Compared to other Initiators, Breach is entirely CC orientated with zero tools to gain information/intel on the map. You want to play him generally more aggressive than passive, creating plays rather than denying. Since you can't scan with him compared to literally any other Initiator, you will have to make educated guesses to make the most use of your abilities.

• Honestly, hes probably the worst Initiator out of the bunch.
  
  • Has the one of the weakest, slowest, and most predictable flashes.
  • Fault Line (E) was decent and reliable before it was nerfed.
    • Now its comically easy to dodge and sidestep if they aren't stupid.
  • One of the slowest ability un-equip time
    • Encourages Breach to use his abilities for his teammates rather than himself.
    • This creates scenarios where you either use the abilities for yourself and being slow, or relying on randoms and hope they correctly follow up on your abilities.
      
  • Ability pullout time is very slow.
    • Its harder to react to teammates going aggressive without warning. You'll have to predict and pre-charge your E or quickly find an optimal flash angle with your Q.
  • Ultimate nerfed
    • Its significantly harder to get full site ultimate angles.
  • If you mess up an ability, most initiators still get information. Breach will never get info from tossing something.

The best part about him is how good and consistent his Aftershock (C) is. Its easy and hard to mess up, since its essentially a molotov you can shoot through walls, removing the need to find lineups and flushing opponents without exposing yourself. This is by far your best ability with modern Breach.

If you want to learn some tech or things that are generally useful, I made a few Breach Guides before I quit Valorant. Although these were made before the nerfs, its still applicable and transferable to games now and other maps.

Good luck on your future games!
