Valorant's Agent 25, named Clove, is all set to make their debut in the game on March 26 and will be the first non-binary agent. They will play the role of a controller in your team and offer an "opportunity for more aggressive playstyle." Here is everything we know about Clove in Valorant.
What Are Clove’s Abilities In Valorant?
Riot Games has officially revealed Clove’s abilities and you can have a look at all of them below.
(E) Ruse
EQUIP to view the battlefield. FIRE to set the locations where Clove’s clouds will settle. ALT FIRE to confirm, launching clouds that block vision in the chosen areas. Clove can use this ability after death.
Ability While Alive
"Clove will encourage a lot more risky solo plays around sites, as they don’t lose as much value as other agents would if they died before casting their Ruse. It’s probably more likely that this type of agent will have a larger impact on ranked than professional play, but hopefully they can make a splash on pro play as well!" said Dan Hardison, Agent Gameplay Designer.
Ability After Dying
(Q) Meddle
EQUIP a fragment of immortality essence. FIRE to throw the fragment, which erupts after a short delay and temporarily decays all targets caught inside.
(C) Pick-me-up
INSTANTLY absorb the life force of a fallen enemy that Clove damaged or killed, gaining haste and temporary health.
(X / ULT) Not Dead Yet
After dying, ACTIVATE to resurrect. Once resurrected, Clove must earn a kill or a damaging assist within a set time, or they will die.
Scenario 1: You get a kill or assist
"We tried ultimates that had large map impact but could only be cast after death, but we never wanted Clove to be running into someone trying not to kill them just so they could access their ultimate, as the game was insanely goofy when that was the case," said Dan Hardison, Agent Gameplay Designer.
Scenario 2: You don't get a kill or assist
