With only two shots before having to reload, you'd better hit your target. Interestingly, the Shorty is classified as a sidearm rather than a shotgun in VALORA<br><br> <br>Breach's third ability is Fault Line. This is Breach's signature ability, which players must equip it first and charge it before firing. Fault Line creates an earthquake that disrupts players' movement and screens that can be fired through walls and cover. Like Breach's other abilities, the exact area it will hit can be seen on the mini-map in the corner of the screen. It can also be used to check corner like with Aftershock, but it is capable of friendly-f<br><br> <br>Both agents have vastly different abilities that help them locate players, but Sova is a must-have on any team.

It is a tripwire that can be set up by Cypher players that is invisible to enemy players until they get too close to it, and enemies that touch the tripwire that will be revealed to Cypher .

He can use a special shot to restrict enemy vision and teleport a short distance after a delay, akin to Reaper from Overwatch .
