Initiator: "Initiators gather information and try to influence the movement of their opponents. Their abilities are about revealing enemy locations and forcing engagements to happen. That, or forcing the opposite team to disengage completely."
Her roombot lasts 10 seconds, will clear out multiple angles, make a sound indication from REALLY far away and if not shot will do a full 125+ damage. A lot of teams at First Strike if they did not use their Roombot to clear an angle/position used it to make sure they weren't getting quick flanked, which is another extreme benefit of the roombot as it gives an indication that someone is spotted. When you play on top of the two boxes in garage on Haven as Jett/Omen/Raze and the roombot can't physically damage you it will still make an indication that someone is there, out playing it is impossible.
Comparing this to Breach's Aftershock which is easy to dodge, doesn't do a lot of damage unless you literally don't move and on top of that the Aftershock has to be followed up by peeking otherwise they could fall back into place -- which is funny considering that Raze her roombot will make a sound and give away the position of a player causing them to fall back as they have been spotted, even when they're on top of boxes where he roombot can't reach it will make a sound indicating someone is there). On top of this Both breach his stun and flashes have to be capitalized on by teammates to be fully effective with unlike the roombot. Raze is so much more efficient at gathering information/clearing angles and forcing engagements than breach ever will be.
Of course Breach his strength lies mainly in his flashes but for pushing someone out of a corner/behind a wall Raze is the absolute queen, if her roombot wont do it her nade will do, always thought her kit was super weird for a "duelist" when all the other duelists have "weaker" versions of other agent roles their utility (Phoenix vs Brim molly, Reyna vs Omen flash, Jett vs Brim/Omen smokes etc.
Also honestly the best way to clear a whole bombsite is popping a raze ult and just walking into one 😂
