While it is a known fact that Ubisoft‘S Rainbow Six Mobile is strongly focused on team strategies, it is essential to learn the basics of the roles of Forwards and defenders. In this way, one would be able to understand the potential of a Operator. In this article, we will analyze the basics needed to be followed as a defender.
Basics of Defenders in Rainbow Six Mobile
The main role of a defender is to prevent attackers from successfully placing the defuser on bomb sites. This makes it a little easier for them as they don’t have to scout every area in search of enemies. However, defending sites is not child’s play, as attackers can break into rooms with the help of their own Gadget And Skills from unexpected entry points. To get better performance as a defender, follow the following basic tips which can improve your defense skills.
With a limited number of entry points to the bomb sites, the Defenders have an advantage over the Attackers as they are aware of all possible points they can enter. For this reason, Defenders are required to play super passively by simply holding the bomb sites and not moving one step further.
2. Use the barricades

Barricades prevent attackers from entering a room. Once a barricade is in place, attackers will have to break through it to enter, thus creating a lot of noise. This noise will be loud enough to alert any nearby defender. Defenders can also make a small hole by firing a bullet through the barricade and watch out for any enemies on the other side of the barricade.
3. Use reinforcements

Reinforcements are sheets that cannot be broken, except for some Skills. These sheets can make the walls breakable, not breakable, thus reducing the openings for the Attackers. With each defender having 2 reinforcements each, use it to prevent enemies from entering through breach walls.
4. Place the barbed wire near the entry points
Barbed wire forces attackers to get stuck in wires and walk slower than usual, causing noise to be created as you walk on them. This helps defenders pinpoint the attacker’s position. Place the barbed wire at nearby entry points, so that attackers are forced to expose their position by walking on them.
5. Set up traps in unexpected places
Traps can slow down or damage attackers and thus force them to back off. Protect barricades, reinforcements, and entry points with traps so attackers don’t have a chance to step further inside.
6. Take advantage of CCTV cameras
Defenders have exclusive access to CCTC cameras at various locations on the map. By accessing these cameras, defenders have a better chance of identifying enemy positions. CCTV cameras can be destroyed. So, take full advantage of them before the attackers spot them and take them down.
7. Have a Tower on your team
Rook is a defender that consists of more health than most other operators. Bring a Armor Pack composed of 5 armored plates. All squad members can use them to heal a little. A Tower will always come in handy, especially for new players. It would be a much needed resource for beginners, therefore, to always have a Tower to ensure a healthy team.
Final thoughts
Playing as a defender improves team coordination. Callouts define the strength of a defending team, so players should focus on the callouts and have them on point to make perfect plays and get those wins. While defending, players would also learn new places to keep and thus surprise attackers from unfamiliar places.
