can't decide which class to play
If you have to ask then elementalist, preferably tempest. They have good disengage if you take the proper utilities, excellent support via healing, can sucker punch an enemy with chill and interrupt a rez with water focus 5 (canceling out of a rez is hard so if they have the sense to dodge likely won’t anyway), good condition pressure and fire aura with fire, and earth for gap closing, further stacking immobilize, and sharing reflect via earth attunement and the aftershock utility. You’ll want to switch out aftershock for flash freeze depending on the enemy comp. If you see some rangers nearby don’t be afraid to lightning flash to them if possible, lightning flash doesn’t cancel your overloads and even if they get the rez people are rezzed at half health while the rezzer and his pet will have to eat your overload. Revenant can do this strat with phase traversal and staff 2 or 5 depending on the environment and potential buffs the rezzer has.
Dueling is hard but still possible especially against DH’s and some rangers and skills don’t smoothly link or cancel into as lots of stuff worth doing is charged.
Take either cleric’s or mender’s. I personally never run cleric’s but it’s the most popular.
If you must decide between the listed classes it depends. Use thief if you find yourself in a low mobility comp or against something like two guardians and three necros so you can backcap forcing some of them to retake that node, bail, then plus one someone’s duel. Overall however I’d have to say engineer. Despite the nerfs they’re still a great class and is an excellent point holder and team support. They can lay combo fields that others can trigger for great healing. Thief has some good combo fields for blind and stealth (on a revenant or ele I love using blast finishers like water dagger 3 or revenant staff 4 on a thief’s pistol 5 field) that can be useful too, but is typically powerless to generate good AoE cleanses and heals if the team needs it.

I really think it would help your team more to focus on some nice support classes like Mercy or Tracer Lucio. Also, pick up a tank like Winston at the least.
Everyone wants to be that bamf Mcree or Genji and go full DPS, and then they wonder why they’re gunned down for escorts.

I tried Winston his lightning gun is too unreliable. I really found Lucio quite fun however. McCree is awesome and it’s easier to be accurate with him since you know you have six per clip you want to make those count.
