M4 with Magnified A, Flash Hider and laser for a controllable rifle, ITA12S with Reflex A and laser as a pocket shotgun backup, and Impact EMP Grenades as the default utility.

Why it works

Flash Hider keeps the M4's vertical climb manageable through sustained fire, and Magnified A gives Striker the reach to confirm a target before committing; it's the same setup that works well for Maverick. The laser speeds up aiming down sights for the close trades that follow. The ITA12S adds real close-range destruction as a backup, with Reflex A and the laser for fast target acquisition.

Who it is best for

Players who want Impact EMP Grenades as the default utility: they disable cameras and gadgets on impact without needing a perfect throw, clearing the way for a push.

Attachment roles: the laser aids aiming speed, the angled grip aids reload speed, and the horizontal grip aids movement speed. Ubisoft attachment rework. Check available options in game.
