self-revive is a concept familiar to players of battle royale shooters. be it call of duty: warzone or top legends, the ability to revive yourself allows you to reunite with the mortal creatures and avenge your untimely demise. unlike battle royale games, tactical shooters usually don't include a self-revival ability for any valid reason. however, that seems to change with the addition of cloves, the 25th agent in valorant.
Valorant's Agent Clove is the latest versatile recruit 🫢 #gaming #valorant #shorts
if you go through our clove abilities guide you will learn that their ultimate, called not dead yet, allows them to revive themselves for a temporary period. you make the revival permanent if you score a goal or assist within a specified time.
currently the only agent that can perform a revival in the game is sage but is limited to bringing other agents back from the afterlife. although sage revives his teammate permanently, it always comes across as a support ability. it reminds me of the old lifeline in apex legends who could revive their teammates with doc. with the new perk system in apex legends lifeline got an upgrade (a big buff) that allows her to revive herself.
this makes me think, shouldn't sage get the ability to revive itself? while it may sound impractical to revive yourself as a sage in some scenarios, it wouldn't hurt to have the option. the community has long asked riot developers to implement self-revive on sage's ultimate.
