they should add a controller who’s abilities are literally like 6 smokes and that’s it

I think there should be another controller who has a wall like smoke similar to viper. That would change up a couple really cool things imo.

another controller, astras to hard to use in ranked (although good in pro play) same with viper on maps that arent icebox or breeze, and having two controllers to legitimately use on 5 maps just doesn't seem enough to me, also i think riot can get really creative with controllers.

Propably one which has permanent free Vandal ability. 10 Bullets for just 200 Credits. And the Ult will make you disconnect from the Server.

i think sentinel rebalances are important rn. cypher should get some buffs kj should get a small buff and i fully support the chamber trademarl nerf bc it makes him have a different exigence than a kj or cypher. now chamber is good ar being agressive and holding through agressive plays. kj is good at reinforcing tight chokes and cypher is good at playing for info and map control. but cyphers job is not really viable when chamber does it better and has the ability to play agressive. i hope they do another balance change next act. hopefully it comes with a new map that theyre already working on.

seems fair lol

I hope no more agents in near future. Just make another content with maps, maybe add more weapons, balance chamber ult, buff some other agents like Pho & Cypher.

wym i feel like all controllers are good and balanced rn. astra might be hard but i feel like thats the appeal like on a good astra map astra has a lot of ability to set up the team moreso than omen or brim, but omen and brim allow for more solo play. i feel like a new controller would have to find a niche and that would be hard to accomplish.

i didnt say theyre unbalanced, its just hard to play astra in ranked (i even said she was good in pro play) and viper is a little tough in ranked maps that arent icebox or breeze, i never said they were unbalanced, idk where u got that.

i mean u said u can only play 2 controllers for all maps so i just thought thats what u meant. i think a new controller would be cool but hard to pull off since i think controller is the most balanced role rn.

yeah i just think the only other canadite is sentinals which need more of a balance rather than more of them, and i think riot have shown how creative they can get with controllers (with astra)
