Do you guys think his ability to plant from a distance will bring a new post plant meta?

a harbor bubble, and astra/viper lineups

Fast retakes while hearing the plant could go wrong way faster bc would be 5x5 instead 5x4 (1 guy planting)

I genuinely don't think anyone will use this character. His abilities are kind of ass in comparison with other initiators. Plus, if you send the spike in and the ability dies it's just free info and easy rotation for defense.

Nah, as easy to counter as putting a kj molly on site, which you basically already do

I really like his skills. The plant guy can be used some as skye dog, his ult is amazing and pickup habilites to use again can be game change

nah ion think the plant feature is too great except if ur in a clutch scenario and can play off their team swinging the planter

the defuse mechanic on the other hand seems hella busted

the wingman will very rarely be used to plant, unless the attackers have a huge read

harbour + gekko 2v2 post plant is so op
wingman defuses and harbour cove
even if they kill wingman it should get at least half before it dies and if they go for the player the wingman will defuse

When harbor release we all: agent suck.

1-2months in -> agent meta already in some maps.

The same thing will happen with gekko. Just give teams time tô try new comps and ways to play it.

people hugely overestimating gekko plant. Its risky unless you have someone come and help him cause ppl will immediately try to target him so the spike is lost on site.

The fact that he can defuse is so insanely fucking broken its insane

if its a 1v1 situation, where the spike is halved, the Gekko player will just win the round 9/10 times if they have their wingman.

The attacker will have to kill the defnder in three seconds without knowing where he could be positioned relative to the spike

it is so broken its crazy, everyone will have to play kayo for post plants

I just don't think the planting thing is too op in general unless we're talking about a clutch situation, when it actually does acquire a lot of value. Same with the defusing even tho I think it only defuses half, but yeah

he has a well rounded kit, he has a bigger breach aftershock, a flash, a raze roomba/skye dog hybrid, and a mobile detain

As long as the bird can’t tank a viper molly/shock dart it shouldn’t be too broken
