Iso

Iso is built to win one fight at a time:

• Contingency: pushes forward an indestructible wall of energy that blocks bullets. Secondary fire sends it more slowly. It lets you cross open ground without being hit, or take away a line of fire while you fight another enemy;
• Undercut: a bolt that goes through walls and applies Vulnerable (they take more damage) and Suppression (they cannot use abilities) to enemies hit, for a few seconds. You use it before a fight, on the corner where you expect an enemy;
• Double Tap (signature): after a short activation you get a shield that absorbs one hit, from any source. While it is active, enemies you kill or damage leave an orb: shooting it refreshes the shield;
• Kill Contract (ultimate): you drag yourself and one enemy into a separate arena, where you fight one on one. The winner returns to the match.

The common thread is simple: Iso chooses his fights and makes them easier for himself.

Pick Iso when:

• you are strong in fights and want a duelist who gives you a concrete edge in the first one: Double Tap's shield lets you survive a hit that would otherwise kill you;
• the team needs someone to face enemies with strong abilities: Undercut suppresses them, taking away their chance to escape or blind you;
• the map has open ground to cross, where Contingency creates moving cover;
• the enemy has a player who dominates the match (an Operator, a sentinel holding a site alone): Kill Contract pulls them into a fight with no help.

Iso rewards discipline: a well-prepared fight (Undercut, Double Tap active, peek) is very often a won fight.
