The next season of Rainbow Six Siege will begin soon and will bring with it two brand new Operators into the game, Maverick and Clash.
Maverick is a three speed, one armor Attacking Operator who carries with him a blowtorch. This blowtorch can be used to cut holes into reinforced walls. This means that you can now create murder holes in reinforced walls that give teammates like Blackbeard or Glaz a way to shoot into objectives. Other ways to utilize his ability include creating a small hole so a Twitch drone could sneak through it, or holes allowing you to destroy Mute jammers or Bandit batteries, clearing the way for Hibana or Thermite to blow the wall. You can create a hole large enough to fit through, but it would take almost all of your fuel tanks to do so. Maverick's blowtorch can also be used to melt wooden barricades, shields, Castle barricades, floor hatches and can destroy Maestro's Evil Eye cameras.
The second new Operator is Clash. Clash is a three armor, one speed Defender and will be the first defending Operator in the game to carry a shield. The shield is completely bullet proof and covers her entire body. The shield is also equipped with a taser which can slow and damage enemies. Unlike other shield Operators however, Clash cannot melee people with the Shield. Clash is also a perfect way to cover up any holes that Maverick may create with his blowtorch.
Maverick is huge as this is going to completely change the way the entire game is played as all established play styles and metas are going to be completely thrown out the window once he launches.
