Operators

Best Attackers in Rainbow Six Siege

How to choose an attacker: the roles every team needs, and the operators that fill each one well.

Pick for the team, not the tier list

An attacker is only as strong as the roles around them. A team with three fraggers and no hard breach can lose before the first gunfight. Start by asking which role your team is missing.

The roles to cover

Hard breach: Thermite, Hibana and Ace open reinforced walls. Maverick creates small silent angles.

Utility clear: Thatcher, Kali, Twitch and Zero remove what stops your breach.

Entry: Iana, Ash and Deimos take first contact. Plant support: Capitão, Gridlock and Nomad protect the defuser.

When bans change the picture

If Thatcher is banned, Kali and Zero become your wall-clear plan. If Thermite is banned, Hibana and Ace still give you a hard breach. Learn one backup for each role.
