A way to make Astra more playable in solo queues

Astra is an agent that requires a lot of communication and solo queues rarely provide that. This idea below could help with that

To make Astra more playable on solo queues, whenever Astra uses her star, a little indicator on your teammates screen and minimap show the location of the star and the type of ability you used with it.

Ex: you used Gravitational Well and your teammates screen have an icon showing and pointing towards the Gravitational Well, while their minimap also shows the location of the Gravitational Well.

This would help your teammates know whether or not it's safe to rush or fall back depending on the Astra's actions.

What do you guys think?

No comms in competitive is quite frankly super annoying.

I have been playing VALORANT a whole lot more lately since I am still stuck in quarantine, and after playing more than 100 competitive games this season (you can check for proof [here](https://tracker.gg/valorant/profile/riot/PropertyOfToas...
