I call it the "Where the fuck is everyone."
Brimstone, Omen, Astra, Viper, and one other. 4 controllers so nobody can see shit and someone else to fuck with em. I like Breach and Raze because they capitalize on confusion (having no idea where to run), but really anybody will do.
Here's a list of the agents that are especially good at capitalizing when nobody can see shit:
Yoru, Cypher, Sova, Raze, Breach, Killjoy,
and within the group, Brimstone and Omen can capitalize the most, with their ultimates and Omen's teleport.
Yoru becomes much less vulnerable and a bit more viable when virtually everything is smoked off.
Cypher is also fucking broken with this because he adds 2 more smokes and pings people through anything. I call this variation "Where the fuck is- Oh they're right there"
Sova's shock darts and his ultimate are much harder to escape when you don't know where they're coming from. Plus, he can sometimes ping enemies with his drone and make sure enemies aren't in places that aren't smoked with his recon.
Raze can blow you up. and when you can't see her bouncing around, it's incredibly hard to shoot her. Plus a boom bot coming out of a smoke to instantly lock on to you and blow you up is terrifying.
Breach is just Breach. He can flash whatever isn't smoked 3 times in a row. He can stun everyone to high heaven. He can clear out areas that are smoked and even get kills off of it (when they have no idea what direction the charge is coming from, it's hard to leave it's AoE.)
Killjoy has alarmbots and mollies that can be triggered whenever, so when her shit is even more invisible, it's hard to shoot it or get away from it.
Brimstone has mollies that are, again, hard to get away from in smokes, and he can just ult the site while people don't know how to leave.
Omen can tp wherever he wants with almost no risk.
Most agents work pretty well with this strategy. Basically, it's an easy ten wins at least on attacking rounds.
To further emphasize how broken this team setup is:
4 given smokes and 4 smokes with recharge over time (so up to about 14 per round,) two vision blocking walls (and 1 of them blocks bullets) 3 mollies, a big ass blind, a fat smoke that deals poison damage (vipers pit), and on top of that, the abilities of whoever the hell else you feel like using (see above.)
Now mix in the added bonus of having:
1 guy that can go wherever the fuck he feels like (Omen)
1 guy that can send down a giant death laser while people have no idea where to run (Brim)
1 girl that can smoke shit from wherever she wants to (Astra)
1 girl who can molly shit with lineups twice to stall the defusers (Viper)
And somebody who can capitalize off of all of this.
And voila, you have pure fucking chaos.
