The manually turning on/off gadget system would be a great buff for a defender like Melusi, her gadget is a free 10 points once you’re in range of its affect so I think this’ll be a great buff for operators like Melusi.
but you have to be so close to her gadget as an attacker to trigger it. It seems like it would be kind of pointless to me. What are the odds that you're gonna get to activate it at perfect times
@@Talisman09what if it's in common plant spots and u turn it on as they're planting, so they can't run away immediately after planting. I think it would work for Melusi perfectly
@J Black84 yea you either have a very short term and by that I mean instant term, if you simply want to know someone has touched on that area Or you use it pressure and lock down an area where they can't just casually look away to shoot it
I knew macie was gonna be insane on this operator. The map knowledge with the micro management AND the surpressor to hide where his shots are coming from is just *chef's kiss*
I think an interesting approach to your "themed/focused" operator videos would be where at the end you show yourself playing against those and how to get out of certain situations
@Hutchyy fr he's prob gonna get nerfed. They thought the way that Lesion gave info was unfair but gave Fenrir gadgets that he can see through walls AND tells him callout locations
@@Hutchyy Yep, Ubi balancing doesn't make sense. Same goes for Zofia nerf after one bullshit wave of reddit butthurt when someone clutched with self-revive in high stakes match. Now everyone get self revive from Rook armor, Finka (herself as well while being downed) or Thunderbird. Still Zofia hasn't seen her passive come back
I think they need to limit him in some way. Like making the smoke less obstructing or for less time. Or maybe just give him fewer gadgets. Idk, he just seems extremely strong.
I mean Macy actually has the brain to use him properly. I have seen terrible Fenrir players and good ones. Which implies fenrir is balanced. If he was too strong then everyone would be good with him.
@@alexv5581 That's not a good indicator of whether something is balanced or not. But its tricky to balance characters that are stronger in higher skilled players hands than a low skilled one but if a character clearly has a lot of advantages that far outweigh the costs they need to get toned down a bit.
@@smellypatel5272 Just what I’ve gathered by watching his streams. He often voices how much he dislikes the current meta/matchmaking, and how it doesn’t make the game fun for him; Which I assume is tough if you’re forced to play it every day to keep your career going.
@@smellypatel5272 very similar grievances that a lot of players have. I’m sure you can go through some of his, and other siege content creator tweets and figure it out :)
I was testing him and is amazing. I can receive information, block vision, take battles from more secure positions. And you have to micro manage your traps and position. Its amazing
4:29 this strat was broken dude. The distance, mobility, that wall at the right making sure there's no flank while you keep watching at the two doorways Fenrir's traps. 💯
That really reminds me how I use to play lesion back when he first came out. back when his traps stayed on the UI until they where triggered. I remember getting a handfull of wall bangs doing that.
To everyone who says that fenrir is broken and that he should be nerfed like lesion. I feel like I should remind you that we are in a gun fight meta if we want to counter it we should just make stronger gadgets. I personally think we should also give lesion his ability to see his mines again, think about buffs rather than nerfs
Aside from the fact Fenrir is a Great Op on his own, he benefits and makes other operators great as well! With that being said i think he’s a bit too strong with the affect of the FNAT still in use even outside of the range. Id like it that he’d get the nerf lesion did in which you cant tell which FNAT is active & affecting the enemy.
I agree - so far my only major complaint is how long the effect lasts once you leave it's AoE. I would imagine this is the first thing they nerf if/when they do revisit him
fenrir's gadget was designed with that being a cornerstone of his ability lesions wasn't and made him overtuned as he was able to be both a trap, op and intel op capable of wall bangs fenrirs have a much larger AOE than a gue mine so setting up wallbangs with his gadget requires you to exploit specific geometry of the map.
Man MP7 with the suppressor is super superior on fenrier, because When you walk into that fear inducing gas you know that you're going to be dead by the time you find out 😮💜💜💜
it's insane to me to make a bullet proof gadget that you could just hide anywhere. they absolutely either need to make it shootable or make it to where you place it like a melusi gadget
It's a weird spot its like strong and can yet be not impactful My guess is they will balance the number of active mines down by 1 He will still maintain the same activation and deactivation speed since its the key feature of his defense concept, fast switch of active defense A different way to work him around is you can activate them and it last a certain amount of time being a detector before switching off to recharge Gas maintain for 5 sec unless the enemy is no longer detected then mine will switch off to recharge So this will play into the dynamic of you either spread your defense wide but thin Or bolster it narrow but hard to pass. So if the guy baited the gas out safely and ran to let it deactivate, Fenrir has to activate the 2nd one he placed at the same spot immediately to regain information and territorial control
i love how they change the battlepass so you can prioritize which reward you want to get first. but the UI of the battlepass is absolute horrendous. i hate how you have to look around with right click and arrow keys. i hope next season ubi will make it possible to zoom in and out of the map for better view of the battlepass
Honestly so much more OP than lesion... they removed his ability to see where the GUs were for the very reason that fenrir is now so strong... except fenri is 10x better
Imagine playing against a 5 stack using operators that hit you with an effect going through a door. Fenrir, Lesion, Ela, Melusi, Kapkan/Thorn Everything would be fine constantly pulling needles out of your feet until you get hit by kapkan, slowed by melusi, blinded by fenrir and disoriented by ela all at once.
With this new character Macie's k/d must be above the roof. I think Ubisoft will nerf this new Op by limiting the similtaneous use of its gadget at the same time.
Why did the Ash show up through the wall right here? 5:22 Is that part of the ability cause I do not see it anywhere else in the video? Its like wall hacks Edit: I see it now. It was the Cav interrogation.
I'm loving when people get a false sense of security getting hit with the fear but not being attacked, then pushing forward only to die immediately

@@cosmicconcious making it throwable would more good probably
That transition at 6:09 is amazing
seriously the editor needs a raise for that one
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one
As a Brava main I can confirm that fenrir is a great operator 😀👍🏻
Man I know for what you’re saying it 😅👍
How is this balanced but Lesion being able to see where his gus are is too strong
It's not balanced, Siege is pay to win 😂 new operators are always OP until they get nerfed
3 VS lesions 9 or how ever many gus you can place in a round
@@MrGamingPsycho yeah over the course of a whole round rather than from the start
@@micweis hardly, it hasn't been like that since ela
@@micweisNearly all of our last new ops have been trash
I knew macie was gonna be insane on this operator. The map knowledge with the micro management AND the surpressor to hide where his shots are coming from is just *chef's kiss*
@5:42 the duality of Macie missing a few shots on unsuspecting enemy and then gets 3 headshots in a row
I think an interesting approach to your "themed/focused" operator videos would be where at the end you show yourself playing against those and how to get out of certain situations
He's like old Lesion but instead providing damage and assists, blocking vision.
And that was op but this is fine? From a salty ex lesion main
@@Hutchyy i remember when I started playing and didn't know anything. I only used and got high scores because of the old assist system. Good times 😂
@Hutchyy fr he's prob gonna get nerfed. They thought the way that Lesion gave info was unfair but gave Fenrir gadgets that he can see through walls AND tells him callout locations

@@Casevil669 It does make sense from their pov. They want new operators to be as OP as possible to drive battlepass sales.
I was literally just saying “hmmm where is my Macie video for breakfast”
Brother it’s noon
@@jackolo53ay man some people got issues
@@griff1240 or they are just not on your time zone, yep that exists.
😂 I'm watching it for dinner
@@halomexx2581yeah ik
I wish everyone play Siege like that at 4:37
Teamwork
That aim is so amazing...
I've been waiting all week for this video!! I was so excited to see how Macie would use this operator
That transition at 6:10 tripped me TF out!

Absolute demon with Fenrir, great vid as always man 🫡
Insane transition with the alibi
@@anicegg thank you lmao i was too lazy to fill it in
"Why is Doc always dead when u need help" That's so true lmao
Haven't played R6 in a little over a year now. Still enjoying Macie's content
1:38 the most callout ever
Macie jay always with the absolute sick transitions
Ubi sponsoring macie to literally do the best operator introduction possible is a big brain move
It's great how a team with a Brava can counter Fenrir pretty effectively. Loving the new op and loving your gameplay.
NEVER STOP PLLSSS KEEP GAME ALIVE
2:04 you know it’s good when the dog agrees
I have been really enjoying playing him, so much map control.
bro I haven't watched you since Y1 S2 when I started playing the game and I was trying to learn. Nostalgia at its finest
he is outstanding. i LOVE using his ability.
totally alerts me where attackers come in, clouds their vision, and allows for easy callouts
Sounds op. I can smell the nerfs already
Macie uploading always makes my day
Any other person, I'd say it was by accident, but with Macie that sick transition was on purpose 6:09
Nice video. I know this new season's been tough on ya but I appreciate your content.
What do you mean it has been tough on him?

Macie I've been waiting for this video
YESSSS NEW VIDEO!!!!💜
“there’s no way he stays like this” 😂 who’s gonna tell him?
The greatest R6 content creater, bar none.
I was testing him and is amazing. I can receive information, block vision, take battles from more secure positions. And you have to micro manage your traps and position. Its amazing
Brava and twitch are must picks imo this season
4:29 this strat was broken dude.
The distance, mobility, that wall at the right making sure there's no flank while you keep watching at the two doorways Fenrir's traps. 💯
Perfect breakfast video
Macie is the definition of a good player
“This is a sponsored video”
“THIS OPERATOR IS INCREDIBLE! 💥”
That really reminds me how I use to play lesion back when he first came out. back when his traps stayed on the UI until they where triggered. I remember getting a handfull of wall bangs doing that.
love you macie, keep up the good work!!

DAAAM that 6:08 transition was unreal
This dude getting nerfed into the ground soon, no way around that.
'This gas is working beautifully....'
If Lesion lost his ability to see his Gu Mines through walls, I feel like Fenrir shouldn't have it.
I like them being like super buffed prox alarms I think they should mess with the blinding effect so they are mostly just information
fenrir's gadget was designed with that being a cornerstone of his ability lesions wasn't and made him overtuned as he was able to be both a trap, op and intel op capable of wall bangs fenrirs have a much larger AOE than a gue mine so setting up wallbangs with his gadget requires you to exploit specific geometry of the map.
Fenrir is so good he even got Macie good teammates for most of the video! Impressive!
Ubisoft got enough money to sponsor videos but not enough money to fix Ubisoft connect 🤣🤣 on a real note, amazing video!
This player show's no Macie 😅
Great video as always!
It's just so satisfying to swing on a triggered mine and the enemy is just lost in the sauce.
Sheesh macey with that Ubisoft sponsor💪🏻
I play Fenrir as one of my main ops now. I like when they all start coughing. [In voice of Palpatine] Yes, yes, I know my child, the end is coming.
"def on breach" whaa whaaa xD hahahaha
For the battle pass you spend 1200 to get it but you end up getting back 600 rc from it so really you get the battle pass for only 600 rc
Man MP7 with the suppressor is super superior on fenrier, because When you walk into that fear inducing gas you know that you're going to be dead by the time you find out 😮💜💜💜
it’s like he plays the same ppl everytime he uploads. I see Tango and Hotel in every vid lol
2:04 *woof*
Exactly!
😂😂😂
They really knocked it out the park with the last 3 defenders
He's so broken, it's like a stronger version of the old Lesion
Bruh, that transition @6:11 had me tweaking for a bit. I felt like my eyes crossed 😂
Doggo says good round at 2:03 😊
“exactly!”
Let's go Merci Macie Jay for the contenu
He’s basically a melusi and a proxy alarm in one.
Wake up babe macie just posted
you make every operator look OP, but perhaps this one really is
Got the Kali-weaponskin as soon as possible, good thing since I half-main Kali these days.
been waiting for the fenrir plays. he isnt super meta changing but i do like them adding new mechanics still xX
Dude Fenrir's impact in a match is equivalent to Ash having 4 ash charges and 2 frag grenades
I hope they dont nerf the mp7 now
They’re probably just gonna give him a worse gun and remove his bailiff he does so much by himself
MP7 too goes to the list of guns with messed up reload animations. Thanks Ubi
it's insane to me to make a bullet proof gadget that you could just hide anywhere. they absolutely either need to make it shootable or make it to where you place it like a melusi gadget
tfw you realize that your Doc main always dies first
Sounds like you're having fun man! Do you think they'll nerf Fenrir or that he's generally too strong?
It's a weird spot its like strong and can yet be not impactful
My guess is they will balance the number of active mines down by 1
He will still maintain the same activation and deactivation speed since its the key feature of his defense concept, fast switch of active defense
A different way to work him around is you can activate them and it last a certain amount of time being a detector before switching off to recharge
Gas maintain for 5 sec unless the enemy is no longer detected then mine will switch off to recharge
So this will play into the dynamic of you either spread your defense wide but thin
Or bolster it narrow but hard to pass. So if the guy baited the gas out safely and ran to let it deactivate, Fenrir has to activate the 2nd one he placed at the same spot immediately to regain information and territorial control

5:04 you can literally hear nokk take her last breaths. has that always been in the game?? lol
There is no way in hell I'm buying a battlepass that requires to be purchased again in every season.
It’s a good day when Macie uploads
Daddy Macie

Imagine playing against a 5 stack using operators that hit you with an effect going through a door.
Fenrir, Lesion, Ela, Melusi, Kapkan/Thorn
Everything would be fine constantly pulling needles out of your feet until you get hit by kapkan, slowed by melusi, blinded by fenrir and disoriented by ela all at once.
This operator is a counter to the tdm meta
the anti-agressive-peek op
Has anyone ever told you that you sound like Scotty Vanity from his song I Like Your Hair?
With this new character Macie's k/d must be above the roof. I think Ubisoft will nerf this new Op by limiting the similtaneous use of its gadget at the same time.
Nobody demonstrates operators abilities better than you
That kali rifle skin is deadass a straight copy and paste of the oni vandal in valorant
Ban every game until nerf. He's so annoying lol
Why did the Ash show up through the wall right here? 5:22 Is that part of the ability cause I do not see it anywhere else in the video? Its like wall hacks
Edit: I see it now. It was the Cav interrogation.
So insanely over powered. Insta ban for me
Yo on clubhouse that sounded like Endra… was that endra?
The release of this op just makes Lesion a glorified monty annoyer
After a week to say he is the best defender. I dont know Macie. To earlie 👍
unreal 👏
