Cypher is another AllowedSentinel Agents, which gives him the ability to control specific areas of the map. Cypher is all about his gadgets and setting traps. He can put his Trapwire on the door and hold the enemy, or he can use his Spycam to keep tabs on blind spots. With his Ultimate, Cypher can even find out the locations of everyone in the enemy group, by scanning the nearest corpse.
To help you get the most out of Cypher's gadgets and where to put his traps, here are all his skills and a few tips on how to use them.
Ability: Trapwire
Place the stolen tripwired between the two walls. Vicious enemies are blocked and temporarily exposed. If the trap is not destroyed, it works to impress. It can be found.
Tips:
- Always use this ability where enemies can be seen. Even if they damage the trap before it's activated, it will still give you an extra clue where they are.
- If an attack, or Defense is trying to find a site, you can put this behind you to make sure no one tries to appear.
- If you need to deploy bombing sites you can take this ability and use it somewhere else, however, if Defense is sometimes a good idea to leave it, then the site you leave is unspecified when an enemy team is trying to infiltrate.
Skill: Cyber Cage

Throw a working trap away. Re-create a cage that lowers the enemy passing through it. Look for the trap and press USE to take it out, or hold ACTIVATE to do it all.
Tips:
- This is like a smoke screen that can be fired from a distance. It's good to slow down or slow down enemies, but it can also be good at providing union cover.
- In a tight spot, throw a cage down at the bomb site to allow you or his co-workers to filter or plant a bomb.
Signature Ability: Spycam
Place the camera at a distance. After placing, refresh the video feed view. Left click while you're in the camera to burn the track dart. Recapture when captured or killed.
Tips:
- You will be excessive when using the camera, so make sure you are in a safe place before you do.
- The follow-up line where the camera fires shows the positions of the player that have been hit by it until the player removes the dart from them. While this information is great, the dart can also be used to help fellow players. If you shoot an enemy on a rifle before your friend can handle it, the enemy can try to take it out quickly, giving a teammate a free shot.
- This camera is invisible when you don't use it, but it can still be shot if enemy players know where it is.
Final Power: Neural Theft
Release the details of the enemy's corpse, revealing the residence of their allies.
Tips:
- This ability will only reveal enemy locations temporarily so choose the time to use it properly. Some of the best times can be in Defense when you have to use a bomb site or Offense when trying to secure a bomb after planting.
