Because of the Nade Nerf an the introduce of Ram, Sledge should get his Smg11 back and become a 2 Speed again. Otherwise he cannot compete with Buck or Ram because both are by far better then Sledge now.
I would mostly agree. I feel like the SMG-11 should 100% be given back to him. However, I would make the argument that him being a 3 armor right now is fine. I don't think making him a 2 speed would affect much. He'd die to nitros more often, but be able to rotate quicker. At the end of the day I think he would go unaffected by the change
My first thoughts were the same as yours. The difference of sledge being a 2 speed again wouldnt make a big difference or make him op. But it would bring him more in Line with the two others. For RAM 1 Speed is really no problem, because she can brech from far away. Buck cant breach from that far, but he can breach from distance, too. Sledges biggest disadvantage is that he must stand exactly at the point where he wants to breach an 3 armor makes him loud and slow. As two speed he would be nearer to the others but still with a disadvantage while breaching. Keep up your great work!!! P.S.: Sledges Hammer is not infinite. He can "only" use 25 times...
@@Crystal_Mangive him back the SMG 11 And make his hammer a viable close range option to kill defenders in very close range aka he can swing his hammer and less clunky to use And, lessen the time a bit when he uses his hammer and puts it in his back Maybe make him a 2 speed again? Yeah
@@BMPimo there’s no reason to bring sledge ever. If you need someone with emps you are gonna bring dokk, capitao, osa, thatcher, gridlock. Frag grenades really aren’t that good and I’d say secondary hard breaches are actually top 3 with flash bangs and emps. He is too slow and can’t clear shields or castles from further away. If you need to get rid of a lot of window castles, you can always have Buck bring hard breaches and his gonne 6 to get rid of them, or use rams cars.
I wholeheartedly agree with this list Buck is low key the best attacker in the game right now just because of the sheer utility and versatility he brings and plus he’s not broken he’s extremely balanced
That is true, and something I didn't consider. But you have to keep in mind that that shotgun is slow, and difficult to use for that role since it leaves ram vulnerable. Buck can instantly switch to an AR while Ram is stuck with her shotgun
Nade cooking was a contentious thing in the community. I think they could've went about it differently, but it still was something that needed to be nerfed
@@miceatah9359not really. I'm not particularly good at the game, and all it took was a single custom game for me to learn it permanently. It was a cheap, unfair way of dying, and even if they nerfed the damage, its also a cheap way of getting rid of utility, making wamai and jager completely useless.
Sledge either needs a rework or his smg-11 back. After the base nerf he’s pretty trash now. There is literally no reason to pick him over buck or ram. (Besides the halo elite)
the versatility of buck’s ranged verticality cannot be stressed enough. on some sites, you can play vertically from two floors up with the amount of range on his shotgun.
Ram is hard to use as a new player but you could honestly do some pretty sneaky stuff with her doom buggies. Toss one above, go down the stairs, initiate the doom rover and while your foes are looking up, move in for a surprise attack. This is also much better with a team.
+ for Ram - tank bracking everything in front of him, kibas too. she can brake whole wall with just making hole in top of wall and then use her tank on it. make all rotations open from upward - its very scary, believe me. you can throw tank and use it later
Sledge is honestly so shit now. No frags, no smg 11, big hit box and heavy af. They even destroyed zofia. Dumb af balancing changes for attacking is more difficult
Buck is great for pinching, ram is great for full OBJ exposure, sledge is awesome for getting into those niche areas above and supporting buck with pinches, try the triple stack.
I think another thing you didn’t really take into consideration but probably should have is the speed of these ops. It wouldn’t really change the standings, but sledge being a 1 speed makes him way worse at running around to destroy utility and make vert. Buck is chilling cause he’s a 2 speed, and if ram were a 2 speed I think there’d be no argument that she’s the best vertical op. I still think Buck is all around better, but one perk to ram is that if you don’t have anyone to watch your back while making vert, it’s easier to watch your own back. When I play ram I throw all the cars down then leave the room while they are making vert and watch my own flank. Ram also has a shotgun for more precise vert for anyone saying buck does a better job because of that.
i think rams puts the most pressure on the defenders, but overall I think buck is better, he can still defend himself if someone catches him off guard and switch between his ability quickly
i dont get why people arent using the path selection on rams drones, press B and you can curve it around instead of it going into the wall for 10 seconds
Can ram really be brought on any site tho? If it's 2F, without much scope for verticality, she wouldn't be as useful as sledge or buck since they have soft wall breach
Yeaaa, I play alot of Ram and she is very objective dependent. Typically there's always atleast two sights on every map she can excel at but not always. Kanal and coastline are maps where she isn't the best. Especially coastline with 2 second floor objectives she can't really make many plays on that map.
agree with the outcome disagree with some of the reasoning u gave way too much excuses for sledge hes borderline useless him having better options for secondary gadgets doesnt do much since all u will be using are flashbangs emps are useless on him bc u wont/shouldnt be around the breachers thats simply not ur role a fatlock or osa with emps would make much more sense around breachers
overall its buck best weapon and most versatile followed by ram bc theres simply nobody better to play from above sledge is absolutely useless worst gadget of the 3 worst weapon aswell as nades being absolutely useless now also his hammer doesnt have infinte uses thats wrong info my dude
I love sledge he can make so many plays insite with softwalls in such a short amount that buck and ram can’t do most of time, also with his very good gun and the ability to destroy maestro cams I think he is the best vert operator if he was a 2 speed he would be broken

agree even then hed be just ok
@@juergengebrath2719 disagree strongly with him being op at 2 speed buck and ram would still be much better operators for virtually every scenario
@@miceatah9359 I said he would not be op as 2 speed!
You won't believe how many times I died to a Buck playing vertically from below me 😭🗿
Yeah playing vert from below is a hard thing to master but it is something that he is only capable of doing at scale

Rip sledge. Was my favorite operator for 8 years .
I think he might need some slight buffs
@@Crystal_Mangive him back the SMG 11
And make his hammer a viable close range option to kill defenders in very close range aka he can swing his hammer and less clunky to use
And, lessen the time a bit when he uses his hammer and puts it in his back
Maybe make him a 2 speed again? Yeah
@@michaelexeye26162 speed is the only buff that I want would be 🔥
Yeah sledge isn't doing to hot right now. I think both of the other vert play ops outclass him

Michael Myers with sledge on house makes him alone the best vert operator.
Damn you got me there 🤷♂️
Sledge Myers wins in fear tactics
The reason I play Sledge over Buck other than the master chief skin is being able to destroy castles, shields and bulletproof gadgets with his hammer
I wholeheartedly agree with this list
Buck is low key the best attacker in the game right now just because of the sheer utility and versatility he brings and plus he’s not broken he’s extremely balanced
Yeah exactly. I don't want Ubisoft to think he needs a nerf because he doesn't. I think buck should be an example of how operators should be balanced
I guess we're just gonna diss Capitao like that
perfect ranking. I totally agree. I missed Buck’s nades tho. He was much more versatile while he had them.🔥
Yeah if he gave them back, he'd be the best operator in the game BY FARR
Poor Fuze got left out
I just run around above the enemies randomly placing the fuze charges and hope for the best 💀
that flick on vigil at 4:00 was crazy
I would say that Rams shotgun secondary makes her just as versatile as buck because she can also open holes from under.
It's slower and not as efficient because the reason buck is so good is because his gadget is a easy quick switch under barrel
That is true, and something I didn't consider. But you have to keep in mind that that shotgun is slow, and difficult to use for that role since it leaves ram vulnerable. Buck can instantly switch to an AR while Ram is stuck with her shotgun
@@BMP this guy gets it
@@BMPI do think this makes ram better from above though, cause if her cars miss anything, then she has a shotgun for extra vert.
@@BMPjust throw the rams in site and play below ☠️
Why tf they take away nade cooking. Biggest sledge nerf since taking the smg imo
Nade cooking was a contentious thing in the community. I think they could've went about it differently, but it still was something that needed to be nerfed
@@BMPthey could have just make the damage drop off from when you get naded from below really bad that was the only issue
@@thepurpleemuNades were bustedly good in many reasons and became a reason that people picked ops just like the 1.5X.
@@BMP no it didnt it took skill to kill sm1 with a cooked ade from below
@@miceatah9359not really. I'm not particularly good at the game, and all it took was a single custom game for me to learn it permanently.

Those giant ahh metal beams make playing vert so hard I don’t even bother anymore 💀
Fr they need to add an op that can melt them bitches I hate floor beams.
Buck is the best because u can play vertical with him from above and below floors
Sledge either needs a rework or his smg-11 back. After the base nerf he’s pretty trash now. There is literally no reason to pick him over buck or ram. (Besides the halo elite)

Buck is great for pinching, ram is great for full OBJ exposure, sledge is awesome for getting into those niche areas above and supporting buck with pinches, try the triple stack.
I’m still going to use sledge 😅
should also point out that sledge's hammer is fairly quiet its still noticeable to a degree but compare it to Buck and Ram its basically quiet

Great vid as always. I'd love to hear your thoughts on a Sledge buff so he stays comparable to the other two.
i think rams puts the most pressure on the defenders, but overall I think buck is better, he can still defend himself if someone catches him off guard and switch between his ability quickly
I agree. The amount of pressure Ram can put on the defenders at once can overwhelm them. But I do think buck is more versatile overall
I havent played siege in years my days as a buck main where something special
i dont get why people arent using the path selection on rams drones, press B and you can curve it around instead of it going into the wall for 10 seconds
Buck can literally take any role in the game right now at his current state
The only thing sledge has over buck is castle
He can also destroy shields, smash bulletproof gadgets, and he is master chief.
@@why8298oh yeah
Ram shotgun can also do vertical play from below
ram opening walls kinda works though
wait you’re back?
I miss Buck with the Nade
Lowkey dont agree with rams versatility score. If the map doesnt have soft floors above we the obj her gadget is practically useless
I agree

If buck had emp’s or nades he’d legit be 40/40
Not putting hibana is criminal

Sledge was nerfed the moment grenades were nerfed.
Blud has black ice on every gun 💀💀💀
You should do this with intel ops
I did ages ago. And since most of the information is accurate still, I haven't updated it
what about fuze
He can’t see where he people are
No Fuze?
I think ram is better but I think they are all good
Fuse?
Rip sledge so many nerfs for no reason
this is quite stupid still because even though you have chose buck for the best who would you rather playing vert a ram or a buck? obviously ram
Prediction is buck I just started watching
😂 pov u watched the video then commented
@@jakeheape8349 I mean it’s an easy guess cause buck is just objectively one of the best attackers in r6 rn
Not a bad guess lol
@@BMP thx I mean with 4k hours you kinda get to know the game well
I suck at vertical play
It takes a while to learn. I'm thinking about doing a video to help people learn how to do it, if thats something people are interested in
Yes please @@BMP 🙏
Where is fuze
I think Ram's score was a bit too high
overall its buck best weapon and most versatile followed by ram bc theres simply nobody better to play from above sledge is absolutely useless worst gadget of the 3 worst weapon aswell as nades being absolutely useless now also his hammer doesnt have infinte uses thats wrong info my dude
You can play ram from below 😭😭😭
Sledge gadget is easily an 8

Ngl lmg e is def not best tho
