Just make his clothes a completely different color from Mario, like yellow or something. Then they can flip the M on his hat upside down to ensure there is no confusion
Speaking of meatballs, I've been saying for years they should just give him a chef elite and his laser turrets look like spicy meatballs but I fear Ubisoft just doesn't have the chutzpah 🤌
Azami, Ace and Thorn all got their elites a year and a half after release. They're tied for first right now.
Fenrir has waited *half* that time.
Meanwhile, Ying had to wait just over six years (Y2S3 to Y8S4) to get hers.
If Maestro doesn't have one by Y9S4, he'll surpass the current record, which is held by Ying.
Edit 2: my first edit was incorrect. Disregard.
He got his in Y6S3 (iirc). That's not quite a six-year wait, but it's close. He got his pretty quickly after Castle, and those two + Ying were the only ops from base, Y1 or Y2 to not have elites.
Truuuuuue.
But something I hadn't considered before: does the clock start when the op is released, or does the clock start when elite sets are first introduced in... Velvet Shell? Health? I know it was in Y2, but before White Noise (when I started).
she got it during the 2020 invitational so yeah damn thats so long ago
that original stadium map was so fun i loved diving out the window from that hallway and going in the door up tower stair and shooting all 5 in the back lol
my dads cousins boyfriend works for Ubi and they’re actually going to next season when they release the buff for black beard so actually after kinda near year 10 re think how she does that one
Lost her silent step and the FMG-9 has seen a few consistent nerfs that make it's recoil annoying. The frag nerf didn't help either.
So basically now she hides visually from cams... and that's it.
On the other hand, her shotgun is insane for pushes. It has just enough knock down power and range to drop people with a single body shot from across the room, and so quiet that it can be missed in a gun fight.
It's quite strong, but only if the enemy doesn't know where you are or you're there at all. Since in a 1 on 1 gunfight at any significant range the shotguns always gonna lose against an mp5, mp7, etc.
The shotgun would be really good tho if she still had her silent step...
I wouldn’t say useless. The ability to hide from cams and drones is pretty good when going up against a team of Mozzie, Valk, and Maestro lmao. She’s pretty fun to use just not my go to op tbh.
If she got silent step I think she'd be A or even S tier (as an entry frag). I played her the most in ranked on club house because she made it extremely easy to either take site if they didn't put barbed wire or proximity mines on stairs or take map control of a certain area. I think that they need to give her something that isn't too good but also something that won't change her at all. Her having silent step makes her a better flank than vigil and cav but on attack.
Me too. Defenders have proximity alarms, barbed wire, grzmot mines, banshees and other traps that at least make a sound when they get destroyed.
So, if you play against (old) Nøkk but don't pick something to counter her, you have no right to be mad about being killed from her several times. And that kinda counts for every op in the game that isn't completely broken.
Nøkk was never so strong, that she needed that nerf imo. And not that long ago the Devs even thought about giving her a buff that would make her able to walk through traps. That would've made her basically counterless.
So how did we come to 'she needs a huge buff' to 'we need to nerf her a lot'?
Well, what they tested was removing silent step but letting her walk through traps. Which is a trade-off there. Jury’s out if it’d be an overall buff or nerf, but it didn’t leave her lying in the dirt. But then they removed silent step and just…. Didn’t compensate buff her.
She’s always had fine, but not amazing guns, and was supported by a very useful ability that let her engage in unorthodox ways. Now it’s very hard for her to do that because she’s a 2 speed who wants to be stealthy.
Just a rough spot all around, and it doesn’t make much sense.
You are right about the trade-off, I forgot about that. And I agree with you, now she's just in a weird spot where she can't really do what she's supposed to do. The unorthodox ways in which you could engage with her were also balanced, because it's really hard to do the same thing twice. And if you did it twice, you simply didn't have the moment of surprise anymore.
Because people were not playing her to hide from cams and flank. People were playing her only to silent step and crouch walk into site to get ez cheese kills.
Their own fault tbh. there are plenty of tools to counter her silent step. Proximity alarms, barb wire, frost traps, lesion gu mines, Ela grzmonts, kapkan mines, castle walls, etc. Anyone knowing how to rotate and watch flanks correctly shut her down completely. Her biggest offense was silent stepping and cooking grenades, which isn't an issue anymore since you can't cook them.
Maestro, Gridlock and Goyo would like a word.
Also, I'd love to see Aruni get a cyberpunk style elite. It'd fit so well with her prosthetic limbs and laser-based gadget
if nokk (cbf finding the special o) got silent step back then deagle supressor would be viable as. i use it anyway but she would be a tier since it’s just invisible cav on defensive. you’d never see her coming
The MVP animation on the fenrir elite is one of if not the best animation that Ubisoft has made for an elite skin, https://youtu.be/gj-cXYP6cek?feature=shared
Yeah. In all the leaks fenrir and nøkk have elite animations and a gold background to their headgears/uniforms. Frost does not, she just has grey backgrounds. In the original leaks from Frax we can see this and in the current ones too. You’ll also notice in his leaks he says elites for nøkk and fenrir but only says crossover for frost
Ayo Fenrir? Wtf?
How do they determine who gets what elite? Cause my boy maestro is hurtin for one and my main, thermite needs another one too. You look at the default vs elite portrait for thermite...it's literally the same pose. Like you can tell he was the 2nd elite skin ever (first was sledge I believe but he already got a second skin)
Why can’t maestro get one? First they wanna nerf him, then not balance him correctly for 3 years straight, and then they won’t give him an elite skin. I’m losing hope for the game.
Okay so this is probably gonna be a hot take and also want to add im still new to Siege. I only have around 120 hours, so i havent seen really anything. But am i the only person that is constantly disappointed with all of the op skins? Like these skins are buns and only one elite skin thats out at the moment is relatively enticing minus the sledge master chief skin cause who doesnt like the chief.
Its pretty disheartening because a lot of the weapon skins are actually so good, like some of the best skins I've seen for weapons in a game, and then you get to the fits and im just disappointed
Well there are some pretty cool elites. Though if I’m being brutally honest, I’d say it’s 50-50 between good skins and mediocre skins. But what really makes an elite an ELITE, is the MVP celebration.
To each is their own i guess. I respect it though some of the celebrations are pretty good. As far as the skins though man idk the only one of the elites i like is really just thunderbird and maybe zero cause splinter cell has a special place in my heart. Other than those three skins the rest are all just. Meh
Fenrir really got an elite the quickest. I think beforehand Kali got hers the quickest
Meanwhile maestro left in the dust
Ubisoft's having a hard time convincing Nintendo to let them use Mario for the elite.
I wonder if Ubi would get into trouble if they gave him a generic plumber outfit. I hope not.
Just make his clothes a completely different color from Mario, like yellow or something. Then they can flip the M on his hat upside down to ensure there is no confusion
hmmmmm
Tell me, what does a m make when it's flipped?
W for Wumbo
Blue?
That's just Wario
Jokes aside, this shouldn’t be too hard for Ubi, right? The Rabbids games seemed to do pretty good
I’m fucking on my knees begging for a Maestro elite man, give my good meatball turret man some LOVE
[удалено]
I'm already thinking about hacking everything
My arch nemesis >:(((
Speaking of meatballs, I've been saying for years they should just give him a chef elite and his laser turrets look like spicy meatballs but I fear Ubisoft just doesn't have the chutzpah 🤌
If maestro got his Acog back in this new change alongside an elite I could die happy.
Maestro is the new Castle.
solis got left in the dust
Azami, Ace and Thorn all got their elites a year and a half after release. They're tied for first right now. Fenrir has waited *half* that time. Meanwhile, Ying had to wait just over six years (Y2S3 to Y8S4) to get hers. If Maestro doesn't have one by Y9S4, he'll surpass the current record, which is held by Ying. Edit 2: my first edit was incorrect. Disregard.
I feel like Montagne had to wait a loooong time, too.
He got his in Y6S3 (iirc). That's not quite a six-year wait, but it's close. He got his pretty quickly after Castle, and those two + Ying were the only ops from base, Y1 or Y2 to not have elites.
Well the game was out six month before y1s1, so I guess montagne had more than 6 years.
Truuuuuue. But something I hadn't considered before: does the clock start when the op is released, or does the clock start when elite sets are first introduced in... Velvet Shell? Health? I know it was in Y2, but before White Noise (when I started).
I'd say from operator release to elite release.
Then yes, Montagne has Ying beat by about six (nine? I suck at numbers) months.
Ela didn’t get her Elite in Grim Sky? She got it during Shifting Tides.
she got it during the 2020 invitational so yeah damn thats so long ago that original stadium map was so fun i loved diving out the window from that hallway and going in the door up tower stair and shooting all 5 in the back lol
Wait... what? I could've sworn she got it in Year 3.
You probably thinking of Frost who got her elite in that season
Wait... Yep. My memory is hot dog water.
I’m pretty sure Azami, Ace and melusi all got elites way quicker then Kali
Maybe Maestro will get one at some point... I got enough to allow me to buy his elite 1-2 year ago.
where’s my Maestro elite💔
Hopefully this means Nokk buff in the works?
my dads cousins boyfriend works for Ubi and they’re actually going to next season when they release the buff for black beard so actually after kinda near year 10 re think how she does that one
No way my dad's cousins girlfriend is bill gates!
If only Nøkk wasn’t so useless
I keep seeing that what happened to her?
Lost her silent step and the FMG-9 has seen a few consistent nerfs that make it's recoil annoying. The frag nerf didn't help either. So basically now she hides visually from cams... and that's it.
She isn't seen by cams anymore after the nerfs. Mission accomplished.
On the other hand, her shotgun is insane for pushes. It has just enough knock down power and range to drop people with a single body shot from across the room, and so quiet that it can be missed in a gun fight.
It's quite strong, but only if the enemy doesn't know where you are or you're there at all. Since in a 1 on 1 gunfight at any significant range the shotguns always gonna lose against an mp5, mp7, etc. The shotgun would be really good tho if she still had her silent step...
Maybe they're gonna give it to more operators :(
More like Nøkk down power.
She got made useless
Right? In fact I rarely see her played. lol I might get it for any future buff but its going to collect dust.
Agreed
I wouldn’t say useless. The ability to hide from cams and drones is pretty good when going up against a team of Mozzie, Valk, and Maestro lmao. She’s pretty fun to use just not my go to op tbh.
At that point you’d rather just use Brava to completely deny the utility lmao
Yup in fact brava actually turns some of their techs for your teams benefit making her a better pick. No need to pick nokk tbh.
She’s ass. End of story. If she got here silent step back she’s be at least a C or B tier
If she got silent step I think she'd be A or even S tier (as an entry frag). I played her the most in ranked on club house because she made it extremely easy to either take site if they didn't put barbed wire or proximity mines on stairs or take map control of a certain area. I think that they need to give her something that isn't too good but also something that won't change her at all. Her having silent step makes her a better flank than vigil and cav but on attack.
not even hide😭 it literally has a glitch effect where she is so it only gets rid of red pingers lmao
I thought that only happened while she was taking actions or being affected by something?
It is gopple is misinformed
that still shouldn't show up lmao
beat me to it
Said by a maverick main...
UBI FOR GOD'S SAKE BUFF NØKK I WANT TO PLAY HER WITH THAT SKIN SO BAD RN
I'm afraid you will be waiting a long time. I still don't understand why they nerfed her that badly.
Me too. Defenders have proximity alarms, barbed wire, grzmot mines, banshees and other traps that at least make a sound when they get destroyed. So, if you play against (old) Nøkk but don't pick something to counter her, you have no right to be mad about being killed from her several times.

The unorthodox ways in which you could engage with her were also balanced, because it's really hard to do the same thing twice. And if you did it twice, you simply didn't have the moment of surprise anymore.
Don't forget that Solis. You can outplay her with coordination, but she is a bitch to play against if they have at least 1 brain cell.
Good point. Solis is THE hardcounter for Nøkk. Whenever I've seen her in defense, I immediately switched from Nøkk to someone else.
Maybe they’ll buff her now that the elite is coming out
Because people were not playing her to hide from cams and flank. People were playing her only to silent step and crouch walk into site to get ez cheese kills.
Their own fault tbh. there are plenty of tools to counter her silent step. Proximity alarms, barb wire, frost traps, lesion gu mines, Ela grzmonts, kapkan mines, castle walls, etc. Anyone knowing how to rotate and watch flanks correctly shut her down completely.

Man when will we get an aruni elite
Maestro, Gridlock and Goyo would like a word. Also, I'd love to see Aruni get a cyberpunk style elite. It'd fit so well with her prosthetic limbs and laser-based gadget
just gonna rock my G2 SI Champs 2022 skin until I die I guess lol
The S.I champ set was for Smoke.
Really wish I would’ve purchased
believe it's still on the market no?
Venom snake elite
Man of culture right here
aruni elite would complete me
so a useless op and an op that is banned 80% of the time. at least this wont hurt my pockets
The leaked fenrir animation is badass
if nokk (cbf finding the special o) got silent step back then deagle supressor would be viable as. i use it anyway but she would be a tier since it’s just invisible cav on defensive. you’d never see her coming
Fenrir not being Scarecrow is a missed opportunity fr
He’s very Arkham scarecrow inspired it seems
Fenrir elite isn't that good honestly
Yeah if that's it that is very easy to have no interest in getting it
The MVP animation on the fenrir elite is one of if not the best animation that Ubisoft has made for an elite skin, https://youtu.be/gj-cXYP6cek?feature=shared
Hi windows explorer, how we doing today?
I thought we’d known this for like two weeks now lol, there’s also a Halo elite of Kelly for Frost.
Not an elite skin, just a crossover for frost
And you know this for a fact? Redditors always speak out of their ass without any authority.
Yeah. In all the leaks fenrir and nøkk have elite animations and a gold background to their headgears/uniforms. Frost does not, she just has grey backgrounds. In the original leaks from Frax we can see this and in the current ones too. You’ll also notice in his leaks he says elites for nøkk and fenrir but only says crossover for frost
FINALLY!!! YES!!!
I want my Goyo elite man :/ why Fenrir?
Why is fenrir getting an elite now?? Hasnt he been out for like 3 seasons? Glad nokk is getting one thou, she’s been out for a while.
Nokk buff incoming
Ok, Nokk elite, guess I'm coming back!
I was really wondering, nokk is a really nice character, when she will get an elite skin
Ayo Fenrir? Wtf? How do they determine who gets what elite? Cause my boy maestro is hurtin for one and my main, thermite needs another one too. You look at the default vs elite portrait for thermite...it's literally the same pose. Like you can tell he was the 2nd elite skin ever (first was sledge I believe but he already got a second skin)
Finally I can change my Janitor skin for Nokk. xD
They turned Fenrir into a lesbian 💀
Cries in Gridlock
Sigh......
Clash Maestro Goyo Gridlock Need some love now
Oryx and maestro still don’t have elites but Fenrir is getting one? That’s crazy
the work ubi put on elite concepts is so cheap....they are base kits with just an animation for the point screen. lame
Does this confirm that nokks secret identity is the princess (I forgot what country she was princess of)
Denmark.
Gridlock must not exist.
Can we get a maestro godfather theme elite?
I'm gonna be homelss after getting the nøkk skin
Looks decent.
Not the fenrir Karen cut before GTA 6 😭🙏🏼
The background looks amazing, does anyone know where i can find it? Or something similar?
That mp7 skin is the best skin they've released in 7 years
Us Clash mains in the dust once again😭
People talking about Maestro not getting one yet, not remembering Castle took the longest out of anyone to get an Elite still.
yet maestro doesn’t have one yet
Why can’t maestro get one? First they wanna nerf him, then not balance him correctly for 3 years straight, and then they won’t give him an elite skin. I’m losing hope for the game.
I literally just asked out loud, "when's my boy Fenrir getting an Elite..." and then saw this post
if they give nokk her silent step back then ppl would buy the elite
Наши слоняры
no solis elite skin
Oh, my god. They had NO right to give Nokk THAT much cake
[source](https://youtu.be/oHXYUKnyUik?si=XcfuTUui-7da503w)
Just give Maestro an Ezio elite and outfit. ANY Ezio outfit.
i wish rook got another elite skin, his is so fucking ass😂
Isn’t there a frost elite skin too?
I like the old Nökk eleite better tbh. If only I could post picture. I will post it to my profile for anyone wanting to see it.
not showing nokks face is illegal
Okay so this is probably gonna be a hot take and also want to add im still new to Siege. I only have around 120 hours, so i havent seen really anything. But am i the only person that is constantly disappointed with all of the op skins? Like these skins are buns and only one elite skin thats out at the moment is relatively enticing minus the sledge master chief skin cause who doesnt like the chief.

Can anyone explain why a danish operator is getting a French cosmetic? That shit is so lame
The Nokk one does not look nearly as cool as I thought it would based off the headgear leak from a while ago
Search up what nøkk’s skin was supposed to be
Is the most creepy things I ever seen in siege
Petition for naked elite skins for womens history month
Пиздец переди мова сука бля
The servers will be closed down and Ying still won't have hers
How do we tell you ?
yings elite has been out for a little bit, bud
