Assault
Bangalore
Smoke launcher, a speed boost when shot at and a Rolling Thunder artillery strike. A soldier's soldier.
Should you main Bangalore?
Bangalore is an Assault legend: Double Time speeds her when shot, Smoke Launcher blocks vision, and Rolling Thunder is an artillery ultimate that zones a fight. She wins gunfights inside her smoke and forces teams off of lanes with the ult.
Good Bangalore players smoke for themselves and teammates with purpose — not random clouds that blind both sides. She pairs with teammates who have thermal or other smoke-fight tools, and she shines in mid-range AR fights.
Main Bangalore if you like gunplay first and utility that supports a push or a reset. Learn smoke lineups that cut sniper sightlines without cutting your own. Ult to split a third party or to cover a revive, not only as a panic button when you are already downed.
Smoke the sniper line or the revive, then fight at the edge of the cloud where your muzzle flash is harder to track. Rolling Thunder should split a third party or claim a zone in final ring — dumping it on a team that already has cover wastes the biggest tool in your kit.
