Yeah I mainly just play quick match when I play siege and when I use lion with a few friends and we coordinate drones and pushes it is very useful, especially if my friend is playing jackal
@@joshuaiscool5097 that just wastes a potential game shifter imo. Like, if youve been playing enough youd check every single runout or spawnpeek then just save your lion scans for late game
not only would you save a lion scan that could potentially change the outcome of the game later on in the round, you also get a free kill when prepared.
In the case you can't stay still, it'll probably be due to the enemy knowing your location. Not always, but most of the time. We never had any issues with Lion in Ranked. Wasn't as bad as what people were saying at the time. It's a little bit worse now I find, with the speed of the activation now.
@@SirBigWater yeah I agree there, honestly I think cav is more busted than lion. Sure she has to have a downed enemy, but she doesn't even need to down anyone herself, she can just team with a frost. And it's not even tied to movement like lions gadget is. There's no counter to cavs wall hacks. I think it should be taken down to just pings, just like they did to lion
@@todd5purlock497 But the thing about that is that Cav's ability is an example of Risk vs Reward. Lion can stand outside and press a button for his ability
I personally always hated Jackel more. Remember when his scans lasted for basically the entire round? And when he’s out of scans he still has the passive ability to see footsteps and how recent they are.
At least lion didn't have the easiest most broken gun in the game, jackel is by far worst, but still i enjoyed siege back then than now, the game is just dog shit now
WALRIDER - I like the game now. I feel like they’re trying to move the operators away from the “press button = influence” thing that happened with lion and other ops. Look at Wamai. He’s Jäger but African and requires more skill.
It’s prob just nostalgia but the rush meta was sort of fun to play when you compare it to today’s utility dump. The Lion, Ying, Jackal, Doka, Blitz lineup was aids but funny.
@@FJTCZ No that one is bad as well. But 1. You could ban her (if Oobi didn't do that) 2. Lion was meant to be like this and the Clash exploits weren't.

Both Lion and Finka seemed WAY out of place, noone talks about Finka because she's almost useless, but the ability to heal EVERYONE at a distance with the touch of a button, while having passives like less recoil, ability to tank flashes, walking faster through wire, etc (again, to EVERYONE, INSTANTLY and without risk, skill or counter). seemed so out of place they looked like their design was outsourced, made by people who had no idea what Siege was.
@@crazytigerspy9420 i play finka sometimes, when i want a bit more of an impact for my team at large (i typically play Kali, though i played finka more than glaz) or i know the map doesn't favor long range weapons. finka is one i either surge when i hear gunfire starting up, if i see a downed teammate, or if i am about to enter a doorway/window on/near objective. i also do it if someone asks for it. her ability is a very hit-or-miss one, but yea its not one that has much finesse to it. honestly a large part of why i pick finka is because i like the spear 308. its not a fantastic weapon, but it just feels right to me. one thing i to this day don't understand is i had a teammate who i used adrenaline surge on as they got downed (i pressed the button before they went down, but the delay was just enough) complained that they got revived by the surge because they had no health. this person was the only one attacking from the area they were at, so nobody would have gotten there before they were executed anyway.
His gadget didn't counter shit. The radius of the jammer was so small you were essentially standing still anyways. If a nade landed on one edge, you'd still die if you moved as far away as possible while staying in the jammer range.
@@deshthewraithLoL As far as i remember Mute's jammer range was increased WAY before lion's release, but i could be wrong, i remember it being smaller, but the thing is that it did counter it, i used it a lot so the memories are kinda blurry when it got the range increase.But the only thing i remember is that lion was only busted in pro-plays, but in regular ranked it wasn't even useful at all, even in plat. Maybe in diamond, but i dunno about that. Sidenote: Mute jammer range was increased in 2016, june 21 Lion came in at March 6, 2018 so yeah, the mute jammer range was surely increased. Also if you worried about nades just still stating it "Jager had a 100+ pick rate since the start of r6 and back then took out 3 grenades"
I remember playing in that time. And boy literally every team played Lion, Ash, Blitz, Jackal, Ying or Doki. And so the Rush meta was born in that time. If I remember when I played a certain match and a round lasted less than a minute. Thank God that is no longer the case.
sad pug yeah but you actually had a chance to fight back before. The Chimera rush meta was broken and literally unfair for defenders and Lion was the #1 reason for it
Yeah, I played during that time as well, was actually pretty high elo so I got the blunt of Lion. I wouldn't call it a Rush meta, as Rushing really wasn't a meta and has always been in the game. I believe back then, it was simply called "The AIDs Meta."
im still trying to get a clip of getting a kill right after scanning the map so i can insert ZA WARUDO (Dio not Jotaro, I hate Jotaro's version. it sounds like fruit punch being bass boosted)
I hate Blackbeard let’s just say I hear a proximity alarm and I go over there and I see Blackbeard aim for the head and die because he has a stupid fucking plastic shield
It got worse! To the point where Ubisoft is releasing Super Twitch in Shadow Legacy and giving 1/3rd of the cast Hard Breaching tools to try and combat it!
@@ParagonFury well to be fair attackers needed it Game is defender sided much now Defenders have tons of utilities. Attackers dont have enough to break all of it
@@ParagonFury yeah, with the defending side always getting more wins than attacking side as per statistics, attackers needed buffs to scale that 1 mile high wall known as deployed defender gadgets.
@@toelighters9416 well it heavily depends on what rank and trust factor you have. You'll find a lot more cheaters in the lower ranks than in the higher ranks. And depending on your trust factor, you can find lots of cheaters. :)
I mean, tbf, it makes a little bit more sense in a game like valorant bc your ult is an ability you have to build over time with skill-based factors like kills and plants. Obviously an ult can still be broken tho. In siege your abilities are free and in the case of lion he got 3 per round EVERY round.
Well definitely not now. No acog for it and I'm not sure how it used to be, but the recoil on it now is one of the strongest recoil patterns in the entire game
as a player who came into the game only a few days after lion was released, i can say for 100% that it was a truly different game during the reign of lion. seeing the game only during the lion phase i didn’t see the problem but after the nerf i realized that there were completely different options to play, both attacking and defending, there were dozens of new play styles that were simply overshadowed before the nerf.
I quit Siege during the Lion rain. Been playing since the beta, and wasn't enjoying the game anymore, bugs .etc, then lion just tipped me over the edge.
Balance idea: the drone only works on one player at a time. Once that player is hit, all the other players are alerted of it. Now, instead of the defending team becoming sitting ducks to invisible lions, one of them becomes the ultimate bait whilst the rest of their team prepares to rip any incoming attacker's spine out their ass and beat the rest of them to death with it. This time, it would actually require skill. You'd still get wallhacks and can capitalize on a cheap wall kill. But at the same time, an enemy player can take the bullet and move, letting themselves get skanned allowing the rest of the team to continue playing. It's risk and reward. Either you get a kill with no chance of getting shot, or are brutally murdered whilst chasing your prey.
That's similar to how Dallas works in Rogue Company. I've definitely had games where the revealed defender has an ally lying in wait to light our team up
ahhh operation chimera i can still remember my phone ringing, the vibration sound, my vision is clear as turning off dark mode and get track hunted by a canine.
Played exclusively ranked during those days and I don't remember ever having any trouble dealing with Lion. People struggle with different things though.
What rank were u because I remember when lion came I was silver at the time most people didn’t know how to play him but if I was plat 1 like I am now at chrimera I would struggle against lion
When people say they miss old siege, they're mostly talking about Y1-Y2. This, I remember, was just oppressive as shit and was not fun to play at all. When people say that though, you need to take into account all the factors, Lion was really the start of people saying that because like KIXSTAR said in that one clip, he was the beginning of the Overwatch mentality of "Push a button, turn the tide of the round."
The nostalgia. I had so much fun being lion scanned, jackal scanned, called by dokkeabi, a candela being thrown, and a blitz running torwards me in a 1v5.
One thing I always thought about was that the Italian operators were released soon after Lion and Finka and Ubisoft said they were behind on releasing operators due to the outbreak game mode taking such a long time. The Italian ops seemed like they were made with the intention of counterplay against Lion's broken ability but by the time they were out it was too late and competitive siege was the Lion show.
I love how the best way to counter lion is to move when a teammate is standing still by your side the guy is gonna wallbang you, and your teammate wallbang him
This video is PTSD for many many players... I still have clips where we ran Ying, Lion, Blitz, Dokkaebi and Jackal when we were literally too tired and still managed to win 5/6 ranked matches!

@@taiyo5619 I don't really know, whenever that release a new "broken" operator. They seem to buff everyone else. Like with next season they are adding a new hard breaching gadget to underplayed/limited use operators.
The worst thing was that it took them like 6 months to fix him. Meanwhile there were Pro League/Challenger League tournaments going. ENCE was relegated because of this meta (having Kantoraketti at his absolute prime)
@@drakeconsumerofsoulsandche4303 You probably use your scan at the beginning of the round Lion is an Intel operator, use your drones before you use your scan and organize your push
agreed, thank god i seen this before the coppers got to you 1st. Defense has become op altogether and attack needs something to really counter that. Zero tho he might be attacks saving grace. Also we need an attacker sided map or just get rid of some reworks to make it balanced bcuz most reworked maps have become defender sided. They don't make attackers and defender like they used to, give us another Sledge, Ash, IQ, Fuze, Lion, Smoke, Castle, Rook. Not Exactly like them but close enough, similar to ops that copy Thermite like Hibana and Ace.
In my 4 years of playing this game competitively Zironics statement that “Jackal and Doki were stronger back then” is probably the dumbest statement I think I have ever heard within the Siege community but I respect his opinion.
2017 was imo the greatest year of Siege since its release and I don't see it changing ever. Everyone was crazy for the game in 2017, loads of streamers were streaming, loads of tournaments to participate. Everyone was so passionate about the game, grinding non stop and then 2018 came... That was the beginning of the end for Siege.

The nostalgia. I had so much fun being lion scanned, jackal scanned, called by dokkeabi, a candela being thrown, and a blitz running torwards me in a 1v5.
I did actually play lion for a whole week, I stopped and went back to playing the operators I usually play.
Me every season in a nutshell
You won't know the horrors of Lion, Ying, Finka, Blitz and Ash in ranked...
Seige players: this shits so broken
For honor community: haha you have no idea , ever played against a stun tap spamming raider
haha nice
Nice
One thing I always thought about was that the Italian operators were released soon after Lion and Finka and Ubisoft said they were behind on releasing operators due to the outbreak game mode taking such a long time. The Italian ops seemed like they were made with the intention of counterplay against Lion's broken ability but by the time they were out it was too late and competitive siege was the Lion show.
This kinda gives me overwatch flashbacks to brig omaglul.
This video isnt a video. Its a story. One of if not THE greatest video theyve ever made
Kixstar looks like the middle school tomboy
I love how the best way to counter lion is to move when a teammate is standing still by your side
the guy is gonna wallbang you, and your teammate wallbang him
"How a brain-dead" reminds me of jäger players. No idea why
Ash jager mains you mean
This video is PTSD for many many players... I still have clips where we ran Ying, Lion, Blitz, Dokkaebi and Jackal when we were literally too tired and still managed to win 5/6 ranked matches!
Every single hero shooter ever:
Let's start good and then continue adding over the top broken , game destroying characters until we completely kill the game.
Every single hero shooter ever.
Felt it with Overwatch, can feel it coming for r6
@@taiyo5619 I don't really know, whenever that release a new "broken" operator. They seem to buff everyone else. Like with next season they are adding a new hard breaching gadget to underplayed/limited use operators.
As a noob who just started at the beginning of the year,i had heard legends of broken lion...but i didnt know how powerful he truly was
Chimera was so fun solely just because of the new mode that they had put in.
Yeah i remember that event i had so much fun on that mode
@@sintervinter7233 Probably one of the best modes they've made honestly. The last level was so hard even on the lower difficulties.
Always remember that Vigil can’t be seen be drones, including Lions :)
Big brother,
Coming in for over watch.
The worst thing was that it took them like 6 months to fix him. Meanwhile there were Pro League/Challenger League tournaments going. ENCE was relegated because of this meta (having Kantoraketti at his absolute prime)
Round starts : "Enemy drone dropping for scan"
Yeah, that’s how NOT to use Lion xD
During prep phase :)
How a character in a Ubisoft game broked the balance.
For Honor: Someone said my name?
just a little reminder to everyone, Vigil counters Lion scan, Gemini Replicator and few other intel gathering gadgets.
Yeah now he counters lion. But back in the vigil didn't counter lion
Me and the boys in operation chimera: *uses every form of traps and deceit to survive as defenders*
CS:GO develepors: *”AMATEURS”*
Pre-nerf Lion walks into a bar...
Z1ronic: Intel is everything. Also Z1ronic: Always has been.
Waiiiit you guys actually did it again I’ve 100% seen a video exactly like this before
Make it we’re he has to be in the whole animation for the EEONE-D to scan
Why? Hes garbage RN
This why I don't like this channel, they exaggerate and don't give you the full story
Lion was reworked last year
He's fine
@@drakeconsumerofsoulsandche4303
You probably use your scan at the beginning of the round
Lion is an Intel operator, use your drones before you use your scan and organize your push
@@bandarsalh1338 actually I'm usually solo Q, so im often taking thatcher or thermite
@@drakeconsumerofsoulsandche4303
I often play alone and I'm doing fine with him, he's my most played op
excellent video, exactly describes the entire siege community when lion got released, what an absolute menace he was.
He was everyone kept claiming hes not hard to counter stand still but when your being pushed you can't no matter how you look at it
They should bring this his old ability back so defense won’t be so broke anymore
agreed, thank god i seen this before the coppers got to you 1st. Defense has become op altogether and attack needs something to really counter that. Zero tho he might be attacks saving grace. Also we need an attacker sided map or just get rid of some reworks to make it balanced bcuz most reworked maps have become defender sided. They don't make attackers and defender like they used to, give us another Sledge, Ash, IQ, Fuze, Lion, Smoke, Castle, Rook. Not Exactly like them but close enough, similar to ops that copy Thermite like Hibana and Ace.
8:16 is this guy really playing in his Kitchen? 😂
People: You can't just see people through wall! that's not fair :(
Me, a rare lion main: haha drones go brrrrrrrrrrrrr
bless be the lions pride, still playing lion til now too
I‘m getting Vietnam Flashbacks when I see the Jackal, Blitz, Doki, Ying and Lion combo
Well he's been nerfed to the ground since then, so we aight.
Newly released agents are way too strong!
Me, a league player: "first time?"
As a lion main I approve of this message
Lol I love how he has a book called "Walking Lions" on his bookshelf
The only time we’re people wanted to play attacking
In my 4 years of playing this game competitively Zironics statement that “Jackal and Doki were stronger back then” is probably the dumbest statement I think I have ever heard within the Siege community but I respect his opinion.
He always says dumb shit like that lmao
I love the fact that every few months someone milks the Lion situation. Good views tho.
2017 was imo the greatest year of Siege since its release and I don't see it changing ever. Everyone was crazy for the game in 2017, loads of streamers were streaming, loads of tournaments to participate. Everyone was so passionate about the game, grinding non stop and then 2018 came... That was the beginning of the end for Siege.
All of PL then: haha Lion go brrrr
*new score esports video comes out and the olofboost isn't in there*
Literally everyone: what is this place
Why did you remind me of these days
Lions gadget needs a buff now
Operation HEalth is a sree mons PERiod of time in Ordar to FIXing AND Repairing ze game
Why did ubisoft not make lion can only spot people with drone only if they run?
Mate we’re in Y5, why upload this now?
Internet explorer vibes
You must've been that one person that questions about a history documentary releasing in the present time .
Did you also complain when they released the video about Brigitte?
It is history. It is good for everyone to know about this so it never happens again.
Still remembered when lion first came out he had 100% pick rate on pro league.
Me too because I just watched this video
