12.  Strogg

Strogg officially has Peeker registered as an emotional support animal.

Strogg has a unique playstyle for a Quake character, prioritizing a predatory, stealthier approach.  His passive allows him to eat capsules that drop from enemies he kills which heal him, meaning that he can be difficult to wear down if he’s getting kills.  Strogg’s ability camouflages his position and gives him direct control of a flying Peeker drone, which has a effective gun and can charge at a spot to detonate and do considerable damage.  This allows a good Strogg player to always shift a fight in his favor before even engaging himself, meaning that a clever Strogg player will be able to stay healthy without risking himself contesting healing items on the map.

Unfortunately, in competitive play, this act is very tough to pull off.  His camouflage is not hard to spot when you are close to his position, he cannot move while his ability is active, and his Peeker drone is made of tissue paper.  Against a skilled opponent, a fight with Strogg mainly involves taking out his drone with a single shot, but the same can also be done to Strogg himself, as engaging Peeker gives away his position if you know it was activated recently.
