New Lotus meta comp in my opinion after having a look at the changes will be
Raze
Fade
Omen
Breach
Killjoy/Chamber (Both seem like they will be really strong so i cant decide but i am a fan of the chamber pick)
Chamber imo doesn’t bring much value on this map in pro-play other than being a 2nd duelist (?)
KJ has the turret for defaults. despite losing almost half of its Lines-of-sight it can still hold down chokes on both attack and defense. And her other utils are just too useful.
Chamber on the other hand only has 1 trip that is easily broken AND super limited by the player movements.
KJ is still the best sentinel bc of the agent settings, just like how jett was the most OP duelist.
There's some great TP spots on the defensive side, so he can potentially bring value if you set him up with the op on A or C. You would have to play quite differently, enabling the chamber on defense and doing lots of contact walks on the attack (if you opt for double senti, something like the KRU Haven comp) but it's viable.
I can see different teams trying it, it would fit Zeta's play style for example.
That’s something new that I didn’t think about.
But imo Viper is very necessary for map controls, which is what many analysts called the “mini-game of Lotus”: control of neutral spaces is more valuable on this map than on any other maps.
I would sacrifice info for map controls but it might change later this year. lets see
