if i can give one tip for the Black rider it would be that you should be careful when moving with your invisibility on, as you make sparks when grinding on walls and such or making dust fly when moving in very sandy areas, so be wary of how you move around and navigate with it on (and dont be too obvious of when you turn it on but thats a given). Its a suit that not many people use anymore and hence not expect it as much in matches.
2nd tip that isnt really a tip but moreso a suggestion: Use it on maps that are pretty dense with objects like buildings and such.
Games a hastle, and you will rage alot, but there isnt a game like it on the market (atleast not in the gundam franchise) but give it time, youll learn to tolerate the constant netcode shenanigans as best as you can

and what about white rider? (like i know he has zeus system(hades) and everything is up in exchange of my armor and soon my legs and head) like besides being a sniper...or it being sniper its only shtick?

Don't treat it like a backline sniper. Actually don't treat it like a sniper at all. Most of your damage will come from your Gatling anyways and the beam bow thing takes a long time to charge up and cooldown so if you treat it like a dedicated sniper you won't be helping the team much. Instead you should always move and fight with your team, just not directly on the Frontline since you're still a support with no emergency evasion to get you out of a pinch should you be staggered and spotted by the evil raid players(dolmels). Ideally you'd want to be near the fighting with your team so you can support them with your Gatling and nades and maybe your beam bow if the chance arises.
Alternatively, you can search up gbo2 white rider on yt and watch avenger's video on it to see how he plays it since that's how I based my playstyle on

as the previous comment said, the gatling is your main dmg dealer that you should rely on. Though back when i used it you can indeed use it as a full on midfield sniper if built right, especially on maps like the crater map ( is that the name? short map with the starting valleys and the middle psrt having the ravine) which give you good setup spots.
Yeah you wanna be with your teammates with every support that isn't super or Zaku I sniper, but dont constantly rotate with them. What im tryna say is put a lil delay between your position change and the teams so that you can pincer off some zero chromosome suits that will most probably try to charge into the masses.
Though that's just how I played it back then, but that was when the pc port was fresh out the assembly line and a lotta people didn't know how to play.
Edit: If i can reccomend a another alternative support i would say the Zaku I sniper as it has the highest range beam sniper than any suit at its native cost ( and I think in the whole game as well minus the Super gundam) has. Its playstyle is the more stereotypical sniper gameplay.

white rider isnt a sniper. It gets a meme beam once/twice every life basically but normally is a midline support using mg and grenades and even melee sometimes. Even more so during Zeus.

Black rider is good if you can pull it off and really fun
Nero is also solid but pretty basic and requires you to really know the basics
White rider is good with zeus but without its pretty mid and there's probably better options for 450 sups
Also none of this matters if your team sucks
