One agent they won't have got any time with though, is the latest one, the 11th agent who goes by the name Reyna. This soul harvester on paper looks to be one of the most powerful characters in the game, with the ability to collect soul orbs from dead players that regenerate health or use those same soul orbs to become temporarily invincible. 

She is categorized as a duelist, which makes her the fourth in the game with the other's being Phoenix, Jett and Raze.

Reyna's Tips and Tricks

• Soul Orbs can be collected from dead opponents who are killed by Reyna only, they only last for a few seconds and cannot be taken into the next round.
• Two of Reyna's abilities count on collecting Soul Orbs, so killing opponents is key to success.
• Reyna's blinding ability will continue blinding opponents until destroyed, use it as a distraction to keep your opponents looking away from you.
• Reyna's Invulnerability stops you from firing any weapons and should be used to get out of sticky situations.
