A few days ago, Blood Strike introduced a new challenge that gave players the opportunity to unlock and try out their newest operator, VOX, for a few days before his official release. I decided to take advantage of the challenge and test him out for myself, and after spending some time with the character, the first statement that came to my mind was simple: “This character is lit as fvck!🔥” There is just something about VOX that immediately caught my attention. His entire design gives off a futuristic sci-fi vibe, while his style is giving serious Gen Z energy. Even his abilities are designed in a way that makes him feel different from the usual characters we are used to seeing in Battle Royale. His skills can be extremely useful in different situations, and honestly, VOX is almost everything I could ask for in a character. However, there is one thing I would change about him. If Blood Strike replaced one of his abilities with the Medic skill, I honestly think VOX would become one of, if not my favorite character in the game.
For those who don't play Blood Strike, or maybe haven't had the opportunity to test VOX yet, the character comes with two abilities, just like the other operators in the game. His first ability is the Location Expose skill, and this is probably the ability that caught my attention the most. When activated, it reveals the locations of enemies around you, and what makes it even more useful is that an enemy doesn't necessarily have to be standing in the open for you to find them. Even if the enemy is behind an obstacle or taking cover, their position can still be highlighted in red. This ability immediately reminded me of Valentina, who was actually one of my favorite characters back in my OG days of Blood Strike. Her ability to reveal enemy locations used to give me a huge advantage whenever I came across an enemy who tried to hide after taking damage. Normally, when an enemy disappears behind a wall, rock, or another obstacle, you have to guess where they are going or where they might peek from next. But when you already know their exact location, the entire situation changes because you can prepare yourself before they even make their next move. On the cover image of this video or post, depending on where you're checking from, the animation where VOX is holding that futuristic looking ball is actually the ability that reveals the locations of enemies within his range or barrier. And I can already imagine how useful this could become when fighting players who rely heavily on taking cover.
The second ability is the one you can see on the cover image where VOX is typing on something that looks like a futuristic keyboard. This ability gives him a speed boost, and immediately after activating it and watching him interact with the keyboard, he gets that boost in movement speed. At first, it might look like a simple ability, but movement speed is actually one of those things that can make a huge difference during a Battle Royale match. There are countless situations where you might need to reposition quickly, escape from an enemy, rotate into a safer area, or chase an enemy who is desperately trying to get away from you. Having that extra speed can help in all of these situations. Imagine you just damaged an enemy and instead of fighting you, they decide to run behind cover to heal. With the speed boost, you can close the distance faster and keep the pressure on them before they have enough time to recover. It can also work the other way around. If you're the one being chased or you're caught in a bad situation, activating the ability could give you enough speed to reach better cover or create enough distance to survive. So I completely understand why Blood Strike gave VOX this ability because it can definitely be useful in different sce
