fr though I have no clue at what point in the decision making process you flip the switch between agro and hugging the med with gunboats. If im stuck on shotgun coming off of last it feels/flows naturally personally but i definitely notice when i couldve been back in the fight or at least more effective spam/meat shield if i had gunboats but cant connect the dots.

the only difference between pocket and roamer is how big of a buff you get before you bomb in to trade with an enemy soldier

If your team is aggressing, your job is to jump forwards and get their team to look away from your combo without dying.
If their team is aggressing, your job is to sit near your medic and help kill the things that fight your combo (usually bombing soldiers)
gunboats is a thing to be able to take space more effectively, that's why some soldiers will run banner on last holds because there's not much space to be taken unless teams go down 2+ people (rare when the team on last has offclasses)

ok fr tho 200 dtpm isnt actually a good thing lol ideally on pocket u want to be the one jumping through first and fading to the side so they need to look at u, and not shoot at ur scout/demo/med who are trying to get through behind you
if ur used to shotgun pocket u can just babysit the med when the enemy team is pushing or on mid and clean up soldiers who jump ur med/demo, while being able to walljump and go deep in order to make space when need be (when ur pushing)

baiter pocket theory go brrrr
obviously u wanna do as much damage as u can without being a bot and standing in a choke but having high damage taken definitely is not inherently a bad thing, i looked at my team's localhost logs out of curiosity and and besides rolls (winning team doesn't take much damage) most invite pockets would take 260-300 damage/min and be at the top or second of damage taken
good damage ratio + low damage taken (e.g., 240dpm 200dtm) usually means u aren't making enough space and are slightly baiting ur team (making them get shot at more), but if its a slow match all damage numbers get skewed downwards so it can be fine
