is astra rn better than omen???

answers for both Vct and ranked would be apreciated, know how to use both just questioning

in ranked Astra is better on pearl

thats about it

pro play maybe on the bigger maps

For VCT - On large maps like abyss and pearl astra for sure is better than omen for better map control. On other maps it depends on team comp and playstyle.

For ranked - In higher ranks almost same as vct for large maps. Otherwise comfortable agent is always better. For lowers ranks omen has edge as people hardly call for util and all. With omen u can do solo plays.

Both are about even if I'm honest it depends on the map vct wise but in ranked probably omen since people don't know how to play off util

in abyss and pearl definitely
else omen everywhere

omen is usually better in ranked cause astra requires alot of teamplay to get value out of

Vct wise besides pearl, abyss and bind will prolly be omen cuz even with the one ways gone, paranoia is one of the best flashes in the game so for coordinating team stuff it’s more helpful for combos

Probably true in proplay, hard to say in soloQ

It really depends on map-design. Astra is good on Abyss and Pearl due to the long rotations/entries into site. Omen is good on maps like Ascent and Sunset due to the faster rotations. When we get 10.0, I think we will be in arguably one of the most balanced dome-smoke map pools:

• Brimstone has Fracture and Bind;
• Astra has Pearl and Abyss;
• Omen has Haven, Split and Lotus.

Omen will still probably lead in smoke-picks since he is viable on Abyss. Astra can be played on all of Omen's maps albeit at the trade of the speed of his smokes and his flash.

In a short summary, Astra probably won't be better than Omen in picks still, but she has high potential if the teams/players prefer her playstyle over Omen.

Astra ftw

Never.
#PROUDOMENMAIN

Depends on playstyle of the player but Omen flash is so OP and his smokes come back so fast so probably Omen in general

Assuming you can play both to the same degree, it depends entirely on the map

Abyss: Astra is better but people will often play Omen
Ascent: Omen is better but both are great
Brimstone: Astra is better, in fact probably better than Brimstone
Haven: Astra is better but people will often play Omen
Pearl: Astra is better
Split: Omen is better, but both are very viable
Sunset: It's about 50/50 so either one works, but you will see more Omen being played just because people are more comfortable with it

Just use clove in ranked, and astra is broken in pro play, omen's advantage is the flash only.
