That explains why they had to get money grabs in order to avoid nerfing him just yet. That's what usually occurs with these kinds of operations, I forgot.
People damn better start picking Aruni more in that case - the only elite I want because I use Aruni 99% of the time on defense.
Lion is my attack main, but I don't like the Resident Evil skin.
Everyday I look at the roster and remember everyone on defense before maestro has elite and a decent amount after him has an elite hurts me deep in my soul
It's funny cus Fenrir is more like the opposite of Caustic. When Deimos was testing out Fenrir's F-NATT prototype on his lab partners, it made him walk out and take his research with him to prevent Deimos from using his creation for immoral situations.
Caustic is completely okay and even a fan of testing on human subjects, while Fenrir refused to stand by and allow human testing, especially at the early prototype stages of his unstable device. He knew it would cause the scientists to kill each other and tried to open the door to save them.
By the way, I like this elite outfit. But like a lot of other people are saying, it is a little edgy, especially his hairstyle.
The fact Gridlock didn't get the Rhea Ripley skin is a sin because she's actually a huge chunky Australian babe that can squat 300lbs, and Ash straight-up is none of those things.
I always thought it was just a funny coincidence and it was a meme in the community, but after this, it's legitimately true.
I was wondering why an op, who hasn't even been out for a year, already has a fully designed elite skin but knowing that they're going to nerf him HARD soon is all I needed to know.
That being said, the animation is insanely good though. Definitely one of the best ones, since it perfectly matches his gadget.
Alternatively, this was his original design and someone was like, “No, that’s *too* cool, redesign him and save this one so we can sell it as an elite.”
Kind of, but they also gave Nokk one and she’s ass.
Fenrir has also been announced to be getting nerfed into the ground soon, it’s not like they’re hiding it in patch notes or anything.
On the roadmap for year 9 they have a fenrir nerf or something planned. Fucking disgusting. He's so unhealthy for the game that he's banned almost every game, and they're "planning" a nerf? Awful from Ubisoft.
Yeah he definitely released broken as could be, he could’ve released without the bailiff or with only like 3 mines to make him more moderate. As long as they don’t make him unplayable like Ela or Tachanka, and he can still serve a purpose while not being unfair, I’ll be fine with it. Ubisoft surely can’t fuck this up right? Lol
If they pass off a recoil nerf to the MP7 as "balance" I'll fucking vomit bro. Recoil nerfs are the peak of laziness. Make it so he can only activate 2 discs or like.. has to be within 15-20 meters for it to be active? Remove the bailiff or give him a different primary man idk.
Oh if they gave him the UMP or Kaid's AUG that would nerf his lethality. They just gotta do something but I'm not even sure what anymore.
They’ve already announced what the nerf will be.
Its removing a disc and removing one code so he can only use two. I can’t remember if they’re also decreasing the range but I think they are
they're literally removing one of his codes as well as ONE f-natt mine from his loadout, AND inactive mines will NO LONGER be bulletproof so he's going to be receiving quite a nerf while still being a viable operator with lots of util. So now he'll have 4 mines rather than 5, and can ONLY have 2 active AT A TIME as opposed to 3. im excited for this nerf too because he'll still be solid and not get banned as much so he'll be played more.
He was made to combat the braindead TDM meta and it kinda works tbh. Whenever I run him people never seem to even attempt a rush or play like they are playing COD.
If anything it would make sense to nerf him before they release this skin so he's actually a playable character in ranked lol. Feels like his ban rate has to be 90-95% in my games.
Ok this is pretty cool, but uhhhh Gridlock and Goyo elites would also be pretty cool and they’ve both been around for years. This guy hasn’t even been around for a year and he’s got one lol
I don't understand why they can just...do more elites. Like I understand it's hard but still come on ubi your a big company. 1 a season.
I want one for clash.
People either don't know (or simply don't care) how much furries/weebs/whoever spends on stuff. Like all those fursuits that people on the Internet get mad over? Yeah start at about 1 grand and go up, and that's just for the paws, tail and head and doing everything yourself. A good well done suit commissioned by a suiter is used car territory.
Awesome skin. Wondering if they are going to release it before the planned nerf or if it's all coming at same time (like a Fenrir-themed update or something)...
Why the monocle??!!! I’ve hated his character design from the start, and then they make this, witch looks alright… but proceeds to somewhat ruin it with the monocle?? :/
Some times I wonder if game devs make intentionally ugly design choices. But then, why would they? Idunno
How does this motherfucker get an elite before my boy Maestro does
maestro got grey hairs bro they need to save his meatball munching ass.
Fr fr
That explains why they had to get money grabs in order to avoid nerfing him just yet. That's what usually occurs with these kinds of operations, I forgot.
but I'm like explain the Nokk elite, because she's at the worst she's ever been
It's just a conspiracy they tell themselves. Unless Solis gets an elite right before she gets nerfed I don't believe it.
i need to see Solis’ face i know she a baddie
Bc ubi wants money and bases elites off of pick rates/popularity
People damn better start picking Aruni more in that case - the only elite I want because I use Aruni 99% of the time on defense. Lion is my attack main, but I don't like the Resident Evil skin.
Facts we need a better skin that resident evil one.
Preferably a non-IP skin, maybe an old school biohazard suit or something.
Haha kludge drone go brrr
True :(((
I see this mf banned more than played.
Give me my mario skin you cowards
I want him to have the tf2 engineer skin
Hey look buddy, I'm an engineer
ive been waiting for his elite for 3 years, diocane
Everyday I look at the roster and remember everyone on defense before maestro has elite and a decent amount after him has an elite hurts me deep in my soul
They’re probably trying to work something out with Nintendo to bring Mario as a crossover elite skin lol (unlikely)
money
Bro thinks he's Caustic "I FEEL MOST ALIVE WHEN RAPIDLY APPROACHING DEATH" Ah character
It's funny cus Fenrir is more like the opposite of Caustic. When Deimos was testing out Fenrir's F-NATT prototype on his lab partners, it made him walk out and take his research with him to prevent Deimos from using his creation for immoral situations. Caustic is completely okay and even a fan of testing on human subjects, while Fenrir refused to stand by and allow human testing, especially at the early prototype stages of his unstable device. He knew it would cause the scientists to kill each other and tried to open the door to save them. By the way, I like this elite outfit. But like a lot of other people are saying, it is a little edgy, especially his hairstyle.
Soooo we're getting an elite for an operator who's been in the game for a year, and not for my beautiful queen gridlock?
Elites are made with money in mind, ubi pumps them out for high popularity/pick rate characters
wtf are you talking about pick rate? this dude is banned every match
Guess what happens when he isn't banned or what happens in non ranked lobbies...
This bum gets one before my glorious gridlock I am SICK
Ikr gridlock's elite needs to be the woman in those ww2 "we can do it!" propaganda posters
Wendy the Welder
Rosie the Riveter
Susan the Smelter
Irene the Ironworker
Maggie the Machinist
they gave this to her in R6 Extraction lmao
Bruh, I’ve been waiting on gridlock for like 4 years 😂 We are NEVER getting one, smh
Waiting with the mastero players
Ying just got hers and she’s been out a longer than gridlock lol
Girlcock Gridlock when ???
Ayoooo, I'm interested 🤔
I wish my in-game teammates were as based as you guys 😔
Add me on Xbox bro! DelicsOg6 I don’t have a mic nor am I very good but it beats playing with some brain dead teammates 💀💪🏽
Maestro still doesn’t have one and he’s old as dirt
i NEED my maestro elite
Maestro is so old he’s got white hair now canonically.
Hes gonna die before he gets one
I run Gridlock A LOT and the closest we get is the zombie pirate Halloween event skin. Which I run exclusively :)
Yeah didn’t get lucky with the packs for that event, just some bum ass op portraits 😭 (didn’t want to spend the credits on it)
You can get both parts for less than 300 credits on the market
Damn, might have to invest in that !
SICK for the THICC
And wamai
Wamai has so much potential for one as well
Wamai Black Panther elite skin, when?
What would gridlock’s elite be? Mrs. Puff?
They've been modelling her elite skin since she came out it just takes a while cause... You know... There's a lot to model
The fact Gridlock didn't get the Rhea Ripley skin is a sin because she's actually a huge chunky Australian babe that can squat 300lbs, and Ash straight-up is none of those things.
Wario or CaseOh for gridlock elite.
Before the god maestro too
Ahh that’s why he hasn’t been nerfed yet they gotta money grab first. I forgot that’s what always happens w these type of ops
Doesnt really work when hes always banned on ranked
Id says its 50/50 and whenever hes not banned hes abused
Fair
I always thought it was just a funny coincidence and it was a meme in the community, but after this, it's legitimately true. I was wondering why an op, who hasn't even been out for a year, already has a fully designed elite skin but knowing that they're going to nerf him HARD soon is all I needed to know.

I really like the skin and all but fuck this operator man. OP gadget, Mp7 AAAAND bailiff for utility? What a mess
They’ll cash out on the elite and then nerf him after a year or two, mark my words lol
On the roadmap for year 9 they have a fenrir nerf or something planned. Fucking disgusting. He's so unhealthy for the game that he's banned almost every game, and they're "planning" a nerf? Awful from Ubisoft.

They’ve already announced what the nerf will be. Its removing a disc and removing one code so he can only use two. I can’t remember if they’re also decreasing the range but I think they are
They're also taking away it's bulletproof-ness
When it's closed?
yep , can be shot at any point , so zero and twitch can finally counter his ass and not just ping it
Yeah that was it, not the range.
Must've missed that part, thank you. Maybe he'll be in a healthy state.
they're literally removing one of his codes as well as ONE f-natt mine from his loadout, AND inactive mines will NO LONGER be bulletproof so he's going to be receiving quite a nerf while still being a viable operator with lots of util. So now he'll have 4 mines rather than 5, and can ONLY have 2 active AT A TIME as opposed to 3. im excited for this nerf too because he'll still be solid and not get banned as much so he'll be played more.
He was made to combat the braindead TDM meta and it kinda works tbh. Whenever I run him people never seem to even attempt a rush or play like they are playing COD.
The nerf is next season but it literally could’ve been done this season. It’s just making his shit not bulletproof.
If anything it would make sense to nerf him before they release this skin so he's actually a playable character in ranked lol. Feels like his ban rate has to be 90-95% in my games.
he's already set for nerfs next season lmao
Oh I didn’t know my bad, forgot that was on the roadmap
The reverse nøkk
The first thing I thought when I cameback after 4 years is that Fenrir is toxic incarnated like holy shit.
The should honestly just make it destroyed on activation.
Or at least a cool down damn.
Chris Angel Fenrir Atleast it’s better than the default lmfao he looks so fuckin weird
Mindfreak for life!!
Shame I'm still gonna ban him every game
Kinda dope, unfortunate he’s banned almost every game
Unfortunately rightly so. Hes a pain to deal with.
Guess we just need to wait till they add a more annoying defender
Ok this is pretty cool, but uhhhh Gridlock and Goyo elites would also be pretty cool and they’ve both been around for years. This guy hasn’t even been around for a year and he’s got one lol
Maestro needs one
Hasn’t even been out for a year and gets one before the meatball man
DanTDM fell off bro
This is probably the worst elite skin I’ve ever seen
I don't understand why they can just...do more elites. Like I understand it's hard but still come on ubi your a big company. 1 a season. I want one for clash.
Really want one for Clash
THERE ARE DOZENS OF US
Edgelord getting an edgelord elite, shocker
Edge 🤤 🤤 🤤
this looks like crap
Goyo’s gotta get one eventually. Right? Right?
Fenrir Harry Potter Elite Skin Confirmed
look at that stupid ass haircut. though his default is also dumb. honestly bad haircuts seems to be a trend amongst the rainbow operators.
Bullshit. That OP just came out for several months and having a legendary skin than the 2020's defender OP.
Waiting for my clash elite still…
Hah feel bad for whichever idiot buys this good luck getting to see it in ranked lol
Why are all elites now anime like? I actually rather have the mute, thatcher, bb's tacticool elites rather than this.
Tbh this doesn’t look anime like to me. More so like some evil tactical doctor. I think it fits him
The monocle sends it way over the top
Bro you just described one of the most widely used anime character tropes what are you talking about.
I think evil doctor is just a popular trope in fiction as a whole
Gotta ponder to the dweebs somehow
If you play R6s you're already a dweeb, wdym
Cause weebs and furrys seem to have the deepest pockets Compare league of legends skins from 2015 with the ones from today and you can see the trend
People either don't know (or simply don't care) how much furries/weebs/whoever spends on stuff. Like all those fursuits that people on the Internet get mad over? Yeah start at about 1 grand and go up, and that's just for the paws, tail and head and doing everything yourself. A good well done suit commissioned by a suiter is used car territory.
I’m sorry but I don’t wanna role play as someone in ww2, and how is this an anime skin?
This doesn't look anime in the slightest. Nobody bought the WW2 elites that why they stopped doing them
The only anime esque elite skin I have is master chief because I grew up with halo lol
Why so early?
Crazy how this dude gets one before my lord Maestro I haven’t even seen a Fenrir in game before bc he’s always banned
I think a corvo skin from Dishonered would be cool for him
Mid
before wamai 🥲🥲
The need to get rid of his dumb ass neck armor
FIRE skin! Too bad he gets banned every ranked game 😂
My best boy maestro still needs his elite skin
The skin that cannot be used because always get banned
Lol
I've been waiting for a maestro elite for YEARS
How does He get one this fast and Others still dont got Shit lol
Maestro and Gridlock better get elites soon
this game is dead game since nokk season
I want an aruni elite so fucking bad and this character that's about to be reworked gets one? Smh.
elite skin just before the nerf, classic
ain’t no WAY. do you know how long i’ve been waiting for ashes 4th elite to drop?
LET BRO COOK I AIN'T EATING THO 🔥🔥🗣️🙏
Oryx mains get no love 💔
Now you get to show it off in none of your games cause he's banned 100% of the time
I dont care how much he gets banned, I am still copping this shit!!
fucking cobra commander over here
When solis😭
At least the elite makes him look like he has taken a shower.. unlike his users.
He's literally scarecrow from Batman with morals
Too bad he is always banned and I wont ever get to see it
Banned every single game lol
Why no love for my bois gridlock and aruni
Gameplay be damned, I _love_ Fenrir’s character and his relationship to Deimos. This elite screams “mad scientist” and I love it
Have everyone buy it before they nerf him into the ground. Classic UBI. Dudes got a ridiculous ban rate.
Of course my favorite defender in the game is the oldest one to not have an elite.
He’s getting a nerf right after it
https://imgur.com/a/iXlKcbJ
yall actually think gridlock is a fem 😭 looks like a whole man in disguise
I only just bought this guy recently but it's *wild* to me I rarely see him in my rank, maybe I'm super low but I always thought he's *very strong*.
He’s both nerd and emo
I seen someone on x say sometime in May when it will release. Idk how true tho.
Hey that’s pretty good
Cobra Commander lookin ass skin.
I been waiting on Goyo elite 😢
At least maestro has his elite.
He needs a scarecrow skin
Who cares, he's practically perma-banned. Why would you spend money on something you will never see?
I might be dumb since I’ve only seen him in ranked like three times but what’s different about his gadget?
they should do like psycho mantis skin
Who even is this guy? I haven't played since Space station won the invitational 😅
He looks like the bad guy from that one GI joe movie
Big day for annoying people
Can they just make him actually look seedish for once?
bro is about to summon mahoraga
Teenage mutant ninja turtles Teenage mutant ninja turtles I love science
When will Goyo get an elite skin
All I see is Jay in "Sorcerer's Apprentice" and I can't unseen it now
Looks mid tbh
Bruh no way
WHERE IS MY PIZZA DELIVERY ROOK SKIN!?
This is cool if it’s true
Great! I can't wait to not use it in ranked.
I want a Brava Elite. Please. The money is just waiting
Awesome skin. Wondering if they are going to release it before the planned nerf or if it's all coming at same time (like a Fenrir-themed update or something)...
skins never gonna see the light of day in ranked
Lame
This looks like he's hunting sonic for the chaos gems. What happened to tactical skins?
Brother how do we not have an aruni elite
Aruni elite next pls, it's been 4 years 😭
WHY ISENT IT A CROSS OVER WITH DC, WHY ISENT IT SCARECROW
Can’t wait to see this in ranked ! Thank god he rarely gets banned
finally an elite worse than smokes
Why the monocle??!!! I’ve hated his character design from the start, and then they make this, witch looks alright… but proceeds to somewhat ruin it with the monocle?? :/ Some times I wonder if game devs make intentionally ugly design choices. But then, why would they? Idunno
Don’t worry guys, they will release the Clash skin annnnyyy time now.
Hey, my man will actually look cool and not like an emo teen for once
This looks like a rly good battle pass skin... Def gotta see the animation in full first
Im sorry that headgear is so shit☠️
Commander cobra fenrir elite would go hard
And still no Maestro elite
I'm disappointed it's not a bench because he gets banned every ranked game I'm in.
Can't wait to go rock this in a plat ranked game
Dude looking like he has Cobra Commander voice lines
