His abilities are very useful for clearing cozy corners on this map and help the team to get free site executions. On a three-site map like Haven, a good Controller like him can easily change the outcome of a round. Paste Magazine
Miks is Valorant’s 30th agent — a sound-based Controller from Croatia who launched on March 18, 2026 as part of Season 2026 Act 2. He is the first Controller in the game with a proper team heal, sitting alongside Sage and Skye as agents who can restore health rather than just deny vision. Prime Video

Best Miks Setups on Haven — Site by Site
A Site: When executing onto A Site, if enemies are holding the A Graffiti area, an M-Pulse lineup instantly stuns them — giving you or your teammates an easy kill and a free site entry with minimal exposure.
C Site: Players often hide at the back of C Site in the corners near the main entry point. A well-placed M-Pulse lineup clears this area instantly, giving your team an easy entry without peeking blind corners one by one.
Waveform Smokes — The Key Advantage: Miks’ Waveform smokes deploy instantly once activated — unlike Omen or Brimstone’s delayed orbs — making them especially powerful for fast A/B/C hits on Haven where split-second vision denial can decide a round entirely.
Bassquake Usage: On Haven, Bassquake sits between a Breach-style disruption ultimate and Harbor-like zone control — use it to blast defenders off anchor positions, cut through contested choke points between sites, or retake a site by knocking post-plant defenders off their angles. Prime Video
Valorant is a free-to-play 5v5 tactical shooter developed and published by Riot Games, released globally in June 2020 — with its ever-expanding 30-agent roster now featuring Miks as the most strategically versatile Controller yet introduced to the game.

FAQs
Q: Is Miks better than Omen on Haven in Valorant?
Miks offers a compelling alternative to Omen on Haven — his instant-deploy smokes, M-Pulse stuns for clearing corners, and unique team heal make him more support-oriented, while Omen’s paranoia and teleport still offer better solo-carry potential in ranked play. Prime Video
Q: What is the best use of Miks’ Bassquake ultimate on Haven?
On Haven, the best Bassquake placement is from outside C Long toward C site, clearing anchored defenders instantly — or from B Courtyard to cut rotations between B and A site, giving your team time to plant safely without challenge.
