Indeed, this is exciting news for the players and will shake up the current meta. New agent introductions always have caused dramatic changes in gaming playstyle. Remember when Chamber came out? He dominated the pick rate and was a tough foe to fight against. As he is nerfed and Killjoy is the tyrannical Sentinel agent, a new addition would pose competition for the current Meta.

Next agent and the unannounced role

The following agent that will hit the game would likely be the initiator. The speculation arises from what Goscicki said in the video. “Soon agent 22 will be joining the fight…New ways to check corners, get on to locations, plant the spike…” From this, the style of play mentioned looks like an initiator-oriented one. This is, however, just a theory.

As for the unannounced third agent category, it might mostly be a Duelist. This is just a speculation based on the factor that Harbor, who got recently released, was a controller, and the next two are expected to be an Initiator and a Sentinel. Speculations aside, 2023 will be a blast for the Valorant community.

On March 7th, the current Episode will come to an end. We will eventually get more information regarding the upcoming agents. Meanwhile, you can log in to watch the current VCT Lock In Brasil for free to claim the watch party drops.
