Riot Games has revealed a new Duelist Agent, Iso, in the pipeline for VALORANT’s Episode 7: Act III, which is set for release on October 31, 2023. Although official details were scant, Mike, a known VALORANT leaker, has given us a preview of Iso’s abilities.
Iso’s Abilities
Ultimate: Kill Contract (X)
This unique ultimate ability allows Iso to create an interdimensional arena on the battlefield. He can throw a column of energy that pulls him and the first enemy it hits into the arena, where they must duel to the death.

Ability: Double Tap (E)
Iso can start a focus timer and, upon completion, enter a state where killing or damaging downed enemies produces an energy orb. Shooting this orb grants Iso a shield that can absorb a single instance of damage from any source.
