About Chef d'Escadron Rouchard

Born into an old aristocratic family, Rouchard enlisted in the Gendarmerie Nationale at her first opportunity as a way to avoid compulsory enrollment at a notorious Swiss finishing school for young women. As Aspirant in the Gendarmerie, Rouchard quickly impressed her senior ranks by excelling in offensive strategy and hostage negotiations, but most of all, blade-based combat. Several promotions later she is best known by her moniker 'Le Couteau' (The Knife), although some would say this is because she can be a bit blunt at times. Today, Rouchard gets called in when no one else knows what to do.

It is but a scratch.

Pairing Chef d'Escadron Rouchard with your setup

This agent only appears when you play CT side, so pair it with a Terrorist agent in a similar palette if you want the look to hold up across a full match. At $25 it sits in the middle of the agent market. For a much cheaper Counter-Terrorist pick, Markus Delrow covers the same slot from $9.14.

More from Gendarmerie Nationale

How much does Chef d'Escadron Rouchard cost?
Chef d'Escadron Rouchard starts at about $25 on the open market, which puts it in the middle of the agent market. Agent prices move with supply from the operation they came from, so they drift more slowly than weapon skins but rarely fall far.
What side does Chef d'Escadron Rouchard play on?
Chef d'Escadron Rouchard is a Counter-Terrorist agent, so it only appears when you are on that side. Anyone building a full look needs a second agent for the Terrorist half of a match, otherwise the loadout falls apart every time sides swap.
Where does Chef d'Escadron Rouchard come from?
Chef d'Escadron Rouchard belongs to the Operation Riptide Agents, released in September 2021, and plays for Gendarmerie Nationale. Operation agents stop dropping once the operation ends, so the only route to one afterwards is the market.
Do agent skins change anything in the game?
No. Agents are purely cosmetic and every model shares the same hitboxes. The difference from a weapon skin is who sees it: your rifle finish is mostly for you, while your agent is the model everyone else in the match looks at, which is why it is worth matching to the rest of your loadout.
