[@ghostbravo7127]

@@HenryBackus Thorn is a worse intel op than Lesion, and that is a fact anyone with any success in the game can tell you. Just because you don't put Thorn on doors doesn't mean Thorn can't be comparable to Kapkan, who is also an intel op (unless you play against players so bad they actually die to Kapkan traps.) Almost every trap operator in this game is or has been made into an intel operator at the highest levels of play, however Lesion has consistently shined above the rest for years now.

[@architectssuck9957]

The best defenders are the ones we met along the way

[@cutieovo9943]

Being able to “counter” everything doesn’t make you a good op. Turburao doesn’t actually counter hard breaches, but rather delays them. It doesn’t counter tech, but rather delays it. Turburao isn’t a counter, but rather a time wasting op. And there are other, more effective operators to do that with. Kaid, and Bandit can actually counter aswell as delay enemies. Mira and Goyo are much better time wasting ops, and Mute is a much better counter op. Tuburao is unconventional to use, one of the least effective “counters” for hardbreaches, and a mid time wasting op. He is severely overrated here

[@TabbuEme]

Kaid's electricity needs time to activate and can be EMP'd. Tubarao on the other hand, can help with that, he's a good helper for both Bandit and Kaid. Time is a valuable resource.

Haven’t played in like 3 years so idk who any of these other people are, but Mute is (at least was) the easiest operator to learn the game with. Every time I got a friend to start seige, I’d tell them to just play Mute because you can’t be bad with him

[@theunholyangel2845]

Best op defense is mozzie or lesion mozzie because he can force players to go to expected places to drone and if they dont you get a free drone his guns are good both are useful the p10 and the commando and he has nitro and lesions guns even his sixSD shotgun is good if you know how close it can force players to shoot to give away their position when destroying his gu mines or you can hit them and take five damage and give away your position and if you cant pull it out you take 12 damage so even though people see multiple downsides to these ops they are extremely good if you actually play siege tactically
