Summary & Playstyle

Winter Soldier is a duelist who combines precision shooting with utility from his cybernetic augmentations. He provides reliable mid-range damage and suppressive fire, excelling in team compositions that need consistent DPS. His grenades and tactical tools give him utility beyond raw damage. Players should leverage Winter Soldier’s range to control chokepoints and suppress enemy approaches. He pairs well with vanguards who can protect him, allowing him to lay down sustained fire safely. His damage consistency makes him a strong objective defender. His weaknesses are mobility and reliance on positioning. Dive duelists and burst strategists can exploit his lack of escape tools. With good protection, however, Winter Soldier is a solid backline anchor who pressures enemies with relentless firepower.
