[2020] Opinions on Oryx

Originally posted by circle.: Void Edge has been out for a few days now, what is everyones opinion on Oryx?

Personally for me, I find him not very useful. I understand why Ubisoft did this, but I don't like how he loses 10 HP every time he smashes through a wall, that in combination with him getting a bit disoriented aswell as not swapping to his weapon immediately, it really seems like anyone with an impact can just do his job better. In addition, I find his weaponry rather poor, with the MP5 being his main primary weapon of choice, its lack of damage as well as the ACOG makes it unenjoyable to play in my opinion, because what really makes the MP5 good is its ACOG. ( Im not saying give him an ACOG ) They could have possibly gave him something thats not incredibly strong, but better than the MP5.

As for his ability to jump up hatches, this seems to be the only real good thing about him, unfortunately though it doesn't seem to make up for his other downsides in my opinion.

What is everyone elses thoughts on Oryx? I'm open to different opinions.

EDIT: I also forgot that he can counter shields, which is another good thing about him.

What primary weapon do you feel would best suit his kit?
