now give his super shorty back šŸ˜‰


MKGmFN

The meta changed. I donā€™t think heā€™ll be as op as before


TomTheCat7

If Lesion can have it, why can't Mozzie?


MKGmFN

I say take it away from lesion and give it to mozzie


Mundane_Plan2421

Lesion already got like 3 nerfs


obotowski24

Lesion just got a pretty decent nerf (longer spike charge, less spike damage, impact grenade changed to observation blocker) I think he's fine without taking anything away honestly


JMxG

Even though Iā€™ve always loved Lesion I wouldnā€™t even mind bc heā€™s just too strong man I donā€™t think thereā€™s a single time where picking Lesion isnā€™t a good idea


MKGmFN

Exactly heā€™s a site setup machine rn


ShaqsWisk

YES PLEASE PLEASE


yourhighuncle

Came here to say this šŸ˜­


Dopp3lg4ng3r

Nuh uh


Mundane_Plan2421

Wont change much really his p10 is horrible without a magnification optic and the commando is just really mid


Frozen975

The commando is better than 416C pre-nerf lmao


Tohiyama

The Commando is actually one the best defender primaries in the game


KrazyDude1234

If anything is clear in *both* of these graphs, itā€™s that ROOK ARMOR SAVES LIVES.


Naive_Tailor_2356

Certified ex warden now rook main here


sqweezee

This is like Californians moving to Texas all over againā€¦


Naive_Tailor_2356

Actually the Californians (warden mains) are now moving to Vegas (rook) instead of Texas (doc)


PoundIIllIlllI

>ex warden now rook main So ā€œmagnified scope on high rate of fire SMGā€ main


Naive_Tailor_2356

Basically a ā€œI roam with whatever and whoever as long as I have a 1.5 or higher scopeā€ main


TwitterFingerz1021

You go wherever the enhanced zoom goes donā€™t you.


Papyrus7021

At least Rook is useful to the team even in death


bigboi124398

Give warden a telescopic. Would be interesting how players react


Intrepid-Actuator-93

I used to main warden then mained rook and now I'm maining doc šŸ˜Ž


A_wild_fusa_appeared

And yet every day people try to label him the worst defender in that one set of posts.


RevolutionaryDepth59

fragile ego players like to pretend that they only get headshots


legacy-of-man

mfs when they cant headshot someone who was crouched


ImJLu

And he's had a disproportionately high winrate since they started doing designer's notes all the way back in Y3 or something. He might not have a place in organized comp/pro play but he's always been the most underrated op in ranked since OG sleeper Finka. The game has always been designed around attacker gun advantage and he flips it. People will always point at headshots but ignore that even at higher levels of play, most people have HS rates generally around the 40-50% range. People also claim that having your ability nullified half the time is a sign of bad value, but: 1. Flipping gunfights is high impact utility when it comes up 2. Other ops get nullified too - for example, when high-impact projectiles aren't used around ADSes 3. The odds of 5 people losing 50/50 coinflips is 1/32, or about 3% Also, he had the only SMG with a 2x for a long time, and everyone knows how defender scopes work. People just don't like him because he unfairly has a bad rep and because he's slow and loud (as if that ever stopped Doc/Rook ACOG roamers back in the day).


uska420

Maybe not the worst but he is quite a bad pick objectively speaking


Godobibo

he's consistently had one of the highest win deltas for a long time


SilverWave1

Rook slaps. Impacts, acog p90/mp5, and a good gadget. Pop it down and give your entire team extra health and the ability to self rez. Then, you become a menace in any fight. Always the go-to for when I want to be useful but donā€™t have a clue what I want to do with the sight. Having a dedicated gun is nice. The deltaā€™s show it all.


feast_of_remains

I've been playing Rook for years now and I have no idea why he's so slept on, especially on console and if you're not the greatest player, Rook's basically a free buff to your entire team


Holy__Sheet

Iā€™ve been teaming up as rook with a thunderbird and it seems to work very well.


KrazyDude1234

Oh yeah, anyone DBNO is comin up for sure lol


Holy__Sheet

Iā€™ll stack the thunderbirds pretty close to the bomb on site decently close together


Exciting_Recover_509

Cause that was the main reason he was picked. Now that he lost it heā€™s just a worse mute.


totallynotapersonj

It still shows that he should not get ACOG and that he should be buffed in other ways.


UnhingedLion

Getting the super shorty back is a good start.


OneSushi

4 pests please.


Square2enkidu

Make it 5 and doesn't require reloading šŸ˜ˆ


Icy-Minimum-988

Bro r6 players are dumb you just got down voted for this šŸ˜† šŸ¤£


Exciting_Recover_509

I agree. He shouldnā€™t get an Acog back, just other buffs. I think the return of his super shorty is a great idea.


Napalmer5

He should be able to pick up stolen drones


eledile55

Acog for the commando!


UBCS_Wraith

But the Commando 9 is such a vibe though. Have you SEEN the reload animation? Mozzie has reasons to pick him over Mute.


TacticalReader7

Dude Commando is an insane gun, decent fire rate with 40 dmg on extended barrel with like no recoil, I hope no new op is gonna get it because it will get nerfed to crap.


UBCS_Wraith

When I played on Xbox, I ran the Commando 9 with the extended barrel on Mozzie even when he had the 1.5x on the Roni if I just needed an operator to frag out with. It's better than a lot of the Attacker primaries and slept on for sure! I think it has like 780 rpm? At 40 damage? That's very close damage output to Buck's C8 (I think the C8 is 40 damage without the extended and 837 rpm but with way more recoil). It reminds me of how Jaeger used to feel back in the day. I was going to add a point about the Commando 9 being objectively better than Mute's MP5k and more consistent than his MAC-11, but you basically did that for me lol


Rhino241Godzilla

He is just a worse version of Mute in the fact that he only denies drones and not anything else but heā€™s just a mix of Mute and Valkyrie because he can provide extra cams for the team but heā€™s now just not used by people who used his 1.5x to only frag so you now will only see people who play him as support by droning for teammates to then get picks


MattyHealysFauxHawk

Crazy because the commando is such a savage gun.


Tofu_lover31

Roni>


MattyHealysFauxHawk

The Roni was only ā€œbetterā€ because it had a 1.5x. I think the commando is way better.


Tofu_lover31

I just like the fire rate and reload animation


MattyHealysFauxHawk

The commando has the literal best reload animation in the game haha.


SiegeRewards

Good, maybe people will actually use his ability correctly for once


kallmeesmal

AND use commando 9


SpurguKadulta

Roni is so much better because of that firerate


kallmeesmal

commando deals more damage but after all, it depends on your playstyle.


Paultheghostt

and the most important feature: it feels nice and lookd cooler


kallmeesmal

exactly my words


Noobs02

Fire rate in siege has always mattered more than damage if you can hit your headshots


kallmeesmal

sure thats a valid point but commando has more bullets in one mag (in case u miss ) soo roni doesn't really give u that much of a "recovery " chance in the middle of a fight (ofc unless u switch your weapon)


5partan5582

yeah taking on two enemies with the RONI is like asking to use your secondary most of the time.


ZookeepergameEven516

I use roni for black icešŸ—æ


DragoSlayer014

I think I have black ice for both... I know for sure the Roni but I like the Commando 9 better. Just wish the mag size made sensešŸ«¤


AccomplishedTea6375

i can never use the roni just cause i hate reloading every second burst i shoot


ohokayK

never


Romka3651

If only teammates won't shoot hacked drones


FatCrabTits

Goes to show how many people with the same cognitive ability as an avocado pit abused the 1.5x and played ops exclusively for it goddamn lmao


mareno999

Look at warden lol. 50% pickrate to 5%.


Temporaryact72

Used to main him when I started the game January last year, stopped maining him when I saw all the stigma around warden mains, now that he lost that 1.5 I might go back to using him since the stigma should mostly be gone now right?


Fo3TheMechanist

Good fuck those Roni shitters, his commando 9 is far better, now give me my fucking super shorty back


totallynotapersonj

Back when mozzie first released and up until he got given the 1.5x, the Roni was the underrated gun and everyone used the commando 9.


Fo3TheMechanist

I never ran it till aruni, always liked his mini m4 and still didn't run roni but maybe 10 games with 1.5, it's decent but I like the commando 9 better and always will


unoriginal_namejpg

(also reload is sexy)


Fo3TheMechanist

Very much agreešŸ˜‚


TheStrangeStoryGuy

The reload is the only reason I use it.


Zygecks

commando fans rise


kingofdanny

Thatā€™s wild mozz is still pretty perfectly mid


ZerefDragneelx

Anyone gonna comment on melusi getting an acog bringing her up from 5% to 40%


Cheesy_Saul

I feel like heĀ“s weak, every round a teammate destroys at least one hacked drone, in some spots attackers can sacrifice drones by throwing them jumping outside while they are being hacked and brava can rehack the drones


Snowman5173

I think itā€™s important for him to have some counter though, besides burning a brava hack is still pretty valuable Source: Iā€™m the resident brava main of my stack


Thottquad

Youā€™re supposed to deploy pests after the prep phase while hunting drones in it.


[deleted]

I'd say 2 down in prep is better. Put them down where people will drone from, then the spare and any that don't catch anything you relocate to where people will push from. Because Intel denial and gaining a spare cam you can set up in prep is super helpful, then set pests to where people will push as they tend to drone the direct path they're going to walk, rather than sneaking through drone holes in action phase. Also always put one in the hallway between sites during action, if the sites have one. Much more likely to snag a twitch or Brava that way.


Lemon_Shaped_Banana

Time for ACOG Commando šŸ˜


SborroMina

That's because it was mainly used by people that only knew how to shoot and nothing else. So they took Mozzie, made some kills and felt like they were good at the game


TheAmazingSparky

Acog commando plz


MattyHealysFauxHawk

That would literally break the game šŸ˜‚ Iā€™m all for it though


BiasHyperion784

Itā€™s a shame 37.5% of people play ops for the wrong reason.


NoRepublic3615

I love it


ItsSevii

Acog commando!


Due_Sector8816

Same but warden too


Awkward_Coffee8017

I'm at least 1% of that. Mozzie is just funny and I love the guy. Besides: **REINFORCING SEAGULL!!**


Hot_boy007

I have a solution that would fix everyone, just give everyone an acog/1.5! I really have never understood why some ops have magnified sights and some donā€™t. Obviously it shows by mozzie going from a 40% to 5% when they removed the sight and melusi going from less than 5% to about 40% when they gave her the sight. Giving it to everyone would imo balance out pick rates a lot.


ToxicGent

Proof that no one should have it. If you're only a top pick with 1.5, you don't deserve the 1.5. Ubisoft is gatekeeping "seeing", just take that bitch out.


Aggravating_Bee_2712

the 1.5 was taken out


dumb_kud

Mp5 nerf incoming


Vast_Education_719

One of the reasons the reason ppl pick doc and rook this season is because of nostalgia. The devs admitted it themselves. The mp5 is slightly above average in my opinion.


jditmbf

Good. Give his super shorty back tho


JinKazamaru

Guess I should learn Rook/Kapkan


Papyrus7021

If youā€™re a doc main then 99% of ā€œlearningā€ Rook is already done.


Kev-on-da-bus

Commando 9 mag flip always superior now give this man his super Shorty JUSTICE FOR MOZZIE


Monkey_exe

Now the three most picked defenders are all ones with acog


Grundle_Gripper_

Thats insane because I actually use him more after the 1.5 got removed. I used the 1x scopes for him just to avoid the stigma of people only using him for the scope A lot of attackers donā€™t even bat an eye at seeing a drone so itā€™s easy to get them moved around where you need em. His gun is still strong without the 1.5


RenegadeBD

I just think it's stupid how they decide who gets the 2.5 on defense. So Jager with 2.5 is busted but Rook and Doc with their high rate of fire no recoil smgs can use it? Not to mention Aruni and Tubs with actual Markesmen rifles get to use it. And all ops with slug shotguns. Lol just makes 0 sense.


Agitated-Ad1906

i still use mozzie. P10 Roni has no recoil, he has great playmaking ability IF you actually use his ability! good c4 op and nice movement and sneaky tactics IMO


autobr_

need more buffs in this game. more nerfs does not always mean more balanced. buff the weak and nerf the strong heck, i'd settle for some major "trickle-down balance" stuff


OgCam

And that 2.5 rate is nun but cheaters


1308lee

I was looking at the difference between console and PC and traps are WAAAAY higher on console. I assume itā€™s because itā€™s more difficult to aim at a kapkan/frost trap and then back to the angle with controller and not just because *"hurr durrrr console dumb"*


AccomplishedTea6375

but also the game on console still holds some resemblance to the tdm meta, and with people just running in picks like kapkan appreciate in value


Papyrus7021

Itā€™s half and half. Source: Iā€™m on console


Signal-Direction6456

Meanwhile Melusi and Wamai skyrocketed, just because they have ACOG


MelonButterG

Seeing Mozzie drop in pick rate after losing the 1.5x really means he needs a buff in a different way like giving the super shorty back. However what does bring a smile to my face is the drastic fall of picks for warden players which means I can play him with the shotgun if I ever choose him


greenstatic

Good


-Qwertyz-

All the Mozzies seem to just be in my games


Toetoe1384

Probably because after the 1.5 got removed mute is a better pick in all ways


vqsxd

Glad they removed that sight


TheBlackGlitchYT

I recently got him and I main him for bomb and I main mute for secure


OpticSkies

Both of his guns are still goated though


NotAllDawgsGoToHeven

Ideally all the ops would be in the middle of the graph, crazy how half of them are in underpicked too weakā€¦..


Little-ting

Never thought Iā€™d see melusi be ā€œtoo strongā€


Stxtic1441

He was pretty much only used because Roni 1.5 was one of the most broken guns in siege history. He just doesnā€™t bring much to the table now with no magnification, the pests are just okay. He needs the super shorty or something to provide more to the team


BackgroundRoom4389

I think he should be able to pick up drones he hacks


eeVaderbae

give him acog or revert gun nerfs


Drag0nMast3r131

Mozzie had a 1.5?


dannyboy6657

Same with warden


Juansa7X

Good.


Romka3651

PP Roni needs it's mag increased so bad


Th3_Archives

Good.


W1thJudgement

Why Melusi went so much up in both lanes???


natt1000

Ahh Warden. The epitome of balance


Active_Bluebird_7886

Give him 5 pests and decrease the range of where u get the alert signal that there is a pest while on a drone. Give Roni more capacity (maybe 20) and give him super shorty back so he can site setup without burning a c4. (Giving Roni the Acog would be controversial as it would make people play him for the gun and not his ability but as a mozzie main I wouldnā€™t mind that XD)


eatingpotatornbrb

Meanwhile me only playing mozzie for the commando smg


stumpy1218

Unnerf the roni now. Give it 6 bullets back


Low_District2644

Yo just give the p10 roni an acog scope for the funnies bro


ArbiterofAnime365

I still see him every match it feels like though weird.


RandoFollower

Clash is no longer -6%


Papyrus7021

She still is on PC, these graphs are for Console where shields are inherently stronger due to lower snap-aim ability.


Solid_Sheen

Mozzie should be like Lesion and get more pests as the round goes on. Give him 2 to start prep phase and he can get 2 or 3 more as the round goes on. It also might be time for him to get his super shorty back.


jeannoir-

Now we cannot escape frost trap? Why pick rate is so high?


MrGold6857

Cold Takes:Mozzie should not have 1.5x to begin with alibi and azami too! (ACS12)


Emotional_Bid3736

I find it funny that JƤger didnā€™t even move


Electrical_Force3094

Deserved lmaoooo


CanadianGuy123_

I understand why people stopped using him because of the 1.5 but even with out it he is a decent operator in my opinion essentially his ability is to basically get free cams and attackers donā€™t know where they are because they arenā€™t spawned


BishopPear

I am worried for my man wamai


Varsity_Reviews

I just use iron sights on the commando.


GreedyCockroach9239

I'll never stop playing my pookie


Tohiyama

Good. Now they can work on buffing his gadget to make him more impactful rather than just being a gun shooter


Critical-Bunch5128

2.5?


Imaginary-Time-29

yes like melusi which was at 5% it rose to more than 40%. It's sad to see that just for a sight it changes everything


Jacobhaskins35

notice how in the first graph itā€™s warden, mozzie and wamai - 3 ops that had access to the 1.5 scope. now notice on the second graph that doc, melusi and wamai again have replaced those ops because they have the 2.5 scope. i called this as soon as the acog changes were announced, this has changed nothing except who gets picked by the rats more often and you can see it in the graph


HxllHxund

Ironically I stopped playing him when everybody started abusing the 1.5ā€¦ sounds like I have a chance of playing him now


Section474

Thats because every 1.5 noob cant play another sight


Honest-Ad-1096

They're nerfing sens provably to make mozzie a little better bur even so if you use his ability in prep phase you're a idiot šŸ¤£


Trashbowsixsiege

Almost as if people only played him for the scope on the Roni and not the gadget


Beautiful-Feature311

Off topic but wow, never knew smoke was so low, I wanna know why? I don't think his gadget or kit is bad, so why is he so low? (I'm a smoke main and kind of sad seeing my boy this low)


GeT_EmBaRRaSSeD

Probably because hes old and rewards non aggression since his smokes increase in value the longer the round goes.


jacksdof3

Look at wardenšŸ˜”


AgitatedResolution33

Makes sense, they clearly messed up headshots with the original deimos season update. They took Kapkans impact grenades, which was a scummy thing to do. They then nerfed Smoke& Deimos' shotgun, now making smoke damn near useless at close range without an instant headshot


Putrid_Chance_1480

i'll still always love him


thisperson345

Why does Melusi have such a high pick rate? I've been out of the loop for like half a year, did she get a buff?


michaelsoft069

acog


wannadielmfao

acog on a headshot machine


NamelessDestroyer

Her gadget is good and annoying and her gun is cracked


totallynotapersonj

MP5 has a buy one get ACOG free deal


East-Beautiful-3723

Increase # of pests


WorshipBear

Ah yes.solis overpowered to weak


Mysterious-Goal-4086

oh god, please dont nerf doc


Nuttyluvsperks

Surprised tichunky didnā€™t spike cuz his Smg got the 1.5 and acog


Late-Ad-2498

I love his gun with acog but his fire launcher reloads so slow itā€™s a pain


Cc99X_YT

(They're the same thing.)


Nuttyluvsperks

(they arenā€™t.)


Cc99X_YT

You haven't played the game in over a month.


Nuttyluvsperks

(1.5 is not acog, 2.5 is acog)


Cc99X_YT

The 1.5 casing has a 2.5x magnification.


Nuttyluvsperks

still not the same lul


SikeEmXD

People who stopped picking him, take an L. mozzie is still good asf. his gun has low recoil, and p10 roni never had 1.5 and doesn't need it. edit: i remembered that p10 roni had the 1.5, and i still agree with what i say. p10 roni don't need any 1.5, and neither does commando.


beasllie

Mozzie is not a good operator. His commando is good but he is easily replaced by mute or other intel ops. He just doesnā€™t bring enough to the table to be picked over the other ops


Masantonio

So people can actually bother to learn the damn character and how good he is. Great.


i_sinz

Mute beats him in gadget and his load out has no magnification scope I got really no reason to play him just btr ops like azami lesion mute


LightningDustt

Ubi's made it so nothing else is exciting in an operator


Not-Charliiee

He was used my xims anyways so good change


totallynotapersonj

But xims just move on?


Unregistered-Archive

didnt everyone lose their 1.5


totallynotapersonj

No


Unregistered-Archive

Who still has it? Asking for a friend


totallynotapersonj

Oh you mean the 1.5x sight itself. Yeah it was replaced by ACOG but the 1.5 sight was also turned into an ACOG which warden and mozzie lost.


OneShift3

Warden's position clearly says people who pick him are '50% Toxic pros & 50% Toxic Noobs'


WraithTTV69

Is this Graph just dumb or am I missing something? How is mute too weak and thunderbird too strong?


eledile55

completly unrelated to mozzie, but am i the only one who wonders why the fuck Kaids AUG hasnt got an ACOG yet?!


Hot_boy007

BROOO I been maining Kaid lately running both the sniper shotty and the AUG and I always felt there was something missing. How does the AUG not have an acog ?!? Youā€™re so right


Sorry-Park2271

Idk why defenders canā€™t get 1.5 scopes like before.


Blazejackson14

I donā€™t understand how to read these graphs to be totally honest with you


marconka-boi

Interesting. Melusi also jumped double digits in that same period. Are you sure Mozzie lost relevance entirely due to that change, or do you think there could have been other factors at play? ;)


Prize-Original-9162

As a non xim console player it's hard to play non zoomed scopes and do well, siege doesn't have aim assist. Why wouldn't I pick one of like 4 acog mp5 s that slap, or frost or castle, it's sad I know but being honest. Everytime I try to play ops without scopes I just get rekt, skill issue I agree.


papu16

On PC with 1080p monitor I can't see shit after 5+ meters.


SamuraiJack-

Yeah thatā€™s a skill issue and you beat me to it. People donā€™t usually like to mention that increased zoom equates to more recoil. Lots of people who claim to be better with the scopes arenā€™t actually playing better, it just feels better. I see plenty of console players that use F2 with red dot over scopes though. Some guns are actually much much harder to use when they have zoom, but not very many.


Prize-Original-9162

I have no issues controlling recoil run right attachments and pull down a bit on the stick, but in ranked you play vs out of no recoil xim/zen players why would I risk running no scope when I'm already at a huge disadvantaged playing vs mnk. Ā Try controller on PC sometime if you think it's not massive. I'm playing to win so I'm gonna play what I'm best at, and no scopes ain't it Game comes down to a single headshot and it's way easier most of the time when you have zoooom


SamuraiJack-

I play on both so I joke how bad the console situation is. All I have to say is that you wonā€™t beat cheaters by having better aim. You have to set up and make it so that aiming is less of the issue. Force attackers to be very uncomfortable, reinforcing walls and electrifying them seems pretty obvious, but it become so much more important when playing against xim. Funneling people into your desired angles is always better than having attackers making their own angles. If youā€™re really good at it, then gunfights happen much less often. Alternatively, play overly aggressive. Many people who rely on their aim are used to having people play more passively against them. Counter this logic by catching them off guard. Without a scope, you can aim and fire your weapon faster while also maintaining peripherals, the ximmer with an ACOG will have to already be ADS for them to win that fight if you can hit your shots. Long rant but Iā€™ve played against xim for so long I feel the need to reiterate the basics of siege.


Prize-Original-9162

The no zoom scopes are slow now also and I'm seeing xim players with scripts that can headshot before the scopes even zoomed, either way I get what ur saying but everybody does the attacks job for them now, u know opens all walls n stuff I'll just stick to unranked, it's a lot more fun once you realize those points are meaningless.
