sportskeeda.com:

Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege is a comparatively older title that was released to provide highly tactical gameplay. Ubisoft recently introduced the Year 8 Season 1 update and added Brava to the attacker side’s roster.

The developers shifted the operator meta with the release of Brava. The player base had to adapt and create new strategies on the defender side to protect the objective. The gun attachments were also tweaked, resulting in players switching out primary weapon loadouts.

Let us take a look at the best defender operators for Rainbow Six Siege in Year 8 Season 1.

Note: This is not a Ranked list and the choices can be different for every individual.

Rainbow Six Siege offers a large number of options to both attackers and defenders alongside the freedom to choose their spawn points. The defenders have several abilities that can deny the attackers entry near the objective site. It is important that players understand their role in the match and place their unique gadgets accordingly.

Here is a list of the most effective defender operators to use in Commanding Force.

Solis is one of the latest additions to R6 on the defender side. She is an adept counterintelligence operator who can detect traces of attacker electronics.

The SPEC-IO Electro-Sensor is a great gadget that can reveal the exact location of all the enemy gadgets. Players can activate her unique ability to detect attackers even through walls and launch ambush strategies.

Azami is a unique defender who uses a modified tool to seal gaps in the team’s defense. Her gadget is called Kiba Barrier and can be used to create bulletproof surfaces. She uses a set of Kunai knives that stick to surfaces, expands outwards, and then solidify to create an additional cover.
