flankers are essentially bots that go around the map and, instead of contesting popular spots like the center beacon, attack the enemy lines from the side or behind, causing the enemies to either break and seek cover, turn towards the flanker and expose themselves to the main body of the flanker's team, or die.

A good example is a Thunder Carnage, which can go around a map like dead city and attack the bots that are trying to capture mid. The high damage from two thunders will make quick work of the enemy and force the enemy to engage the thunder or risk losing all of the bots in the vicinity
