Who should play Astra

Suited to players who like planning rounds, cutting sightlines for the team and calling where to go. Astra places Stars from Astral Form and turns them into smokes (Nebula), concussions (Nova Pulse) or a pull that leaves players Vulnerable (Gravity Well), so most of her work is done from a map view.
