That's what I call a successful fuzing 😊😂 Also, it would be neat if you could provide a source and/or credit the artist, please!

Pros and cons of this year's cgi cinematic

Cons:

Same characters reused for the fifth time

Missed opportunity to put valkyrie , frost, maestro, kapkan, echo and or azami when it would've made sense*

Sam Fisher despite being like 70 years old and can choke out oryx who is several weight classes above him in seconds, struggles against demos.

No rook face reveal.

Only 4 ops in a squad.

Relatively short compared to previous ones.

Pros:

We see Sam in action

Rook is now in a cgi cinematic with a speaking role.

Armor is actually usefull and doesn't follow the trope of just being cardboard.

This year's CGI actually surpassed my expectations. It furthered the current plot, didn't massively retcon previous lore of any of our characters (*side eyes the "Sisters in Arms" one, god how I detest what that one did to the Bosaks' lore), and the action was sweet!

As for the lack of much character variety... yeah, nothing new here, I stopped expecting that a long time ago. But hey, Rook has some protagonism! I'd say that's already a vast improvement from the usual, and Zero was usually relegated to a side character while Harry was still alive and here he was a main action figure!

Also the Rook face reveal, we already got that one with his elite years ago 🤷 And he has a headgear showing his whole face and head in the battlepass, so you can't really say we don't know how he looks like 😂

I once saw a post commenting that fandoms tend, in general, to spawn fanworks containing what is lacking in the source material. So a childish series will have a darker and grittier fics than one would think at first glance, depressing pieces of media will be full of fix-it fics and stories with happy endings, etc.

And I think that has quite a bit of truth in it, yeah.

That being said, using TF2 in that first image, given how whacky the franchise looks to me as a bystander, I wouldn't be surprised if the unicorns and such had actually been part of some event, sort of an LSD dream lmao

Well ash finally woke up

Yeah, it only took a whole year for that to happen 😭

Real talk tho, that is a very good indicative to me that the timeline doesn't follow 1:1 the times of release, aka, it didn't really take Ash a year to wake up. Cause uhh, "a coma rarely lasts over a month. Instead, individuals who remain unconscious for prolonged periods typically progress to a wakeful but unconscious state called post-coma unresponsiveness".

Yes, there are cases where people wake up after years and years in a coma, but those are odd cases and not a general rule of thumb. Not to mention Ash look very perky/alert and fit for work while still having some fresh injuries that required bandages/bandaids. So, she didn't spend too much time in a come then 🤔

There certain unwritten rules in team Rainbow.

Never ask osa's birth name

Never ask Sens' birth gender

Never ask Amarus age

Never ask Gridlock how much she weighs

Never ask smoke what's in the canister (it was funny the first few times but now it's a dead meme and he finds it annoying)

Never ask Dokkeabi what her search history is

Never ask Ash what her position on the Israeli/Palestine conflict.

Never ask twitch how wealthy she is

Never ask Valkyrie what her side gig is

Never ask frost what if she has a hunting license

And under no circumstances do you ever ask what the German and Japanese operators parents/grandparents did between the years 1935 and 1945

I mean, most of them are just common sense and courtesy tbh. And asking people their weight or dead name is rude as hell. I gather the same with politics in a multicultural organization like Rainbow, they probably have a "no politics discussions" rule to keep things smoother.

And yeah, I get this is all meme material, but tbh I never found most of those memes funny, sorry 😅

Also, I don't get the Valkyrie one?

Les Miserables Doc and Lion aren't real they can't hurt you

Les Miserables Doc and Lion:

Gustav, at last

We see each other plain

Monsieur le Maire

You'll wear a different chain

Before you say another word, Oliver

Before you chain me up like a slave again

Listen to me, there is something I must do

This woman leaves behind a suffering child

There is none but me who can intercede

In Mercy's name, three days are all I need

Then I'll return, I pledge my word

That I'll return

You must think me mad

I've hunted you across the years

Men like you can never change

A man such as you

Les Mis Lion/Doc IS real!! Behold 😂

taken from a shot of a theatre play instead of the movie, cause it's the first screenshot on the google search that had both of them mostly facing the audience

Fandom: **gives actually good ships like , ash/thermite, frost/kapkan, thermite/Hibana, sledge/gridlock, Doc/twitch, Doc/cav and twitch/cav**

Ubisoft: hmmm yeah no um actually the Canadians and Spetsnaz hate each other, Ash and thermite only see each other as siblings as well as Hibana and Cav is already in a relationship with an off screen character were only gonna mention once in a battle pass item.

Fandom: ...........

Ubisoft: so anyway here's Pulse/Hibana

I'll be honest, I don't think any of those ships you mention is good, except for Twitch/Cav (and Sledge/Gridlock, sort of) 😅

Canadians and Spetsnaz disliking each other, due to their wildly different approaches in the field is actually realistic and kind of a forgone conclusion for some people before Ubi ever added that bit in Harry's original board. Yeah, they're not gonna be besties. In fact, the only one spetsanz who was shown in concept art interacting with Frost was Glaz, and it was related to both speaking Chinese.

And Ash and Thermite escaping the "main gal and main dude" syndrome of being considered romantic interests and having instead a sibling relationship was a breath of fresh air to me, tbh.

None of those ships has any base for becoming canon, except, again for Twitch/Cav (but that was in a different game and ofc ubi ignored it in Siege). In fact, if there's one (1) ship I was surprised they didn't go for is Thermite/Hibana. They knew each other from before Rainbow, she has voicelines referencing him, he was in that easter egg image that was supposedly a hint for Pulse/Hibana. If they made Thermite/Hibana happen instead, it wouldn't have felt as out of the blue as Pulse/Hibana. And this is the only time you'll catch me defending a het ship 😂

Nah they had rook doing the ☹️ face

To be fair, I'd also be doing an :( face if I got shot. And pull a gun of my own out if I could. So yeah, Rook's reaction is a big mood overall and perfectly understandable 😂

Now bandit has some friends courtesy of Maverick

B-bandit, you said? 👀 Yeah, he's also been rocking a new hat lately

Oh. OH NO...

Why thermite has been banned from making drones

Please, as if the rest of the R&D crew wouldn't make a joint petition with him to be allowed to test these and other similar drones in the workshop! The real question is if Mira would allow it 😂

Missed Jackal elite

Hhhh, as a Spaniard, I'm so glad it isn't tbh.

How outsider see the Spanish legion: ohh, hot slutty outfit!

How Spaniards see the legion: fascist shithole, let's just make jokes about them fucking their pet goat

#sgtnicoloff #rainbow 6 siege #r6s #rainbow six siege

[r6shippingdelivery]

Who's case is this?

The shape of the weapon made me think of Jackal, and him knowing how to play the Spanish guitar isn't too far fetched, so the case checks out too. Hmm, the question is, who do you guys think this case would belong to?

While Fenirs trailer did give us a look at thermites office it didn't show ALL of it

Fenrir, distracted by the multitude of possums frozen in place, observing him: "Are they... stuffed, or...?

Thermite: "Stuffed? Well, only when they get into the kitchen or someone feeds them too many treats"

Fenrir: "Oh, so they are alive. Can I pet them?"

Thermite, almost crying in happiness: "Welcome to Redhammer, you'll fit right in!"

Ash: jager....what's in the box

Jager: uuuhhhh nothing

Ash: what. Is. In. The . Box.

Jager: don't get mad

I mean, Ash said she didn't want any more possums brought into the base... but she never accounted for any other animals, Jäger was just following the rules! 😂

PS: The rules were obviously updated, with a loooong list of what was allowed and what not, lmao

POV: you're an opossum

I know a few people who wouldn't mind at all, if only for the chance Thermite would pick them up 😏
