Every figure shows its source. Where a source is missing, the number is a placeholder — and it is never written as fact.

Omen

Controller · Flexible default

Controllers are experts in slicing up dangerous territory to set their team up for success.

Why we fit it where we do The one controller whose kit does not need the map to cooperate.

The four

  • Shrouded StepC · mobility

    EQUIP a shrouded step ability and see its range indicator. FIRE to begin a brief channel, then teleport to the marked location.

  • ParanoiaQ · flash

    EQUIP a blinding orb. FIRE to throw it forward, briefly Nearsighting and Deafening all players it touches. This projectile can pass straight through walls.

  • Dark CoverE · smoke

    EQUIP a shadow orb, entering a phased world to place and target the orbs. PRESS the ability key to throw the shadow orb to the marked location, creating a long-lasting shadow sphere that blocks vision. HOLD FIRE while targeting to move the marker further away. HOLD ALT FIRE while targeting to move the marker closer. PRESS RELOAD to toggle normal targeting view.

  • From the ShadowsX · mobility

    EQUIP a tactical map. FIRE to begin teleporting to the selected location. While teleporting, Omen will appear as a Shade that can be destroyed by an enemy to cancel his teleport, or PRESS EQUIP for Omen to cancel his teleport.

Patch 13.05

  • Smoke and flash interactionA dissipating smoke no longer blocks the flash. — A flash you used to hide behind a fading smoke now arrives. Entries timed to the end of a smoke are the ones that changed, not the ones timed to its start.
  • Smoke-covered plays that depended on the fadeIt is not. — Every saved setup that spends a controller smoke as cover is worth one retest — the landing spot did not move, the protection did.
