Ubisoft revealed the new season of Rainbow Six Siege, Operation North Star, during the finals of Six Invitational 2021. The new operation is featuring new balancing changes on operators and gadgets.

Besides having lots of changes in the game, North Star also featuring the newest attacker operator, Thunderbird, who has the Kona Station gadget that has the ability of healing allies in its radius.

However, the new operation brings lots of questions and criticism alongside the new changes. One of the most controversial changes was the ability to use drones even after the death throughout the round.

After Ubisoft decided to revert the changes, all eyes were stuck on the new operator, Thunderbird. There were lots of people who think that the new operator is overpowered due to her gadget, utility, and weapons combined.

Yesterday, Twitch streamer, content creator, and former Rainbow Six Siege streamer George “KingGeorge” Kassa shared his opinion about Thunderbird by sharing a new post on his official Twitter account.

According to KingGeorge, every new operator should be a bit overpowered before the release of the new season because people won’t find any content if the new operator would be a standard pick.

With being that said, KingGeorge also mentioned they will always get a huge nerf before making it to the live servers anyways. Furthermore, he pointed out that Thunderbird is too strong right now and said that he would nerf her gadget to make her balanced.

Here is what KingGeorge said:

“Hot take new ops should be a little OP. If an operator isn’t, people say there is no new content in a season. Plus they generally nerf them to the right level before the next season. Thunderbird is a bit too strong, I would probably make the cooldown longer + only heal for 20hp.”
