What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
- Suggests the addition of a weekly revolving rota of which SCPs get a breach tool upon being breached / spawning. Changing which ones get it from week to week.

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
- No idea.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
  • Increases which SCPs may be played in general for breaching, as people are more likely to play SCPs with breach tools.
  • Greater change in choice from when SCP-079 breaches an SCP, instead of always being locked into the same few they can choose more power.
  • More different SCPs on waiting for their breach, so more different SCPs for people to interact with.
  • Will weaken some of the stronger breach queue having SCPs (for the week(s) they're out of rotation)

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
  • Some SCPs will become weaker without a breach tool (intended, actually a positive in my eyes)

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
Yeah.

See above for all my points. Other than weakening some stronger SCPs (which isn't a bad thing imo) this would have no real negatives and would overall allow players to see a larger variety in breaches and general gameplay.
 
-support, this is just "forcing" players to play scp's that they dont really want to play and are overall bad.

Even though my suggestion partially relies on it, if you truly enjoy an SCP enough then a breach tool shouldn't change how much you want to play it.

And then if a breach tool does change it so much then you'll want to try the other SCPs.

When looking into what SCPs are powerful / played, you need to consider more than just the SCP player but also the players fighting it - players would enjoy fighting more varied breaches even if they're still being destroyed.

I don't think this will do what you think it will.

Consider SCP-457; 457 is among one of the worst breaches, DOES have breaching tools, and still no-one plays him.

SCPs that are bad won't see more play from this, this will exclusively be a buff if already-strong SCPs receive breaching tools during this rotation.

Now sure, 035 won't be breached during literally every CI Breach Raid and 079 breach, but they won't just breach an SCP because they have breach tools (notable by 457).
