Valorant Episode 2 Act II Debuts New Agent "Astra"

Looking for a new agent to main? Valorant's latest agent Astra, has a versatile skillset that complements her ability as a controller.

Hailing from Ghana, Astra uses cosmic energy to control the battlefield. Her arsenal includes smokes, concussive pulses, and most interestingly, a gravity well that sucks players towards the center. Her ultimate is a massive wall that blocks bullets and dampens audio.


Here's a full rundown of her skillset:


C: Gravity Well

  • Place Stars in Astral Form (X)

  • ACTIVATE a Star to form a Gravity Well. Players in the area are pulled toward the center before it explodes, making all players still trapped inside fragile.


Q: Nova Pulse

  • Place Stars in Astral Form (X)

  • ACTIVATE a Star to detonate a Nova Pulse. The Nova Pulse charges briefly then strikes, concussing all players in its area.


E: Nebula

  • Place Stars in Astral Form (X)

  • ACTIVATE a Star to transform it into a Nebula (smoke).


F: Dissipate

  • Use (F) on a Star to Dissipate it, returning the star to be placed in a new location after a delay.

  • Dissipate briefly forms a fake Nebula at the Star’s location before returning.


X: Astral Form / Cosmic Divide

  • ACTIVATE to enter Astral Form where you can place Stars with PRIMARY FIRE. Stars can be reactivated later, transforming them into a Nova Pulse, Nebula, or Gravity Well.

  • When Cosmic Divide is charged, use SECONDARY FIRE in Astral Form to begin aiming it, then PRIMARY FIRE to select two locations. An infinite Cosmic Divide connects the two points you select. Cosmic Divide blocks bullets and heavily dampens audio.
