Agents

There are currently eight agents in-game with different abilities: Brimstone, Cypher, Jett, Omen, Phoenix, Sage, Sova, and Viper.

Each agent can use the same weapons. However, they have four abilities that are unique to them. The first one recharges itself, automatically over time. The second and third can be purchased at the beginning of rounds. The last one, called ultimate, charges with points. These points are acquired by making a kill, finishing a round, or using an orb.
