- With your multi-shot at range you focus Gene: Gene has low HP and a slow attack.
- With your multi-shot at range you focus Poco: Poco can barely defend himself.
- With your multi-shot at range you focus Gus: Gus is fragile once his shield is gone.
- With your multi-shot at range you focus Pam: Pam lacks mobility and her damage falls off at range.

Draft advice
Meeple is a reasonable middle pick — check which counters are still open before locking it.
Learn the pick-order logic in the drafting guide.
When not to pick
Skip Meeple when the map layout works against the marksman role, when an unfavourable matchup is still open on the enemy side, or when your team already has the same role covered.
