why is iso op now?

why do people think he’s so good now? because of the automatic shield? sure it’s great against ops but I just don’t see how that makes him that good

go hop in ranked and see how he fundamentally changes how the game is played. some people think hes reyna 2.0 but trust me this character is gonna see a lot of play in vct the winners of each of these regional tourneys is just gonna be whoever can adapt first. probably the best character we have seen in the game since peak jett or beta raze hes better than peak chamber and peak viper just harder to fit into a meta comp.

Higher elo lobbies and in pro plays, it just takes one shot at the head most of the time, the ability to tank that is good ig?

There's a good Sean Gares video on this, he can probably explain it better than any of us can: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7lqHTSes6U

Second bullet inaccuracy fucks you up. The first bullet which is supposed to be an headshot is tanked by the shield. The second bullet goes way off and hits the wall behind him. The duel is favored for iso in every situation and a shield after each kill is busted.

No he’s just a sheep who heard tenz say he wasn’t that good on stream. I love SEN but tenz has been historically very wrong about how the game should be played at the top level, and I bet the teams that start integrating neon and iso will be better off. The way those two agents play make the game different. This like the death of dive in ow, you won’t see results right away but by next year it should all be different.

Or I could be wrong.

He said it’s dog shit in pro play. I’m not gonna time stamp it for you but it was yesterday.

very different things cause in ranked you would always have one guy who didnt really fill a role and iso is just the new and improved clove/reyna in that way

idk if he'll be meta in pro but he's busted in ranked, you're looking at it wrong if you think it's only good against ops. a better way of thinking of it is that it doubles the time to kill a person with a vandal/phantom, and if you're on phantom then it'd take 3 shots (rather than 2) to kill a person long range. also the one bullet difference gives the iso a HUGE advantage in his ult

on a side note, he's also really good against shotguns which is the only good part about this buff 🗿

He's gonna be great in pro play IMO. He's so strong that its like 2022 Chamber, you can't not play him.
