Skye5.80%49.91%
Sova5.37%

Gekko

3.10%50.18%
Breach1.81%49.72%

So, even after the nerf, Skye remains the most picked agent. However, looking at the win rate, it's clear she's hard to master. Fade and Breach are less popular in ranked, with Fade being one of the newer agents. Gecko's pick rate, the latest addition among initiators, seems to be alright.

Iso3.60%49.39%
Phoenix3.50%50.62%
Yoru2.04%49.72%
Neon1.84%49.86%

After the queens Reyna, Jett and Raze, here comes the newest agent, Iso. His pick rate will probably decrease later, and it's currently where it is because he's new. Neon is overall the least popular duelist, but it must be noted that she can actually perform well on some maps.

Smoker

AgentPick RateWin Rate
Omen8.65%49.99%
Brimstone3.84%50.46%
Viper3.22%50.07%
Harbor0.70%49.82%

In ranked, Omen is by far the most popular smoker, thanks to his versatility and outplay potential.

Now, let's have a moment of silence for Harbor. 😔 In pro play, Harbor is actually played occasionally and he is very valuable for the team, especially when paired with a second smoker. However, he doesn't quite make the cut for most ranked players. Seems like his abilities don't bring enough excitement for them.

Sentinel

Cypher6.87%50.25%
Sage6.42%50.40%
Killjoy4.70%50.35%
Chamber3.97%50.08%
Deadlock0.97%50.66%

Well, the changes to Cypher were a hit – his pick rate in ranked has shot up, even beating out Sage. Let's see how he does in the upcoming VCT. On the flip side, Deadlock's buffs didn't quite do the trick. She's still unpopular. In higher ranks, some even accuse you of throwing when you pick Deadlock.
