[@MrInfinity0911]

@@Ryanasuarusrex when you let your teammate die without trading them so you can get info

[@kazzavr]

For those who don't understand: Omen was a part of a program called "Shrouded step" where the directive was to kill a target you got assigned to kill. (I believe ISO was also a part of this program, as we saw in his reveal trailer that he had omen as a target but decided not to kill him, hence why he said "I quit" at the start of this cinematic.) Also, in this cinematic it got revealed that omen had viper as a target to kill, but failed and viper poisoned him and then started experimenting on him, this is how omen went from a person, to who he is now. Omen had no memory if the fact that viper made him into who he is, before this cinematic, but now he got flashbacks and now he knows that viper is the leading cause to his appearance and voice. This is also why he said "I will deliver it...Personally" because he now wants his revenge on viper.

[@hazelnacht]

If you look at the images, you can see that Viper used her toxins as self-defense, rendering Human Omen immobile so she had time to push him in the chamber and start the mechanism. If we based on the conversation between Omen and the Hourglass boss, this was at the time that Radianite wasn't public yet and not much info has been discovered about it. Sabine was the lead researcher, barely survived an assassination attempt, and probably had no idea what would happen if she pulled the lever (which she pulled on instinct). My theory is that when Omen worked for hourglass, the operation had him in a cover for months. Long enough for him to get high level clearance from Kingdom and be Sabine's assistant. He got close enough to Sabine for her to trust him, and this event was the catalyst that created the two agents we know now: Omen (from being split apart by the mechanism) and Viper (Sabine changing from the betrayal).

[@koovirok]

Tbh i don't think he wants revenge. in a recent voice message, he was angry not bcz viper killed him, but bcz she didn’t tell anything about it, seeing how he suffered on attempts to discover his past. He said "I'm not my past" or kinda like this, so I think he wants to... apologie mb? Clear up this misunderstanding at least. He's not a killer anymore and doesn't want to be him. He used to see viper as a teammate, not a target. Anyway I love valorant lore so badly and open to any discussion. Especially when riot gives us more questions then answers lol

[@EmiWi]

More evidence that Omen was a fellow contractor alongside Iso is that Iso asks Omen if it's true that every target he was assigned is always dealt with (or something along those lines) in a voiceline.

[@Mnngrrburger]

​@koovirok he is a killer tho

The name of this episode is the best part of this. Every episode ended in "-ion" and this chapter being the only one that broke that pattern and got named "Defiance" is a nice touch given the circumstances of this episodes context. This mission isn't anything related to keeping Valorant a secret or stopping Omega invasions, this missions is just to get Omen some answers, which isn't really necessary to VAL-Protocols interests. Knowing also that Viper has something to do with Omen's situation might also hint the beginning of an uncertain conflict that will break peace between them. Nice decision to do this.

This confirms how deeply Omen and Iso must be connecte in the lore. In Iso's Agent trailer we saw him working for the Hourglass company and getting Omen as his next target, to which he sighed. Now he says he has "questions for the boss" who wants him to kill Omen. Well, it also seems like he now knows a little more than Viper wants him to, which will be very interesting going forward. Can't wait to see more lore about these agents and the 'Omen incident' being crafted, it's really well made :3

So If I'm interpreting this properly, Omen was hired by Hourglass to kill Viper, but he missed and got radianite spilled on himself. Now that the air has poisonous lethal chemicals in it, Viper locks Omen in the room and puts the building on lockdown, however somehow the raidianite got ignited and blew up with Omen still trapped turning him into who, or should I say what he is now

[@davitofolixd]

So Viper's mollys are made with radianate? Cuz it's exactly like her molly She could use radianate for dmg I supose but it seems like a waste Anyway Viper created a demon

Viper being a villain of some sorts in this story doesn't surprise me but I feel for my boy omen 😭

[@barteksegiec8733]

To be honest, do not think she is an Villain, Omen was send out to kill her, and she looked at him with "fear" if you pay attention to shot with her eye on his mask. Personal theory? Omen was send out to kill her, but ended up hit with some type of new experiment, maybe to save him she turned him into what he is now, with is why she never told the truth, seeing how badly Omen hates what he is now.(Correction, the eye scene was Omen's not Viper's lol)

[@ccc34678]

Didn't omen try and kill viper though? It's already established that viper and omen knew each other so most likely they worked together and this proves that. Omen was undercover and tried to kill her and she locked him in that machine and turned him into what he is now. I guess

[@atharvathorat3664]

and one of those words will be : "hmmmmmmmm" 😆

[@epicnitrox]

For those of you who dont understand: Omen was sent to kill Viper to stop her from telling the world of the existence of radianite. However, Viper managed to trap omen in a box filled with radianite, which then (this is the part where it is just speculation) split omen into two, Iso and Omen. We think that Iso went back to the hourglass company (shown in this synematic), and only joined Valorant recently. However, Omen was forced to join Valorant by viper.

[@thundergunner4284]

Why Iso specifically? What makes you think he’s Omens other half?

[@timberland3220]

Its clear viper had something to do with omens “creation” so to speak, but I don’t know if iso has anything to do with it. It seems to me that omen worked for that guy before he became the agent we know today.

Finallly I ve searched an answer

[@xdphotonyx9542]

The way Sova says "Nowhere to run", so much passion and power in his voice, yet so genuine and soft. All of the Voice acting in this Cinematic was incredible and there's no doubt in my mind that Omen will get what he wants, especially if he keeps this up. This is one of if not my favorite cinematic and seeing Cypher actually do something is great. Not to mention the personality omen portrays even with just a grunt. Keep it up Riot. And add a replay system
