Wrong. BDS got annihilated by Team Secret cuz they start doing the monty and blitz. These are pros they know what they are doing, so they are strong as hell when done coordinatedly.
Countered Blitz by hearing him coming and placing a Mute Jammer down. He tries to flash in the radius, which gets jammed, delaying his melee and allowing to me knock back his shield and kill him. Happened very quick. Following this, the other day I used a Bulletproof Cam EMP on a Blitz pushing my friend, allowing him to kill Blitz.
@@Glenny0020 It’s so fun countering and outplaying with tactics and gadgets, I love all the little mechanic details when it comes to these things. I’m currently creating a master guide to siege showing all mechanics of everything in Siege, down to the last detail, with unbiased writings of tactics with gadgets etc. Taking it’s time lol. Following on from your Oryx clip, you can Dash into the wall on the door at an angle, and Oryx will continue, sliding through the door just like how Candelas do, essentially “pre-firing” a Remah Dash. Works well against non-shield operators who are most likely already aiming
@@Glenny0020 Just remembered, following your Thorn comment, I killed Montagne with a Razorbloom on Cool Vibes on Coastline. Razorbloom in the plants, barbs on the stairs and I was in Blue Bar. He activated the Razorbloom, cut off by the barbs and as he tried to escape, I suppressed his shield to stop him running lol.
I definitely agree that knowing how to counter a playstyle is a great way of getting better at that playstyle. The reverse is also true. I once saw a blitz outside on the other side of a window. He already wasted his flash, so I just vaulted into him, tanked one bash, ran around him and knifed him. I knew I could do this, because a shield bash doesn't stun when the victim is an animation >:)
The thing that you can do with every operator is run away to the cloasest stairs and jump of them if shield player decides to stop after you you can knife them or punch a shield and just shot them if they decides not to follow you congrats you just escaped.The seconda thing is tuning away to the cloasest Doors and waiting behind the corner a sec or two for them to come and as they step in punch the shield and shot it's especialy good against blits becouse he will have no timer to flash you.Keep in mind that while tuning away you should always have the shortest linę of sight between you and shield op becouse if you run away in a streight holway or a big room they usuwały pull a gun out and shot you in the back.Anyway bery nice break down video
It’s kind of a last-ditch strategy but one of the current meta ways that Brazilian pros counter Monty is if you have no escape you prone and spray the Monty’s feet when he gets within melee distance
The other strat that Spoit and Fett just figured out is that Monty has a short window when he unextends where he can’t get punched, but if you wait half a second then punch him you can knock his shield to the side before he has time to get a melee off on you
Most unusual way Ive killed a shield is by baiting a shield into thinking im pulling out my shimika launcher when Im actually pulling out my secondary to dome them right in the head (Only works for lmg tachanka)
Back when the shields didnt have mellee priority you could just run behind a corner and punch their shield and for me it had atleast a 90% success rate
Counter idea: Throw and leave a nitro on the ground between the shielder and yourself, forcing them to aim and shoot it if they want to close the distance. People sometimes throw a nitro above a doorway, but attackers often sprint outside the door to bait a premature boom. A floor nitro is more exposed, but there’s no obstacle to protect the shielder, putting them in an awkward situation. You could just throw it like the normal “grenade,” but better shielders knows to aim at overzealous defenders who throw them and panic spam that detonate key. Other than that, shielders without sprint are neutered. I’d say the ACSG-12, the drum slug shotty, is good for spraying a shield to suppress (I think you need to deal like 120 dmg to stop their sprint) while not draining much of its magazine. Maestro’s LMG is also good for that, but he’s not so popular.
You mentioned shotguns like right after I resumed the video XD. I hope you have good luck with that. I’m worried about how shotties fare against ADS’d shielders who are essentially headgliching, but that’s just speculation.
No other operators cause this much chaos or require this much team work to deal with. No other operators are nearly invincible whilst charging at you. But yet the dumbest most idiotic thing is; when they shield bash you, you are useless and cant do a thing… something which nomad was literally nerfed for.

@@aqibfreed4672 I never said they were balanced, nothing ever is. But I’m glad that’s the one thing you took from the hours of work that I put into this video. Thanks for your comment and your immense knowledge.
You got a massive skill issue get gud is all i can say. Shields are very situational and hard to adapt to scenarios outside their respective role they are good at with the exception of maybe Monty who is yet pretty easy to counter with the gazillion trap ops plus area denial ops plus oryx on top of that. You are just frustrated bc you see a shield and are too dumbfounded bc it needs some brainwork to outsmart them instead of just going guns blazing like the avarage new gen r6 player
The suppression mechanic is not good enough. Its the melee system that needs to be fixed. Its so clunky and doesn't work how it seems it should work. Super frustrating as a defender to go knife a shield and it not do anything because they started sprinting???? Like i can understand if they melee and you do it cancels out, but all the other animations that give them melee invulnerability is ridiculously asinine. And Montagne is just too good if they have even one person communicating with him he can be extremely frustrating, especially on certain sites like basement of bank. Maybe just lessen the periphery on montagne so hes not 180 degrees fully covered, even if you keep the head fully covered 180, morw bodyshots on the side of montagne when hes full extended would make him so much more manageable as a defender. It would incorporate more strategy and callouts to get angles on the montagne which is what ubisoft wants. But also i dont want monty to get one shot headshot from the sides because then he might not be fun to play. Blitz is fine to go against, the suppression mechanic works with blitz as he cant full extend like prick. And clash is in a decent spot too. (In terms of frustration/clunkyness)
But how do you counter me running sledge with m590a1 pushing slightly behind the Monty on comms to 1 tap you with call outs and timing? Shield suck by themselves have a shotgun team up with one have fun screaming
@@ethan7376 yeah the emps do suck a bit, but if you play smart you could just play around the emp (as in waiting for both emps to be used) and you can basically hold them off the whole game
its funny how everything is dedicated to Monty and Blitz, when we also have the warcrime powerhouse fuze. Most counters require utility and fuze anihilates everything + he can safely watch you suffer. Before ppl call fuze a bad operator, i want to remind you, that i consistently reach high dia with him and also have a good kpm. The general shield rework made him an absolute beast with a shield, since u can now take mapcontrol and reach places more easily.
You either die a hero or you live long enough to become the villain. Love the new vid, the most satisfying blitz finka rush counter i had was on villa (bomb site aviator) and they were pushing landing from statue door. We had a Melusi Banshee in the middle of landing right so it had to be pushed by the Blitz but couldnt be shot by the Finka in the statue door. Melusi was hiding behind the white pillars as bait( easy to see for the Blitz but he couldnt ads bc bomb site door) while i was on Echo and one of my drones was also in landing. As soon as the Blitz entered the Bansheefield, he got a bash from the drone and Melusi swung him close and killed him. The Finka was keen to refrag, got the second drone bash and i swung her from avi door whilst she was focused ob the Melusi, easy round win for us.
My biggest issue with shields right now is how much of me and my teams attention and strategy has to go into handling a shield while needing to simultaneously handle 4 other attacker threats. If the other team starts running one, they have a full round before you can make operator adaptions to counter. Then once you do attack has drone phase to identify that and repick to run any combination of twitch / brava and flores, now any util counters you thought up are gone or used against you. Now I’m stuck running site Oryx like a jackass instead of running any actual utility or applying roam pressure. Tbh I’d like to see at least monty loose the ability to Melee. If a shield can get that close without me being able to damage, the same should be the case for the shield. Opens up opportunities to other buffs you could do, let shields coolaid man through soft walls, barricades and castle barricades. Give monty the ability to put that shit down (not in doorways) like an indestructible Osa shield and plant on it or fight around it with his pistol. Add distance to blitzes flash. Give them machine pistols. End my agony.
The whole point of siege is to meet strategy with strategy. I can’t stand all the whiners who just want siege to be some fast paced head popping hero shooter rather than what it’s supposed to be, a chess game fps, the intellectual shooter. Can stupid people just gtfo of the game please, they’ve been whining to the devs for so long that we’ve lost what Siege is supposed to be. It’s at the point when someone else needs to come out with a replicate of Siege that’s more to the core of Clancy and the strategic element. In which gadgets are closer related to reality and where the map is part of the strategy. Darkness, dynamic light sources, slower pace, synergy plays being more powerful than solo etc.
*plays shield* Enemy team: OH it's SO EASY *proceeds to pick shield, runs in and dies* Enemy team: *slurs* So & So has left the game Is how it usually runs for me.
Something I’ve learned works really well against shields in a 1v1 is sitting right next to a doorway and meleeing the shield right as he sprints through the door. It often catches them off guard, and by the time they react, they have 57 bullets in their head.
Interesting timing as yesterday it was 4-4 and I was in a 1v5. Got it down to a 1v1 which was a Monty I didn’t know about. He rushed me as I got the previous kill and immediately meleed me. Had I known I would’ve played differently, but with these tips I now know how to defend myself anyhow
My most creative method to counter shields is probably taking frost, setup a trap behind a vault (deployable shield, window, vault rotation) and lay down next to it. If they decide to vault over, they either shoot you, or they shoot the frost trap... This sometimes works on some rage hacker too, because most of the time they kill you but have 0 time to shoot the trap and get caught, a teammate needs to finish the kill though.
Secure area clock is stack at 0 and i can't stop melee montaine inside the room. He goes to a corner and starts chatting shit on public chat. I dont have a C4 but i then realize that this clown was above an unreinforced hatch. I pull out my shotgun and he literally dropped out of site winning me the round😂
My most frustration with shields is that meleeing shields is broken. When you melee blitz first, on your screen you can see that his shield went to the side and you think that you can shoot him, but for blitz you did nothing and he can easily melee you instead
One of my fondest memories from this season has been a game where I was 1 vs a Monty, and this fucker was sitting waiting for me to defuse I was playing tachanka
My favorite way to counter shield players only works on monty. Basically, what I do is stay at range (because shields will smash at close range) and pull cams. Then I immediately drop cams again.
Most creative (and most likely most lucky) way I countered was by running around a corner with a Blitz running after me for a melee kill (too close but not enough to melee me), and right after I made the turn, I turned and went back where I came from, timed a melee to hit the shield as soon as I went through the doorway and started shooting. I guess Blitz was expecting me to try and run somewhere safe, so they didn't expect to run back right away. I did also melee around head level to try and catch them in case they went around the doorway ADSing but I don't play this game enough to know if that'd just stagger him or actually hit his head and get the kill. Kind of like trickstabbing in TF2
when i saw shield i always back up to meet up with my team XD and i like to bring impact grenade. c4 sux only one if u miss 100% u fked XD c4 so slow but damage high
Knife the sheild as they're pushing you and spray. The knife will knock the shield sideways, revealing their head. You have to knife to the side of the shield and lean the other way whilst you're spraying to be able to get a shot off; otherwise, you'll just shoot the sheild.
My most creative way, only because it wasn’t listed, was actually Melusi! Because the banshee prevents sprinting, I baited a shield into its radius and then they lost melee priority, so I bashed them and shot them.
Lately it’s been like the shields might aswell just not exist. If I’m playing a shield op and run up and melee someone nothing happens half the time. Reticle is dead center on them and nope nothing. Then they proceed to just hop fire my head somehow.
When Im playing shields I get fucked way too often by people to faint going for a melee, but then actually run right past me to stab me in the back. Skill issue? yes
One time a shield was chasing me and I ran over the soft hatch in stock (clubhouse) used my secondary shotgun to shoot the hatch as he ran over it and he fell lmao. I have the clip it's so funny
Ive never done this but I was thinking about how cool this would be. Now with skopos being played, the robots cant pick up the last rook armor on the team. So what if the rook placed the armor in an open spot on 2nd floor and a nitro cell was placed below the armor on the first floor. Have a valk cam watching if someone would go to the armor and boom. It could counter a shield but i guess this trap is for anyone.
How to counter monty, Requires 2 people and the floor below to be soft. It was clubhouse and monty planted the defuser and sat in a corner on CC 1 person stays above with monty and keeps him stood still the 2nd person goes below and shoots up at monty to kill him
They got me to play oryx and I genuinely love playing him now. Shotgun pistol for rotates, lesions SMG and can easily disengage. Also usually gets a free kill on a shield rusher.
I killed an emerald player in copper lobbies while they were using blitz by running towards them, knifing them, then backing up enough to shoot them from safety (Said emerald had a year 9 season 2 emerald background)
I’ve been actually really having a lot of fun with oryx. Use your first two charges for rotations save your team some utility and time set up headholes and barbed then wait with best smg on defense
me and my friend usually use a combo with clash or melusi or lesion as it can slow them down along with either goyo canister if its near them or use tachanka my fav is clash and tachanka as u can hide behind the sheild and shoot fire balls
Most creative way I countered a shield was there was a clash on 2F big window on oregon, I used flores drones to make her and other defenders move from their positions expecting that might help the team but it didn't work, so I went to the first floor and used floor holes flores drones made to shoot her from below, also killed 2 other defenders from the holes.

Press A while turning mouse to the right then melee. Learned from CAV
I still argue the suppression mechanic takes too many bullets to trigger in live.
Counter idea: Throw and leave a nitro on the ground between the shielder and yourself, forcing them to aim and shoot it if they want to close the distance. People sometimes throw a nitro above a doorway, but attackers often sprint outside the door to bait a premature boom. A floor nitro is more exposed, but there’s no obstacle to protect the shielder, putting them in an awkward situation.
You could just throw it like the normal “grenade,” but better shielders knows to aim at overzealous defenders who throw them and panic spam that detonate key.
Other than that, shielders without sprint are neutered. I’d say the ACSG-12, the drum slug shotty, is good for spraying a shield to suppress (I think you need to deal like 120 dmg to stop their sprint) while not draining much of its magazine.

Im at the point I don't even get mad when some says it's easy to stop shields I'm all ears rn
i literally spam a bunch of lesion mines and once they run through more than 1 i just sprint at them until they die
Best way to counter shields is to tell them how little their life is worth. Works 9/10.

was just an old pro league bundle, I think it came with the sledge set. It should be in the store again though
@Glenny0020 sledge is in the shop with his main weapon but not the smg
@@Ex_or_Wessi it should be there, might be it’s own bundle
Most creative (and most likely most lucky) way I countered was by running around a corner with a Blitz running after me for a melee kill (too close but not enough to melee me), and right after I made the turn, I turned and went back where I came from, timed a melee to hit the shield as soon as I went through the doorway and started shooting.
I guess Blitz was expecting me to try and run somewhere safe, so they didn't expect to run back right away. I did also melee around head level to try and catch them in case they went around the doorway ADSing but I don't play this game enough to know if that'd just stagger him or actually hit his head and get the kill.
Kind of like trickstabbing in TF2
Bro telling people they ass because they cant counter while BeastCoast won a whole Major by using Monty/Blitz.
when i saw shield i always back up to meet up with my team XD
and i like to bring impact grenade. c4 sux only one if u miss 100% u fked XD c4 so slow but damage high
Knife the sheild as they're pushing you and spray. The knife will knock the shield sideways, revealing their head. You have to knife to the side of the shield and lean the other way whilst you're spraying to be able to get a shot off; otherwise, you'll just shoot the sheild.
Fun fact, 90% of blitz players dont turn when you hit there shield, no im not joking, thats how ive killed so many blitz players
My most creative way, only because it wasn’t listed, was actually Melusi! Because the banshee prevents sprinting, I baited a shield into its radius and then they lost melee priority, so I bashed them and shot them.
Lately it’s been like the shields might aswell just not exist. If I’m playing a shield op and run up and melee someone nothing happens half the time. Reticle is dead center on them and nope nothing. Then they proceed to just hop fire my head somehow.
When Im playing shields I get fucked way too often by people to faint going for a melee, but then actually run right past me to stab me in the back. Skill issue? yes
One time a shield was chasing me and I ran over the soft hatch in stock (clubhouse) used my secondary shotgun to shoot the hatch as he ran over it and he fell lmao. I have the clip it's so funny
If ypur absoluty built different you can punch their shoulder to insta kill
Guard break + double up with some aggression and the shield becomes useless
go to 1f, attach a C4 at the bottom of 2F hatch, then stand by near the 2f hatch, wait for the Shield to pass and step on the hatch. boom!
Step one.
Play the Mute that shot me through literal dimensions past my shield with a shotgun.
Best way to counter is to join em
is anyone else just constantly getting fucked in ranked?
On console I use Thorn and barbed wire and so far has worked fine.
Dude, people sound so stupid when they whine about shields.
Bom video Glenn, obrigado.
ela can counter montage ela got Impact Grenade
Tachanka can break blitz glass with her lmg
you call yourself a shield main. yuck
Also important to note that fire guard-breaks shields on either contact or damage
I tried to show that with the goyo clip but forgot to actually narrate that part
Shield rework is stupid
C4 thats all
that jager
Ive never done this but I was thinking about how cool this would be. Now with skopos being played, the robots cant pick up the last rook armor on the team. So what if the rook placed the armor in an open spot on 2nd floor and a nitro cell was placed below the armor on the first floor. Have a valk cam watching if someone would go to the armor and boom. It could counter a shield but i guess this trap is for anyone.
Smart
Step 1 to counter shields, don’t play the game.
Step 2 don’t forget step 1
How to counter monty,
Requires 2 people and the floor below to be soft.
It was clubhouse and monty planted the defuser and sat in a corner on CC 1 person stays above with monty and keeps him stood still the 2nd person goes below and shoots up at monty to kill him
They got me to play oryx and I genuinely love playing him now. Shotgun pistol for rotates, lesions SMG and can easily disengage. Also usually gets a free kill on a shield rusher.
I killed an emerald player in copper lobbies while they were using blitz by running towards them, knifing them, then backing up enough to shoot them from safety
(Said emerald had a year 9 season 2 emerald background)
If it’s 2 shields I run away or make them TK themselves it’s so funny seeing Monty and blitz pew pew each other head
I’ve been actually really having a lot of fun with oryx. Use your first two charges for rotations save your team some utility and time set up headholes and barbed then wait with best smg on defense
me and my friend usually use a combo with clash or melusi or lesion as it can slow them down along with either goyo canister if its near them or use tachanka my fav is clash and tachanka as u can hide behind the sheild and shoot fire balls
How bout baiting a shield over a hatch with a BP cam and dropping them into 3 frost mats?
Cool video, congrats on 10K subs
They didnt need to nerf the impact dmg that much.
They kind of did though
5:18 dude u blasted the shit out of him
Most creative way I countered a shield was there was a clash on 2F big window on oregon, I used flores drones to make her and other defenders move from their positions expecting that might help the team but it didn't work, so I went to the first floor and used floor holes flores drones made to shoot her from below, also killed 2 other defenders from the holes.
