USC: Counterforce places a strong emphasis on teamwork and coordination.
When forming your squad, ensure a good balance of different classes and abilities to cover various roles on the battlefield. Experiment with different combinations and adapt your squad composition based on the objectives and challenges you face during each encounter.
A Medic for example who is versed in BIOChemistry to make sure your squad does get out of it alive is a great pick.

Take the time to familiarize yourself with the maps, and study key locations, chokepoints, and objective areas. Understanding the layout will allow you to plan strategies, find advantageous positions, and anticipate enemy movements.
The Pull/Push of objects will become your biggest friend.

For example, you can use a cryo weapon to build up enough frost to freeze a target and shatter/instakill it with a high-impact attack.
