Omen stands an important position in the VALORANT agent pool being one of the most consistent picks across all maps. 

 

Playing a controller agent is rather simple, but there are certain tips and setups that can elevate your gameplay to the next level. Following this Omen guide will turn you into a nightmare for any enemy you’re up against! 




Setups - Attack 

 

The attacking side is where you shine most as a controller. While both sides are equal in significance, attacking is a lot more difficult if your smokes are not placed properly. So follow these smokes & setups and you’ll be good to go! 



What’s different for you as an Omen player, is that you’ll be acting as both an initiator and smoker at times. That is because you have a unique blind ability that is extremely helpful for your duelists entering site; for that reason you should always look for expanded ways to use it in order to get most effect of your actual site execute. 



A Default

An example of pushing the A site here is to have the ordinary smokes with a blind towards Generator so your duelists can be more comfortable when dashing on site. 



B Default

Attacking B site is quite familiar, as you just need to smoke Market and CT. However keep in mind you should always blind like so at the round start, chances are there’s somebody peeking to get an early pick and it’s going to get handy if you get rid of them to fast execute. 

 

Mid To B

In taking a mid route to B, all you need to do is smoke CT and the CT link from mid to have cover all the way into site. Just account for the fact that B main is not clear and taking site won’t be everything, you need to clear spots of the map that you do not control for better chances of winning. 



Mid To A

Easiest way to attack from Mid To A is by smoking Short and Heaven, combine that with a 

Paranoia so you assure nobody is coming out of the smoke to punish you. Or even push the smoke if you’re at a player disadvantage and take more control of that space. 



Setups - Defense

 

Now we’ll move on to the defense side, there are quite some interesting tricks you can do to be more efficient as a controller on defense. You don’t need to always be “boring” and sit back, especially with Omen deep smoking and taking better control of the map is a good option depending on the scenario. Here are the best smokes & setups for defense: 



A Aggressive

The famous one way you will see in every pro match and high elo ranked game while defending A site with Omen. And that is, for good reason. This one way blocks your enemies from just brainlessly pushing into you to take A main control, it gives you a huge advantage especially when having a teammate it’s typically impossible for them to pass without getting punished. 



A Passive

A more traditional style, if you’re worried about short and don’t want to play as aggressive this smoke is going to be ideal



Mid Control

Here’s the best way to take control of mid, have some of your teammates to help and smoke like this. Deciding whether you want to push further depends on you and if that was your choice make sure you utilize your paranoia so that you guarantee a safe kill. 



B Passive

Defending B is just as simple, smoke Mid for your teammate and to delay any lurks from just pushing through and smoke B main. Play crossfires or in any position you’d like, and you will have your smokes charging up so as long as you hold for long enough enemies can’t really just execute.
