im lvl 400ich.. I block claymores with rook armors, i deny default plant with rook armors, i reveal attacker position with rook armor, now think again where you place your rook armors.

[@savagetay1953]

Tip for Ela, her Gadet interrupts the plant. If you can throw one during the plant sequence, can be a cheeky way to slow em down

[@petargudic8852]

Didnt know that. Good tip

[@Sean_Connery]

A C4 op would slow them down for good and likely have a better gadget than ela

[@juliusd3th3r4t7]

Tip for Frost If you have an elite skin i reccomend to set your gadget skin(frost mat) to default skin , because the chances of getting your bear trap of being spotted will decrease

[@hand13932]

its kind of a 50/50. the elite skin blends in SUPER well with barbed wire.

[@sgt.choper4650]

Other way around. I actually saw people run into my traps because they don't know how the elite one looks. And in some places the elite one blends in more.

[@brogurtt]

If you play Alibi you should do this too

[@vinnt_tnniv]

depending on where you use them, the elite can actually hide. in a place with more set up destruction or uneven floor, a perfect black rectangle might show off more than a spiked uneven mat favela, yacht, and challet are examples of this. there's so much going that a spiked mat won't be so off compared to the surroundings still, frost gadget was made to be pre-droned. good defenders will put them in places where attackers need to vault in, and good attackers will see it before hand. the mat is made to waste time and/or offset an attacker's aim, so depending on how you play, you actually might want the attackers to see your mat so you can flank them while they're shooting the mat just like most things in siege, your gadget isn't there to kill people, it's there to slow them down. kills are and extra if they're distracted

[@aezeryst]

i always found that kapkans elite trap blends with the door barriers

[@gypsywarrior5798]

The problem with wamai is that his gadget takes way to long to build up. After prep phase u have just one magnet, to denial more Utility you need to play him active and to expose you or peek which is dangerous. I think he needs a buff with his magnet

[@snakethen00b84]

Caveira mistake: using the smg

[@vaporstrike9319]

12:47 God, it feels good to hear someone say that. I was a Maestro main from the point he was released to the point where they added the punch nerf. It seems like anytime I point out that his cams are pretty much useless anymore, people like to pounce on me about it. Like, yeah, he has a good gun but man, the thing I loved most about him was his cams and them being nearly impossible to keep alive longer than 30 seconds into a round AND be useful has really made it frustrating to play him and it's nice to see someone acknowledge that.

[@bearnbunnyrl]

i love placing them above hatches so they HAVE to use an ash charge or something like that, they cant just punch it. still pretty weak though.

[@collinfant5146]

Have a thorn or ela place there gadget near it. Might fix the issue.

[@NorthernLaw_]

He has zero utility anymore. I play a wider range of operators now but Ubisoft ruined all my favorites. Blackbeard was nerfed into the ground, Ela was completely obliterated, Maestro was ruined, and Ash just became “that” pic so I stopped playing all of them. It’s sad because I enjoyed all their weapons and utility pre nerfs. I still to this day no longer touch any of them, truly sad

[@lockedongamingak]

As a Kapkan main, a mistake/tip for your traps is place them at the angle closest to the most common angle on doorways OR on the side of the door that is visually cluttered. Youll have traps go off far more consistently and get picks pretty regulalry if the enemy isnt expecting the traps

[@smhwolvi]

Another tip that I've used for kills is to place them slightly further out of site, everybody expects your traps to be on the bomb sites doorways and merely going out of that room and placing them on the next doorway could easily catch them off guard And when doing this they will be pretty far out of your reach so I'd recommend placing 2 traps on each doorway to fully down/kill them automatically. For site doorways I'll just put 1 for Intel purposes so I don't get flanked and die.

[@DiodeBeta]

Even further yet. You should be placing Kapkans at exterior entry points near spawns. With attackers able to switch ops too often the second the Kap callout happens a Brava gets swapped to. Having those traps on interior doorways can totally lock your team out of site or just catch them off guard as the rotate

[@yvanmaurouzel2798]

Even further tip a good idea from GGO place on trap in a visible spot so it gets shot an they let their guard down for the two on the opposite bottom corner (a trap that you avoid to fall into another)

[@philippweber3950]

I‘am a kapkan Main too, a usefull tip is also to Place a kapkan trap in a door BETWEEN the 2 bombs, in Late Game when the attackers are under stress they Never think of them and just push through the doors, even if its dont kill them it will damage them a lot and distract them so you or your mates have an easy Time to kill them. Also you can place Double traps at doors where You’re sure the attackers will come through and get a Safe kill

[@DiodeBeta]

@@philippweber3950 see I find this risky. Only because mid round if those get Brava'd, you are screwing your team. Obviously they have to run the op but I know I personally swap to Brava the second I see 2 defenders that I can hack the utility of, without question

[@NedInYaHead]

For Azami, another good option is to place it on the bottom corner of the door. The mantling animation serves a similar purpose to crouching, but it has the added benefit of acting like a static shield, meaning you can crouch behind it and peek around. As always, each have their benefits, but it's good to have more tools in your belt.

[@Dkarm26]

the attackers could also use it if they get control of that doorway tho, plus it means they can still stay looking head level when coming in and see you at the same time you see them

[@ProtoFreeze]

@@Dkarm26 impact grenade: 🗿

[@hand13932]

i never pack impacts@@ProtoFreeze

[@josephjack4365]

@@Dkarm26yea I’ve started using tools closer to the bomb. Deployable shields and other gadgets that attackers can also use can trap you. From the outside looking in, it’s easier to get a frag. That’s why I also hate head holes inside site. With an Acog as attacker, it’s like shooting fish in a barrel

[@manicvelocity3520]

Tip fir Fenrir: I personally like to hide mine in areas the enemy cant destroy without being exposed and looking away from potential peek points as well as being able to hide the mine under the rubble of destructible objects like desks and generally dont hide the mine in washing machines its better to put it in spots that dont inhibit the range of the circle although there is a couple nasty spots you can achieve using drone holes that can make the intersection of some hallways a living hell.

[@psychopiper8224]

Same. I really like the pillars outside of archive on Bank for this

[@mrautismo420]

Fenrir tip: place all 3 of them on the entry to cockpit in plane and pray you get defuser

[@THISfookindude]

low iq spot: above door frames. They usually have to just eat the blind because they’d have to turn around to shoot it

[@GameZedd01]

Second tip for Alibi: don't use cosmetic items. It'll be easy for the enemy to identify a hologram if it looks different from your character model

[@adrioumario1369]

made that mistake once. Never doing it again.

[@ireallydontknow278]

That won't really even matter as I see people shoot alibi prismas even thought they were the one who killed alibi so it doesn't really matter

[@jonsonlit8676]

It matters when you’re in higher elo

[@humbletoadfarmer]

@@ireallydontknow278 it’s a small thing, but if you’re holding an angle near a hologram and you look drastically different from it, attackers won’t hesitate to shoot you instead of the hologram. if they don’t have the intel to know which is which, it makes you that little bit more effective

[@ireallydontknow278]

@@humbletoadfarmer that is true but most of the time it won't really matter as it's either a dumbass who shoots it because he thinks it's real or them it's a dude who realises what the prisma is and doesn't shoot it hell I'm surprised people even fall for her gadget at this point even with default clothing and everything it's still pretty obvious

[@krisagnew347]

One fun way to play Valkyrie is to utilise her cameras like grenades, whenever you need to check a room toss a camera in and check it or get a dead teammate to check the camera then go in and drop the attacker. You can leave the camera where you threw it or go and pick it up for later.

[@darianbarber3763]

Downside is an attacker seeing a valk cam toss is alerted and can ping you for others or out swing you

[@kingcold2154]

With Fenrir I like the use the two inactive gadgets as bait. I put them in the open so defenders shoot them and think their clear till they get caught by the active I’ve got hidden around the corner

[@ianthelilbear]

yeah but that only works in high elo

[@psychopiper8224]

Is it really worth the waste of 2 activation codes for one or two successful hits with the last? Or are you implying that they use utility on them, which in that case the guy above me is right

[@kingcold2154]

@@psychopiper8224 usually they think like okay this dude is an idiot he put this right in the open and they destroy it and enter the doorway or window and get caught by the active that they can’t see and then you shoot them

[@psychopiper8224]

@@kingcold2154 I get that. But what I'm saying is: Is it worth the lost info of two other locations for your team (permanently, since 2 destroyed activated gadgets reduces your activation codes to 1)? You're trading valuable and precise intel on two other entry points for a couple frags in one spot at most. It feels like it's throwing the team play in the gutter just to get more kills imo

[@kingcold2154]

@@psychopiper8224 I activate 3 and leave the decoys inactive

[@EchotheProto514]

As someone who hasn't play the game in ages this helped get my mind thinking again on how to play right. Biggest issue recently has been forgetting how I used to play my favorite ops so well and with this I can def feel the creative juices flowing again. 10/10 will be back for references

[@redmist6630]

A lot if these tips arent that good in higher ranked. solis is the best anti-drone op and way more useful to your team when used to destroy all drones in the prep phase that hiding away just to get droned out later

[@Jompson]

i feel like the arunis directly on the wall made more sense when mav had nades

[@desmondleguay1969]

Small tip for mira, use your shotty to shoot out the general area on the wall you want to deploy the window before reinforcing (or after, from the other side) this will give you a slightly wider degree of vision by removing some rubble

[@GameZedd01]

Second tip for Kaid: His Electro Claw can actually electrocute 3 walls if placed central enough to the middle/centre wall.

[@HurricaneHVK]

I thought that was common knowledge?

[@adrioumario1369]

Third tip for Kaid : Your electoclaws can serve as Drone Denial if you electrify Barbed Wire (Also works with Bandit) If they drone through the electrify barbed wire, the drone gets destoyed, so...

@@HurricaneHVK You would be surprised how many people only electroclaw 2 walls when they could easily do 3

[@joshuabean9409]

[@HolyFlippinSmokes]

Another thing i see a lot of Kapkans not taking into account with their traps is thinking where the attackers would be looking when they enter the doorway. If they are going to most likely look left, then put the trap on the right. Such a simple tip but I've gotten so many more people with them after taking that into account

[@JPLYUKI]

Frost mats see a lot of use in pro league, but one mistake I see a lot is placing them in "default" spots, like under the bedroom windows in Clubhouse Gym/Bed. Think about placing your mats along the angles you'd hold as an attacker, think about placing them under rotates you have to vault through, think about stupid places you'd never expect to place a Frost mat. Best mat I've seen recently was actually behind a shield placed on top red on Clubhouse on a Gym/Bed defense. Attackers breached CCTV, defenders immediately fell back, and when Sledge swung CCTV and walked down top red ADSed, the moment he stepped behind the shield he got caught.

[@dudedude6892]

Oryx player here, the best prep phase preparation has (for me) always been to open every hatch that I MIGHT use, as well as thinking how that would affect the attackers, as some hatches may be beneficial to have open for the attackers.

[@jordyn-uwu]

most of the defender mistakes is just "you're placing utility in the wrong spots.

[@stoneraptor6219]

The lesion mistake isn’t exclusive to lesion mines either. I see so many people placing barbed wire in a way that might as well be useless because it doesn’t actually warn anyone in time

[@JustJames533]

For Azami, I place Kiba barriers just at the 5 second left mark during prep phase on the top of doorways with the addition of barbed wires, not only you force attackers to crouch and destroy the barbed wires which leaves them very exposed if they do or if they have utilities they may be forced to use it.

[@sjirko]

Tip for Kapkan: If you play roam you can put traps in places where the attackers are most likely to be when not pushing but instead holding an angle. As in, rooms which have good angles on the objectives from OUTSIDE of the objective rooms themselves. I found this to be a very good strategy when playing on Cafe just because of how many rooms there are, especially when playing top floor or kitchen.

[@bencezavarko7312]

After years of hiatus and Call of Duty I tried to play R6 like that game. I picked Thorn as my main because her gun is very accurate and her gadget is very simple. Not thinking about gadgets and just shooting made me a better player than I ever was

[@akuma5905]

Tip for kapkan place 2 of your entry denials at feet level and then put a barricade on the opposite side of that doorway then destroy the barricade with the destroy button, it hides them more easily

[@PrinceIsot]

With Oryx I peppered 3 attackers a little, climbed a hatch and rotated for a kill and got two assists. The hatches people, use them Oryx mains!

[@kakapip1366]

Underrated comment! Because of the hatch buff you can drop down, hit the enemys by suprise and then you just climb up the hatch.

And why my boy Oryx as a 1.5 defender and not Warden for example or Mozzi. PS: think they didn't nerft Mozzi, Iana or Warden because they have elite skins and Ubi doesn't wan't to lose money. I am sure they are also to lazy to change Solis or Azami because it would take a rework 😔)

[@SirMac27]

Mute is still(despite being made a chunky boy now) fast enough to get along the top floor in Oregon. Place the first jammer on the doorway in white stairs as you did in your clip. Then run to the freezer stairs and place it outside at the top of the steps. Reason you put it outside is if you don't a drone can hug the wall and sneak by the radius and spot the bomb and any operators running through site. Last one I put down before wall denial is near the drone hole between bedroom and site. He can get all three, then go reinforce closet wall, and make a couple rotate holes before the round begins. Once the round starts I pick up the drone hole jammer and take it with me to double-window put it under the window to prevent droning from outside. Unless the attackers throw them far into the room they can't use them from the outside.

[@dragonslayerornstein1242]

I believe Mozzie really peaks at the last 45 seconds of a round. If he saves a couple of pests, (and lives to that point) he can snatch those last couple of drones that the last attacker(s) uses for a last second recon sweep so you don’t have to change positions while getting pushed.

[@Sebu-]

My Valk tip would be use her cams to support whatever you are doing. For example if you are on the roam place them on spots which helps you in crucial spots in your roam. If you wanna get that C4 from below place them overwatching multiple spots with soft floor. Etc.

[@watermeloncult212]

My favorite thing with Tachanka, using him to open the tiny bit of softball above reinforcements, put a proxy alarm above a reinforcement. Then watch the attackers try to plant and to their terror, the red rain falls from above

[@retrohero5475]

Another thing I see very often is people putting down other gadgets on doors with kapkans. Like yeah man, that proximity/barbed wire is really gonna help the team when it gets blown up.

[@scotthuffman3462]

Its also worth noting that thorn thrives when she has ally utility to pair with her gadget. This is why I run barb wire on her, if you put the barbs ahead where you know enemies will rush into during a push you can have your traps set up in such a way they are now standing on barbs or ela mine and can't just run away.

[@shadowfalcon001]

Another tip for Kapkan players is to predict the pathway an opponent takes to walk to a doorway and put it on the side of the doorframe away from their view

[@aaronblack7038]

Another common mistake of Solis is that, sometimes instead of being an active info character, they'll just camp below a bombsite, waiting for a plant with their impact grenades ready at hand, but not contributing to anything else beyond that. Sure, doing that towards the last minute of the round is fine, but they go do that literally 10 seconds after a round starts, and they just stay there, be active until you don't need to be, yknow?

[@Leggs2423]

When placing fenrir traps i like to put down barbed wire then put the trap on the black part and activate it, it blends in really well.

[@epicjason21]

I play thorn mainly, I like setting up the razor blooms along stairs or hallways and putting down the shield l, they run straight to the shield, make sure to save one thorn for the other side of the shield when they climb over it’s a free kill

[@kylel.4419]

What I love to do with Thorn is put a trap on somethjng (I.E. a staircase going up) which the goal of that one is to make them run away up top or somethjng but there’s another one very close by towards the top of the stairs waiting. As well as having her barbed wire around both traps which slow them down enough for the traps to work. the best spot I’ve used is on chalet snowmobile garage on the wall. one trap on the dumpster on the far right and one out of gun range on the snowmobile in front of the garage door. And if you want, put the third one on the far left side wall on the racks, also out of sight. Watch the magic

[@ozalduin4383]

Kudos: Let me explain tactical mistakes that commonly being made so people can learn from it! R6 players: TDM META GO BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[@Zombie-gd6fw]

For Kapkan: if you place trap at head level and someone crouches through door, they will also not trigger it.

[@shmett6246]

any utility that can displace the enemy crosshair is crazy valuable

[@Exodus12341]

I remember that on Tower (yes I played QM) and I was Thorn and I either do two of the following: 1) put a thorn on each side of the elevator and one at the front of it. 2) put a thorn up on the ceiling of the floor right above the elevator.

[@KingKolt07]

A tip for Kapkan players. This is obvious but alway have at least one or two reserve EDD’s that you place on popular entry points. An example would be 2F chalet where the hallway to the museum portion that has a window, place an EDD on the window in the corner, then one in the hallway, it works most of the time for me.

[@zekolonon]

I remember a video similar to this that taught me to off set barbed wire on door ways so ppl can’t shoot the generator for bandit

[@OrochiNoGrem]

I found out that proning in Villa's brown stair hallway, you can get the F-natt into the wood beam just beside the stairs at bookshelves. It still has full access and only the red lights can be feintly seen.

[@Muffindounut]

not a specific defender tip, but for those with barbed wires, i like putting mine where the enemy has no cover from anything if they want to melee it instead of right in the middle of the doorway

[@333dae]

for kaid if you can afford to use both sticks for a single double wall then you can put them on hard walls just barely touching the reinforcements on either side, really hard to take out without drones

[@oakleyrowe6530]

My favorite thing to do with kaid is on bank, the open area, obj. I use my claw under the desk upstairs right next to the hatch. Then on the cabinet next to the hatch in the small closet

[@jacobwatkins4695]

I'm glad you said something about fenrir cause I make that mistake but they should change the radius it shows you cause it'll show a full circle instead of just a radius in front of it

[@shadowkiss1933]

Kaid tip: a reinforced wall and your barbed wire can shut off an entire hallway route for attackers if you're clever about it.

[@lucasbragatto780]

Mira on external breachs can be useful. Not as an intel gatherer, but as breach denial. It's not uncommon to se pros and champions defending CCTV on Club with Mira as you can just impact the open mirror to deny a full breach. Yes, the attackers would be able to see inside, but wouldn't be able to get inside the bomb. Of course it's just useful in the rare cases of bombs that the exterior breach is the main way inside the bomb.

[@cosmonautexpress]

tip for clash, you have like a 1 second grace period after putting your shield down. if you shock before and then take the shield down, you have enough time to take out an enemy. but just know if there’s more than one person, there’s no point in taking down your shield. you’ll just get destroyed

[@thatoneslickgamerbutforcomment]

a head level kapkan trap is likely to be destroyed by a swing with any full auto weapon since most of the time you will prefire the swing

[@drzen7703]

A lot of fenrir hiding spot don't even trigger , if you block the sight between attacker's head and the gadget ,it wont detonate even if attacker walk pass by. However need more test to see what exactly the body part of the gadget is detecting. It seems to be head when I tested it but it is possible to be the hip.

[@wesleybeaulieu5664]

For Kapkan, put traps on the opposite side of the doorway than where they're most likely to push.

Another thing I found a tachanky kang is that if you have a deployable shield and use the shumika on one side, the other isn’t effected.

People still fusing at hostage today.

[@deadlyjaguar89]

As a rook main for the past year or 2 No matter how early you place the armour, theres just that 2 stack that you get every 5 games who just cant see it apparently and leave it there

[@EndOfANewEra17]

My problem with Wamai is that throughout the prep phase. You only get two of his gadgets. For maps like theme. That's only worth 1 wall.

[@seintmike7907]

First off, Im very happy that the algorithm brought you to me. I think its cool to see someone else using suppressors! Second, the only tip I disagree with is Valk. I think nowadays its often more useful to actually have your cams on site with full view of the objectives. Often times, it comes down to very few attackers versus very few defenders. Those attackers are more worried about the potential defenders than the cams. It hurts to have someone insta-lock valk and the cams are either gone or still up watching places that aren't even relevant to the defense.

Tip for Daddy Kap, Dont place both sensors on the same wall, spread them out. What i mean is Put one at feet level and put another one at at leg level on the opposite side of the door.

w vid i needed this

[@edoardoandretta9550]

A common mistake with aruni is putting gates on places that must be held with smoke’s nests

[@Soldburrito]

When I play rook I always destroy the rook armor when attackers start making it to site. If my teammates didn’t get it that’s on them as it was sitting there for the whole prep phase and I’m not gonna let attackers get a free self revive.

[@chipsarebetter]

One for goyo is shooting a canister then holding the position facing the fire. Theres no point because the attacker is going to be stuck for the next 20 seconds so you may as well hold another angle for that 20 seconds

[@silves123]

You can get off cams in prep phase by going to the operator selection screen

[@Zedstein]

Another thing for Oryx players, as I have been one recently. Use your extreme mobility to appear on opposite sides of the map faster than anyone expects. When you are Cash Club House, noone expects you to appear Main Stairs in Basement 15 seconds later. For those who play Spas-12, use it to fake a peek and instead jump down a hatch and hold an angle they wont expect downstairs. Your main enemy is intel, as if they have 1 or 2 useful drones around your roam areas, they'll hear or see you before you can jump up or down a hatch.

[@surprisedpanda7056]

Thank you for these they are SO helpful

[@XboxUnitD77]

If you go back to spawn selection during prep phase as attacker you wont be on your drone and it wont appear for solis. Everyone has to though, because anyone on drone will make it active and solks can see it.

[@Grygong555]

Thorn is amazing for direction control. Placing her gadgets in spots away from you like in the stairs gives away enemy positions and makes it easier to push them

[@omercurial5919]

Using Shumika similarly as Smoke's worked very well for me as a Tachanka main. :)

[@superflyherb]

Dope guide my boi

[@neka_jp2070]

I like placing thorns at the bottom of popular windows. When they jump in they usually get slowed by something else like a razorwire + bandit, or get fenrir'd before noticing the thorn about to blow up. Mostly works for low elo tho, because high elo will just drone the window out

[@Skellyy]

On console if you use the thorn barb wire trap under a window 9/10 they can’t swing around and shoot it and they take massive damage

[@jaros6785]

i sometimes put the kiba in the drone phase on barricated doors so the drones cant go tru but its best to do that in only customs

[@ULGoblin]

Frost tip from a main try to put her traps more by doors that people r most likely to swing into but not right in front put it off to the side or something or slightly in a corner for when people who go in a room and just back up for a angle it’s so rare for me to see others use this it’s crazy

[@VerticalSandwich6675]

I always play Cav like that, i set up a few reinforcements then go silent step and sit basement or 1st floor and go off sound cues from there

[@casheverett6300]

Maestro getting slept on once again. The Evil eyes, while being power crept, are still good. The Alder is such a dangerous gun, no recoil, fast fire rate large mag size allows him to win way more gun fights.

[@robertspeedwagon982]

A strategy I liked back when I played the game was to use Lesion and Kapkan gadgets in "weird/unpredictable" places and then use either the gadget's mechanic or sound to give their locations to the team's roamer, or roam myself and attack them from the back

[@crimsoncreed3889]

I think it's still possible to get off your drone during prep phase by simply switching back to operator selection.

[@chrilpy]

Even when I don't want to play him, I feel responsible to play Kapkan because all my teammates don't know you can put traps at feet level
