I like to look for things that constitute to my squad's strengths or weaknesses by asking them first before assigning them roles and kits, but in the case that they aren't too sure themselves, i try to read their personalities and mannerisms in and before combat and kinda hope that it matches them right.
This is really simple, yet really smart.

You can both do this tactically - by assigning specific roles to specific psychologies, e.g., an AR to the person who aims/positions himself the best - and also strategically - by determining the personalities of your squad and adapting the playstyle of your squad accordingly.

I must admit - the least I play the worse SL I've become (it's quite logical actually). Rarely do I think about this stuff nowadays. I think the general apathy has also hit and degraded me. I'm at that level that I didn't even sign up for PRT because of fearing for my lack of motivation towards this game (tho I still hod it very dear to my heart, and I fear it always will be like that). Damn, just noticed a pattern of "I'es " in my speech, I sure am a fucking egoist by the looks of it.

I don't tell squads and squad members what to do, I tell them what needs to be done, and let them impress me with their ingenuity.

Necropost but important one, because recently there are a lot of tension between SLs and new players.
