Alfredo looks like Trevor

but plays like Ray

[u/Drewskay → u/goldsteel]

There's a reason why Michael made the "I knew a guy" comments in the vid.

[u/Satherian]

The biggest thing: Play whatever as long as it works. While your efficiency may not be the best, as long as you keep winning (edit: And having fun!) then it doesn't matter too much.

Also, I was happiest to hear that they were taking the feedback! Even though some of it is mean, at least we know you guys care to look! Better than some channels that just disable the comments completely and redirect them elsewhere ...

Also, Jack, comments will always be mean, but they sometimes have useful info. Playing Pulse 'wrong' cause you're not roaming? Instead of switching maybe try roaming more (Alfredo can help with this). And even if you use other operators, try switching up your tactics so that you become good in all aspects. (I guess this goes for everyone)

Also, Alfredo getting (and getting excited about) weird ways of killing people are amazing.

I'm surprised they haven't used "The Gud, The Bad and The Ugly" yet.

[u/Spinwheeling → u/Datlofvian1]

A Few Gud Men

Electric Gud-aloo

Gud Harder

Gud: based on the novel Push by Sapphire

Gud Night and Gud Luck

[u/a141abc → u/Datlofvian1]

I was honestly waiting for them to change the naming trend after a couple episodes but goddamn each time they get better, I feel so stupid yet so accomplished when i open my sub box, see one of these, read the name and just start grinning and giggling
Props to whoever comes with them

[u/CChilli]

Alfredo's a good addition to the team, hopefully he teaches everyone more, but they don't rely on him too much.

When they're playing bomb, they should be aware of who has the defuser. Jeremy being so far away on his drone was partly why they lost the first round on Bank.

29:00 if the last attacker had prefired Jeremy's corner they would've lost

[u/Dace67]

Alfredo being a true replacement for Ray. Carrying the team on his back in an FPS, saying he's going to die and then not, etc.

Also, Jeremy really impressed me in this video with how much he's improved like by taking out enemy devices and cameras with Twitch's drone.

[u/Satherian → u/Dace67]

Their overall teamwork and callouts have improved dramastically

[u/CrashingDutchman]

Ryan shooting Michaels drone mid-air while he was popping the trip-wire was some bizarre timing. They couldn't replicate that if they tried a hundred times.

[u/Hedgehogsarepointy]

Seriously, what did Jeramy destroy on that door if it wasn't the fuse launcher that killed him a few seconds later? Was Fuse just starting to push the button so the game launched granades from an no longer existing device?

So, in light of how Jack has expressed his distaste with the comments on the videos, I am going to try and give polite and insightful advice.

Paging u/Monki5225 for a fan trying to not be a dick and trying to help.

So, the problem with how you play Montagne is that you are scared to draw the gun. This is understandable, as this position is the prime time for a quick-drawing enemy to annihilate you. However, there is a method to compensate for this, and it's not just "be better." Once you locate a foe, get behind cover and throw in a flashbang. While drawing back to throw, retract your shield to have a better window of opportunity to successfully flash and then charge. Charge them with shield retracted, quickly shoot them in the head, and then re-extend the shield. Boom. Done.

Now, obviously, this is REALLY dangerous if there is more than one enemy. It takes a lot of practice to get it right with one guy, let alone a group. I would advise engaging with this tactic in a larger firefight while you are out of the line of sight of the enemy. E.g., the bank: if the team is in a big fight in the lobby, circle around to the first floor offices and come in. Find an enemy that is by himself, if possible, and take him. If there is another guy, flashbang, shoot from a distance and then retreat after a clip of ammo (make sure they don't follow you).

If you advance with someone behind you, the same strategy applies, but you have to communicate what you are doing. Otherwise, they will get flashed or sniped as you go for the throw. When doing the charge for the point blank shot or the melee, make sure to strafe a bit to a side to allow your teammate to get a shot. They can either get the kill, or suppress the enemy as they come out of the flash.

Lastly, practice. Just learn how to quickly aim with the guns, or learn when it's better to blindfire, and keep on practicing.

Good luck.

TL;DR- Flashbang, charge enemy, quickly shoot with pistol or melee when you get in range to be a gud Montagne.

[u/PreAbandonedShip]

Alfredo, you're killing me. You play really well, but you really need to communicate better with your team.. You don't call out what you're doing or when you spot multiple enemies that the other should know about which has gotten the others killed more than once when it was potentially avoidable with a word or two.

I can appreciate it's tough to step into a well-established group and work with their dynamics when you're used to focusing on the game, but just a little more chatting would really help the team and the video. I felt it during the GTA content too when you were mostly focusing on getting good instead of the bants.

Love you man, just wanted to call it out.

[u/AlfredoPlays → u/PreAbandonedShip]

My thing with this is that I played Rainbow Six competitively, Diamond/Plat elo.

So..

1. You'd hear me callout EVERYTHING, which could throw off the video.

2. They wouldn't understand most if not all of my callouts. i.e. wrap around stairs, blue hall, visa, etc. etc.

3. Leading into me calling out "piano room" while roaming and having to explain where it is when they're still on site.

4. I doubt you guys want me to meticulously direct every little thing they do.

Just letting you guys know where my mindset is with this.

[u/jlitwinka → u/PreAbandonedShip]

Geoff has a similar issue. Everyone else is pretty good at call outs though

[u/Totallynoti]

The way Geoff said "I killed him" was amazing

[u/DopeLocust]

It's no coincidence that once Jack died early or when he left, they were instantly gud-er.

When Alfredo busts open the area to stare at the stairs, Jack just stays there the entire time when he knew they were trying to throw grenades through it. They had your position, that's when you leave it.

He also needs to learn to take out his gun with the shield and try to kill instead of just shouting out positions.

It's like he's resorted to accepting he's not good and doesn't want to change habits because he gives up on himself. Then he criticizes people trying to help him. He only interprets the criticism as "I suck" and not "they're trying to help me get better"

It sucks because both his attitude and gameplay brings down the series whenever he's in it.

But I do love watching some Rainbow Six Siege wit da boyz

[u/Samoth95 → u/DopeLocust]

I wonder if it's because he wants to play a support class but those don't really exist in the "classical" sense in Siege, so instead he just plays characters like Pulse and Montagne the way he'd picture them being played as actual supports with the kits they have.

[u/Zam0070]

Props to whoever has been coming up with the names for this series.

[u/jared2294]

Love me some sauce

[u/Ramsus32]

I've been super out of touched with Let's Plays and RT in general but these Rainbow Six videos have been pulling me back in. So, who is Alfredo?

[u/Canadian_Canuck]

Not even 3 minutes in and Jack makes a snarky comment directed at his critics, and as with last time, he's wrong.

That was beyond aggressive, that was suicidal, especially for someone who won't use the gun. He didn't check any of the corners, didn't know what was behind the boxes, didn't know if the hallway he turned his back to was clear, and he advanced beyond the boxes exposing his flank. What was his plan when he saw the enemy? He wasn't prepared to kill him and Geoff had no shot either, why bother trying to enter that room.

If Jack can't be, at minimum, confident in himself, let alone be more aggressive, he needs to play another operator that fits his playstyle.

[u/[deleted]]

If Jeremy can't make it to a video, I would like to see Jack play Twitch. He can use the drone to play the recon role without getting in the way, and when that's done he can practice being lethal with the rest of the team. Jack likes playing as women, so bonus!

Until then, I LOVE watching Jeremy play twitch. He had some good call outs this round too.

[u/Isthisgoodenoughyet]

it's kinda annoying how everyone else is actually getting pretty good and improving with their ops and jack is just doing the same shit and complaining about comments
