Valorant’s Next Agent Needs to be from a Country Long Ignored by Riot

When it comes to first-person shooters, one name that pops up in your head immediately is Valorant. Since 2020, this game has been making its fanbase larger and larger. With its intricate maps, captivating tactical gameplay, and brilliant optimization on all systems, this game has won everyone’s hearts.

But there is another reason why this game has seen so much success, and that is its diverse agent roster. Right now, this Riot Games shooter features a diverse roster of a total of 26 agents. Speculations always build around these agents, their nerfs and buffs, and many more. These 26 agents come from different countries. So, which obvious country is missing out?

Riot Games Should Bring an Agent in Valorant from Italy

We have seen how many countries have their representatives in Valorant. Be it Morocco, Germany, India, or Australia, many well-known nations boast an agent in the game. The United States even has three agents in the game (Brimstone, Viper, and Gekko). Still, some popular countries are missing out on this list. But there is one country that stands out amongst those missed nations, and that is Italy.

Italian gaming characters have a fair share of their craze in the gaming fraternity. Be it Ezio Auditore da Firenze from Assassin’s Creed or Tommy Vercetti from the legendary GTA Vice City, Italian fictional gaming characters are something else. Even the OGs like Mario and Luigi from Super Mario Bros. and Agent 47 from Hitman are from Italy. So, a game like Valorant badly needs an agent from the same country.

Another reason for adding an Italian agent is for one of its maps. Ascent is one of the popular maps in the game, which is situated in Venice, Italy. This map is very important as it is connected with the game’s lore in many ways like the Kingdom’s Radianite Springs can be found on the A Lobby Wall.

Which Ultimate Ability Will the Agent Have?

Right now, there are a lot of unique Ultimate abilities in every agent’s kit. Be it tracking locations, pulling enemies in a 1v1 arena, jamming the primary weapons of the enemies, or capturing them in a cocoon, the roster almost has it all. Still, there are some ults that we can create for this hypothetical Italian agent.

One made-up ult can be playing for the opponents. He can distract them and reveal their locations, blocking them and restricting them from killing his original team. This would be pretty exciting, right? But if Riot surfaces this, they will make sure that it won’t be on competitive circuits.

Another ult can be having the ability to spawn random credits all around the map in midmatch. Players will have an opportunity to buy weapons keeping in mind the current scenario or the enemy tactics.

Or he should have an Ultimate ability where darkness engulfs the whole map, making it harder for the enemies to shoot that agent. On the other hand, the Italian agent will have better visibility on the enemies or some highlighted markups on them.
