I started R6 this season. I got ranked halfway through. The first 20 matches were good, but then came the stagnation around copper 1,2.
I'm currently bronze 5, and would like to know what is normal. I played FPS-s before but never seriously so my aim isn't good.
To start things off, Rooks purpose is very similar Doc's or Thunderbird's. It's survivability. But he's terrible at that. Just like Thunderbird tbh. The main reason is one of Siege's most important mechanic. One shot headshot. But touching this mechanic is risky competitive play wise. My implementation of actual Serious Protection is that defenders above 60% HP (this can be modified for balancing) can tank headshots with Rook armor on. But they in K.O. state which is like downed but you can't see or move . So you can't escape into cover or call out to your teammates. Only teammates can revive you in this state. No Doc or Thunderbird. Reviving also take longer, but you can stay in this state for longer.
Let me know if you like this idea, or not? And include why pls? I just think that Rook is soo simple, and deserves to be better.
