I’m pretty brain dead tbh (ascendant 1). I usually just play duelist and then sometimes I would fill smokes (I think smokes are pretty brain dead for the most part). Don’t get me wrong you can get pretty wild with omen and viper and do some high level plays, but basic smokes is brain dead.

I learned a lot about the game by filling initiator ngl. I started playing fade and I spent a good amount of time learning lineups on a few maps for premier league. The lineups didn’t workout tbh lol people shot them so quick. But playing fade taught me so much about timing and the game in general. The fulfillment I got from supporting my teammates with my utility and helping them get kills that won rounds made me feel so good lol. Just learn an initiator. We don’t get wrecked by shortys or judges anymore because I always have util to clear it and I’m not afraid to use it to clear our corners. And double initiator?? Run it.

Initiators aren’t hard to learn, but it does rely on timing and your duelists should play off your utility. Best of luck 🤘🏻
