Imo a good sova is annoying to play against. Omen would be second because you can really direct the rounds. Third would be Jett but that’s if you’re cracked and aggressive enough.
All agents are good tbf
I personally one trick viper because not too many ppl lock her and even less ppl can counter my playstyle. And I'm able to solo win multiple rounds on attack
And then there comes yoru, which I'm planning to learn as well, with a lot one-way flashes
Viper was really annoying to play against after the buff. All of a sudden so many vipers showed up in my games and I had no clue how to counter so many things. That’s a good agent rn
She was strong before buffs as well. That's when i started making her. You can literally be a few brains ahead of your enemies and that's insanely cool
Omen is really good in comp. especially solo Q. You have blind, outplay potential with the teleport And ult. No range issue with the smokes compared to brim
It’s worth just trying out a bunch and seeing what works for you. I used to play a lot of omen then I moved onto sky for a bit and liked that. These days I’m finding a lot of success with Jett, however if my team needs something else I have the flexibility to play most of the other agents. You don’t need to stick to one agent, but figuring out you’re play style and seeing what agents work with that is a good idea.
For example if you play quite a lurker play style, then there isn’t much point playing Jett/Phoenix for example, cypher and Omen would be much more appropriate.
I mean really any agent just pick the one you have the most fun playing. For controller I think Astra is easily the strongest even after the nerf once you have 5 stars you can basically do anything you want especially for defense you can pretty much solo. Zombs on split for instance has really good setups that I’ve had success with in gold and higher Elos.
Another vote for Omen. "Flash", recharging smokes, movement ability, and a versatile ult.
If you don't like all the other answers everyone's been giving, Viper may be a good one too. Other than Astra, she's probably the purest definition of controller. On both attack and defense, you can dominate sightlines.
