What characters should you choose for a five-man match, what do you think? I believe that for a good game you do not need to exceed the limit of 1 duelist in the pool, you must have sage and brimstone. Now I'm leaning towards to choise: 1 duelist, Sage, Brimstone, Cypher and Britch. What do you choose when playing as a team? It will be interesting to see.

Personally I think having as many self healers is probably meta right now. I'm probably going to get slated for this, but you got to hear me out with my reasoning:
Sage, Phoenix, Reina, Omen, Raze (Cypher is also a good idea, probably swap out Omen and Raze)
Sage is the only healer, and I think that she is needed on the team otherwise people get no heals, so I guess this is as self-explanatory as possible. The reason why I picked Reina and Phoenix, is that they are both very good for healing (because they can self heal so Sage can funnel to the other two agents), but also very dependant (both have visibility blocking). The last two were honestly what I think are best meta right now, but as I said you can put Cypher in for the last two.
Idk, interesting post though :)
I mean it really depends on the map but I quite liked G2's lineups in the recent tourneys which were:
Haven/Bind/Ascent
Omen, Jett, Sova, Cypher, Sage
Split
Omen, Jett, Raze, Cypher, Sage
but also quite a lot of teams run with flashes (Breach/Phoenix) instead of the Jett, I'm still not sure what is better but no matter which way you choose both agent choices just open up a load of space for their team, whether it's a dash or a flash, so not a huge difference.
I think if I had to make my own lineups I would go with Raze>Jett on Bind, Breach>Sova on Haven and Breach>Jett on Split though (comparing to G2's comps)
