cuz astra is goated on post plant, can lurk, can solo anchor a site and can make plays for waylay raze
- Can smoke everywhere in the map
- You have 5 smokes compared to other smoker who only have 2.
- One of the best ult in the game
- Good lurker
It's just put a star down, look at that star and press E. Nothing complicated
You unfortunately don't know ball. Dissapate star count as smoke, same way you count jett smoke as smoke.
i think our ranked teammates are the only people that count jett smokes as smokes, simply because they don't want to play smokes
is jett a smoke agent now? are you comparing jetts number of smokes to brims? jett doesnt not have two smokes. she has two "smokes" they are cool, but the ability is so different to actual smoke agents
Everything you said has not changed since 11.08. None of it explains why there has been a shift from omen to astra
She has low-cost utility for defaulting, her recall is a like a Jett smoke that recharges every 20 seconds and you can use many of them. The utility nerfs that were introduced in 11.08 make them more necessary than before
With the initiator nerfs you can take map control by Astra by pulling back the stars. JoshRT said that in redbull HG interview.
experimenting with omen/util nerfs prob. astra star collect is pgood to quick reposition/pressure without actually spending utility
meow meow meow, nerfs mean less util. astra has big range so can help cover more places to compensate less util. the end
