Dancing in the Shadows: Mastering the Light Class in The Finals
In the neon-lit arenas of The Finals, no class moves quite like the Light. Fragile yet agile, these masters of deception rely on cunning tactics and precise movement to outwit and outplay their opponents. But how do you unlock the true potential of this shadowy class? Let’s delve into the art of building and maneuvering a Light champion:
Building for Success:
- The Ghostly Approach: Opt for the Cloaking Device specialization for invisibility-based flanks and escapes. Pair it with the Vanishing Bomb to create diversionary chaos, and Smoke Grenades for strategic cover.
- The Ambush Specialist: Choose the Grappling Hook for unexpected angles and verticality. Complement it with the Stun Gun to disable heavy enemies, and Breach Charges to open up strategic pathways.
- The Utility Master: Utilize the Glitch Grenades to disrupt enemy electronics and create openings. Combine them with Motion Sensors for advanced intel gathering, and Goo Grenades for area denial and crowd control.
Shadowboxing 101:
- Hit and Run: Your strength lies in quick strikes and swift retreats. Don’t linger in open areas, and use your high mobility to exploit enemy blind spots.
- Master the Flank: Your agility allows for creative flanking maneuvers. Use unexpected routes, verticality, and the Cloaking Device to catch enemies off guard.
- Be the Bait: Sometimes, the best defense is a good offense. Use Vanishing Bombs or Glitch Grenades to lure enemies into traps or create distractions for your teammates.
Gadget Guru:
- Vanishing Bomb: Master the art of throwing and detonating for maximum confusion. Use it to create escape routes, block enemy pushes, or even fake your death.
- Smoke Grenades: Remember, smoke isn’t just for cover; use it to block sightlines, mask revives, and create opportunities for ambushes.
- Grappling Hook: Think beyond just reaching high places. Use it to reposition quickly, escape sticky situations, and even pull enemies off ledges.
- Glitch Grenades: Don’t just throw them randomly. Learn how to disable specific enemy equipment and structures for tactical advantages.
Beyond the Shadows:
- Map Knowledge: Every nook and cranny of the map is your playground. Know where to find cover, ambush points, and escape routes.
- Sound Cues: Train your ears to identify enemy footsteps, reloads, and ability activations to predict their movements.
- Teamwork Makes the Dream Work: Coordinate with your team to create distractions, cover flanks, and capitalize on opportunities you create.
The Light class is a dance of calculated aggression and deceptive maneuvers.
