Attacking Operators and their counterparts (WIP)

By Taigh

{A useful Guide for once}
With the summer sale that has just recently passed at the time of writing this guide Siege saw a large influx of new players joining the community. This guide has been written to help these new community members learn to play the game to a better standard - by showing them the direct counter part to every attacking operator in the game (in my opinion), as of the 8th July 2017. This goes well with my other guide "Defending Operators and their counterparts" (Linked at the bottom of the guide)

Sledge

Sledge is apart of the English Organisation SAS, he is a 2 Armor 2 Speed operator. His unique gadget is his "Tactical Breaching Hammer" that allows him to breach through most structures such as barricaded doors and windows.

In my opinion Sledge doesnt have any direct countering operators, although one of the best ways to counter him is to reinforce as many walls on the objective as you and your team can, which he cannot then breach through.

Thatcher

Thatcher is also apart of the English Organisation SAS, and is a 2 Armor 2 Speed operator. His unique gadget is his three "EG MKO-EMP Grenades" which can disable all electronic devices and gadgets that fall withing its proximity.

Thatcher has 1 main countering operator:

1.Jäger:
Jäger's ADS can intercept Thatcher's EMP grenades if they are aimed poorly, this will destroy the EMP and stop it from having any effect on enemies gadgets.

Ash

Ash works for the American Organisation FBI Swat, she is a 1 Armor 3 Speed operator. Her unique gadget is her grenade launcher the "M120 CREM" that can fire two breaching rounds which can burrow into a surface and detonate automatically. She can destroy things such as deployable shields and castle barricades.

Ash has 1 main countering operator:

1.Jägerr:
Jäger's ADS can intercept Ash's breaching rounds if it poorly aimed.

Another counter to Ash that is similar to Sledge is if you and your team barricade as many walls as possible on the objective this will help slow her down and make it harder to breach into an objective.

Thermite

Thermite works for FBI Swat, an American Organisation, and is a 2 Armor 2 Speed operator. His unique gadget is the two "Brimstone BC-3 Exothermic Charges" he has access to, these charges allow Thermite to breach through reinforced walls.

Thermite has 2 main countering operators:

1.Mute:
Mute has access to his Signal Disruptor which if placed next to a reinforced wall it will jam and stop Thermite's breaching charge from detonating and creating a hole.
2.Bandit:
Bandit has access to four electrical devices which if placed on a reinforced wall can destroy Thermite's charges if he deploys them on the electrified wall.

Twitch

Twitch is apart of the French Organisation GIGN, she is a 2 Armor 2 Speed operator. Her unique gadget is her two shock drones that she hass access to which she can deploy to shott a small electrical charge at enemies gadgets to disable them, or she can shoot at players to damage them.

Twitch has 1 main counter:

1.Mute:
Mute's jammers can disrupt communication to the drones if they drive into the area of effect, which will stop them from working. Although, Twitch can destroy his jammers by shooting at them with the drone, if it is not already jammed.

Montagne

Montagne works for the French Organisation GIGN, he is a 3 Armor 1 Speed operator. His unique gadget is his extendable shield that he has access to - which, when extended, offers him full body protection.

Montagne has 3 main counters:

1.Rook:
Rook has access to body armor that he can drop for himself and his team mates, which provide them with extra damage resistance, bringing them closer to the protection Mont has.
2.Doc:
Doc has access to a stim pistol which he can use to heal himself and team mates, aloowing them to take more shots, combatting Montagne.
3.Smoke:
Smoke can use his poisonous gas canister to throw at mont and then activate them which will harm him while he is surrounded by it.

Glaz

Fuze

Fuze is apart of the Russian Organisation Spetsnaz, and is a 3 Armor 1 Speed operator. His unique gadget is his three "APM-6 Cluster Charges" that he has access to, these charges fire 5 "sub-grenades" through destructible surfaces, usually resulting in a kill.

Fuze has 1 main counterpart:

1.Jäger:
Jäger has access to his ADS that can stop incomming projectiles like Fuze's cluster charge. A single ADS will not destriy all five grenades from the charge but more than one can be placed at a surface for it to be more effective.

Blitz

Blitz works for the German Organisation GSG9 and is a 3 Armor 1 Speed operator. His unique gadget is his "G52-Tactical Shield" which has the ability to flash enemies which are facing the shield; blinding them.

Blitz has 1 main countering operator:

1.Mute:
Mute's jammers can block communication to blitz' shield, which will stop him from being able to blind his opponents.

IQ works for the German Organisation GSG9, and is a 1 Armor 3 Speed operator. Her unique gadget is her electronics detector, which allows her to see enemy gadgets through walls and floors.

IQ has 2 main counters:

1.Mute:
Mute's jammer can jam IQ's electronic sensor which will disable it from highlighting enemy gadgets.
2.Pulse:
Pulse has access to a cardiac sensor that allows him to see enemy heartbeat through walls. But there is a downside that IQ can see Pulse's sensor when he is using it, giving her the chance to get a free kill.

Buck

Blackbeard

Capitão

Hibana

Hibana works for the Japenese Organisation SAT, and she is a 1 Armor 3 Speed operator. Her unique gadget is her "X-KAIROS launcher" which fires pellets that can be detonated from a distance to breach holes through a reinforced wall.

Hibana has 2 countering operators:

1.Mute:
Mute has access to his Signal Disruptor which if placed next to a reinforced wall it will jam and stop Hibana's pellets from detonating and creating a hole.
2.Bandit:
Bandit has access to four electrical devices which if placed on a reinforced wall can destroy Hibana's pellets if she deploys them on the electrified wall.

Jackal

Jackal works for the Spanish Organisation GEO, he is a 2 Armor 2 Speed operator. His unique gadget is his "Eyenox Model III" which can track enemy footprints and reveal their location if scanned.

Jackal has 2 main counters:

1.Mute:
Mute's jammer can interupt communication to Jackal's HUD, making it very hard to see while he has it activated.
2.Caveira:
Caviera's footsteps cannot be seen by Jackal when she was using her Silent Step ability, making her very hard to track.

If you are still updating it:

Sledge:
+ Oryx ( Running through the wall where you suspect he will be lul )

Thermite/Hibana:
+ Kaid

Fuze:
+ Mute

Twitch:
+ Mozzie
+ Bandit
+ Kaid
+ Vigil ( You can't shoot what you can't see, in a perfect scenario he could also even quickly run to where she is to kill her. )

Montagne/Blitz:
+ Frost
+ Lesion
+ Kaid (Barbed wire + ranged electricity)
+ Kapkan ( Don't know how much damage it would do, but if attacker is not paying attention, it can cause some damage. )
+ Goyo ( If shield is trying to get past it, you can shoot the shield. )
+ Ela
+ Maestro ( If a camera is behind you, you either turn around to destroy the cam which ends in you getting shot in the back, or risk getting killed by the cam. ( especially if low on hp. ) )

would add lesion as a counter to Monty as he takes dmg, lowers his shield, he can extend it again fast, but will have to suffer the dmg ticks.

Herrerom 25 Oct, 2019 @ 4:52pm

nice review ,in fuze i would have added mute because he can avoid fuze to use the gadget
