TenZ on Sunset the map that got his foot cemented on the box in market
i asked about this recently https://www.vlr.gg/614919/patmen-breeze-watchers-come
most people just said it was his general gamesense, not mastery of the agent
Not a map but my favorite use of Omen utility ever is when Riens and Boo combined their ults to win a 2v4 in a play that can only be described as an Omen trailer moment
gold 1 sg
on attack smokes are just used normally, idk how to explain it + some oneways like the lotus a backsite one, abyss a site bridge, apparently the breeze two tall box can be onewayed but i dont use it
spike smokes when sticking, when retaking flood smokes can be used/site smokes to split site and make it easier to push certain areas
on defense i just cover the entry choke with the smoke and maybe site smoke sometimes to play gay
paranoia on attack usually used to blind specific areas for duelists (abyss b site, sunset b site, ramps on split)
paranoia on defense usually used to slow down entry
if i’m on defense and on the wrong site i usually just save it to confirm a kill or for the postplant 1v1
teleports on attack used to entry behind duelists/get behind defenders (usually combo with paranoia)
in the postplant i use it to play offangles sometimes (sunset a site tall box), or to reposition (tp behind the site boxes from the tall box)
on defense i usually use it to get into one and dones (the haven art box that allows you to hold default) or just mindfuckery in the postplant
also some stuff like smoking the lotus b site boxes and tping into it/behind it on heaven to try and get one or two in backsite
on attack i use ult to entry site (clear backsite) or very rarely to clear specific areas leading up to site (on haven a, instead of tping on the box in the corner below heaven, tp to close right from a long and pinch the defender holding a long with my team)
and the usual grab spike whatever bullshit
on defense i use it for info/rotate/tp into weird areas after entry (haven c site close left from main maybe)
If you are Gold don't play Omen. Play Clove or something, Omen will be only useful if you are in a team that communicate very well and have a good timing. If you blind for them and your duelists still stuck in main because they are scared to death then your Blind is now useless.
Maybe play Omen when you are in mid or high Immortal.
i love it when i come to a vlr thread asking for omen mains to give me advice and a self-proclaimed ascendant overlord tells me to play clove
my duelists tell me to blind for them we have voices
not hopping off omen unless it’s breeze i might try and onetrick harbour on breeze
Bro i also play in SG there are barely comms in low Immortal let alone "Gold" if you think you can thrive, sure go for it. you are going to understand what i meam when you face the exact situation i just said and think why i did not listen to him 😹

i have 158h in this elo over the past 3 acts so i think i know what i’m talking about
Having 159 hours in Silver/Gold isnt a flex bro 😹. Theres a reason you main Omen and still cant rank up but you are not ready to hear the truth
its not even the gunplay. its the impact that you give as an Omen isnt enough because lack of comms (maybe its not you maybe its the team) that makes Omen not viable for low rank. I will stand on this hill and if you still disagree, sure. Agree to disagree but if you are more open up, you can ask high rank about this discussion and hear them out.
Just watch Bang vods to understand the role more he is one of the better players who uses the util very well
