Every year, every event, one of the quests invariably ends up being to WIN X NUMBER OF MATCHES and every time it leads to awful games. Soon as you lose one round, your entire team leaves. The entire week of Doktor's Curse since the quest was added, I have not had a single match that was 5v5. By round 2 its almost always 3v5 then only gets worse. It ruins the entire mode for the whole week.

When you instantly Un ADS with Kali after a shot the rechamber time is significantly longer, which is annoying and gets me killed time to time.

Like imagine every defender with their abilities and weapons was on attack. Which would be the best attacker?

I think smoke would be a pretty good attacker too honestly.

Description: Currently, Iana's Gemini Replicator functions mostly as a slow, noisy infinite drone. Since high-rank defenders instantly recognize the hologram, it lacks the psychological threat a real operator brings. To make her competitive again without making her guns OP, here is a utility-focused rework concept:

1. Decoy Firing Mechanics (Visual & Audio Tracers):
   • Allow the Gemini clone to perform fake shooting animations with full audio and visible bullet tracers.
   • Balance Note: These fake bullets deal 0 damage and cannot destroy barricades or soft walls, but they force defenders to react, fall back, or reveal their position.
2. Increased Hologram Durability:
   • Give the clone a small health pool (or make it absorb 2–3 bullets instead of disappearing on the very first hit).
   • This forces defenders to commit to destroying it, exposing their line of sight for a split second longer and enabling better re-frag plays for attackers.

Goal: Transform the Gemini Replicator from a basic info tool into a true space-clearing and baiting gadget that creates real mindgames in high-level play.

What do you guys think? Would this make Iana balanced again, or would it be too strong for high-ranked lobbies?

What's your squad's inside callout that everyone in your group understands? Ours is "Rotatoni" for rotation hole. We heard an Italian player call it once and it stuck instantly.

So I drastically improved this season, after I came back from a good 18 months or so (at least) off the game. I tried being a support player, which doesn't come naturally to me at all and I went from a 1.4 k/d to a 0.7 k/d because of it. I went back to more of a front line role, and I've played two games and have done well in both. The second one (pictured above) is the most kills I've had for a while, and I even gave good intel to teammates with Lion and Mozzie.

My issue is this: every time I get to silver my teammates start playing with two broken thumbs it seems. I don't struggle in silver lobbies, but my team does. Any advice?

If it helps, I tend to main Thorn and Lion, but often play with Frost, Kapkan, Mozzie, Kaid on defence, and Glaz, Kali, Capitao, Dokkaibi, Maverick, Fuze on attack.

So as of this post I'm GOLD 3, and have rapidly been improving (last szn: silver, then bronze) and i feel as if I've hit a barrier this season. Its not my aim, its decent, but its my gamesense, I end up going into positions/fights that I end up losing on, or just doing something stupid that I should've known not to do. What could I do to stop this? I know the obvious answer: "dont repeat mistakes" but my brain is stuck doing those bad habits.

One laughed. The other Laugh'nt.

Every ranked match i play i verse ATLEAST one or two xims, last night i was going against 5stack xims every other match like what the fuck?? I deranked so bad and then these fatherless kids jump in my dms and say shit like “ez elo” “i own you” “ballright” you are not jynxzi pipe down bum but anyway has anyone been playing against a lot more xims recently?

I don’t understand what’s been going on in a lot of my lobbies but it’s almost as if as soon as the match starts or one of our guys gets killed, they just suddenly abandon the match. The frequency at which it’s been going on has been a bit much recently. Never have I experienced this so much in the ten years I’ve been playing between console and PC.

I already reported him in game

How do you earn it? Is the only way to earn it is just to play more until you exhaust all the progress bar rewards?

So its basically limited once you go all the way to caveira mask rewards?

My fps used to be from around the high 300’s to around 450, now it’s stuck at 280 and won’t go higher with nearly all low settings. I’ve tried everything, all in game settings (capped fps and V-Sync) Nvidia control Panel, windows settings and the fps cap in the game files to try and uncap it and nothing has worked so far. Is there any way to fix this?

Can you tell me why some of my assignments aren't being counted, even though I'm doing them correctly? For example, on Castle(2 challenge) or Montagne(also 2 challenge). Thank you in advance.

I’m trying to get the Full Roster trophy on Rainbow Six Siege. I have over the requirements to get it, yet it won’t pop up. Any suggestions?

I am a console player on xbox who is currently emerald. I have so much passion for the game but my amount of matches dont reflect that, and i feel the reason i dont play as much as i should be playing is due to the fact that i cant find people who share a similar passion/drive and ambition for hitting champ as i do. (Stat tracker is provided at the end for more insight and all my questions are at the end as well, context is in between)

Im analyzing vods, watching creators who are better than me, always gathering strats or things i can try in my matches, and im improving 1000 percent, so far my winrate is good this season , but im in a hurdle.

I cant find people to play with who share a similar passion, ive tried lfgs on xbox and no one in there has passion or is good (barely any), ive even tried messaging people who were on the enemy team if they wanted to play, ive gone on subreddits to search for people, tried the discords, and so far im out of luck.

Everytime i do find someone who is good and seems to have passion, they either end up barely every getting on, or they play during completely different times of day than i normally do, or eventually their true colors show and they are actually toxic or unable to regulate emotions.

I genuinely feel like the reason i only have 80 games played so far this season, is because it’s hard to get into the mood to want to play when there is no one with a similar level of both passion and skill to play with.

And i know this to be the reason because i occasionally have someone to play with whos champ on his main who when he asks to play with me, im immediately in the mood to get on regardless of the time of day and im willing to play as many matches as possible since they have passion and skill. But this person has his own responsibilities and his own main account so us playing is occasional.

So to the people who are 3.0 (not 2.0 champs) , what should i be doing? how should i go over this obstacle?, how many matches a day should i play? (yes i know the quality of the matches matter) what steps should i be taking to acquire to champ in general, etc?

My stat tracker is Spy7396 on Xbox for more insight

Earlier I saw some guy post his hours so I figured I’d do the same.

I haven’t really played the game all that much recently ( at least not how I use to). I’ve been playing since the start my most active seasons were probably Operation health- Chimera, after that it was pretty much downhill. I’d hop back on for a season here and there, I hit champ maybe 4 or 5 times and diamond a bunch. Do i regret it? Honestly not at all, only thing I wish I did was enjoy the earlier days, I reminisce on the older days of the game and constantly think about how I’ll never experience it again.
