For Rainbow Six Siege, a tactical FPS with well over 50 different operators heading into its' eighth year of content, balancing updates are vital - perhaps even moreso than brand new content. However, just because they're important, doesn't mean they're easy to identify; for example, you can easily identify a bug that needs fixing in an update, and that's just as important. But, saying that, Rainbow Six Siege players are growing increasingly convinced that Splinter Cell alumni Zero is next on the chopping block; we disagree, and here's why.
As highlighted by this Rainbow Six Siege fan on Reddit, Zero has access to one of the best assault rifle options in Ubisoft's FPS: theSC3000K. Dealing decent damage while boasting a high fire rate and a large magazine size, this AR has benefitted hugely from the latest set of patch notes - which buffed the damage bonus from the Extended Barrel attachment by 15%.
In addition to this, Zero is also a three-speed Attacker. This makes him one of the more mobile Attackers in-game and a lethal operator in the right hands. One self-proclaimed Iana main on Reddit went as far as to say that Zero is "absolutely busted" on maps like Bank, right now.
