Maestro's glass needs to go back to being in-crackable. They added that feature to ballance him. Then they added the Gonne-6. And Brava. Make his turrets MORE able than BP Cams. Not less!

[@astolfo4346]

I would like to see that, but it's not like they're really bad or nothing. They're just more relyent on the map now (which alot of ops already are so whatever) And he has an insanely good kit. He has the best lmg in the game, the best pistol in the game (the revolver. Fuck the dogshit balif) and impacts and observations blockers to if you want.

[@saki...7443]

i love ianas changes. i was never amazing with nades. but i think her flashes and gonne-6 will fit her better. super excited for this patch, i hope they go in this direction more.

[@LiwanShearzad]

I’m so happy that warden is now 1 speed and I’m pretty sure that the average r6 player hates 1 speed

[@BMP]

Yeah its such a goodchange in my opinion

[@astolfo4346]

Guess I'm not your average r6 player then, cus all I see that change as is a buff to him. More hp for moving 15% slower then a 2 speed? Don't mind if I do. And roaming with him isn't gonna change cus ppl roam doc with a way worse gun constantly so there should be no complaints there

[@Sao-jl4qt]

​@astolfo4346 biggest issue is the noise. Doc stays strong since he can peak and full heal in 3 seconds if he loses the swing. Warden will just get pressured and since he's 1 speed he can't get away as easy

[@astolfo4346]

@@Sao-jl4qt fair, but when you get into high lobbies, they'll here you even if your a 3speed. All this means is you gonna not sprint across the whole map anymore. Which is a habit that ppl need to break, you are so loud when you do that btw no matter your ops speed >,>

[@Sao-jl4qt]

@@astolfo4346 it's the same issue as sledge. You walk alot, yes, but you also have to run at times for repositioning when you're a 3 speed, which Is even louder due to said speed meaning they'll have a more definite idea of where you went. If a 1 speed is running upstairs you'll just hear slight taps across the ceiling rather than a 3 speed which leaves a major sound trail up until they stop, even then you can hear the walking more clearly and it'll lead to people focusing you since they have a better idea on where you are compared to the 1 speed that can sprint in small amounts while maintaining being silent

[@Dom_Tachanka]

I dont care about the other buffs/ nerfs. What Really matters is that MY BOY TACHANKA GOT A BUFF LETS GO!

[@olivermensinger6022]

Honestly, I am super happy with all of the changes this season. Great job on Ubi’s end. A suggestion for nerfing frags (I got this from Zen) is taking the total count of grenades from 2 to 1.

[@BMP]

Yeah this patch is good overall

[@jacobwhelan45]

You’re smiling and joyous while talking about Warden’s nerf…. I actually cheered at this news lol

[@BMP]

Yeah its so good lmao

[@astolfo4346]

Bro it's a buff wym, more hp at the cost of moving 15% slower then a 2speed. Update came out and he feels the exact same

[@astolfo4346]

They just made an already hated op even stronger. Good job ubi

[@jacobwhelan45]

@@astolfo4346 in what world can a speed 1 roam around the map effectively?

[@astolfo4346]

@jacobwhelan45 the same world where docs already do it in 💀

[@brado6655]

I honestly don’t think iana is too op with nades. I think she’s pretty balanced. The nades go so well with her gadget so removing them from her is terrible in my opinion

[@Sao-jl4qt]

The issue is 1.50 AND nades. They should either remove her 1.5 or keep 1.5 and give claymores to cover herself while using the decoy

[@enriqueperezarce5485]

Honestly she doesn’t need nades, that isn’t her role. Her role is to go in as entry so her team can push in. Iana out of anyone should be dead first causing chaos on her team

[@frankiepeele9220]

My fellow ying mains, this is our time

[@kohlicoide2258]

Not rly.. Warden Mains starts to play him again and not 1,5x Mains :D

[@Quietplague2000]

​@@kohlicoide2258believe me 1.5 mains w. Still play him. Still the same Op just slower just watch they'll still use him

[@kohlicoide2258]

@@Quietplague2000 Yeah but i guess the will switch more to Thorn or Goyo.. maybe Smoke, or Wamai how has already his 1,5x back on the MP5K? (not sure tbh)

[@astolfo4346]

@joshuaestrada4188 only 15% slower, if that's they're tipping point I don't even know how they can roam even with a 2 speed.

[@astolfo4346]

Update is out, and he feels the exact same, but now with more hp. Good job ubi, buffing the op ppl want nerfed💀

[@epgamer1145]

Tachanka is finally worth using. Now they just have to make his gadget worth using.

[@apexlajvd2586]

Jackal and thatcher are legit just my go to bans it’s just muscle memory

[@sleepy947]

Personally, I never picked iana soley for her nades, she has an amazing ability and an even more amazing gun, if i want nades i can always go sledge or nokk, and now gridlock and finka. These changes are honestly great for the game, i think if they nerf nades, and start to put them on more operators, the game will be more fun to play inthe long run. Warden 3 speed i feel like wont change his pick rate drastically, his gun is almost unfair especially on console. I really want to see finka and gridlock pickrates go up because ive always played these operators, more so gridlock. I agree w/ you shes incredibly underrated and now shes gonna be super strong in stacks. im yapping so if you read this much thanks lmaoo

[@avellosrt3446]

Nobody talks about it but health change nerfed maestro because before that he could down someone with his gadget

[@pierrematthieupaglia3707]

Good patch, I am happy with it

[@StonexRanger]

I think this is one of the best patches they’ve done in awhile. Just surprised no Azami nerf. Also think they need to give Melusi 1.5 or make her a 2-2. She’s literally just worse than Fenrir in almost every way

[@astolfo4346]

For the love of God give her a better smg plz🙏. Her shotguns is just better since that shotgun buff. I'd actually play her again if she got a different gun. It's not her speed or lack of 1.5x that's the problem on her, it's the fact she has the mpiss5😭

[@StonexRanger]

@@astolfo4346 yeah that too. People say it’s a good gun but it’s literally only bc 1.5. Along with every smg except the MP7. They should swap her weapon with Fenrir bc he still has the better gadget, is faster and has the baliff

[@olivermensinger6022]

@@StonexRangerwhat about Echo’s MP5SD.

[@StonexRanger]

@@olivermensinger6022 I mean as long as it got 1.5 I don’t see why not. But it would just suck bc she’s 3 armor so no need for suppressor and can’t use Flash/Comp. It’s funny bc I still think it does more damage than the normal MP5 but I may be wrong

[@TrulyAlkaline]

Wouldn’t be surprised if more people start to run warden shotgun instead

[@annezox2521]

In my opinion I think gridlocks frags shouldve gone to sens.

[@Not_SPZ]

Warden is a attacker now 4:49😂

[@StoneislandYT]

I don’t really think the whole “let’s just remove their frags” is really the best way of “balancing” operators. Just seems like the equivalent of putting tape over a leaking pipe. And Maestro’s cams just shouldn’t be able to be cracked with a melee.

[@bubsGK]

When does it come out?

[@BMP]

I believe in a few days. I don't have the exact date though

[@bubsGK]

@@BMP thank you

[@astolfo4346]

@@bubsGK it's out now

[@TrulyAlkaline]

I woulda given iana claymore instead of stuns because of her gadget

[@Escap5_CoDm]

FACTS make her gadgets help her util don’t make them separate that’s how you balance her

[@aRorschachTest]

Zero hasn’t fallen off in win rate. He hasn’t moved for like a year

[@epgamer1145]

All they have to do now is rework black beard instead of focusing on operators that were already ok (like frost) Maybe then we will have a nice change.

[@AustinMCoC]

I think Jackals win rate is so low because the only players who don’t ban him are people who know how to counter him and play against him

[@astolfo4346]

Yeah which isn't that hard, I stopped banning him when I stopped being a hard stuck Plat all the way back in amaru's season. Just let the enemy team ban em cus they're dumb💀

[@BigGov74]

Maestro 1.5 allow me to see with him again (I do actually have vision issues I’m not just 1.5 abuser)

[@XxRIPxX3]

beast can i 1v1 you i been trying your tips i got some of them down

[@damythical2967]

I love kapkhan can never bloody play him as the people on console dont drone so ban him it's annoying

[@CommandoMaster]

Good changes, but i don't get R6 balance at all

[@danieliwanvanhuizen1286]

hey how are u today -freezing

[@PeteZaroleLegacy]

An idea i thought of for jager is give his ADS 2 shots before having to reset

warden so good he had to be banned as an attacker

[@olivermensinger6022]

I know, right.

[@BMP]

LMAO

[@Amifai]

Warden is an attacker tf is this nerf 😂😂

[@ioniccat5384]

is this bait

[@palal-dz4oo]

I would like if lesion's gu mine didn't do poison damage but made it so you couldn't sprint for a few seconds.

[@zxkzel3057]

it already does that

[@astolfo4346]

Yeah they already make it where you can't sprint when there's one in......

[@olivermensinger6022]

You can’t sprint when you step on a gu. That’s been a thing since the beginning.

[@sIatzy]

Just tryna understand the POV of someone who doesnt like nades. In my opinion its kinda a skill thing or knowledge thing that you get rewarded for.

[@BMP]

Nades being as strong as they are forces defender aggression at high ranks. This is because if you know a operator with nades is below the bombsite you can get naded at any point. So just by an operator being below the site, they can force the anchors to constantly move or to even take an unfavorable gunfight. Plus, I think the idea that getting nade kills from below being a skillful thing is kind of untrue. Yellow ping makes it extremely easy. Once you get a drone in the site any nade kill is free pretty much.

[@sIatzy]

@@BMP Okok thats understandable especially when theres stacks that are really coordinated

[@astolfo4346]

Crazy seeing a warden buff when i thought they'd be nerfing him lol (More hp more moving only 15%slower then a 2speed is like barely a negative) And seeing jackal's win rate so low makes sense, ppl over react to his gadget so much. Its not terrible, but can be easily turned against you just as fast since it tells em when they get pinged, which makes baiting the jackel incredibly easy. Its wild to see zero down there tho, hes one of the best ops in the game. Guess no ones really relised that yet Ima say this for the last time, this isnt a nerf to frost, this is a murder. She's gonna become beyond useless when this happens. She already has the worst smg in the game (it has worst stats then cavs smg, a 1.5x doesn't magically make it good) and all around a very mid-terrible kit, and the biggest trap/gadget in the whole game. Just droning makes her terrible. I used to main her before the dmg nerf and only play here on and off depending on the map, but once this murder comes out I'm never touching her again. And I'd love a refund on my cosmetics for her too🙏

[@ggggbfgspyevan3849]

Now warden mains will go to either Thorn, Goyo or Wamai

[@astolfo4346]

Or just stay on the op..... This was a buff to my mans. More hp for moving 15%slower then a 2 speed. And ppl roam with doc like crazy when they have a way worse gun(the mpiss5, the p90 is a underrated monster), so if you see any warden players swap, it just shows you how smart they are😂

[@ggggbfgspyevan3849]

@@astolfo4346 15% slower is huge, and there are also louder soundcalls

[@astolfo4346]

@ggggbfgspyevan3849 you serious? It's not like 50% or something which I'd agree with, you'll maby take half a second longer getting from point a-b at most And once your in high lobbies, ppl are gonna hear you weather you're a 1speed or a 3 speed.

[@astolfo4346]

I learned that shit real quickly when playing diamonds and champs. This isn't cod, you have the ability to not run full speed into ppl. You can take it slow, drone, crouch walk, slow walk, etc. This isn't a run-n-gun game, this is a tactical shooter.

[@ggggbfgspyevan3849]

@@astolfo4346 yeah but have you ever been in a situation where you were too slow to keep up with your teammates and didnt help them or got backszabbed because you were the last ? That's literally an average gridlock gameplay. So that's why you can't really enter from the other side of the map because of the 1 speed imo

[@edwinzinkniko9190]

to me the WTF of your thumbnail should go for warden for not getting his 1.5 out but i guess making him a slow*** old man is a bit better but not enough

[@BMP]

true lmao

[@edwinzinkniko9190]

@@BMP but yh you re right about one thing man that is like one stab close to death for warden to make him so slow and force him to play in the site so if they take the 1.5 in the next patch that will be the nail in the coffin XD, to me im a warden hater for those that play him as a main for his 1.5 instead of his gadget

[@SwiKeyMTC]

@@edwinzinkniko9190 It's because the devs vision for Warden is an anchor who can take on smokes from a distance, so they want to try and keep that 1.5 as long as possible.

@@SwiKeyMTC from what i read its to create synergy or something but i feel like that even with the 1.5 on they are still gonna abuse it

​@edwinzinkniko9190 bro what? Ppl roam with DOC and his gun is waaaaaay worse. This was a buff more hp for moving 15% slower then a 2speed. Roaming with a one speed isn't that bad💀

[@Slimerror]

Personally I love the frost Rework, call me a noob but I'd rather have a fighting chance against a trapper than just straight up die. And if wanting to have a chance against an operator makes me a noob so be it.

[@TheAlphaChad]

Plus the fact that it takes two people out of the fight temporarily was always something that just seemed a little overpowered to me, I think they did a good job at reworking Frost by making a self revive extremely punishing.

[@Slimerror]

@@TheAlphaChad I agree, besides a good frost anchors between their traps anyways so it's still a really powerful trap it just less punishing for the unfortunate player.

[@xziuma]

Your "fighting chance" is droning or prefireing the floor. Frost was already a shite op before the nerf because of her deplorable gun, now she's just worse lmao

[@astolfo4346]

@@xziuma facts

[@astolfo4346]

She's gonna be beyond useless when this rework (murder) happens. I used to main her before they decided to make her gun worse, then cavs smg, and I can say without a doubt she needed a buff if anything. Her gadget is huge, and her kit is terrible. There was almost no reason to run her before, but now there definitely won't be.

when is it coming out ?
