The growing pool of Valorant agents expands further as Riot Games officially released its 24th agent ISO on October 31, 2023. This new release comes after a series of leaks, a reveal trailer, and a gameplay trailer. Episode 7 Act 3 is off to a great start, thanks to some crazy ISO play. The hired assassin is dominant enough in the Valorant lobbies. Now that we've played over a week full of ISO, let's take a look at his abilities, origins, tips and tricks in Valorant.

As a duelist, ISO was speculated to focus on gunplay and sharpshooting. With the reveal trailer, Riot cemented it and declared him as an assassin, but instead of resorting to weapons like Chamber, he's more focused on protecting you from enemy fire. Let's check out all of ISO's capabilities here:
You can equip this ability to mount a prismatic energy. When you're done, press fire to send an indestructible wall of energy forward. This wall blocks bullets and self-destructs after reaching the end point. Sound overwhelmed? Well, not your weapons, but you can still use your abilities through the wall. That makes it a little bearable, doesn't it?
ISO equips a molecular bolt that you can throw in one direction. It travels in a straight line, and the bolt applies a short fragile effect to any enemies it touches. This fragile effect applied by ISO is similar to Valorant agent Killjoy's alarm bot. You can throw this molecular bolt through any object. This includes boxes, structures or even walls.
