Can anyone tell should I main fade or sova in the current meta?

main whatever u like more
dont care about meta
agents like reyna and iso arnt meta but people get shit on in radiant by these non meta agents
i would say sova is easier to learn but its honestly personal preference
also dont go too crazy on learning lineups
you should have like 5 lineups per map for any agent max
or else youre not really learning the agent and just wasting time with cool funny geometry lineups
When it comes to maining you can typically choose a sub part of the roles and just play that, in this case it’s both sova and fade
As information based initiators
true, id honestly reccoment one tricking either sova or fade if your plat or below since if you one trick an agent, you will learn their capabilites and how to play around/with their util so you can focus on your aim
since if im being honest, plat and below just work on your aim and u can hit diamond
(as long as your not looking into the ground and are unaware of anything)
Very true, most people even up to asc have no game sense and purely have focused on mechanics
yeah
once ur like diamond then u start learning how to play the sub categories of agents n stuff
what is sub categories?
thanks btw
So you know how we divide the agents into categories like Initiator, sentinel etc.
We can divide these into further categories so for example initiators we have agents like sova, kayo, fade and breach
We can separate these into two categories since sova and fade are typically picked for their informational value while kayo and breach are more picked for their flashes for example.
We can hence say that the initiator class has two subcategories, one being information based and the other flashing based
This applies to every agent but there are different subcategories for every role in the game
ok
I would honestly say breach being the best, but if you want info, fade for lower ranks, sova for higher ranks. Skye is just nice because of her dog (info), bird (flash), and heal.
her ult also gives info
you're including way too many agents, no player should be playing that many at their peak elo if they are looking to improve
I’m giving options based on what they want the most out of an initiator
I’m not saying they should play all of them, they should pick one based on what they want out of their util, and master them. After they semi-master that agent, they can start diversifying into a duelist/controller/sentinel, or an initiator with a different kit
i have tried Skye but the nerfs made her worse so i was looking for another initiator
do you like skye?
becuase if you do you should play her
she isnt bad you just have to be more wary when using flashes
instead of just burning them fast
Skye is still a very good all around initiator
no other initiator has the variety of util she has
if you don’t really care about what type of initiator, I’d recommend breach
breach is mostly for helping teamates get kills
ngl breach is kinda bad since u generally need another info initator to pair with him
becuase having breach is like having no initiator
if you like breach though, go for it, however it isnt something i would reccomend
if yo ulike breach however, pick him up for sure
better to find an agent you like playing rather than a meta agent
