Security Guard Guide

Why Security Guard is top tier

Most teams fail because they move blind. Security Guard fixes that problem while still carrying emergency peel through the taser.

Why this class is worth unlocking early

Security Guard keeps showing up in trend searches because it answers a real progression question: is this worth buying before or instead of another class?

The local research set supports a strong yes for most players because the class gives you:

• remote information before a chase starts
• a reliable emergency stun
• clearer rotations for the whole team, not just for yourself

That makes Security Guard one of the cleanest unlocks for players who want immediate team value instead of a more selfish survival tool.

What the class actually does well

Tablet value

The tablet matters most when it changes movement before the mistake happens. Its best value is not “I found the killer once.” Its best value is:

• calling the killer’s next likely route
• warning teammates off unsafe objectives
• helping loopers rotate toward real help instead of dead space

Taser value

The taser is not a panic button for every chase. It is strongest when used to save:

• a high-value objective
• a teammate who would otherwise create a wipe sequence
• a late-game path that the killer is about to close off

Why Security Guard is so important against Ennard

The Ennard matchup is the most important reason this page needs more than a short summary.

Local material points to a crucial wrinkle: disguised Ennard can appear as a friendly survivor marker on the tablet. That does not make Security Guard useless. It means the matchup changes from pure information advantage to information discipline.

The best response is:

• use the tablet for route planning
• do not trust a marker by itself
• verify strange teammate movement before walking into a grouped interaction

Best habits

• Call where the killer is going, not just where they were.
• Save taser for objective-saving moments.
• Treat tablet info carefully against Ennard because disguises can poison what looks safe.
• Use your information to move the team, not just yourself.

Common mistake

The biggest Security Guard mistake is playing like a spectator with a stun. If you only watch cameras and react late, you waste the class.

The class becomes top tier when you turn information into:

• earlier rotations
• cleaner saves
• fewer grouped mistakes
• more objective uptime for the rest of the team

Who should pick Security Guard

Security Guard is strongest for players who:

• like making calls
• notice route patterns quickly
• prefer reliable utility over flashy mechanics
• play with a squad that can actually use information well

If your team already has decent chase skill but keeps dying to bad rotations or late warnings, Security Guard is usually the most direct fix.
