How To Play SKOPOS & What Counters Her - Rainbow Six Siege Guide 2024

[@Ipxuli]

U inside the Shield is phenomenal 😂😂

[@alyttleton]

Hahahaha thanks mate. Took longer than I'd like to admit to edit it 😅

[@Sovreign071]

The reason you can see her face in transfer is because you are LITERALLY playing her, sitting at a keyboard in front of a monitor. When the monitor dims, she can see herself, much like irl. For all the jokes people make, Skopos is as close as anyone can get to playing themselves in Siege!

[@alyttleton]

Wait, Skopos is playing Siege... We are playing Siege. Is Skopos playing us?!? 🤓🤓🤓

[@tnductai]

yo, it's leaked that you are getting your own twitch charm this season! congrats!

[@RKDRIGOX]

Probably the best way to deal with an inactive robot is to punch the glass and place a claymore facing it. Than, just wait for the free kill

[@alyttleton]

The claymore behind it works better providing you can get behind it

[@RKDRIGOX]

@@alyttleton But what if you place a claymore right in front of it, but in a place that can't be seen because of the shield? I mean right on its feet. Would it destroy the robot or just the shield? Would the claymore detonate only after the shield is undeployed?

[@EmperorOfRoma]

​@RKDRIGOX the last one. It won't blow until the shield goes away

[@wyettmunro470]

​@@EmperorOfRomabe a good play but might only work once after you do it im going to know to look out for it a second time and not place my bot to openly to were it will be seen easily or find easily

[@akimbominer4782]

Another great operator recap!

[@alyttleton]

Thanks!

[@awesomefan935]

I can’t wait until this goes live. I’ve been playing the test server and I’ve been telling my mates these strats but they think it’ll be a gimmick operator and won’t be used in high tier play but I’m betting they’re wrong. Can’t wait to bait and switch on a jackal or to roam hard and be able to essentially teleport out of danger.

[@DarkZerol]

Gimmick? Your mates have obviously no idea how to play the game. Just watch the various gameplay on the test server especially among Siege content creators. Skopos is obviously one of the strongest and most interesting designed operator these past seasons. The way you can switch between both robots and utilize their active and idle stance will undoubtedly promote tons of creative play among the playerbase.

[@mattonken5391]

Ayo grats on the charm

[@trouble5hooter]

appreciate the detail andy (:

[@alyttleton]

Thanks! 💜

[@liamcampbell1370]

If they're cams does NØKK ability work against the opp

[@wirm1610]

New op gonna be great for playing super aggressive/one off angles

[@karnajane]

ty! came back r6 and i need to learn like 7 operators

[@lonz0_0]

I'm a simple person, I see alyttleton post...I click.

[@alyttleton]

🐐🐐🐐

[@JMVQ37]

I live for the intros of you sitting behind a desk or behind a shield or something 😭🙏🏽

[@goldenboy._]

I feel like a emp grenade should shutdown an active scopus. Either restrict the movements or shut the visuals down for 5 secs.

[@TabbuEme]

All I can say is, if you see a Wheels robot in the OFF mode, you just place a claymore, because a flank is a really juicy play for this operator, so killing the inactive robot would deny that, but putting a claymore on it would be absolutely stankier, because the ACTIVE robot dies to the claymore, you leave it alive for the juicy bait.

[@alyttleton]

Yeah this works really well. Just claymore the idle robot so when they switch over it goes boom 💥

[@ZumberThanos]

Ubisoft Make the one robot a 3 speed and the other one a 3 armor

[@sockinvaders]

I reckon 50% of all players choose the most fun, aggressive operators so they have the best chance of getting kills. 40% will take some utility to help with the objective, but still want a good op with a good gun. Then there's 10% of us who are quite happy to sit all round on echo drones, maestro cams or behind shields if it gives the team the best chance of winning. We are the 10% Skopos was will appeal to. You get to deep roam and anchor simultaneously and provide so much use and intel to the team.

[@IndeJim]

One anchor and one roaming! Bazinga!

[@Trichotome]

So excited to see what people cook with my girl! Thank you for the detailed breakdown! Great stuff as always!

[@alyttleton]

The absolute goat in the comments 🐐🐐

[@RKDRIGOX]

Does fire affect the inactive robot?

[@OptimusPrimarche]

IT DOES. found that out the hard way

[@foreverpotato3035]

First entry. How do the robots interact with capitao bolts?

[@nezantra]

They have to take damage at the same rate as every other op, super broken otherwise

[@alyttleton]

They do. But only the active robot takes damage. The idle robot doesn't take damage from fire as it's seen as a gadget.

[@foreverpotato3035]

@@nezantra cheers

[@foreverpotato3035]

@@alyttleton cheers I saw you did how it reacts with smoke so wasn't sure about capitao which is a little confusing as the are deemed different to smoke

[@hansonalister5358]

What about air jabs with the idle?

[@xoyondaimeox]

This might be answered already but is fire from Capitao or Goyo gadgets going to affect them?

[@alyttleton]

It affects the active robot not the idle robot

[@AXP1303]

The transfer seems a bit long. Imagine trying to play monkey in the middle 1v1 but with Skopos it's a 1v2. But now they planted but you're switching to the off site one etc. It just seems too long but I'm not sure. Also I think there should be more than a Color difference between the Robots like the antenna could be longer idk. The "kill" should be something different it shouldn't tell you that you killed a "player" it should just pop up as the Icon. Just so there's less confusion.

[@Star-kp8oc]

Skilled based and she is good

[@michaelmannion3319]

Underrated KZbinr I swear, good stuff man

[@alyttleton]

I appreciate that!

[@-Monad-]

I need whatever the devs were smoking, stat

[@alyttleton]

I think it's an unbelievably cool op

[@Star-kp8oc]

@@alyttletonvery creative also

[@sundaydads1796]

If you destroy her shield? Can you then move the robot to a smaller area to transfer out of it?

[@SaitoLogan]

Alytt, when watching the first minutes , I thought of a funny strat. Mira using her mirror standing behind an Idle robot 😅 could be completely invisible Also, I have some questions as well: (1) can Buck kill Idle Robot from below? (3) can kali charge remove the shield? (4) if I throw an attacker’s nade over the shield, will it kill the idle robot in 1 hit? (5) can Ram Bugi destroy the shield? (2) what does Skopos see when one robot is being hacked by Brava?

[@NicholasWolfwood-md7vm]

My nickname for this new operator is Handi-Chappie.

[@jesusschlumpf3371]

what happens with deimos track?

[@elvital1742]

how do they interact with fire?

[@PeachesOHKO]

Class

[@alyttleton]

💜

[@Star-kp8oc]

You reminds me of iceycat

[@DarkNomad347]

Such a cool OP, and I love the interactions especially with her own team. The idea of smoking an enemy as they plant/push site, while you as Skopos activate the idle droid inside, immune to the smoke and just chasing them out of or killing them from inside the smoke has great horror movie vibes. Plus I feel like with the health trick between them, choosing to have both doc and thunderbird not affect them is a good call. Might have to boot up the test server and try her out myself.

[@alyttleton]

Definitely gonna be some cool interactions

[@matthijsfoppen3438]

Hey alyt, and the interaction with mute? Curious if he will jamms his own team mate. 😂

[@TabbuEme]

Kinda bs that IQ can't spot an active robot

[@alyttleton]

There is a cloaking device when the robot is active apparently

[@Star-kp8oc]

take off the shield the robot will be easier to hide

[@DigitalDollarVentures-h9g]

Hi

[@alyttleton]

Hell again 💜

[@YOSI-IKA]

Let's goooo

[@Bohemian-Rhapsody]

The game is already defensively top-heavy. This operator is OP and like every operator since Jackal, totally unrealistic. They should be throwing every dollar into stopping cheaters, not releasing new operators into a broken architecture.

[@FIREFOX274]

If you stop and think for a second you'd realize there's nothing special about this OP... You get one "active" bot and an oversized camera sitting in the corner... when "actives" destroyed the other becomes useless... Weak ass OP compared to how I thought she'd work, what's the freaking point? A small chance for a flank?

[@riegzs]

seems kinda underpowered

[@FIREFOX274]

That's what I'm saying, don't really see the point in her kit..
