Omen Tips And Tricks – How To Win
The best way to use Omen is to sneak around the map and flank enemies from different positions. Players can also use Omen to create misdirection and confuse enemies.
Players can use the Dark cover ability to make the enemy team think that you are coming from another part of the map. This can give the player’s team the time to rotate and attack from another part of the map.
As for Paranoia, it’s like a flashbang that blinds enemies for a while. However, in this case, Omen throws a dark orb that goes throw walls and any opponent player that touches it will temporarily be blinded.
Use the Shrouded Step to teleport Omen to a higher point and take out enemies from there. However, players will be exposed from such a position so it’s recommended to either use Paranoia to temporarily blind enemies or use Dark Cover to protect your self while you teleport.
From The Shadows is the ultimate ability for Omen. While it may seem tempting to use it as soon as it’s charged but, there is more to it. Since every enemy player will know that you are teleporting, use it to teleport to a safe position. The first position the enemies will look will be behind them, keep that in consideration while teleporting.
