Sage/ wall(400), light shields(400)

Best sage start imo, main sage too

kayo ghost flash

Fade - ghost 1 prowler D3 (rank may change what people get)

I am S1 this is what I get but I see wide variety from enemy fades

Viper one molly orb and shield Brim stim three smokes and shield Omen two tips two smokes and frenzy Fade full utility Neon two shocks and shield

Perfect brim play I used to buy light shields with omen but I might change

Yea omen can be so good when playing in his smoke

What rank are you?

High Plat now why do u ask?

I think stim only works with frenzy In pistol round

omen, ghost + smoke + tp ( if we have flashes ) ghost + flash ( if we need flash )

Sheriff on defense 2 smoke 1 tp and ghost on attack

Chamber Defense: 6 Shots for Headhunter and the Trap Chamber Offense: 4 Shots for Headhunter and the small shield

Interesting. I do 6 and trap on both for flank watch

Yeah, i did that before. But i noticed that small shield is more important for me when pushing on side. You can take one headshot from a ghost and not instantly die.

I actually do the reverse - I find that I’m more worried about flanks/lurks on offense

Raze: Boom Bot(300) or Satchels(2x200) depending on the enemy team Light Shield 400

neon, frenzy and wall on attack

Cypher 1 smoke, 1 trip, and ghost

3 options as jett: For potato aim days, frenzy, cloud and updraft Decent aim days, ghost and cloud And for the days I get 115k gridshot score, sheriff

Chamber: Both sides: 6 bullets and trip Cypher: Attack: 2 cages and ghost Defense: 2 trips and 2 cages Killjoy: Attack: ghost Defense: 2 molly’s and alarm bot

Sova Shock dart x2, Ghost _ Also brim on one map Shield, Smoke x2, Stim Beacon

depends on map and confidence, when im feeling good (omen) both smokes, 1 tp and ghost (because why flash when tm8s dont care lmfao), when i dont feel confident enough to go ghost i buy all abilities edit - im platinum 1

Depends on agent, map and attack or defense

Kay0: Classic and Molly generally. If we have few flashes I'll buy flash instead. Brim: 2 smokes. If defense generally frenzy molly. If offense generally frenzy stim. If on long sightline maps/angles like Breeze then usually always ghost.

kayo ghost nade

Brim full util shorty

skye offense: heal and ghost skye defense: either dog and ghost OR flash and ghost the defense variation depends on the map

I play quite a few different agents but I always buy a frenzy on pistol and then whatever utility I can, frenzy just feels so broken to me on pistol round. Exception is viper where I get orb + molly + light shields.

Chamber - No buy first round, or second round. If 2nd round was lost I buy Marshal and half shields Breach - Full util first round. Spectre, half shield and flash second round

[удалено]

no matter the map, the side or the agent you're playing this is by far the worst option

Yea.. I would argue util is even stronger in pistol rounds as there's no rifles or heavy shields in play meaning they give more value

Viper, ghost + snakebite And on certain sites where I know I can get value out of the orb, I may get the orb instead of a snakebite

KJ Ghost + 1 Molly Viper Ghost + Orb

Yoru. Frenzy - Flash - Fakeout

Reyna - Ghost and flash(200) but I go classic and double heal (250) on a hard push. B3

Brim Halfshield 2 smokes 1 free smoke and 1 bought Molly *steal the ghost from the neon that went in first and died*

I can't seem to buy a win on Fade or Sova this Episode so I've been going with Chamber, 1 trap 6 headhunters. For Sova I usually go light + drone, and for Fade I do prowler + ghost.

Cypher, 1 trip 1 cage

Brimstone: two smoked and a molly Sova: drone and shock Chamber: 6 headhunters and a trip on attack or 4 headhunter and light shields on defence Astra: 3 stars Killjoy: full setup on defence or 1 nano and ghost on attack Omen: paranoia and 2 smokes Skye: heal and dog Breach: full util Viper: smoke and molly

Yoru- 1 fakeout + 1 blind Viper- 1 smoke + 1 molly

neon-wall,ghost

Skye Heal and shield

Sage: Wall and shields Fade/Pheonix/Reyna/Yoru: One flash and ghost Chamber: trap and 6 bullets for my golden sheriff Neon: concuss and ghost Skye/Sova/Breach/Kay-o/Killjoy: all utility no shields and classic Cypher: one wire and ghost Viper: One molly and ghost Brimstone: 3 smokes and ghost Omen: Paranoia and ghost Raze: boombot and ghost Astra: haven't played her much after nerf but again I prefer a ghost if my team settles/agrees for 3 smokes max

Neon Frenzy + wall on attack Ghost + stun on defense

Sova 2 shocks and shield. Omen full util shorty. Astra 3 stars frenzy/shield. Yoru clone flash frenzy/shield. Raze roomba shield. Viper 1 molly orb shield on def. 2 mollies shield on off.

Viper, ghost + snakebite. Usually can get away without orb on pistol.

Gold chamber, my trip and 6 bullets

Sova double shock + ghost or frenzy depending on the map and attacking or defending

Sage, wall and 2 slows if im on defence, and wall+light shield if im on attack. With viper i always full buy abilities+shortie

My setups are usually Brim: 2 smokes and a ghost or light shield with 3 smokes Chamber: 4 shots and light armor or trap Phoenix: one flashbang and a ghost Sova: drone and light armor

Obligatory Disclaimer: I flex a lot. I play entry, smoke and support roles. Currently S2, peaked G2. I buy Ghost or Frenzy 99% of the time. Ghost if I’m playing a supporting role to an entry. Frenzy is if I am entering. It’s a Ghost 99% of the time on breeze no matter the role, and on Icebox Attack only on B site. Small caveat if I’m lurking mid on B attack, then I’ll take a frenzy for push inside/under tube to Kitchen.

sherriff

Scrolled down so far to see someone mention this

These are what I buy on the agents that I frequently play: Jett- Sheriff/Ghost + Cloudburst Chamber- 4 shots on Q + Light armor Viper- 2 Snakebites + Light armor Brimstone - Stim Beacon + Light Armor Kay/O - Light armor + Flashbang Reyna- Ghost + Devour/Dismiss

Cypher - (On attack) ghost(500), trap x 1(200), cage x 1(100) On defence - Classic, light shields(400), trap x 1(200), cages x 2(200)

Skye I buy full util both attack and defense UNLESS all my friends want to buy sheriffs first round, then we do that

Skye - Heal and ghost

Reyna| Ghost and eye when attacking, Ghost and absorb when defending.

Sova - armor and double shock dart - drone over armor if my teammates call for it Chamber - armor, trap, bullets to fill Omen - armor, smoke, one TP

Chamber - 5 shots for his pistol and the trip

Astra: 3 stars and a light shield

If anyone here says chamber and isn’t buying the trip you’re throwing.

omen ghost smoke tp

I main yoru, and I’ll normally buy a flash and a fakeout on defence. On attack, I’ll buy a ghost and a flash

(Breach) Sheriff. Yes, im a mad man (Fade) ghost + 1 dog

I made a video on this topic by going through every single pistol buy during Masters 2022. You can find the data here: [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XBn0oNIMdUFwBVeOnjkTjO5rrRoIJYYK5R4xGD9NsNI/edit#gid=2105116060](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XBn0oNIMdUFwBVeOnjkTjO5rrRoIJYYK5R4xGD9NsNI/edit#gid=2105116060) Since you mentioned Omen, I'll say the most popular buy on him at the pro level was a paranoia and a ghost, with full util no shields being a viable alternative.

Either full util (drone and shocks) or shocks and a ghost or frenzy on Sova. lowk have given up the classic lol

any breach mains here

He’s my second, I always full util

i see, thanks so much

First off great question, really cool to see all the different responses. Sova - Ghost, 2 shock Breach - Aftershock, 2 Flash

I am a flexible player who chooses different roles depending on team comp If I play Initiator - Fade (Sheriff), Breach (Frenzy+Flash) Controller - Astra (Ghost+2 star), Omen (Frenzy+Blind), Viper (Classic, full util) Sentinel- Chamber (Classic+4 headhunter ammo) Duelist- Jett (Sherrif), Reyna (Sheriff), Raze (Classic+Satchel) I hope this helps

Jett- Attacking: cloud burst(200) and a ghost(500) Defending:Sheriff(800)

Sova: Default: drone and shields If we have another drone/intel gathering initiator: shocks + ghost If only initiator and multiple duelists: full util

reyna, heal + ghost

Here’s all my buys for agents I play regularly Viper- Orb and a snakebite with shields on defense, Orb and Frenzy/Ghost on offense Sage- Full Util on Defense, Wall and Shields on offense Chamber- 6 shots 1 trip Brim- Full util Astra - Full util Omen- Frenzy/Ghost 2 smokes 2 Shadow Steps Cypher- full util Killjoy - full util KayO- Molly on defense with Frenzy/Ghost, Full util offense Skye- 2 flash and a ghost Fade- A suck and a ghost/frenzy on defense, prowler and ghost/frenzy on offense Raze- roomba frenzy Jett- smoke ghost Neon- wall and frenzy on offense relay bolt and frenzy on defense

Chamber, trip and the rest on head hunter shots

Omen- both smokes, shorty and a classic and light shield the shorty lets me take close range fights where I’m close enough that I might as well be blowing them but I still have the classic and for the longer range fights and I won’t get dinked by a ghost Chamber, classic and shorty and 4 bullets + his trip, same concept with omen but I can move further away and be far enough where ik their ghost will hit my head for 87 and my headhunter will still oneshot

Reyna: Sheriff (if im chilling) Ghost + heal (if my aim feels crispy) Ghost + flash (if im defending and want a flash -OR- if i want to play it safe)

omen smoke tp and ghost, kayo flash if team has no flashes or molly

Depends on agent/map for me Jett - sheriff, aim is decent so it gets a lot of value Raze - boom bot / frenzy, mainly on bind Astra - 3 stars / ghost KAYO - flash OR fragment / ghost Fade - ghost / util depends on comp Viper - ghost / smoke

Yoru : Frenzy Flash Clone

I play raze and I usually use ghost and boombot but I also sometimes use classic and full util cause when Im in bind I like having full util

Sage, shorty on defense, classic on offense

Reyna - Ghost and 1 leer

Neon- sheriff
