How would you describe your own playstyle?
I once did a thread like this a couple of years back, so I decided why not do it again?

As an Expert player I adapted to be a defensive/support role, moving from corner to corner and always trying to get vantage points where I can safely cover the rest of the team.

Regarding weapons and team composition, I can work with anything the team needs, but as of preference I usually use either dual Pistols or a Magnum as a primary weapon instead.

TL;DR: A defensive/support jack of all trades role.

I kill SI as soon as they spawn as long it doesn't make me or my team in danger, I usually use sniper and melee to do so.

I'm a bhopper but doesn't make me being solo rusher I always stick with the team.

In versus I love to aggro tank to melee him so my team can shoot him safely.

Used to be aggressive as hell.

Now I'm cautious almost to a fault, but... I rarely go down so it has its benefits.

A Roman Centurion, moving steadily but cautiously, making sure the group sticks together. I always try to preserve the supplies I have and gather more. When it comes to weapons I generally pick what my team doesn't have. This usually means I pick up the Military Sniper Rifle.

I just shoot the zombies man what do you want from me

I tend to use snipers and prioritize SI. I always carry adren if possible and will go for clutch saves no matter how suicidal it is. I tend to stay in the back of the group and focus on clearing teammates as they soak up the damage. I try to ensure everyone makes it to the rescue vehicle, to the point of throwing myself into a revive or defib if I can.

I don't know what myers-briggs type this makes me

Shotgun main + Magnum (double pistols if no Magnum)

I generally prefer to stay right in the middle of the team to cover both front and back, you will rarely see me ahead of the team unless it’s a crescendo event in which you have to activate some trigger to stop the infected from spawning.

I try to take care of the other teammates as much as I can... I think I am slightly leaning more towards defensive playstyle than pure offense although I can do that as well, it really depends on how the other 3 players play.

It seems I focus more on SI infected than common since I rarely if ever have top kill on commons but occasionally do place 2nd or even 1st SI killer. So idk what to make of that.

It depends on what I think my team is capable of. If I know they are moving fast I'll take mid point and try to help whoever is in the back. If I don't think they are at all capable of doing that mode / difficulty I generally play much more aggressively and riskily because the potential payoff for pulling it off will carry the team and give them a much easier time. Especially with bots.
