I really like how even all Initiators are and think others roles in the game should try and emulate the balance they have. Each Initiator has a unique tool set that has pro and cons that make it so they are not a must pick on every map while still having a selection of maps they are good on. These pro and cons make it so there a choice to pick between initiators which forces players to make a choice of picking one but losing out on things the other may provide. Compared that to say duelist where you can pick Phoenix or you can pick an actually good agent.

For example

Sova dart is long range, highly versatile, infinite potential, and provides the best info but only provides info

Fade haunt provides a debuff to enemies that pairs with her prowlers and second best info tool but has a limited range and is the easiest to destroy

Kay/o knife covers small radius and doesnt give wallhacks but is long range, works through wall, and suppresses enemies

Skye bird has 2 charges, is a flash, and gives info but it provides the least specific info, and has limited control

Breach STUN

Things like also extend to the rest of their kits when choosing what exactly you want for a team comp and why you want it instead of just picking this agent because they are most meta. I do think breach needs a slight buff as in the last tournament even though he has a 30% pickrate his winnrate was only 45% or lower. Also Sova mains shut up Sova is still A tier and you bring shame to Sova by acting like a Jett main. He's been meta for 2 years let this thing called competition in his role and alternative picks exist.
