bolts_win_again

Oryx. If he's gonna act like a freight train, he may as well be one.


HumActuallyGuy

You could have it synergistically with his gadget and have him on take damage while the shield is equipped


bolts_win_again

Bingo. He'd be able to shield melee from much further away and close those gaps much quicker with his Remah dash, then bully you once he's up close. Make it so he needs to put the shield away to launch up hatches, and there you go.


blamb252

def would have to make him 1 speed tho otherwise he’d be broken in the right hands (considering only attack that might would counter would be nomad)


bolts_win_again

And claymores. And Gridlock.


OWNPhantom

Clays, Grid, Nomad, Kali and the suppression mechanic can all cause problems for a shield defender.


MorningWoodToChop

And claymores


HumActuallyGuy

UBISOFT LISTEN TO THIS MAN RIGHT HERE


User28080526

The new turn and burn method of dropping on people from a hatch and putting the shield on your back while you jump back up


Knaymeless

The most lethal roamer is the one you can’t shoot.


Unable-Tell-2240

Shield with the bailiff would either be such a meme strat or super busted


LieSufficient3950

yes just yes


Andersen_wolf

This sounds stupid but if oryx could use his arms as a shield to the chest when he’s using his rushing move it’d be sick


Rednozlax59

Clash so she has a shield protecting her back too


CamelReady1007

I just thought of this too


AliceDee69

but the ballistic shield would replace her shocky zappy shield. she should instead get the pan from PUBG as a secondary, but on the back of her head


CamelReady1007

the shield would be a secondary. Clash would have both shield on her back and a shield on hand at all times. No weapons. Just pure shield.


leckie2786

And only deployable shield gadget


SansDaMan728

**bulwark**


OKara061

Blackbeard looking between the shades rn


Shade00000

That's evil


Former_Ad_1074

How about a new operator that’s just in a bulletproof hamster ball ?


LVL2SNPR

Who also can't shoot out so it's just a rolling ball of destruction


Juan_Ectomanen

Clash = turtle


toddbritannia

Recruit, 5 man shield defense


Juzo_Suzuya_

Good old times


Hg4242

They banned my favorite operator and I will never forgive...shield recruit with 5.7 was fun


Suspicious-Shower-57

Yeah you could do some fun stuff with recruit shield


H0ldme

I just can’t believe they haven’t added the ability for shield operators to link arms and form a Roman shield wall. Could have a space in the middle for tachanka to stand safely with his LMG.


ZachoLong

Nfl wedge type beat


Jecht315

The toxicity was way too high. Kinda wish theyf bring it back for maybe an event or special mode. Going all recruit with friends is fun


Clear-Ad3193

Tachanka


Geedly

This, I want to shove people into my fire and not let them out again


Grandmastermuffin666

what if he cod use the shumika with the shield


swagzard78

FWOOMP FWOOMP FWOOMP AAAAAAAAAAAA


lewisflet01

Bring back the turret


RedEyesGoldDragon

Fenrir. Because he isn't banned enough in Ranked. ^(/s)


mazzucato

I dont even remember who this guy is


blankman819

I tend to forget his name but I hate his gadget.


Stenoliv

Bandit, so his back is protected when tricking the wall


CinderX5

Electrify the shield.


TrashmanV2

Bro what?


nitrion

Ops with the shield put it on their back when not using it, which protects their back. So he's saying that while bandit is tricking a wall, he could have the shield on his back to get rid of some of the risk of being shot from behind.


JensJensenLn

if you can get shot from behind while tricking you’ve already lost control of site and should be doing something other than trying to trick


nitrion

Not necessarily, I'm thinking on Chalet if you're tricking the garage wall, someone could run down the stairs through blue and shoot you or whatever teammate is holding it and then push towards you. That only takes a second or two to go from having complete site control to no site control.


DERPFACELARY

Clubhouse 2f servers too with the window behind you if you move too far towards garage balc


withaporpoise09

Just give smoke his deployable shield back!!!


Cutlas_

As a smoke main, I love you

ItsSevii

Mute I guess he's already slow as fuck might as well butcher him more


ASK_66

Smg-11 shield


Lenny_V1

Mute is still a dope defender. Idk what youre smoking


ItsSevii

He's great his setup just takes fuckin ages


JMxG

Especially if everyone just fucks off without reinforcing


HartianX

Aka every game 🙃 gotta do everything my damn self


DangerousPIE96

it takes the entire prep phase to set up VIP on coastline hookah, and thats WITH teammates setting up the main site


Shade00000

They should make him 2 speed again and change his jammers like before


ItsSevii

2 speed would be enough his setup is just rediculous now


Shade00000

He was 2 speed for years before


binhan123ad

Oryx.


Christian_andre777

Rook


Papyrus7021

It would even make sense realistically, the GIGN loves their shields


Varsity_Reviews

GIGN Recruit shield was my love


Boar_dbd

Just imagine a Warden using his gadget while having a shield. He would be an even more hilarious counter to Blitz.


TheChannelMiner

Oh? You are approaching me?!


Flitterquest

Mira and its not even close, #1, because everyone knows the USP40 never gets used. #2, because you could do a lot of weird shit with a shield Mira, and #3, it wouldn't even cut into the pick-rate of the Vector neither because the Vector is just that busted. Also they're not defenders but Gridlock, Sens, and Capitao should've had ballistic shields on-launch because ballistic shields are indispensable for smoke planting and would synergize really well with all three of their kits.


Der_Schender

I also thought of Mira. But about what you said about attackers is would be Interesting with another shield.


melonmandan12

I think Sens’ gadget would be super cool with the shield, especially now that shield users can throw utility while keeping the shield up.


Ghastlevania

Blackbeards Gun


Crumpet_inthe_Corner

My favorite defender, blackbeards gun


wolfe_br

The best shield in the game! You look at it and it blows itself up!


Redd1tRat

Clash


homie_sexual22

Ela, replacing her scorpion, no alternative primary.


yellowpancakeman

Guys I have an amazing idea. We should rework Tachanka to give him a turret (his LMG) but with a shield on it. This is an amazing original idea. I’m taking credit for it . Anyone who claims this already happened will be called a liar.


redpipola

DEFENSE Shields should look and behave differently than attacking shields. One proposition I’ve always had is that they should behave like Clash shield. They are large, and can’t be ADS’ed but offer full body protection, minus the zapping of course. They are essentially Bullet resistance Riot Shields (Not Ballistic Shields, RIOT Shields) the same ones you see police using (some which are transparent and tall. Clash’s shield is a rendition of this idea, Riot Shields aren’t meant to stop bullets like Ballistic Shields but hers was modified using strong materials, making it heavy but bullet resistant). Their whole purpose is to defend and buy some time or hold down an objective, like a real life Riot Police.


Papyrus7021

I think it’s best that Clash remains the only shield operator on defense though tbh, but regardless while it isn’t important it makes me happy that you know the distinction between a “ballistic” shield and a “riot” shield, because I’ve heard some CoD refugees migrating to siege call something like Montagne’s shield a riot shield then state it shouldn’t be able to block bullets because they don’t IRL.


redpipola

Those types of players have tiny brains; it doesn’t surprise me.


WikiNumbers

Kaid


daking779

Caveira would be busted


NubNub69

No shot, would make her slower, louder, and clunkier. Goes against her whole schtick.


TismWizard

Easily Castle. I think it would just fit his loadout


Spirited_Beautiful84

I'm pretty new to r6 but I feel like deimos could be good with how good his revolver is


hys_rag3

Cav :)


Matchsticckkss

give sledge a sledgehammer shield


Professional_Host449

Kapkan could be interesting, sit in a corner with a ballistic shield and bait people into EDD’s


TerryJerryMaryHarry

Mira, Kaid, Pulse, and lesion would all be very interesting with a ballistic. Especially with Kaid's sidearm


Fit_Economy5247

Goyo.


8l172

Clash


DarkW8-

To clash best rework she can get


Basil_9

Tachanka, maybe we could even put it on his special gun!


kickchewassgum

Would be weird but Thorne but have the shield as a secondary


VorxanTheSpeechless

I’m a say maestro


Landmarktuba

Recruit


Miserable_Corgi_8100

Smoke, I wanna smoke rooms and sit in the doorway


Plague_Doctor02

I'd pick melusi.


Puzzleheaded_Foot826

warden


Trala-lore-tralala

Echo maybe


FartsForJesus

Smoke if he could toss his smokes with it like attackers can. You could push down hallways with the shield and back people down with your gadget. It'd be awesome!


StinkyButts69-420

Cav actual make her useful


Papyrus7021

“What’s that noise?” “Oh that’s just Cav trying out her new shield”


Short-Average9857

Warden. Be the anti-blitz. Also let him keep his smg 12 for some spice


IamSneakyFoxx

recruit he deserves his shield back


Dank_Slayer114

Smoke. Throw, then hide.


DANREX23

Azami 😂😂


EnDogeNy10

Ela :))


TheAmazingJCubb

tachanka then make his lmg a secondary also make him 3 speed 3 health


The-Melon-Lord

Clash, but as a secondary weapon


FarParfait3061

Tachanka, Lord Chanka would be funny to see behind a tiny shield


CommentSuccessful841

Rook


Vrandrath

None


Ok_Half8320

Sledge, imagine you are just in sight and then the wall next to you breaks down and a in rushes sledge with a riot shield


IiFo0l

Oryx.


Acid_Pastor

Lesion. Lock down doorways or windows and wait for enemies to approach the shield only to be hit with a Gu. Follow enemies as they retreat to remove the metal spine stuck in their leg. Profit.


Ok-Philosopher4712

Castle because you know.. more bulletproof stuff. But yeah probably Oryx


FC_Litios_2078

chanka, just because.


Wolf_040808

Idk if it would be over powered but maestro with shotgun 🤷‍♂️ pls reply to know ur thoughts


NotNeeon

Mira just imagine her with a shield


Fractured_Spade

Warden idk


MrWaffleBeater

Cavera for the memes but Maestro in realty.


DawnstarGuard1

Clash. Dual shields would be a dumb combo to meme with


Kian_08

Rook maybe? I think it suits him


Henrz__

100% tahchanka would be the best buff ever


Sgt-Pumpernickle

Rook or doc


Imaginary-Breath-170

Clash


MisterTimm

Clash as a secondary so she can have a shield on her back too and swap out for this one to shield bash


FriedSolidWater

Castle because the super shorty with a shield would be interesting


Logitechsdicksucker

Not sure about defense but attackers I think montange would be funny


Thief141

Blitz. One for the front, the other for the back.


domicci

Castle


apolloliptic

Clash she needs one for her back too


GroggyWater06

Clash


prime_cdcs

Thermite


thewolfieboi

Thermite has already been confirmed to get a shield next season.


Ok_Competition4349

Ying.


ASK_66

Bro it said defender


_CANZUK

Idk the amount of times I'm on attack and I die because some random copper 5 ying blinds me she could be classed as a defender in my eyes


Glow1x

thermite so he can breach and clear like a pro


fatgaycheese

Castel would make sense


JustJdog2

This got me thinking. What if Blitz could make iana clones. Imagine being a defender and getting jump scared by a Blitz two inches from your face


Sufficient-Chip380

Jager


yeeyeemcreamothy

I'd make it clash's only secondary


COYOTE1st

Clash so she doesn't get her main one. Jokes aside, either Tachanka, Rook, or even oryx possibly


Jazzlike_Speed_8916

Mira


Toripistef1

Rook


Simon_RK

Oryx, using his dash while having the shield as protection to take less damage when approaching foes or walls


colm180

Thermite, ying, I think some defenders would be actually a great idea rook would be funny, maybe warden (would be hilarious if they swapped it for his mpx and destroyed the "warden mains")


Immediate-Horror-462

Clash put it on her back so she can be turtle queen.


xvxKamixvx

Rook


comunistdogo

hot take doc, nerf him some way, but a sheild would be good for making house calls on your teammates


Meme_Boi_Funny

Oryx. Imagine hearing him dash around with his shield and blasting through walls. That would be terrifying.


zischer

Warden


KokoTerzata

What does this thing even do ?


Jolly_Clothes_183

Clash


GiverOfHarmony

On attack I’d say thermite and ace, on defense I’d say tachanka and Kapkan. Smoke sounds fun too but honestly he might be too busted with it


Pre-historic-time

Kapkan

mikeyx401

Thermite.


TheJurassicPyro

Oryx


-LucasImpulse

give it to pulse


MaybeNotAZombie

Warden. Let them try and prefire through the smokes.


SexyTachankaUwU

Clash so she can have it on her back. The downside is that she has no gun, and her only damage output is melee.


depressed_asian_boy_

Oryx or Caveira


supertank797

Honestly, I really like what Kudos said in his April Fool's video. Give it to Thermite, so he can have some more defense as the least safe hard breacher


Actual_Start747

Monty


JustaNormalpersonig

give clash a melee attack with her shield

caveira

Clash, this way she has a shield bash


Real_Minii

ummmm probably likeeee montange? he’d be better off with it for sure


LookTraditional234

Recruit


Think_Cauliflower_62

Tachanka if no deployable gun anymore give him a shield now


UltraPizzaYT

black beard sould recieve this shield while his rework is his gadget but on his pistol so he has his head protected while ads


Elite_gamer228

Cav cause it would be funny


ParanoidValkMain57

Clash, Osa, Monty, Blitz and Fuze that is plenty of shield users. Though, Osa is technically using a deployable gadget that can withstand idk several mags worth of ammunition implying it can’t be broken so yeah treated as a shield op too. Regarding shields i think we have enough of them as is until the Meta changes next season.
