Omen’s pick rate is not that great at higher lobbies. He has only two smokes, and they take time to travel. His other alternative, Astra, is a way better choice. At present, the pick rate of Omen is 4.9%. Even his teleportation is not as fast as Chamber.

Skills

Chamber's Rendezvous ability will allow players to travel between two points faster than agents with similar skills to Jett and Yoru.

Omen vs Chamber: Comparison between the two agents

Omen and Chamber in Valorant are designed for different purposes. Being a Controller, Omen helps his teammates take control of a particular part of the map with his smokes and paranoia.

Chamber, on the other hand, is a Sentinel. His task is to get the intel of his opponents and let his teammates know about the same. But his abilities are so good that aggressive players will be having a great time playing this agent. His Ultimate ability is one of the most unique out there, equipping him with a bolt action sniper.
