The upcoming Valorant Patch 8.07 bears good news for Omen mains. The meta Controller Agent, present since the game’s beta development, will get a small tweak to his Ultimate that could result in round-changing Clutches.
Following the next patch update, Omen can interact with the Spike and doors while he is in his Shade form after using his Ultimate. This was revealed by the PBE notes shared by RIOT Games. However, the developers didn’t mention ‘how’ the agent will be able to interact with his surroundings during his Ultimate.
Valorant Patch 8.07: How To Pick Up Spike With Omen’s Ultimate?
Omen’s Ultimate (X-ability) allows him to teleport to a selected area on the map. Currently, players have to deactivate the From The Shadows ability to pick up the Spike. This won’t be the case anymore once Valorant Patch 8.07 rolls out and buffs the Controller agent.
Learn how to pick up Spike with Omen’s ultimate by following the steps mentioned below:-
- Activate From The Shadows (X-ability) to view the whole map.
- Teleport to the location of the Spike by clicking where it is situated on the map.
- Omen will teleport to the marked area. Press the ‘F’ key to pick up the Spike in his Shade form.
The phantom Agent completes the teleportation four seconds after the activation of his Ultimate. Note that enemy players can disrupt the TP by destroying the Shade that appears on the selected area.
Omen will also be able to interact with doors and weapons while in his Shade form after Valorant Patch 8.07. Players need to press the F key to open or close doors or pick up a weapon. The former can be exceptionally useful when Omen wants to prevent enemies from approaching the Spike site. The agent can use his Ultimate to teleport near a door, close the door, and then cancel his teleport.
Omen’s skillset is one of the strongest in the meta because he has access to smokes (Dark Cover), can blind opponents with Paranoia, and teleport behind enemies using Shrouded Step. The upcoming buff to his Ultimate will notch his relevance. He also has good synergy with Yoru in Valorant, one of the most-picked Duelists.
