  1. 01Read the objective and enemy route before committing this operator.
  2. 02Use the first action to establish position or enable a teammate, not to chase low-value damage.
  3. 03End with cover, a protected lane, or a clear Rally route.

Recommended pairings

Loadout logic

Failure condition

Do not let a strong identity override mission fit. Rotate the roster when injuries, range, or objective pressure make the usual pairing unsafe.
