    might be totally wild but when the hatchet opens (before jumping), the sun is shown (might represent a flash), and it actually looks quite bright compared to the inner environment. anyone who's inside for so long flinches just a bit when suddenly exposed to a bright light. the agent, however, puts on the glasses, and seems to go on and about easily (as I said, totally wild)

  • @Eshtian
    @Eshtian 2 дня назад +51

    I think he's more likely to be a second playmaker rather than an off-site support.
    Striking distance typically, though I guess not intrinsically, suggests a close-range playstyle. You get within striking distance after all.
    The object looks like a gadget. Maybe a grenade, definitely a projectile.

      @@Eshtian Doubt it. Gekko is the most recent initiator released and he already fulfills that second playmaker role.

Making another initiator that works the same would just be uninspired and pretty uninventive imo.

      Punching distance is close. Distance is a measurement. When you say something is in blank distance, it is within range, with regard to the question of if it is in range.
      It certainly could mean long range, but the usage doesn't imply that it has to be long range, and is more commonly used for close distance things. You're separating the words from the sentence and it doesn't work for phrases.

      @@pjjustice5014 A. You're point about it being uninspired relies entirely on the idea that the agent would be a second entry character which completely disregards game design. Being aggressive is hardly a unique trait for a character that defines them completely. It also just ignores the actual abilities and hinges on push position.
      B. The idea also seems to imply it's based on release schedule which is just weird. Would it be more inspired if he was exactly the same, but released after a Breach clone?
      C. The devs seem to be on an aggressive streak. Clove was a Controller/Duelist. Vyse was a Sentinel/Initiator. That certainly could be an excuse for the devs to pull back on the aggression, but I'd bet on the pattern continuing rather than ending.

    Some other interesting archetypes not in the game yet:
    - remote-fighter duelist (Iso ult but make it the entire kit)
    - deceptive sentinel
    - controller with intel
    - exhaustor initiator (meddles with ability charges)
    - tempo-based controller (meddles with cooldowns)
    - melee duelist (!?)
    - anti-lineups sentinel
    - momentum-based duelist
    - duelist-countering initiator (instead of countering sentinel)
    - sentinel that's strong when utility is spread all over the map but weak when concentrated into one area

    • @Eshtian
      @Eshtian 2 дня назад +13

      Exhaustor initiator should not exist, Kay/o is more than fine. Thank you.
      Isn't Neon a momentum based duelist? She can literally move and shoot somewhat accurately.
      And what's the idea behind an initiator that counters duelist?
      A well placed flash already does that. Is it an anti push initiator? Because that's just a sentinel.

    The glasses being able to see through smokes gave me a wild conspiracy idea. That is why they did the ping change where you can’t ping through smokes. Now only this agent can tell if someone is sticking the defuse and can’t ping the diffusers location for his team to spam. They changed ammo count before deadlock came out so her wall wouldn’t be spammed as easily because you would run out of ammo quicker. This could be a similar thing?

  • @GodSilentz
    @GodSilentz 2 дня назад +8

    ok
    so the the glasses being important is an interesting theory.
    and if we look at our recon initiators, fade and sova, they have a thing in common - The recon can be shot
    So if this is an recon and deep line initiator kind of hybrid, I would say at least 1 of his abilities, would be a see through walls recon, that wouldnt be as long as sova or fade, maybe just like 1 ping of sovas so it isnt extremely op, but the main point is, u cant avoid it, if agent 27 is looking in ur direction, and u are hiding, w this ability he is gonna have the info, of course we gotta set a distance i would say it would be like Soba or fade radius to have a kind of similar effect, but for example, lets pretend we are doing an execute on a site, Ascent A main just to be easier we smoke , we glash, and my dude just looks at the wall and basically every1 till kin of that heaven or hell area is revealed.
    but then we gotta have some ability to rival breach, what does breach have, stuns, this character doesnt rlly need to go in for the execute to go correct, so I woult say we pull a Brim stone like pad or smth similar, and we can select the areas were our stuns will hit, so we reveal, we see a guy gen and 1 dice, bamm we stun those areas, 40 sec for a new stun, and we get a sound cue that the enemy was stunned.
    But thats just a Theory...

    • @eschess_
      @eschess_ 2 дня назад +2

      That's a nice theory, but I believe see through walls is way too OP. I mean if you give proplayers this the agent will be 100% meta on ALL maps.
      The recon type ablity paired with the stuns is a nice idea! And it very much could be exactly this.
      The gadget we see on the playercard kinda reminds me of an armguard which would align with the idea of a brimpad like ablity use.
      Thinking about your idea of the recon ability: I do see a world, where he can look through smokes. This would also give more sense to the recent ping system change. Because now if you ping, your team will have to look at the minimap, or the player playing is forced to give precise callouts.
      In case the utility is this type of recon I would hope, that players detected, get some way of knowing it and also that revealed enemies don't show up on the minimap

    • @GodSilentz
      @GodSilentz 2 дня назад +2

      @eschess_ ik its way to op thats why it need to be short duration like only 1 sova ping or even less, maybe the further u are from the agent, the more faded the ping is, so it would be more reliable for clearing closer angles

  • @KyhlTheWeaver
    @KyhlTheWeaver 2 дня назад +1

    His playercard and codename, GlassTech, immediately makes me think he is going to have see-through barriers. This would kinda also make sense with the playercard name because he would use barriers to close the gap and get his team into proper striking distance. This would not be the first time Riot would attempt to make a barrier Initiator. In fact, the scrapped agent Crusader, which eventually was reworked into Breach, had a shield throw ability. Having played a little bit of Spectre Divide, I think clear barriers could be a healthy addition, and currently we have one barrier agent in each of the other roles (Sage, Harbor and Iso), so it would make sense if they also add an Initiator to the mix.

  • @vincenzosama
    @vincenzosama 2 дня назад +1

    Ok, regarding the card's emblem, taking into account the codename "GlassTech", what I can speculate from this is that this device, perhaps, produces its own glass-like structures from its tip.
    One detail that was overlooked is that if we look at the top of the card's emblem, you can see a kind of "structure" coming out of the tip, as if it were overheating. What I can speculate is that this device can generate some different effect or devices (for each skill perhaps) that are made from this special glass structure, pretty similar to a "comb", like a bee or wasp.
    He's also high up, perhaps indicating something related to height in the game? Finally, I can mention that the BP card involving two robots looking for debris is called "torque" and as this is probably something related to the new agent, there is the possibility that there is something related to the rotational force around an axis.

  • @Kavyatej
    @Kavyatej 2 дня назад +1

    i think the idea of distance is important in this agent, which increases the chances of him being a good lurk.

Or setting up a flash like a yoru tp and being able to activate it from the other side of the map.

    @jangtheconqueror День назад

    Wild guess so that I can say I told you so if I'm right: the ult is a bombing run of some sort. You choose a line somehow (maybe you can pick a start and end point with a maximum length) and along that line, bombs are dropped sequentially, killing or severely wounding anybody along that line. Not a huge problem to dodge but if you're caught in some narrow corridor at the wrong time then you're a goner. There'll probably some wind up time as it comes in so people have time to run in between the ult announcement and the bombs.

    It’ll be cool if he skydives as an ult and you can shoot him out of the sky…

      I highly doubt that, he's more than likely gonna be a more combat focused initiator, one that either lurks and has abilities to help him do that or 1 that dumps all of his util at once from the sky and entrys.

      So Harbors ult but with explosives.
      That's just harbors ult but better.
