Take a look at a list of all of Harbor’s abilities as the new agent’s kit is revealed!
Valorant Agent 21 is from India and he plays with water - the controller agent has been teased for quite some time but Riot recently unveiled Harbor's official Agent trailer, along with a preview of his abilities.
Harbor’s Agent trailer focused on his backstory - specifically how he got his abilities. But it also showed us what his abilities look like during a fight scene. And they look exciting and unique. Here are Harbor's abilities in Valorant.
Harbor’s abilities in Valorant
Harbor is an Indian agent, named Varun Batra. Hailing from India's coastal city of Mumbai, he wields the ability to manipulate water. Riot has also unveiled the new agent's abilities which highlight his ability to manipulate
High Tide
EQUIP a wall of water. FIRE to send the water forward along the ground. HOLD FIRE to guide the water in the direction of your crosshair, passing through the world, spawning a wall along the water’s path. ALT FIRE while bending to stop the water early. Players hit are SLOWED.
Harbor can fire a magnificient wall of water whose direction he can control by holding fire and moving his crosshair. It's important to note the High Tide passes through world, which means it can pass through walls allowing Harbor and his teammates to initiate on to bombsites.
Cove (Q)
EQUIP a sphere of shielding water. FIRE to throw. ALT FIRE to underhand throw. Upon impacting the ground, spawn a water shield that blocks bullets.
The Cove is Harbor's second ability. The Indian agent can use fire to throw a sphere of shield water. He can also do an underhand throw with Alt fire (usually right click).
The water shield prevents bullets from passing through, which can be very impactful in clutch situations. Harbor's playstyle would force enemies to either use abilities or push through the Cove to eliminate opponents.

EQUIP a wave of water. FIRE to send the wave rolling forward and through walls. RE-USE to stop the wave from moving further. Players hit are SLOWED.
Cascade is yet another wall-type ability. The wave of water goes in the direction of Harbor's aim and it passes through walls. Harbor players will need to reuse the ability in order to stop the wave from going further. Enemies impacted by the wave are slowed, while the standstill wave acts as a visual barrier.
Reckoning (X)
EQUIP the full power of your Artifact. FIRE to summon a geyser pool on the ground. Enemy players in the area are targeted by successive geyser strikes. Players caught within a strike are CONCUSSED.
Harbor's ultimate is an Area of Effect ability. Varun Batra's water manipulation skills allow him to summon a geyser pool at a specific area. This pool causes successive geyser strikes which concus enemy players. This ability is extremely useful in small, close areas such as bombsites or to clear out strong defensive positions.
