Thatcher holds the crown for Rainbow Six: Siege’s king of support, as his unique gadget is an EMP grenade that can destroy or temporarily disable electronic gadgets that are within its vicinity. This can be extremely valuable when considering the sheer amount of gadgets that the defenders have access to.

Thatcher’s usefulness has left him with a ban rate of 50% in Platinum ranks and above, which should speak volumes to his value within the current meta. This is also because the only real alternative to Thatcher in terms of a similar styled gadget is Kali, who comes with some significant trade-offs in terms of her weapons.

When available, Thatcher is always a good operator to bring along and learning how to best support your teammates can give players that sweet rewarding feeling when it results in victory over the opposition.

A tip: a good Thatcher should always stick to their hard breaching teammate like glue to make sure they are able to use their gadgets to open up the objective's reinforced walls.
