could trade out cypher for another initiator for extra corner clear potential
Wym what's the vision, it's a pretty decent comp. Breach is shit but the deadlock alternative is actually interesting
i don't get the vision behind deadlock, usually the best thing to do is have a senti (typically cypher) hold B, one hold mid (either from defenders spawn or B link) and then fight at A, which is why I said neon breach since i don't think sova or fade are able to fight effectively
Omen is great for anchoring B, cypher is useless on A at high level. You have a shit ton on info on defense with this comp, with good amount of utility for potential retakes. U got double fast rotate and it's basically unstoppable on attack
Viper is just broken on this map. On defense u cover B+ mid with the wall, allows for fast mid rotates and strong mid pushes. The orb is a great piece of utility with multiple interesting spots on this map. Orbing A main is extremely strong if you're playing odin (you're dead if you enter the smoke on wrong timings) and you can also hold elbow very comfortably. On attack you can lurk heavily on either A or B with very strong walls. In particular on A, a good wall will put a lot of pressure on the defense and playing A link becomes suicidal
i think we need a fade in here somewhere, its just lotus again where theres so many good fade locations and too many corners for 1 drone
Yoru
Sova
Fade
Omen
Cypher
All these scan characters for all the wall bangs
jett/raze (raze in pro play if your opponent is gonna go cypher), could yoru but theres no bs insta rotate anymore so it doesnt work as well
fade (must have, theres so many corners and haunt locations)
omen (obv its omen), but could astra so you have more smokes (like on b)
viper (not as necessary if you play astra)/sova (if you do go astra)
cypher/vyse/deadlock (cypher first, could add vyse/dl in double senti
tldr for actual comps:
raze/yoru, fade, omen, viper, cypher
raze/jett, sova, fade, astra, cypher
raze/yoru, fade, omen/astra, cypher/vyse, deadlock
(maybe viable):
jett, sova, omen, viper, cypher (double ctrl, no fade tho)
jett/yoru, raze, fade, omen/astra, cypher (double duelist)
raze, fade, sova, omen, viper (double ini/ctrl, no full senti)
mostly headlining raze for counter-cypher who i think is gonna be meta, but if you dont go raze you need sova to break trips, which means less op fade
i expect someone to try killjoy but i dont think its gonna go well
Yoru (no question, compensates for the long rotate times on CT and overall a great duelist)
Omen/Astra (both equally good)
Fade (odin go brr)
Sova (odin go brr part 2, dont even need a flash init with yoru on the team)
Cypher (people are talking abt the trips but no one is mentioning the insane camera spots bro)
tmv is a genius
Omen, Sova, Yoru, Viper, Cypher
Omen - I considered Astra for a while because the global utility is very nice but the paranoia is so good for early fighting on defense which you have to do
Sova - I also considered Fade here, mainly because the prowlers in clearing a lot of the close corners this map has but I find sova dart to be more dynamic and fluent on the map, shocks are also very good for anti-cypher and are better for anti-cypher than prowlers.
Yoru - Pretty self explanatory, its a very large map, defenders take 26 seconds to rotate and Yoru is just generally insane right now. This map doesnt need vertical entries and Yoru bringing flashes is fantastic
Viper - I think this is for sure a viper map, there are a surplus of great walls that allow for insane lurks and can assist in holding down both sites but it helps a lot with A especially.
Cypher - I mean there are some absurd cypher trips and cams on this map, this is just a very good map for cypher.
Honorable mention: Tejo, this map is actually quite good for Tejo but because I believe this is such a viper heavy map running double initator double controller isnt really an option.
There's a lotta good options, pros will probably overall lean into Viper/Cypher/Yoru/Omen/Scans but there's also a lot of chance to cook for double sentinel, double scan initiator, Neon/Raze/Waylay + Yoru/Pheonix double duelist.
I think it's probably gonna be a bit like modern sunset where double senti and initiator look the strongest overall but everyone plays Viper instead for no reason but i do at least think Viper is actually good and not cope here, unlike sunset, even if she's probably not the strongest option for most teams; who should be leaning into their strengths.
For example, the top 4 of Toronto SHOULD be playing 4 entirely different styles of comps to their strengths on the map: PRX on Raze/Yoru built around Jingg and Something, FNC on Chamber/Vyse for Alfajer and Chronicle, WOL with Spring on Viper, G2 Fade + Sova/Tejo with Jonahp and Trent.
I think it’s gonna have a normal meta similar to other maps
For initiator I think this is 100% a fade map.
For duelist I think raze is criminally underrated.
For senti cypher easily best option.
Smokes is omen(no need for discussion).
For flex I can see kayo deadlock and viper being good on this map. (Preferably kayo or deadlock)
