Harbor trailer shows his backstory and abilities
The trailer starts with two members of REALM, an organization from Alpha Earth, chasing Harbor on motorbikes on the streets of Delhi. He defeats one biker using his coin-like device that attaches to the member’s bike and detonates. He beats the other biker using his orb, forming an impenetrable water wall in front of the bike. Even though he defeats both REALM members, one of the fallen members starts shooting at him while he is escaping. As a result, he loses control of his bike and jumps off a cliff.
Following this, a flashback of two months ago is shown, where Harbor and another REALM member are seen stealing a relic. When Harbor gets into the vicinity of the relic, it attaches to him. Knowing that the relic is powerful, the other REALM agent points the gun at him and demands the relic. As soon as he starts shooting, the relic saves him by creating an impenetrable water wall. Since then, he has been running from REALM. The trailer concludes by showing Brimstone catching Harbor’s hand after he jumped off the cliff in the first half of the video.
Valorant Indian Agent Harbor abilities
As seen in the trailer, Harbor’s ability kit features an orb that can create a wall, like Phoenix and Viper, but impenetrable like Astra’s Cosmic Divide. Furthermore, based on the other teasers, it appears that he can also create a sphere-shaped water-based smoke. He is also seen using a coin-like device that could detonate.
In late August 2022, the abilities of Agent 21 (codenamed MAGE) were leaked on the internet. Following are the leaked abilities.
Bubble (E): EQUIP Bubble and enter into a phased state to place down a bubble by pressing the ability key. Activate to create an impenetrable bubble. Bullets cannot pass through.
Tartarus Pit (Q): EQUIP a Tartarus charger. FIRE to launch a shot that deals some damage and slows players within the zone.
Vision Taker (C): EQUIP a distortion wall launcher. FIRE to create a small line of distortion. Enemies will get briefly blinded if they walk through.
Golem (X): EQUIP the Golem doll. Fire to throw down. All teammates will get a regeneration buff, and enemies will get decay debuff.
Riot Games did not officially confirm whether the abilities are accurate. However, when compared to the Harbor trailer, the leaked abilities seem to be accurate. Although the leaked abilities might differ from the final release, it gives us a general idea of what to expect.
