Introducing the Latest VALORANT Agent: Harbor
The newest agent in VALORANT, Harbor, hails from India and possesses the power to control water. With his unique abilities, he has the potential to make a significant impact in the game’s meta.
Harbor’s most valuable ability is his signature wall of water, which can be controlled with the crosshair. This wall is not only long-lasting but also allows Harbor to cover multiple choke points during retakes or executes.
In addition to his wall ability, Harbor can create a water orb called Cove that can absorb bullets (up to 13 bullets with the Vandal or the Phantom). His ultimate ability is particularly useful for clearing out sites, as it disorients anyone caught within its wide radius.
Best Agent Choices to Pair with Harbor
If you are playing as Harbor or looking for the ideal agent to complement him, here are some recommended choices:
1. Phoenix, Reyna, or KAY/O as Primary Flashers
Having a duelist like Phoenix, Reyna, or Yoru, or an initiator like KAY/O, who can flash in through the walls is essential. Given the range covered by Harbor’s wall, a well-timed flash can catch opponents off guard.
2. Sova or Fade as Initiators
Initiators like Sova and Fade provide immense value when paired with Harbor. Their abilities allow for pinpoint accuracy in revealing enemy positions, enabling teammates to quickly take down opponents hidden behind Harbor’s water wall.
3. Omen, Brimstone, or Astra as Primary Smokers
Although Harbor’s abilities are useful, he falls short when it comes to providing extensive smoke coverage. He can only deploy one smoke per round, and it dissipates quickly. Therefore, it is advisable for the team to have Omen, Brimstone, or Astra as a primary smoker to compensate for this limitation.
