At 1:45 I believe for the 'standard' use (on a teammate), Miks getting a kill will extend the duration for both players, but like I said in a clutch / when you use it on yourself, it can't be extended! Will confirm with my early access tomorrow, hard to keep up with the live showcase & showmatch
I saw in the video of the new bundle that one of them play the new agent and could revive his teammate in limited time he had (its count down) is there anything about it?
Could have gone for new mechanics for Miks ult instead of another stun effect, really. Something like this: he places a speaker somewhere, and every ally within a certain radius of the speaker has their HP connected to each other, such that any damage taken by one is distributed to all allies within the aoe. Lasts around 8-10 seconds, speakers can be destroyed to end the ult early. I guess they already had their quota for new stuff with Veto, so it's gonna be some reMiks of existing agents for the next couple of releases.
exactly. like nothing about music or sounds got anything to do with smoke. at least make it so that sound is altered in or out of the smoke... or make the smoke "soundy" looking, like vibrations and stuff
Reyna ain’t even going to be a problem. She got needlessly nerfed into the ground, so she’s now unusable compared to other agents. The real problem finna be the neon and waylay agents that can now run/dash and pull out gun faster with Miks boost. I swear they don’t nerf the most broken agents in the game, but instead nerf perfectly fine agents like Reyna and yoru.
@__scribe what I mean by breach inspired ult is some long line of something that has some effect, not just something that goes forward. Breach, Fade, Harbor, Iso, Tejo, Waylay and now Miks. It’s too much…
@purplehaze5152fax, cause they new people still played her, so to make this agent show good numbers on people picking him so it would seem like a bad play from hi, they got rid of her. Pretty lame, they should just focus on making good agents initially then this won’t be a problem
First, her nerf is nothing insane. Its gonna impact a couple of rounds during the whole game at most. Second, clove is literally the strongest agent in ranked, you are actually braindead for crying about a nerf
@purplehaze5152 the point is that clove is literally the best agent in the game ofc they had to nerf her like jett but jett is still the best but idk about clove
@__Kainon__ ofc it's gonna impact it a lot. 14 sec to 6 sec changes everything about diffusing spike. Plus, they already nerfed her in the last patch, this was not needed
A better and different option would have been using orbs or anchors for smokes since he is a DJ, can place two retrievable boomboxes (like pre nerf viper) and trigger them for smokes.
@Agentznji That's not true lol, take a look at the very first couple of agents especially Viper and Raze. They have unique abilities especially ults. They need to get back their original team to come up with new agents instead of working with the same abilities. There's a whole lot they could have done .
@Agentznjibro def never knew MOBA game exist with hundreds of different abilities especially DOTA 2 where Invoker got 15+ different skill combo from only 3 skills
For his resonance, I'm pretty sure the combat stim refreshes if he gets a kill when it is applied to a teammate... so it could be either Miks or the other teammate that gets the kill to refresh it.
M-Pulse (C): Can it destroy utils as well? Harmonize (Q): 1. Does the Combat Stim from Harmonize stack with Brimstone’s Stim Beacon? 2. Does it have to be a kill from the buffed teammate or can it also be an assist from the buffed teammate? Bassquake (X): If i plant the spike at the corner, will the knockback from the ultimate cancel the plant? (and vice versa: if i defuse a spike at the corner and got ulted)
All hero games become something like this. There will still be completely original agents on occasion but we’ll see more and more crossover as time goes on
His ult had so much more potential! Since he's all about helping others shine, what if his ult was like a refresh? What if teammates get their E ability back? What if they get an extra ult point for kills? He would spend his ultimate helping other agents reach their ults.
Riot devs losing creativity with every ult, this is the 7th aoe ult that's just an area select and apply effect ult. How is it that hard to create new ults, at least give it a new effect or something instead of just new combination of effects.
I personally would be fine with AoE ults if they were creative and not repetitive. There are so many ideas, so many things possible but they just go “stun, flash, disarm” If he’s a controller with a heal ability, why not make it based on it, or why not make it based on smokes or fucking anything. They add all of that stuff and then nerf the same stuff on old agents.
Its a soundwave bro, what do you expect from it 💀💀, just imagine a massive sound wave come to you.. your eardrum gonna teared, knockback from the pluse and got stunned.. it make sense...
There's nothing much to test about his ability other than the bot tbh. It's pretty straightforward, smoke same as clove, stim well it's stim, riot decide to generalize stim buff so we should expect it has same buff as brim stim. And the ult is mixmatch of breach and fade
0:19 I checked in game with the smoke range and when standing in the same position in a heaven as brim it reaches further than what miks's map is shown as, so either they were lying about the range for some reason, thsi is an earlier version of miks or they nerfed the range on brim and clove smokes this patch
They aren't lying, they said it on-stream that it's slightly larger and would behave more like Astra and Omen in terms of being far but can still support. Also, being a Tejo player, I recognize that range any time. That's 55m which is the old Salvo range
Here’s my ideas for how to make his kit more interesting: C: keep as is. Q: keep as is. E. Smokes also have a pulsing beatbox sound in the center, which messes with your audio cues. The closer you get to the center of the smoke, the louder it is. For balance purposes, maybe the smoke starts out normal and has to be activated like Harbors shield ability. X: Rage Cage - form a rectangular cage. Allies can see enemies caught inside normally, but enemies inside lose color vision (see the outside as black and white). They are also subjected to the same beatboxing pulse in the E ability, but at max volume throughout the cage (basically they can’t really hear anything). They’re also confined to the cage for its 8 second duration, but can shoot or use utilities through the walls. For the animation, I imagine 4 pillars shooting up out of the ground to let enemies know it’s activated, followed by the walls of the cage forming shortly after. This could be 9 ult points since I imagine it’s on the stronger side.
Right? That way there's no spike dif sound but at the same time, that means you can't hear someone running into the smoke to check on the spike. Great risk-reward twist
I miss when the game was interesting, when people actually were excited for a new agent and to learn their mechanics to master it and create their own playing style. With this agent I don't think it'll be possible because it's straight up a mix of old abilities.
In the next update Yoru’s flashes will heal enemies, his tp will leave a mark on a minimap so everyone on the server can see where he is and his clone will turn to the closest teammate after getting shot. Trust me I’m Riot employee. Oh, also his ult will be permanent he won’t be able to end it
@epicdoge541waylay can smoke damn near every map from one position and she hasn’t gotten a nerf if they nerf his smoke range that’s just bull they already gutted clove
100% either a nerf to his C , Smoke or even Ultimate, because that area for 8 points is quite big, either they will nerf the effects or the area, or increase the points
@spongebobsqarepants8049 you mean astra? If so then astra is different and special, i'm mainly comparing him to brim and clove, hell you could even compare him to tejo cuz tejo had his ipad range nerfed before
So its just brimstone with -1 smoke, an unarguably worse stim. A different molly(That i won't really rant about its decent ig). And an overgrown gekko stun as an ult.
worse stim? ngl it's kinda broken with a good duelist. it's the reason clove is so good in ranked. basically, a wide swing simulator. snowball duels. and you could take fights in different areas of the map, unlike brimstone's. it could allow you to possibly lurk as well, assuming you both get the timing right.
@shulleon582The thing is brim gets you stim guaranteed to whatever agent is on the team the fact that his stim is reliant on your duelist doing something is actually kinda ass. + Popping it for yourself just takes half the value away so there is not even a way to guarantee max value while also being in control of how you play.
Mix's kit looks like a game-changer for controllers, especially with that Basequake ultimate, the knockback and deafen combo is going to be so strong for clearing sites
Honestly chamber kinda fits this considering his entire kit is guns where on an eco you can choose how many bullets you are gonna buy to have enough to buy the next round and managing your ult to leave money to drop for a teammate and stuff it is probably as close as we will get to getting an eco managing agent
@Personneinternetyou can one hundred percent just buy for a teammate most rounds and use headhunter, its just not optimal to rely on others in ranked. Theres no way to make an agent that wont be used selfishly like that unless theyre buffing the amount of credits a teammate can get, but that means having no actual round utility, and it might just go to waste if the teammate does nothing
Mix's ability to refresh the harmonize stim through teammate kills is a really unique mechanic for a controller, looking forward to seeing how that ultimate changes site takes🎮🔥
Seems really weak...sry. The ult is probably the weakest AOE debuff in the game and we have seen that combat stim isnt that valuable in high elo. The abilty to heal is cool but initiating with a throwable stun seems really akward when comapred to sth like paranoia or breach util.
A whole year just to come up with an agent with this limited repeated abilities ????? A multi-millions dollars company with this limited ideas is crazyyyyy
They been doin this for years, 90% of Valorants abilities just end up being a circle aoe ability and a big aoe ult. Also valorant uses money for fuck all so
@purplejinxer3478 It's not even close to being repeated abilities, yall mad he's balanced. If he was overpowered, you would whine. If he was underpowered, you would whine. Haters going to hate.
Yeah they dropped the ball on this one. This agent was so hyped, should have had some actual sound based abilities. Maybe mute smokes, or ult makes him all silent, absolutely no sound from whatever he does, maybe he would messup sound in some ways
I wanted this honestly, it's extremely similar to what I wrote down back in January and never finished conceptually. Harmoning with teammates is exactly what I wanted but I wanted it to be a sound based agent that slightly mimics the other players. Basically a copy cat kit but that would've been io versatile and a headache. This makes a lot more sense for a character than what I had.
Hype on the first 2 weeks, lowest pick rate after that! I see Brimmy getting a small buff with 2 stims again! (Hope so). Btw can you test the M-pulse heals everyone inside (teammates and enemies? )
wow, a totally support unit, i'll sure going to test it, if it is usefull for my team while also makes me feel great using it, i'll turn it into my smoke main, since i got tired of clove and omen
kit is interesting, first time ive seen a cone shaped ult so i wonder how thatll go with both low and high elo, its also gonna be interesting to see how like half of the ego gold ranks will react since miks is even heavier team based than every other controller
Here's what my idea of 'sound' agents ability - sound granade/kinda flashbang but it's make enemy deaf - fake sound step that can be activated from afar - buff or debuf music with him as the center/nearby ally effect - area shockwave or party
They should have added an Auditory hallucination ability to him, where you hear gun firing that isnt there, footsteps near you that might not be real, and some other shit
Imma play him but I feel like his ult could have been more interesting. Since he is all about good vibes I figured his ult would have amp'd his team in a way like some sort of effect applied to his team or centered on him that benefits his team.
A couple things I'd like to see; 1. If his tablet is larger than Clove's and Brimstone's by how much larger is it? What does his ult look and feel like from the perspective of your enemies? Can his ult and stun affect you and your allies? (Ie Breach ult and stun, Tejo's whole kit minus his drone) How fast can the heal get you from 5-10 hp up to 100? With his ult range being quite large near the rear, does the effect travel like Breach's ult or just pop instantly after the windup like Waylay's? What is the size comparison of his smokes to other controller agents? Can his stun and heal be broken? And if so how many hits would it take? Can you move around while casting his ult or are you kinda stuck like Breach is? Ik this is a lot, but it's just thoughts that came to my mind Even if one of these is answered I'd be grateful
At 1:45 I believe for the 'standard' use (on a teammate), Miks getting a kill will extend the duration for both players, but like I said in a clutch / when you use it on yourself, it can't be extended! Will confirm with my early access tomorrow, hard to keep up with the live showcase & showmatch
I saw in the video of the new bundle that one of them play the new agent and could revive his teammate in limited time he had (its count down) is there anything about it?
@Shlomo375 its the new game mode that was reviving teammates on every kill u get
@prakhar057oh thanks
Can you compare miks stun radius with other radius based util? And also how much does it heal in its full duration
Could have gone for new mechanics for Miks ult instead of another stun effect, really. Something like this: he places a speaker somewhere, and every ally within a certain radius of the speaker has their HP connected to each other, such that any damage taken by one is distributed to all allies within the aoe. Lasts around 8-10 seconds, speakers can be destroyed to end the ult early.
I guess they already had their quota for new stuff with Veto, so it's gonna be some reMiks of existing agents for the next couple of releases.
i think they wanted to create a support and just gave him a smoke to put him in a role
fair, i mean you kind of need smokes.
They will never make healers meta anyways.
now we have a healing controller, sentinel & initiator. pretty baller
exactly. like nothing about music or sounds got anything to do with smoke. at least make it so that sound is altered in or out of the smoke... or make the smoke "soundy" looking, like vibrations and stuff
@coreyyohm hes trash
@grungystew He easily could've been an initiator with another signiture ability
Smurfing Reyna + boosted Miks duo every game is going to suck but I’m here for it 🔥🔥
Smurfing Reyna + boosted Miks + boosted sage + boosted Skye + boosted brimstone
@cart8909 13 aces no round losses
W gameplay I'm also here for it
Reyna’s be nerfed into the dirt as is so idk
Reyna ain’t even going to be a problem. She got needlessly nerfed into the ground, so she’s now unusable compared to other agents. The real problem finna be the neon and waylay agents that can now run/dash and pull out gun faster with Miks boost. I swear they don’t nerf the most broken agents in the game, but instead nerf perfectly fine agents like Reyna and yoru.
I thought he was cool until I saw it had another aoe stun ult 😭
Same… I’m so sick and tired of these unoriginal Breach inspired ults…
Nah nah his is slightly different than breach kinda like a breach harbor combo platter
@__scribe what I mean by breach inspired ult is some long line of something that has some effect, not just something that goes forward. Breach, Fade, Harbor, Iso, Tejo, Waylay and now Miks. It’s too much…
@__scribe thats why he said "breach inspired" and not "breach copy". Use your brain
Another Riot's Abiliities Remix Slop agent with minor tweaks. Just like a half of LOL
i wonder how fast neon can be with him and brim stim at once
just like with 1 stim
It won't stack i think
cool idea
Seeing as Reyna and brim stims stack it will probably be really good. Idk if stims stack with running tho...
dont stack
Ah him being a controller now makes sense as to why they nerfed clove to the ground
That's what i was thinking. They butcher a good old agent to introduce a new one. Shit ass game
@purplehaze5152fax, cause they new people still played her, so to make this agent show good numbers on people picking him so it would seem like a bad play from hi, they got rid of her. Pretty lame, they should just focus on making good agents initially then this won’t be a problem
First, her nerf is nothing insane. Its gonna impact a couple of rounds during the whole game at most. Second, clove is literally the strongest agent in ranked, you are actually braindead for crying about a nerf
@purplehaze5152 the point is that clove is literally the best agent in the game ofc they had to nerf her like jett but jett is still the best but idk about clove
@__Kainon__ ofc it's gonna impact it a lot. 14 sec to 6 sec changes everything about diffusing spike. Plus, they already nerfed her in the last patch, this was not needed
Its feels like him being a controller was a last minute idea for his kit. Could of had a new type of smoke but they just gave him the iPad orb smokes
it wouldve been cool if the smoke deafend enemies inside and hide minimap but cant do much when its riot ig
@gg4life579 Yes!! No creativity with this one, have to wait another year for a new controller
@gg4life579Or the sound waves vibrate so much it becomes blurry and when you enter you get defeaned though I wonder how they animate that.
A better and different option would have been using orbs or anchors for smokes since he is a DJ, can place two retrievable boomboxes (like pre nerf viper) and trigger them for smokes.
same old stun ult. Theres so many cool things they could do but always resort to this
Riot has completely lost its creativity in agent abilities
I'm so sad that the leak saying his ult would be using a dead agent skills
well when more agents get released it will be harder coming up with new ideas, especially the smoke, hope the next one will be creative
@Agentznji That's not true lol, take a look at the very first couple of agents especially Viper and Raze. They have unique abilities especially ults. They need to get back their original team to come up with new agents instead of working with the same abilities. There's a whole lot they could have done .
@Aced91huh?
@Agentznjibro def never knew MOBA game exist with hundreds of different abilities especially DOTA 2 where Invoker got 15+ different skill combo from only 3 skills
Really wished his smokes to have audio playing kinda like cyphers but stronger
OH LET'S BREAK IT DOWN!
ts not lucio
lucio cooler no lie
lucio still goat
Gone are the days of pocket sage
nobody is talking about Skye huh
As a pocket sage I will be trying him and seeing if he could be my new main lol
Nah, he still can't bring people back to life
@nagarjunm7402 Skye actually requires brains to play, Sage is easier. New dude looks even easier than Sage.
@D1mlyIMO a bad sage is worse than a bad Skye,imagine a sage just randomly throwing slow on site while ur team is executing
For his resonance, I'm pretty sure the combat stim refreshes if he gets a kill when it is applied to a teammate... so it could be either Miks or the other teammate that gets the kill to refresh it.
our boy kanga is now valo partner 🔥🔥🔥
M-Pulse (C):
Can it destroy utils as well?
Harmonize (Q):
1. Does the Combat Stim from Harmonize stack with Brimstone’s Stim Beacon?
2. Does it have to be a kill from the buffed teammate or can it also be an assist from the buffed teammate?
Bassquake (X):
If i plant the spike at the corner, will the knockback from the ultimate cancel the plant? (and vice versa: if i defuse a spike at the corner and got ulted)
The C doesnt deal damage so i doubt it will break util
Combat stim effects cant stack so no they dont harmonize
I saw a clip of someone planting and denied by his ult, so it works like a Breach ult
The clip on fracture B site proves the ult logic of denying plant/defuse like breach ult.... brim was planting but got pushed back..
i like these test questions
Yeah, it was cool until the ult don’t understand why they can’t do something new and different
He has brim smokes, breach ult, waylway slow, and brim stim, what a new creative agent Rito, just like the last 3 previous excuses on an agent.
😒Tout oublié Veto mec !
Tejo was nice
True
All hero games become something like this. There will still be completely original agents on occasion but we’ll see more and more crossover as time goes on
The funny part is that miks' version of these abilities is worse than the original.
His ult had so much more potential! Since he's all about helping others shine, what if his ult was like a refresh? What if teammates get their E ability back? What if they get an extra ult point for kills? He would spend his ultimate helping other agents reach their ults.
impagine being a dev team an,d make your 3250 ult who is a line that stun people
I actually believe the stim CAN last longer when either you or your teammate gets a kill. They said that on stream anyway.
Does it heal too when you get a kill bc i remember they said smth like that
@umutcrakl7523 no
Clove nerfed so that people pickup new agent
cloves smoke after death will always be too good even if you remove every single ability aside from the smokes.
MORE AOE ULTSLOP YUM YUM YUM
felon
huh
@dynasty2481 felon
Aoe ultslop is actually hilarious! Hope they take the feed back onboard
*The Smoke is So Bland Bro, its like a off-brand Cereal*
nice looks balanced pls nerf yoru make him not be allowed to walk
And Chamber!
"we have lucio at home" ahh agent
Not too excited, just feeling okay about it.
Me and my duo already decided he will pick sage and I am with Mike deadly combination 😂
yoru / clove : this why riot nerf us?
Riot devs losing creativity with every ult, this is the 7th aoe ult that's just an area select and apply effect ult. How is it that hard to create new ults, at least give it a new effect or something instead of just new combination of effects.
Exactly, the only recent agents with good ults in my opinion is iso and clove, they losing creativity
im so uninterested w this
I personally would be fine with AoE ults if they were creative and not repetitive.
There are so many ideas, so many things possible but they just go “stun, flash, disarm”
If he’s a controller with a heal ability, why not make it based on it, or why not make it based on smokes or fucking anything.
They add all of that stuff and then nerf the same stuff on old agents.
Its a soundwave bro, what do you expect from it 💀💀, just imagine a massive sound wave come to you.. your eardrum gonna teared, knockback from the pluse and got stunned.. it make sense...
@myasaamzzzsound waves are in a pitch only dogs can hear, which come and bite the enemies.
There's nothing much to test about his ability other than the bot tbh. It's pretty straightforward, smoke same as clove, stim well it's stim, riot decide to generalize stim buff so we should expect it has same buff as brim stim. And the ult is mixmatch of breach and fade
Yeah, they need to remove the stim reset for kills. Everything else is pretty decent.
Okay so it’s a skye heal/tejo stun, brim stim, clove smokes and breach ult? Wow gj Riot!
0:19 I checked in game with the smoke range and when standing in the same position in a heaven as brim it reaches further than what miks's map is shown as, so either they were lying about the range for some reason, thsi is an earlier version of miks or they nerfed the range on brim and clove smokes this patch
It's probably about the same
They aren't lying, they said it on-stream that it's slightly larger and would behave more like Astra and Omen in terms of being far but can still support.
Also, being a Tejo player, I recognize that range any time. That's 55m which is the old Salvo range
So i was waiting the whole time for this? 😭
1:21 also looks like they implemented a way to see if and when you assist a teammate with whatever ability. unless its unique to miks
Here’s my ideas for how to make his kit more interesting:
C: keep as is.
Q: keep as is.
E. Smokes also have a pulsing beatbox sound in the center, which messes with your audio cues. The closer you get to the center of the smoke, the louder it is. For balance purposes, maybe the smoke starts out normal and has to be activated like Harbors shield ability.
X: Rage Cage - form a rectangular cage. Allies can see enemies caught inside normally, but enemies inside lose color vision (see the outside as black and white). They are also subjected to the same beatboxing pulse in the E ability, but at max volume throughout the cage (basically they can’t really hear anything). They’re also confined to the cage for its 8 second duration, but can shoot or use utilities through the walls. For the animation, I imagine 4 pillars shooting up out of the ground to let enemies know it’s activated, followed by the walls of the cage forming shortly after. This could be 9 ult points since I imagine it’s on the stronger side.
i guess they nerfed clove to the ground so miks can shine?
Yup
im not a fan of his smokes, you could make something cool like not being able to hear inside them but they just bland
That would be so broken 💔
@grungystew that would be unique. imagine if his ult played a song inside of it
@grungystewVal player be saying anything broken, not being able to hear anything inside smoke apply both way so you have to be creative about it
His smokes look so freaking ugly and unrelated to sound
Right? That way there's no spike dif sound but at the same time, that means you can't hear someone running into the smoke to check on the spike. Great risk-reward twist
Im really happy to see a agent from my country I just really wanna see him talk more
I hope to see a Pakistani hero in Valorant or Overwatch soon.
I havent played Val in a while, but it seems like "AOE stun + debuff ult" is this game's version of League's 3 hit passive lol
would’ve been nice if his ult was like a combination of kj’s and cypher’s.
Awsm agent so many new abilities that i never could think of. Wow 🎉🎉
what's the point of this agent at all? I hate how they just copy and modify the abilities of other agents, it brings no new mechanic to the game
i wish he was a wall smoke not orb
we only got 2 controllers (excluding ults) that do wall smokes
I miss when the game was interesting, when people actually were excited for a new agent and to learn their mechanics to master it and create their own playing style. With this agent I don't think it'll be possible because it's straight up a mix of old abilities.
I think the last truly creative agent was Vyse. All her set is rather unique
@LuisEduardoRomeroRuizveto was creative as hell
@LuisEduardoRomeroRuiz veto is way more creative but nobody plays bro so i can see why you forgot about him
One thing they always nail are the animations, it's actually what got me interested in the game originally
His kit has potential. Definitely better than some of the most recent agents, in my opinion 🤷♂️
Veto was good.
@den.fortytwoI agree Veto was good. I just feel like Miks will probably have a higher pick rate than Veto, in certain ranks.
Veto is like more balanced agent but waylay and tejo are like ethreal
So much potential, man
Better than veto ig but that's not really a flex m8 veto is ASS.
wow what an original ult!
0:40 Yoru as the target hmm. its like im getting mocked
I'm saying, man
In the next update Yoru’s flashes will heal enemies, his tp will leave a mark on a minimap so everyone on the server can see where he is and his clone will turn to the closest teammate after getting shot. Trust me I’m Riot employee. Oh, also his ult will be permanent he won’t be able to end it
@dimas-dvdrustill too op bro, need more nerf
@saoumasked5823*buff
@dimas-dvdru the ult can be a buff if you think about it. It's infinite info for free
Mix's kit looks like a game-changer for team plays, that Harmonize stim and the Basequake displacement are going to be wild in coordinated pushes
They will take away 1 charge of his C after few patch, trust me
Maybe but i'm 80% sure they're gonna nerf his smoke range cuz that's huge
@epicdoge541waylay can smoke damn near every map from one position and she hasn’t gotten a nerf if they nerf his smoke range that’s just bull they already gutted clove
@spongebobsqarepants8049 waylay cant smoke??
100% either a nerf to his C , Smoke or even Ultimate, because that area for 8 points is quite big, either they will nerf the effects or the area, or increase the points
@spongebobsqarepants8049 you mean astra? If so then astra is different and special, i'm mainly comparing him to brim and clove, hell you could even compare him to tejo cuz tejo had his ipad range nerfed before
actually kinda dope agent ngl
So its just brimstone with -1 smoke, an unarguably worse stim.
A different molly(That i won't really rant about its decent ig).
And an overgrown gekko stun as an ult.
worse stim? ngl it's kinda broken with a good duelist. it's the reason clove is so good in ranked. basically, a wide swing simulator. snowball duels.
and you could take fights in different areas of the map, unlike brimstone's. it could allow you to possibly lurk as well, assuming you both get the timing right.
@shulleon582The thing is brim gets you stim guaranteed to whatever agent is on the team the fact that his stim is reliant on your duelist doing something is actually kinda ass.
+ Popping it for yourself just takes half the value away so there is not even a way to guarantee max value while also being in control of how you play.
Mix's kit looks like a game-changer for controllers, especially with that Basequake ultimate, the knockback and deafen combo is going to be so strong for clearing sites
Does harmonize stack with brim stim or other abilities that increase fire rate?
it will most probably
Nope. They both just give the combat stim buff, they aren't their own buffs
I really hope it does. We need more synergy in this game
I thought his ult would summon two drones that would amplify teammates nearby in small sphere radius.
Turns out its just breach 2.0
can u test buffing an iso then the iso ults?
Iso suppresses him self as well, in the ult. I doubt it works.
Suggest cool ults for any new agent which is balanced & different from the current agents.
I wonder if riot ever will put out an agent whos main thing is eco management.
Benjamin from BTD6
Honestly chamber kinda fits this considering his entire kit is guns where on an eco you can choose how many bullets you are gonna buy to have enough to buy the next round and managing your ult to leave money to drop for a teammate and stuff it is probably as close as we will get to getting an eco managing agent
That's just chamber
@abrawolf True, but im seeing a more supportive build, like chamber eco is mostly so he can OP
@Personneinternetyou can one hundred percent just buy for a teammate most rounds and use headhunter, its just not optimal to rely on others in ranked. Theres no way to make an agent that wont be used selfishly like that unless theyre buffing the amount of credits a teammate can get, but that means having no actual round utility, and it might just go to waste if the teammate does nothing
A riot employee really looked at their JBL pill and thought "what if this was an ability?"
Farming elo by buffing the smurft for as
Mix's ability to refresh the harmonize stim through teammate kills is a really unique mechanic for a controller, looking forward to seeing how that ultimate changes site takes🎮🔥
Seems really weak...sry. The ult is probably the weakest AOE debuff in the game and we have seen that combat stim isnt that valuable in high elo. The abilty to heal is cool but initiating with a throwable stun seems really akward when comapred to sth like paranoia or breach util.
The ult is decent in the sense that is a mix of fade and breach, the rest is pretty basic
like gekko
So He's A Mix Of Breach And Sage Got It
And a touch of Brimstone with the smoke and stim.
Filler agent ngl
A whole year just to come up with an agent with this limited repeated abilities ????? A multi-millions dollars company with this limited ideas is crazyyyyy
They been doin this for years, 90% of Valorants abilities just end up being a circle aoe ability and a big aoe ult. Also valorant uses money for fuck all so
Keep it simple stupid. Also we have not had a team healer in quite a while.
@grungystewDefending this is crazy lol
@purplejinxer3478 It's not even close to being repeated abilities, yall mad he's balanced.
If he was overpowered, you would whine. If he was underpowered, you would whine. Haters going to hate.
@grungystew idgaf if he's over or underpowered, the kit is a mix of repeated abilities, a nothing burger
looks pretty sick
he can deny plant 😮
No matter the agents, they always nail the hand animations for each ability. I love those cool gestures
looks like gang signs lmao
does ultimate affects teammates too?
Don't know but 90% sure it will
Miks looks like such a versatile controller, That Harmonize stim refreshing on teammate kills is a crazy mechanic for aggressive playstyles
Yeah they dropped the ball on this one. This agent was so hyped, should have had some actual sound based abilities. Maybe mute smokes, or ult makes him all silent, absolutely no sound from whatever he does, maybe he would messup sound in some ways
hell yeah
Since I play brim a lot but it lack sustain
The same smoke and having stim + stun and heal should really fit me
Might be my new main lol
nice another stun hereo great job !
thank bruv
I wanted this honestly, it's extremely similar to what I wrote down back in January and never finished conceptually. Harmoning with teammates is exactly what I wanted but I wanted it to be a sound based agent that slightly mimics the other players. Basically a copy cat kit but that would've been io versatile and a headache. This makes a lot more sense for a character than what I had.
Hype on the first 2 weeks, lowest pick rate after that! I see Brimmy getting a small buff with 2 stims again! (Hope so). Btw can you test the M-pulse heals everyone inside (teammates and enemies? )
wow, a totally support unit, i'll sure going to test it, if it is usefull for my team while also makes me feel great using it, i'll turn it into my smoke main, since i got tired of clove and omen
We live in a time where deadlock interacts with sound more than the agent who's supposed to be sound based
At the ult, his hands look like that one scene from Jogo from JJK when he was battling Sukuna
Harmonize (Q) is basically the Battle Cry / Inspiration skill from RPG games, but in Valorant.
a little bit of brim , a little bit of waylay , a little bit of clove , a smudge of breach xd
perfect agent for when 4 players instalock dueslists in your team
Loveeeee
kit is interesting, first time ive seen a cone shaped ult so i wonder how thatll go with both low and high elo, its also gonna be interesting to see how like half of the ego gold ranks will react since miks is even heavier team based than every other controller
basically the same as clove on release. im a clove main but i am moving to this guy asap
Here's what my idea of 'sound' agents ability
- sound granade/kinda flashbang but it's make enemy deaf
- fake sound step that can be activated from afar
- buff or debuf music with him as the center/nearby ally effect
- area shockwave or party
Look at the Ult charge... It will take ages😂
Cab the C ability stun be destroyed by gun firing on it like gekko's flash
They should have added an Auditory hallucination ability to him, where you hear gun firing that isnt there, footsteps near you that might not be real, and some other shit
I think he’s a pretty cool agent, a unique agent and that’s what makes him cool. Definitely gonna take time to learn em!
All or most of tps vs his ult might be cool
Tejo interactions
Hope this helps have a good one 😁
stunning your teammates has never been easier
these hand gesture to only smoke are crazy
Imma play him but I feel like his ult could have been more interesting. Since he is all about good vibes I figured his ult would have amp'd his team in a way like some sort of effect applied to his team or centered on him that benefits his team.
His ult can be a circular AOE that heals everyone and generate armor back including enemies (if you buy half armor you will only get half armor back)
A couple things I'd like to see;
1. If his tablet is larger than Clove's and Brimstone's by how much larger is it?
What does his ult look and feel like from the perspective of your enemies?
Can his ult and stun affect you and your allies? (Ie Breach ult and stun, Tejo's whole kit minus his drone)
How fast can the heal get you from 5-10 hp up to 100?
With his ult range being quite large near the rear, does the effect travel like Breach's ult or just pop instantly after the windup like Waylay's?
What is the size comparison of his smokes to other controller agents?
Can his stun and heal be broken? And if so how many hits would it take?
Can you move around while casting his ult or are you kinda stuck like Breach is?
Ik this is a lot, but it's just thoughts that came to my mind
Even if one of these is answered I'd be grateful
yessir
the year is 2055, riot is releasing another agent with breach ult version #105
The range on that smoke is hella nice
