VALORANT Episode 5 Act 2: New Agent - Mage
So far, all we know about Riot’s newest agent is their codename: Mage. A lot of players are convinced that this newest agent is from India and is named Varun Batra. A teaser of this can be found on the training range.
Players have speculated that Varun Batra will be a Controller, as the last Controller to be released was Astra. Alongside this, it’d be nice to have a new Controller to potentially shake up the meta on some maps and change the way players look at strategies.
