The MOST Banned Operator In Siege History..... 

The amusing part is when on the rare occasions Jackal does not get banned teams still dont pick him...

I remember I had a friend who once complained that operators like Caveria and Alibi were too powerful because of their roaming potential. It's not that those operators are too strong, it's that people never play Jackal. His kit is specifically designed to keep roamers in check. And now that Lion has been reworked, the reason to ban Jackal is purely out of spite from new/roamer players. I unfortunately don't think Jackal is changing anytime soon, but I hope that players realize that Jackal isn't broken good nor broken bad. He's designed to fit a purpose and he does that purpose well.

I still don’t understand why people still ban Jackal this season

I remember when Jackal,Blitz,echo, and Cav were the 4 original go to bans. They were broken back then and a nightmare when you didn’t know how to deal with them.

The clip at 2:11 reminded me of Ela's DBNO concussion and in turn Zofia's DBNO revive, makes me miss when Ubi experimented like that and made operators truly and UNIQUELY special. Not just Rooks armour having self res, but stuff like the running animations for Warden and Nokk, stuff thats not only incredibly creative but also made the operators unique and fun.

The thing is that jackal's isn't particularly overpowered but the way he is able to track defenders is something that is pretty much uncountable.

While solis needs a nerf, I’ve found solis countering a number of the strongest intel attackers such as lion, jackal, doke, iq, and even nokk. Its interesting how the game changes. I love playing cat and mouse with jackal. It adds a lot to this tdm meta. Nothing is better than outplaying a a team that leans on a jackal clear.

Ive been maining Jackal since his release and ever since, I'd say im pretty qualified to say your Jackal lore is spot on

You should review operator concepts and give your opinion on how they would play into the meta

Its crazy how long I actually stopped playing siege for, I started early 2016 (March if I remember correctly) and stopped playing December of 2017 which was a month after White Noise came out. I then came back in March of 2020 which was when Iana and Oryx released. I stopped playing before the next season, and I came back again just recently because of Jynxzi. This video brought back some memories man.

Its not about him being too op, its just that lower elos dont know what to ban so they just ban jackal

from both sides since their release the most banned ops are Jackal and Clash, that's the end of video. But Its a good video that shows bans per operations.

Bro I remember playing siege on Xbox one when BlackBeard was a Mega Ban bro those days were golden ❤❤

That level of siege was so much fun, when you got jackaled and loomed you basically just popped a hatch or tried to run, it was so much fun

I remember being a jackal main when I started playing the game. He’s still op asf and literally has only 1 counter. I swear I haven’t played him in like 4 months

Great video as a person who hates to play the game right now i prefer to watch videos like this to review history well; done

I actually think added demos to siege helped out jackle cause now there are 2 rome clearers that are annoying and you can’t ban both

Whenever I see Jackal playable, no one uses him, and when he is being used, the people playing him are terrible at him. Whenever I play Jackal, I try to utilize the smokes to block sightlines and try to save the last ping for post-plant. Sometimes I get those ballsy Stewie2k smoke rushers/spammers.

I used to be a jackal main until pick and ban was released. Its sad I loved playing him

Has a jackal main since his release, I can say that Jackal is a situational character but if use by and expert can be very dangerous. But like I said it has to be used by experts, in the hand of normal players is not that much of a threat.

I feel like a lot of operators are balanced and have other ops that do similar e.g. wamai and jaeger, kaid and bandit so since theres no outright op operator people ban ops who are more a nuisance or they dont feel like going up against, hence the clash bans too

The best way to describe it I feel is that all of the people who played when Jackle was busted told off of the new people coming into siege how broken he is which led to a never ending cycle of people just auto banning the “broken op”.

operation chimera gives me shivers finka lion jackal and 3 speed blitz

the worst part about jackal is that his footsteps last for 90 seconds

IMO the most common reason an operator is banned is either they are overpowered/good (people ban what the pros ban), or that they are annoying to play against even if they aren't that good and have counters (thinking of clash). After Jackal got reworked Doki became the better option 9/10 times, the only downside is her not having an AR.

Jackel is my favorite i used to play him when i played this game

There is a counter to Jackel: Cav

Used to be my most played op, I’ve forgotten how to play the guy cause you never get the chance

I was thinking Lion for a second because of the fact that at launch he was a 100% pick/ban no matter what. I kind of forget about Jackal all the time since he is always banned and never picked when he is not even banned.

I started banning glaz with my squad cause the ban phase is such a joke. It’s always jackal thatcher clash the last ban recently has been fenrir but before that it was always between kaid bandit and echo I just don’t understand why ban phase is still a thing when we are just banning the same ops every map banning thatcher on a map like coastline doesn’t make any sense unless your going for vip wall that’s the only time you’ll have any strong use to consider a ban which in my opinion is definitely wasted

The Jackal ban shows that the enemy team is sweaty roamers. If they ban Jackal, know what to expect.

in my time playing siege i havent played jackal once besides customs

4:11 bros on some else for this statement

0:55 ‘amazing set up’ and it’s the stinkiest Mira you’ve ever seen lol

I saw the title and my first thought was so we are talking about jackal right

5:16 to 5:27 - with all due respect, there's no arguing there, that is 100% why he was and still continues to be banned. I haven't played Siege in over 2 years but I've always despised Jackal and as soon as op bans came to Ranked I had no doubt he would be banned a lot!

His ability should only last for a few seconds maybe 3 to check if there footsteps around and scan them if there’s not than you miss out and his ability is gone

lion and dokk not getting banned over jackal is the best thing thats ever happened to me😭

I mostly banned Jackal because I found him somewhat annoying to deal with when he's an enemy and not useful when he's an ally. I'm relatively new to Siege (Like 3 years? I think?) so I've been playing with exclusively the current Jackal. He's not that strong, but man is it annoying to be randomly pinged. Does it completely screw me over? Absolutely not. Quite often I find Jackals are so excited to actually play their op for once that they focus too much on the prints and get blindsided. With the change of Unranked to Standard (My friends and I want to play ranked but we don't have the time), I've been seeing him more often and I guess that's good, because he's not really that oppressive, and its nice for people who've wanted to play him. I still get a little pissy about it though. I don't like being hunted by a man with a foot fetish.

I think it’s funny I’m seeing an increase in people banning Dokk over Jackal nowadays…

Haha I haven’t played siege in a real long time but still knew it was going to be jackal

Ubisoft please bring back night maps.

ahh the good ol days when we got 2 operators per release

I miss the old r6siege it just felt right don't got me wrong I love siege but operations like black ice skull rain dust line red crow white noise velvet shell it was just the best time to be a siege fan

Jackals gun is soooo good

6:15 , let's talk about Blackbeard back in the day

In my lobbies he’s been banned a lot less now

Jackle had 5 before 😮 are they nuts 😅

i feel like they need to release an attacker so overpowered that they are an instant ban so that then and thatcher get banned the nerf that new op

Thatcher was banned so much I stopped playing

Odd you didn't mention Fuze 😂 Fuze and jackal is banned 24/7 at the moment

I miss and also dont miss old lion lmao

In my games hes banned so much i like to trick the opponents waste the pick to ban him so i can ban any other ATK op

At 6:57 why is wamai on attacking 😂

This is what I would ban dokeabi jackel solis and fenrir or thatcher if it’s like chalet or kanal

I've been banning like Fuze or Blitz, and occasionally Osa, because I lowkey just wanna play Jackal myself. But he STILL GETS BANNED. It's honestly crazy

They should’ve removed the scanning ability years ago. Just leave the footprints and smart players will be powerful enough with footprints and their colors

Am i crazy for wanting jackals soft breaches back?

100% on the everyone is just used to banning him. He feels like the one opp you just are not going to get to play when getting on ranked

Jackal wouldn’t have to be so bannable if it wasn’t for him having the best gun in the game

I think it's because he's annoying in 1v1, he gives alot Intel, two great guns and shotty.

no offence but op bans where intrduced in to Pro League in Y3S2 and into ranked in Y4S2

To be honest i thought that the most banned operator was Thatcher.

I always see fuse, jackal, Kapcan, fenrir

what about kapkan I see him get always banned

Bans didn't come to ranked until warden and nokk dude. Parabellum is when bans came to proleague

if we are going on bans dokkebi and thatcher are way better

how is the event?

Can we get the fall of Sam Fisher next? From stealth icon to lowest winning attacker in siege. Make Sam Fisher stealthy again!

I dunno why people still ban thacher

Prediction: Jackal

Remember when thatcher was most banned 💀

I really wish jackal gets less banned. I really really reaaaallly like this concept of tracking someone, but after tracking someone they would just run away from the ping and bunker down with their teamates and random teamates doesn't really help especially with no comms.

Yeah update he still is banned every-time 😂

I’m fine with being tracked from a Cav interrogation but when it comes down to being tracked by a jackal I fucking hate it. At least Cavs doesn’t last as long and and it doesn’t show fuckin footprints. Automatic wall hacks and non stop foot tracking is so annoying especially if you get punished for walking around the map trying to set up for the attacking team incoming. Either remove jackal or rework his entire ability. Defenders should not be punished for walking around the map they are supposed to defend. Roaming is part of the defense and being tracked for roaming shouldn’t be a thing. Especially if it’s being tracked to your exact location by your own footprints. Edit: I also think that temporary wall hacks like lions wall hacks is fine since they nerfed it to shit but holy fuck wall hacks from jackal are so bad.

If the answer isn’t Jackal this video simply isn’t factual

they jusnt neeed to make it where he cant be banned. boom fixed

deimos is literally better than jackal at clearing roamers

Jackal isn’t even that bad to play against doki is so much more annoying in my opinion

I just wish there were no operator bans in ranked. It doesn't add anything useful to soloqueue.

I ban jackal for the same reason I ban clash. They’re some annoying ass mf to play against, even if they aren’t OP

Until siege adds something to counter his gadget, i'm going to perma ban him. Simple as that, every gadget has a counter except.... him.

Solis comin to take the throne

Honestly he’s just not fun to play against and feels cheap when you play him.

He just needs a counter

Beast can i 1v1 u

Jackal mains are consistently toxic in my experience

W

if you design an Operator frustrating enough that he is almost a top ban despite having a subpar performance you simply have a shit design and need to remove / rework it massively. Jackal obviously introduces a gameplay that is not enjoyable and has no counter-play. Deimos does it much better, you are both revealed to each other which fulfils the same role but better, fairer and more engaging.

❤

Villa best map? That map is awful

If you ban Jackal, you are not as good at the game as you think you are 🤷🏻‍♂️

Clash???? Lmao 8 out of 10 times clash will be banned. JacKAL ONLY LIKE 2FROM 10 TIMES.

Hes most banned on console lmao 😂

Villa🤢

I swear he’s not that good
