On Wednesday, the 24th, Valorant introduced a new agent named Clove. Journalists from the Mais Esports portal interviewed renowned Riot Games analyst Guilherme "spacca" Spacca to understand how the new character could impact the meta-game and competitiveness within the game.

Spacca, evaluating Clove prospects in the competitive scene, noted that Riot Games faces certain difficulties in integrating the latest agents into the competitive environment. According to the expert, this is because teams prefer established strategies and play styles, and introducing new characters requires time for adaptation.

However, Spacca is confident that Clove may have its advantages within a team lineup due to its unique abilities. He noted that one of the key points is the ability to use abilities even after death, which opens up new tactical possibilities for players.

At the same time, the expert pointed out that Clove abilities are not strong enough to compete with agents like Omen in terms of control and executing tactical tasks.

The new agent Clove has been available to players on Valorant servers since its official release last Wednesday.
