Who is the best Operator for beginners?
I have just started playing this game, I'm loving it, I don't know why I didn't purchase it before. But one question remains, Who is the best operator for beginners? Thanks in advance! :steamhappy:

You put your plates on the ground at the beginning of the match and play anchor on site. Roaming would be really overwhelming at the beginning, so anchoring and trying to hold angles would be best for an absolute beginner.

For attackers, it is hard to recommend. I would say get a 3 armor 1 speed operator, so that you will last a bit longer in engagements. I first started playing Fuze for example. You can also play Thatcher, if you want to be extremely helpful to the hard breachers such as Ace, Thermite, Hibana or any op with Hard Breach Charge.

And welcome to the game! Community can be toxic sometimes, (avoid newcomers playlist) but it's a really fun experience once you play a bit.

Rook for defense and probably sledge for attack, simple and direct use gadgets that won't harm your own team

Also do not get discouraged by people telling this or that operator is trash. IMO operator gadgets are very situational. Sometimes they work wonders, sometimes not. What wins the game mostly is your strats and aiming. So it really doesn't matter which operator you pick, just pick one that you enjoy playing. Afterall you gotta have fun. Even Shield ops got hardcore nerfed in the last patch, I still play Blitz and it is much fun to me. (You will mostly hear from people Blitz is not viable etc. but once you carry, they shut up xD)

Kapkan on defence and sledge on attack. They are really good easy ops to work with and get used to the game with.. Only for the fact that if you choose any other op people would probably get mad at you cause they are important ops, but if they dont then i reckon Bandit and Jager are really good ones to get use to and their guns are pretty chill with recoil

I would say Doc, Jager, Rook or Kapkan on defence. They have the easiest jobs and their gadgets aren't the hardest to use. On attack, I would start off with a hard breacher like Thermite or Hibana, or go with Sledge. 9 times out of 10 the team is going to need a hard breacher, and it is not hard to use has all you gotta do is open the wall up. Sledge is a pretty good starting Op b/c his gadget is easy to use, and his L8 is a really good gun, just wished it had angled grip.

Thank You all, I chose Rook and Sledge. Rook has a lot of armor, so I can tank, I like to play more aggressive, And I am helping my teammates also! I have a descent aim but I can also hold angles pretty well. Sledge is surprisingly good, since he moves quicker, I can breach barricades and his AR is pretty good!

Btw, I wil NEVER EVER play newcomers again...

good choices :D

And yep quick match and then play Unranked because newcomer playlist is filled with smurfs and cheaters

I would say go with Fuze. He's got the most armor (3 stars) and a choice between good weapons (ak12) and a shield so it's really newcomer friendly.
