Rainbow Six Siege Operator Tier List 2024: best attackers and defenders

Rainbow Six Siege Operator Tier List 2024: best attackers and defenders

The Rainbow Six Siege Tier List splits the operators in five tiers based on their success at Emerald, Diamond, and Champion. The tiers depend on the popularity, win rate, and performance of each character.

  • No pro data. The performance of a character when used by pro players and teams doesn’t influence the tiers as I wanted to create something useful for us ranked players.

  • No personal opinions. The tiers are strictly based on pick rate, win rate, and performance of each operator. Only ranked data.

  • The requisites for each tier never change. The tiers are viewed as clusters of data, and each operator is placed in the one they are closer the most. The goal is offering a neutral comparison that shows how the meta evolves over time.

I believe that there isn’t an ideal tier list for Rainbow Six Siege because the success of an operator depends on the environment (game mode), your rank, the opponents faced, the map considered, your personal preferences and tactics.

However, I hope that my statistical-based approach is a good attempt to provide a reliable list for all the casual and ranked players.
