Should you main Rook?

Defender · GIGN · Support, Anchor

Rook (Julien Nizan) is a GIGN support anchor. Armor Packs drop plates for the whole team — better peek trades and more room to swing again after a gunfight.

What the Armor Pack does

  • Armor Pack drops plates teammates (and Rook) can pick up for extra health.
  • Drop it in prep so the stack is plated before first peeks.
  • Plated defenders win more equal peeks off spawn.

Loadout: MP5 or P90 for the primary, P9 or LFP586 for the secondary, and a Proximity Alarm or Impact Grenade.

Who should main Rook

  • New anchors who want simple, high-impact utility.
  • Stacks that take a lot of early peek gunfights.
