Community Concept: 'Hex' Lurking Controller for Valorant

A community member shared an original character concept for Valorant titled "Hex," designed as a lurking controller. The creator described the agent as a macro/lurk-based controller intended to provide strong map presence and support allies from any distance. The concept features a signature ability called "Dusk’s Veil," where the player equips a talisman to view a void and place hexes. Using the alternate fire button consumes these hexes to summon walls of tar that block vision between hexes within range. The creator noted the ability to place smokes in this manner feels unique yet simple, suggesting a maximum smoke length of around 25 meters, slightly less than half of a Viper wall. Additionally, the concept includes an ability named "Vigor Mortis," which allows the player to equip a hex and fire while targeting an ally to grant them a hex. The post was reuploaded to ensure proper credit for the artwork. This fan-made design highlights community interest in diverse controller playstyles, specifically focusing on long-range utility and map control without relying on traditional smoke placement methods. The creator invited feedback on the concept, emphasizing the fun aspect of the design process.
