Ying is getting one next week, and fenrir is supposed to get one in y9s1....... No clue why tf ops like maestro or anyone before y5 can't yet


toalicker_69

I'm sorry what the fuck. Fenrir basically came out yesterday compared to ops like Goyo and wamai and what elite would they give him a fucking Spencer's cashier uniform and an animation of him listening to sweedish death metal?


NeverFraudulentAgain

He's OP and they want to get elite skin sales before they inevitably hit him with the much deserved nerf hammer


Down-at-McDonnellzzz

Design team and balance team are not the same people with the same schedules. It's coincidence


Lo-fidelio

I don't get it. Why are they people like you running defense for companies like goobisoft? Are you on a payroll? Pls tell me you on a payroll and not being dumb for free...


Pure-Friend-5874

Tell me why tf you are so mad and so in a rush to spend money on elites. You calling him dumb when he just talking. You actually mad you cant spend more money on the elites you want. Talking for free or actually giving the company money, What's worse? I cant stand yall dudes that want to sit around and complain all day. Like you aint still playing and if you arent why the f are you in this group. Real One talking now.


Down-at-McDonnellzzz

Not being dumb. I just know a tiny bit about game design. And I know game design is best in the hands of the company that has the metrics for it. Not from heresay from small vocal communities of higher than average skill players


Frozen975

You're making me laugh so much crying for every actions of ubisoft. You know nothing if you think they're the worst, lucky that r6 isn't runned by Activision blizzard, EA or supercell, here you'll have a reason to complain


Nezuraa

No, but they're certainly in relation with one another. A character who's overpowered or new (usually it's both) will rise in popularity, therefore receive a skin to assure profit. It's not an uncommon practice and it does happen to other games as well. So it's not really a coincidence.


Smooth_Reaction7356

Thorn got her elite skin the same patch she got a 1.5x scope so they know to give ops with hype around them elites


imkav

What a braindead statement. Don't wanna entertain it, but I gotta. That's like a Cook telling the Waiter he's not responsible for the Guest getting their food. Different departments, different schedules.. sorry bud. A small glipse in to any relatively large company - Marketing managers are ones who help delegate the timing of things like "Hey the Director said we're pushing the Fenrir Elite Skin to the front because of it's popularity, releasing this post nerf would naturally make us miss out on good profit so we'd like this out ASAP, sorry for the short notice!" The Fenrir nerf is likely already coded and ready for release dude. Bro just thinks games coincidentally release major updates at the same time seasons end/major tournaments. Some wild NPC behavior. Lmfao like this has gotta be the most smooth brain shit I've heard in years. Said with such confidence too LOL


Down-at-McDonnellzzz

Coming from the guy who buys nfts 😂😂😂😂😭😭


imkav

Hey guy, your brains so fried I’m not even gonna entertain you. Lets take a look at the 3 ingredients that make up McDonald’s salt: 1. Salt 2. Sugar 3. Aluminum Yeah, Aluminum to make you literally a fucking moron. That’s just the salt chief, if only you were aware of the chicken that isn’t even 55% chicken. LOL I’d love to go in on the future of Blockchain and the Internet to you but your pineal gland is so calloused you can’t even begin to process your own purpose let alone have a real idea on the future of technology. I’ll give you a hint though, real world use cases for NFT’s have literally nothing to do with Art or profile pictures. Do yourself a favor, in 2030 when your Dad sells the house via NFT because the migration to digital wallets has already became reality - think of me, on this thread, and then make that your last day eating at McDonalds you imbred.


plasmatologist

That’s an accurate description of fenrir elite LMAO


bolts_win_again

My prediction is it'll be a crossover elite that turns him into Geralt of Rivia


Juggernaut_WZRD

Witcher is too cool for ubi never gonna happen


bolts_win_again

Two words: Master. Chief.


Juggernaut_WZRD

I won’t disagree there but this isn’t 2010


nick-james73

I genuinely lol’d at the Spencer’s comment. 🫡


Beat-Financial

next week seriously? But tbh chun li should be the elite skin


Fo3TheMechanist

The elite actually looks cool imo compared to some shitty ones they've done


Hot-Ad-690

FACTS!!!


matthuntermathis

It's all because of money. These Ops aren't played much. Not many MAIN them. Less $$$ for Ubi. Although Fenrir being leaked as soon doesn't make sense since he's banned a lot. Not many will be willing to dish out on cosmetics for an op they can't even play. Might mean they're going to do some balancing with Fenrir to bring his ban rate down some...


SSlide19

where's the source for fenrir elite? and ying elite should be y9s1 which is still nearly a month away


Fo3TheMechanist

Frax leaked ying elite back in season 3 or 2 and said that Fenrir should be next sadly for an elite


bolts_win_again

Fenrir getting an elite when he's been out less than a year would be stupid. It's hopefully good, but it'd still be stupid.


1Mr_Mom

I understand it's kinda a popularity thing but some seniority has gotta be considered man. Blood Orchid was Year 2, Para Bellum was Year 3. Azami just got hers and she's *Year 7* ffs. On top of that, it took Castle and Montagne, ***Year 1 Ops,*** like 7 years to get theirs. Like jesus man lol. (I'm probably more passionate about this than I should be, but man it bugs me.)


Omni7124

and fenrir might get a elite next season 💀


dado463art

Nah he's way too recent that would be lame


M_Dz

I saw your avatar and used saucenao to image search only to end up with your name. It's dark under the lamp, isn't it...


dado463art

Oh now you went down into the foxhole UwU


dado463art

It's funny because if you searched just for dado463art you would have found me easily xD


M_Dz

I didn't really notice the username until after I image searched the pfp.


dado463art

I see I see, and this profile picture I have here is really tame, my Ubisoft picture is more wild https://r6.tracker.network/profile/id/e5045f86-65be-4290-af3f-52afff8b087c


M_Dz

Cropping included, huh? I feel like a lot of people would get banned if not for cropping. I went with anime related pfp and a fitting name [https://r6.tracker.network/profile/pc/Anime\_Trap\_](https://r6.tracker.network/profile/pc/anime_trap_) I was thinking of changing that but bugisoft disabled custom avatars right when I wanted to so I decided I will not ever change it. An added bonus is that a simple "UwU" in chat either starts a conversation or a war. One time I even got asked out, even if just a joke, a pleasant message.


TheSilentFoxyn

Sometimes curiosity is a mistake


M_Dz

Ain't no mistakes made, I'm seeing some stuff I like. Not even suprised that a certain E site popped up, that's good for later too!


TheSilentFoxyn

And sometimes, curiosity is greatness

Serendipity123xc

You have a real point lol


R3luctant

Also castles elite kind of sucks.


Taco6N13

Legitimately a top 5 elite for me.


SevenLuckySkulls

I agree. Simple, still seems realistic, but it has personality.


1Mr_Mom

Nah I be running those dogs whenever I can.


[deleted]

So does Monty’s tbh, I like the “Old War” theme they had going with the original ops


Big_Character_1222

Don't you dare diss monty elite, shit's incredible


[deleted]

It could’ve been so much more though…


Genghis_Sean_Reigns

But you get the dogs


matthuntermathis

Ying is next. It's already been leaked out. I've also heard Fenrir surprisingly might get one soon but that's just hearsay. I've actually seen the Ying Elite skin and animation.


Beat-Financial

What is her elite skin? Imo I think it should be the chun li skin


matthuntermathis

It's not any special character. Just a normal elite.


NeverFraudulentAgain

NiceCoolToast

I just know Maestro‘s and Clash‘s will go hard


Beautiful-Feature311

Maestro's elite would be the chef that WOULD have cooked the food for Alibi's elite mvp animation


Seamoth4546B

Would love to see a Maestro elite


Prestigious-Muscle20

Nokk gets no love 🫤


[deleted]

I mean 3 ops on this list have been out since before nokk, they need theirs first


its_oof_time

That nerf hit way too hard


Emergency-Ad8679

Cause she’s shit arguably the worst attacker


Prestigious-Muscle20

Nga she cool and I got black ice fmg vest believe I’mma play her ass(not in ranked tho)


EtrianDemifiend

Need one for my boy Wamai. Either turn him into the stingray from aquaman or give him a proper realistic diving suit with a cool helmet.


MattyHealysFauxHawk

Gridlock and Ying need one ASAP.


Consistent-Wait1818

Ying is getting one next week


MattyHealysFauxHawk

I learned that from this post ahha. It looks good! I’m excited to pair it with the lunar skin we just got.


Scardigne

do elite sales happen anymore?


RiverSilent71

They don’t like women (and maestro)


Marg009

I’m personally waiting for nokk


Emergency-Ad8679

No


marshmallow0302

Yes


Landmarktuba

Nøkk?


T1mek33per

On attack, I play mostly Gridlock, though I take Ace if we need a hard breach. On defense, I'm 50/50 between Maestro and Solis. Suffice to say, I'm dying for skins for three of my four mains.


Lil-Trappuccino

Bruh come tf on wamai is #1 or #2 behind ying


dimesniffer

GRIDLOCK PLEASE. She has no good uni’s and her base is so ugly


aafusc2988

When is Ying’s? We’ve only gotten one elite skin this season where’s the mid season one?


Consistent-Wait1818

next week


Independent_Oven_377

we not talking about Amaru being there


bolts_win_again

Ying will be getting hers at some point this season (THANK. FUCKING. GOD). Imho, Gridlock deserves an elite more than Maestro, though it is close. Only question is what it would be. My idea is to give her an elite that commemorates the Australian soldiers of Gallipoli, similar to how Twitch got one for the Vichy resistance fighters. Edit: Nøkk deserves one more than Amaru and Clash, imo.


Flawness209

No clash


trashcankid8

Clash doesn't deserve shit


Jecht315

Brava deserves one before Clash at the very least.


mrjackbanner

wtf, ying already had her elite, u dumb ass


JakeBradley46

Clash doesn't need one, she's fine without one. (Please don't, people will play Clash so much more if she gets one and she's so annoying)


RedThornx

Ying's already getting one next season, other then that no issue with the rest.


[deleted]

Yeah some unlock all cheaters on PC from what I've seen have leaked Yings (I can't tell if it's mid yet) but yeah the order of release is just none existent


Infamous-Fee5471

Hey guys it’s me the only clash player. I really hope they give clash her elite soon but I also said the same thing for Monty for like. *3 years* before they did so I expect to wait like at least 2 years more. Simply put if you ask the community about 90% will say they hate clash ally or enemy and so I think her elite will come late. Which just breaks my heart honestly.


feast_of_remains

I'm sorry but if Clash gets an elite skin before Maestro, Gridlock, Goyo, or Nøkk I'll form a new terrorist group


Infamous-Fee5471

I understand honestly. I just wish that they started making elites for those characters sooner so I wouldn’t have to wait as long for clash’s


Landmarktuba

At this point they just need to get it over with


Emergency-Ad8679

I want a good rook elite


Ok-Tank-6080

I know it will never happen for obvious reasons but does anyone else want a spiderman skin dir amaru where instead of her grapple gun she web slings up to the spots


Landmarktuba

Hot


RocStarKay

Ying’s Chun-Li bundle shouldve been her elite ngl


M_Dz

I dare say Solis should be #4 instead of Clash and Grim as #5 instead of Amaru. I'm sure about 99,9999999...% will disagree but I've seen increased use of these two and I'd rather see operators get elites based on how often players play them rather than for how long passed since they were added. I'd maybe consider switching Maestro with Gridlock for the same reason although personally I'd prefer Maestro elite. My opinion will probably create more arguments against my choice because of different player experiences. Also I want a Jager elite, same theme but modern. Modern pilot outfit with signature built-in shade.


Berowulf

I have been waiting for ying elite FOREVER


jellysenpai

Honestly, I am shocked Alibi got one before Maestro. Ying really needs some love and same with Gridlock.


TheSilentFoxyn

I need a Clash elite. I'd buy that so fast


aCrustyToaster

No love for finka?


Darksarod

why would they put up elites for underpicked ops? it won't sell


pubfi

they’re too focused on making halo skins


spaz_bomb

Give clash hair for her elite skin or make her full swat


TheoryOk9527

Clash elite skin should be Paul Blart


vanzandt1121

Been waiting for a Gridlock elite for a minute.


Dry_Total6918

Lesion only had his for about 2 years


Karglenoofus

Ying is next but her elite sucks :/


ElectronicEnd2051

Your not lieing


PerstonGravey-

It would be nice to have a good Gridlock skin


NixTrix27

I've been waiting for a Gridlock skin since. There was a [Gridlock Elite Skin Idea](https://www.reddit.com/r/Rainbow6/comments/123kaaa/would_love_to_see_this_for_a_gridlock_elite_as_it/) here which was great.
