Who exactly is Rin Yagami?

Rin is Hayato's sister and a member of the once-powerful Yagami clan, known for their exceptional mastery of flame and shadows. This legacy is reflected in her aggressive yet calculated play style.

Gale of Kunai: Rin's Counter - Defensive 

Rin's main ability is the highly effective Gale of Kunai, a brand-new, passive ability, useful in maps where Gloo walls dominate. Here are the key mechanics behind this powerful new ability:

• Automatic Targeting: This ability doesn't require the player to press any buttons to fire or aim, firing “Kunai”, which automatically lock onto the enemies or Gloo walls. The moment Rin aims down her sights by opening up the ADS, the stored Kunai will automatically lock on to the enemies or Gloo walls, freeing the player's focus up for shooting.
• Kunai Generation: One Kunai regenerates every 8 seconds and is stored for later use. Rin can store 3 Kunai at max, at any given time. The regenerated Kunai float around Rin, providing a visual cue to the player, but more importantly, also to their enemies.
• Gloo Wall Counter: Gloo walls have long been a reliable counter-defence; however, with Rin's Gale of Kunai, the mid-game meta has been shaken up! Each Kunai bolt does 16 damage to Gloo Walls. All three Kunai being fired at once can deal 48 damage to Gloo walls, significantly weakening even those Gloo walls reinforced by pets like the Robo. This forces your enemies to either abandon their resources or waste resources rebuilding them, leaving them at a significant disadvantage.
• Damage Multiplier: The damage inflicted upon the enemies by the Kunai is dependent on the distance between the enemy and Rin. In a nutshell, the further away the enemy is, the greater the damage inflicted by the Kunai. This makes Rin a game-changer in mid-range fights, forcing enemies who try to hide behind cover out into the open.
• Kunai Regen Cooldown: As powerful as the Kunai may be, they're meant to be used strategically with an 8-second regeneration period for each Kunai. Players must be very tactful with their use of Kunai, saving them for breaching walls and forcing enemies out of cover.

Recommended Loadouts for Rin

To make the best use of Rin's Kunai abilities, her loadout needs to have weapons suited for mid and close-range encounters with decent recoil. Here are some recommended loadouts:

• AN94: Decent recoil and good range make it an ideal choice for mid-range engagements.
• M60 (Newer Version): Low recoil gives it a steady aim and allows it to continuously deal damage, at mid and close ranges.
• UMP: A highly mobile SMG that syncs well with Rin's aggressive playstyle.

Strategies for Rin Mains

Rin might just be one of the most powerful characters in the game right now, with her impressive offensive capabilities, but to use her to her fullest, you need to follow a few tactics:

• Breach and Push: When playing Rin. First, aim at an enemy's Gloo wall to launch the Kunai to weaken it. While the Kunai are in flight, begin shooting at the enemies. This combined pressure from the enemies and your bullets will force the opposing team to leave cover, leaving them vulnerable for a swift push.
• Focus on mid-range engagements: Due to the Kunai's distance-damage multiplier, you should try to focus on and seek out mid-range engagements to deal your enemies the maximum possible damage.
• Flanker's Edge: Use Rin to apply pressure from the front with Kunai, by destroying the enemy team's Gloo wall cover, and at the same time send an additional teammate from an unexpected angle, flanking the enemy as they scramble from cover, and getting a few easy kills.

Character Combos with Rin

Rin is highly-suited for offensive and forward-pushing playstyles and strategies and should be used with characters which offer increased mobility, survivability and damage inflicted. Here are some of the best characters to pair Rin up with:

Alok

Alok can offer a substantial boost to Rin's effectiveness with his high movement speed and healing aura ability, allowing her to stay engaged for increased periods, and to quickly rotate after firing Kunai.

Jota

His HP recovery after each kill allows for longer engagements and complements Rin's push-heavy style.

Dasha

With her recoil minimization, Dasha allows Rin to be more accurate and agile, allowing for quick rotations and better mid-range engagements.

Rin's Strengths and Weaknesses

Rin's playstyle makes her an absolute beast for forward pushes and counter-defence; however, she also has a few weaknesses you should be aware of:

Strengths:

1. Gloo Wall Counter: She is currently the best counter against Gloo walls, with her passive, Gale of Kunai ability.
2. Cover Destroyer: She is excellent for forcing enemies out of cover and snatching your team a few easy kills.

Weaknesses:

1. Vulnerable in Close-Quarters: Kunai damage multiplier and regeneration cooldown put her at a severe disadvantage when faced face-to-face with a shotgun user.
2. Kunai Cooldown: You need to pace your Kunai use, due to the 8-second-long regeneration timer on each Kunai, leaving a Rin, who has used all 3 of her Kunai, temporarily vulnerable.
