Ace is an Attacker operator from Norway. His special gadget is the S.E.L.M.A. Aqua Breacher, a cylinder which expands and breaches holes in walls, ceilings and hatches. <\/p>\n

While it can only explode one time on ceilings and hatches, it will roll down for up to three explosions on walls – knocking out practically entire walls and creating huge new lines of sight. It can also be used to destroy other people’s gadgets on maps. <\/p>\n
