Rainbow Six Siege is getting a decide and ban section

For these unfamiliar, decide and ban is a section previous to play by which groups take turns selecting their characters, then banning particular person characters from getting used. It provides groups an opportunity to construct a technique previous to the match begin, and lets them attempt to deny benefits to their opponents.

In Rainbow Six Siege’s model, groups will have the ability to decide and ban two Operators per group for the complete match, which implies each of the sport’s arduous breachers, Hibana and Thermite, could be faraway from play.

This has main implications for Siege’s metagame, and groups who depend upon breaching should adapt new techniques to compensate.

Once the primary spherical of picks and bans is over, groups will see every others’ lineups and have a last probability to re-pick one in every of their Operators.

The section will roll out for testing first for Pro League and Custom, then for ranked mode. It’s unclear whether or not it’ll be added to informal.
