SOVA
Sova is the Initiator who reads the map before his team moves, shaped by the endless winter of Russia's tundra. He tracks, locates and takes down enemies with cold, merciless precision. His custom bow and sharp scouting abilities mean that running will not save you from being found.
Three wall-piercing sonic blasts from Hunter's Fury make Sova the definitive information-gathering initiator, whose skill ceiling depends entirely on recon bolt lineups. A pre-programmed bolt fired before an attack reveals the number and position of defenders before any teammate peeks. Owl Drone scouting charges through a site entrance to tag enemies with a tracker dart, and Shock Dart follow-ups punish tagged enemies or clear post-plant positions from safety. Hunter's Fury's sonic blasts deal damage and reveal hit enemies, proving deadly in post-plant stalls or long corridors. Sova demands map-specific practice, since every lineup is a learned skill. His value scales with game knowledge, making him the ideal second main for players ready to invest hours into preparation.← ALL AGENTS

ABILITIES AND SKILLS
Sova's bow fires arrows that ricochet off terrain. Hold fire to draw back for more power; the arrow releases when you let go. Alt fire cycles through how many terrain bounces the arrow makes.
Equip an owl drone. Fire to deploy it and take manual control of its movement. While controlling it, fire a marking dart that reveals any player it hits. Enemies can destroy the Owl Drone.
Equip a bow loaded with a shock bolt. Fire to launch the explosive bolt, which detonates on impact and damages nearby players. Hold fire to lengthen the projectile's range. Alt fire adds up to two bounces to the arrow.
Equip the recon bow. Fire to send the recon bolt ahead; it activates on impact and reveals nearby enemies within its line of sight. Enemies can destroy the bolt. Hold fire to extend range, and alt fire to add up to two bounces.
Equip a bow firing three long-range energy blasts that pierce walls. Fire to unleash a blast in a straight line in front of Sova, damaging and revealing enemies caught in it. The ability can be reused up to two more times while its timer runs.
