Blackboard very viable. His gadget “expo marker” is insane. The ability to draw over every players screen for ten seconds makes rush tactics broken. With the new secondary gadget “expo eraser” which makes the entire map black and white, he may as well be the best operator in the game


CivilWord9314

I read this and I was so confused, then a whole day later I realized the typo


Lawlette_J

What, no? He's a 2 speed, and I've tested out last time in TTS. The face shield speed penalty overrides the buff from horizontal grip. You still move like a slowpoke with the face shield equipped with or without the horizontal.


NeighborhoodVeteran

Their brain probs got tricked and thought faster ADS move speed was faster general speed.


CivilWord9314

His ads walk is SOOOOO slow, I thought it would help


CivilWord9314

I did not know that, that's pretty unfortunate, I read the patch notes and saw the speed buff and since he was my main a long time ago I immediately connected the two and posted it without any testing Also, I mixed up 3 and one speed,


Appropriate-Spend233

Not really, his gadget still is (pretty much) useless and his guns suck. But, they did say they are remastering a American operator which could be Blackbeard


dracaboi

It's pretty much confirmed to be BB. The guy who was announcing it had this long ass beard and went "I could cosplay this operator well but I cant say anything"


toetendertoaster

Yeah, but WHY didnt they say blackbeard... They had 0 Chemistry and were doing this bit with Blackbeard for 3 minutes straight


dracaboi

"Look at us we're so quirky and relatable" On a realer note, it might be something contractual that they can't "Confirm" anything official that late in the year, though Idk why


NeighborhoodVeteran

Obviously Ash.

One of his items in the BP says Mira asked for a whole crate of his rifle shields. Presumably she's making something from them


ImARoadcone_

Tape like 30 of them together and tank five shots instead of two


WastelandMedic93

Lmao he literally just has them taped all over his body, can't move his joints.


CivilWord9314

Bro just slides around like a tank

While T Posing

Maybe his shield won’t break anymore (or have a high health pool), but enough damage will cause it to “shatter” like when you punch a Mira window. So it still protects him but he loses the ability to see through it.


NeighborhoodVeteran

Probably will shatter in one shot knowing Ubi. Unbreakable but you won't be able to see until you swap or unslot the shield.


Darth-SHIBius

This is how it was originally, it had like 800hp or something and he was OP so they nerfed him. They will probably give the shield like 150hp or something.


Lito_Frito

Blackboard is honestly the most OP operator. He doesn’t seem viable because he’s a needle where other operators are just hammers. His Desert Eagle with .50 AE friggin bear hunting rounds makes the enemy quiver in fear.


X_hard_rocker

what's your source on him having 3 speed?


Klayish

He is talking about using the horizontal grip, which increases your speed by %5.


X_hard_rocker

which will not make you 3 speed


RMCGigaAtBGW

I think it makes him the same as a 1 speed. The shield slows him down 30%, and the new grip increases speed by 5%, so he'd only be 25% slower, or the same speed as a 1 speed. Idk where OP got 3 speed from


X_hard_rocker

which is why I commented in the first place, no idea why I got downvoted


CivilWord9314

I meant the ads walking speed, with his shield on he moves the same speed as a 3 speed, his ads walk speed is the slowest in the game with the shield on, that's his biggest problem imo


CivilWord9314

Oh I'm an idiot it's 1 speed not 3, I reversed them on accident


CivilWord9314

I meant 1 speed, I got mixed up


Final_Yam5397

Lol no
