	Psi-Operatives are less than stellar at low levels, but can become your star soldiers at end-game, mostly due to their ability to learn many more abilities than other troops with enough time. You should try to avoid your Psi-Operatives being hit, since wound recovery time cuts in to training, so spending time in the infirmary sets them back more than your other troops. It may be best to leave the Psi-Ops at home until they've trained 3 or 4 abilities. At the same time, late game operatives can be used as an off tank as they have immunities, life steal and once-per-mission "I will not die whatever you throw at me" with Sustain.

It may be best to leave the Psi-Ops at home until they've trained 3 or 4 abilities. At the same time, late game operatives can be used as an off tank as they have multiple innate immunities, life steal and once-per-mission "I will not die whatever you throw at me" with Sustain. Fortress is especially impressive against ADVENT Purifiers, whose only means of inflicting damage are completely shut down by said immunities.

	Notable combos are Insanity/Schism and Void Rift/Schism. Insanity/Schism is a modest combo, turning Insanity from a dubiously reliable disable in to a reliable damage ability as well. A Void Rift with Schism at high levels has a very high chance of not only damaging multiple enemies, but also disorienting or panicking them, damaging them further AND buffing further damage to them through the Rupture effect.

	Other notable abilities are Solace, which allows your Psi-Op to counter Mind Control from enemies you can't disorient or kill (enemy Avatars in particular), and Inspire, which is a great Get Out Of Jail Free card when you really need a soldier to either retry a vital action that missed, or get out of a bad situation. Stasis is absolutely great way to keep a dangerous enemy disabled for a turn. Dominate is also excellent, allowing you to grab a high health enemy like a Gatekeeper or Andromedon to soak up enemy fire for you, while simultaneously depriving your enemy of that powerful unit (though be aware that if the enemy kills a dominated Andromedon, its suit will reanimate under enemy control and immediately attack you). And do not forget Null Lance- a damaging ability that tends to one shot well over half of the enemy types and is area of effect.

Stasis is absolutely great way to keep a dangerous enemy disabled for a turn, and with Stasis Shield it can also save an ally that's nearly dead and about to take more damage than you can heal in one turn.
