How to Set Up A Site in Rainbow Six Siege 

I’m a returning player and it’s been so hard to relearn all of the maps and set ups so I’d honestly love a refreshing map series for players like me. I’m sure I’m not the only returning player in the new season, loved the video btw

- Prep phase ends - Just finished making 2 rotates, reinforcing 4 walls, and putting down 4 jammers - “6 reinforcements remaining”

Even as a siege vet, this was useful. I think in particular, more of stuff like the last part in Consulate would be useful, particularly for new players: Why do we reinforce some walls and blow open others? what's the purpose of a rotate? vault rotate (I actually didn't know that one), foot holes, head holes.

Step 1: afk prep phase Step 2: “fuck it we ball”

The community needs this kind of content. Thanks!

I would really like to see things like roaming guides and maybe even match commentary explaining what decisions you have to make when roaming/breaching/entry fragging

I have nearly 1000 hours on siege, and have been making feet holes for ages, because I saw them done by players better than me, though never understood what they were for. I thought at first it was for someone to play prone and wait for attackers, but that doesn't make sense, that mobility restriction is death. Then, for years, thought it was for audio queues, because you can hear easier through air than through walls. TIL that it's for angles such as this. Thank you, Gregor

very helpful video, I have my IRLs coming back to the game this season or just starting without that much knowledge of site setup, gonna send this to them and hopefully it helps them out ❤

I'd love a breakdown of nighthaven labs. Griefdrums use to take new maps and break them down and show off different angles and ways to enter. I miss those especially with new maps. I enjoyed your one for emerald plains and looking for a nighthaven labs breakdown

Yay more map content 👏 Don't play as much as I used to so insight is always helpful

With the coming of the new year, comes potential for innovation. Innovation comes from new ideas such a channel focus shift from FPS to Puzzle games. I implore you to eventually play and experiment with the game Bad Rats:The Rats Revenge. Gabe Newell is quoted on saying that he hand picked the game to be one of the first games on Steam due to "...the charismatic rodents and unique puzzle design."

The exact video I was looking for, thank you.

Gregor is the Kahn Academy of R6

Get 4 more buddies (I volunteer) and do a per map, per site. full site setup for "default" setups. each op takes care of specific part of the setup, and then watch the whole thing through spectator mode and show who is setting up what, then give a brief "This wall protects this, this player is going to roam hear to prevent X, this hole allows this angle, this gadget stops Y from happening, Operator Z is SUPER important to have because of this". Then just release a video per map. The cumulative knowledge of all the setups should give understanding to people looking to learn. just going over 1 setup on 1 map, with 1 example play, with 1 player running around isn't that helpful. Then after it's all done, get 5 more buddies and do an Attacker version vs the "default" setup, recommend ops and "attack paths" to take the site.

Love to see more map content!

Please do more set up content! It's one of my favorite aspects of the game!

never stop making content please. The pro league videos are great, everything is great. love these kinds of general informatinal videos i watch these while i play sometimes and see what i can apply while im playing. Definately raising my seige iq

I genuinely love to see videos like this, and I wish a lot of this stuff was more commonly known by the general player base. I can't even count the amount of times I've been stuck in a losing situation and was forced into a corner due to poor site setup and the lack of map control. I wish Ubisoft made a bit of an attemp to promote educational videos about in-game strategies, tactics and general tips to increase the overall average player skill.

Thanks alot just now getting into siege helps alot

I honestly enjoy seeing content like this! Not sure if it's already in the pipeline, but it would be great to see a Nighthaven Labs breakdown. It seems like a decent map but admittedly I still don't know it very well.

I love watching these videos even though I'm not actively playing Siege anymore

This gonna be one of those videos that are the highlight of the channel

Thanks for the tips

Thanks for this.

My stack really struggles with where the rotates go and why you reinforce some walls for cover and put the rotates in specific locations. (they like to put the rotate on coastline:hooka-billiards far from the double window in billiards but don't get why you should have a small rotate on the side close to the window.) I've had trouble explaining the thought process for how to set up site and if you could make a video that has that sort of info I think it would help us lots.

Good vid, love to examine closer foot holes and head holes.

best tac shooter youtuber!

thank you very much :)

Who's with me on Gregor making more Map Knowledge focused videos like this one? I thought this was great and precisely what I'm looking for.

I would love a guide of what to do when the wall eventually does get opened!

My IQ has been raised

I don’t know whether to thank you or to curse you, because your videos are what got me to get back into Siege recently.

im new and i dont know what to barricade since teammates kill me if i barricade wrong wall so this was very helpful to me!

I’d love to see a site setup video for each map. I feel like I’m never sure what to do with each different site

please do more of these😊

Thank you for acknowledging the functionality of a vault rotate! Everyone just wants to spring through every rotate! The amount of times I'm setting up on hookah as smoke on coastline and I'm shotgunning the vault rotate and someone with impacts is like "here, let me help you out with that" and puts a giant full body whole in the wall, and I'm like "BRO WHAADAFUQQQ?!?! Now I can't play right there" is infuriating! Honest intentions of helping but the amount of ignorance is deflating. Wish I was back to being an ignorant silver sometimes

I know map content does usually not as well, but if you can throw one in between when possible it would be very much appreciated! I am not a new player so this video is not something I benefit from as much, a set up of Nighthaven labs would be better for me personally. But tbh I just eat up all the content you share because it's just so good haha. Perhaps an explanation as to why extending beyond site could be of great use to many players, especially if it comes with examples

I'd love if you did videos on attack defaults for each map, so more players would actually do something on attack instead of either rushing or wasting time not doing anything.

can you make site setup guide for nighthaven lab? that map is still new and lot of people (including me) didnt know how to do site setup

as a brand new player of roughly 3 weeks, i have absolutely no idea how to set up sites so i completely avoid playing mute and smoke, i wish there was an easy way to learn the maps and their setups.

as a doc main, i bring the bailiff and make rotates but if i see a mute or someone who can make rotates i’ll run and grab hatch

first watched this thinking itll help me be better at setting up site. ended up feeling more anxiety about reinforcing walls and making rotates now cuz i dont wanna step on other players toes. and 80% of the time no one does hatches so me the anchor has to go do em ;-;

i think a return of the old how to site setup on (insert map here) would be cool

Can i have a request? Can you do this to all ranked map? It's gonna be really good and helpful for us new players, thanks! Oh and also ur video is so good, i went to emerald 1 in just one week, thanks to ur guide bro

I wanna see more

Go over the don’ts of site setup

I don’t even play siege (played a bit with buddies for a lil bit but hardly) and I don’t care about this game but his voice is just suited for videos and I enjoy them regardless

Nice

I wish you had a video on what NOT to reinforce. For all maps. So noobs can learn how to not ruin rounds.

Hey, can someone tell me if it’s still viable to make a whole in the wall then reinforce it ? (there was a bug where you could hear more clearly what’s happening on the other side of the wall)

show how to setup nighthaven labs

Rule #1 Communication

3:26 would you want to put the sheild back more like you did or would you want to put it right along with the wall?

i played just for shits n giggles like 300 or 600 hours something ridiculous without once learning defence and attacking strategies or rule of thumb since i was 12 playing at 30FPS but lowkey thinking about hopping back in

You mentioned the old utility meta, what happened / were the changes that made it so we transitioned to what we have nowadays?

Gregor for prez at R6

Would you ever make a new account and level it up with no ops to make a recruit in ranked video?

I’m just always kind of afraid that I’m going to end up doing the wrong thing and getting somebody annoyed because I simply don’t have the gamesense yet

how do you get that Christmas weapon skin?

Does it matter whether wall rotations are crouch-height vs sprint-height?

Probably the best set up is the one we made along the way

Crouch hole vs Vault hole, what works best for certain sites?

which shotgun skin is that

Any attacking strats? Cannot stand attacking in siege

I’ve played siege for 5 years. I’ll just admit, I don’t know how to play consulate. I don’t dislike the map, I just struggle to know how to play it. I am good as Emerald Planes, and I’m learning the new map. But Consulate I just am not good at because I don’t know how to go about it as a solo queuing player. I can hard breach garage and defend garage as a kaid, bandit, mirra, or Asami. But the rest of the map, I don’t even know where to begin as it plays so different to other maps.

I am no longer stupid on Bank and Clubhouse

I feel like I am being called out for asking why people make crouch holes instead of walking holes on yesterday's short

Low-key you should do some irl content

You have twitch? Gregor?

make a video discussing spawn peaking.

Consider my IQ raised

how do you have 30 minutes when playing alone

People hate new maps so if you can please make videos on site set up that go deep into the new maps and maps that people tend to hate

hi daddy

I can never tell who these videos are for. New/inexperienced players? Surely it can’t be, because you unironically recommend to take long range gunfights with the smg11. Your videos are hit and miss with me and that’s okay, (I enjoyed the shotgun rating) but for all things holy please make them more consumable. I just watched an 8 minute nothing burger because I didn’t think this video would be so oriented towards new players.

Respect your channel.. But your tactical thought process is very typical and elementary... Need to learn to think out of the Box man... aside from that.. good channel Macgyver.SORT

Nice vid
