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 on the map Pearl that your enemies will despise!




Setups - Attack  

 

As an Omen you sort of fill in 2 roles at once. One is smoking the site for your team as a controller, another is using your very important blind that works similarly to an initiator ability. 



B Default

For this setup, smoking B Link and Heaven or CT is optimal but you will need to take Halls control so that defenders can’t easily force you out of site. 



B Control

For this setup, you are still required to take B Halls control but then you’re smoking heaven and CT. With that, you blind B link to give your teammates space to plant safely. 



A Art Control

For executing the A site, there are multiple ways but one of the most efficient ways is to smoke both Dugout and CT while blinding Art to gain space into site. This is best paired with a sage that can wall off art completely so you can have all 3 areas of the site completely covered up. 



A Default

The more efficient way to actually execute A site if you don’t have a Sage lies in smoking flower and art then blinding dugout/secret and potentially taking full control of it. 



Mid To A

Now of course sites aren’t the only way to actually execute, in Pearl mid control is very important the best way you can utilize this fact is by taking a quick route from Mid to site. Here is how you should place your smokes pushing from Art to A site. 



Mid To B

Similarly, here’s how you can smoke pushing from Mid to B. 



Setups - Defense 

 

Defense side is just as important as Attack on Pearl, that’s why you need to be extremely efficient in both sides. These setups will elevate your gameplay to the next level: 



A Counter Execute

When defending as an Omen, you have a huge advantage using your paranoia off enemy’s steps. As they’re rushing, this will definitely catch them off guard done properly. 



A Full Hold

And if you’re not willing to give away the entirety of Art which is a lot of space, you can smoke deep but you will need to have a player actively holding that smoke down to ensure nobody just walks out of it. 



Mid Control

As we mentioned previously mid control is inevitably important, so you might as well require to obtain that on defense. This is a great way and simple way to do so, but remember to do that when you have a teammate with you and preferably on an eco round as it’s less risk overall. 



B Default

pearl_defense_b

The classic and traditional smoke of B site. 



B Aggressive

This is a more advanced way, where you try and take all of the B long space for yourself. It’s quite risky and needs coordination & utility, but if you’re able to confidently walk up B long without the enemies instantly rushing you have a good chance of making this happen.
