I am new to R6, but getting better over time. Starting to understand the game I would argue that Blackbeard is a good operator. But my friend that introduced me says Blackbeard is an all around well known shitty operator. What do you guys think about Blackbeard?
I think Macie Jay showed best how he can be used in today’s game. Firstly, it does require you to have good aim, since the shield only blocks one bullet lol. But take him on entries that see a lot of defender swings from a specific area. The one that Macie showed off was blue tunnel on Oregon. People swing the door to the exterior so much that a good Blackbeard can take advantage of quite easily. He also has EMPs (for now) that help with hard breaching the wall.
Some other places that it could work: Oregon 2nd floor big window/tower, Bank underground tunnel, Emerald Plains balcony wall/freezer, Skyscraper Geisha/tea balcony. I’m sure there’s more too.
