Meet Sova

Sova is a Russian Initiator who uses his bow and drone to find defenders before his team commits to a fight.

In the official RECKONING cinematic, Sova works alongside Omen and Cypher during an infiltration. His bow and scouting equipment support the operation.

Origin: Russia · Role: Initiator

Recon Bolt needs a clear view of the enemy to reveal them. Fly the drone from cover: while piloting it, Sova is left standing where you launched it.

Sova-inspired crosshair code

A blue center dot sits between four short, thick inner marks and four longer, thin outer lines. The two layers help you find the center, but cover more of the screen than a dot alone.
