EVERY R6 Squad Explained! (Wolfguard, Ghosteyes, Redhammer, Viperstrike & Nighthaven) Lore

Ash: WE DONT USE HUMANS AS BAIT OR CASUALTIES! Also Ash: Ima join Redhammer.

Nighthaven = private military Wolf guard = humanitarian aid Ghost eyes = covert ops Viperstrike = adaptability and versatility Red hammer = AAAAAAAHHHHH

I’m surprised that Fuze is still with rainbow knowing how he complained about civilians and being careful so I thought he would join nighthaven and with the comic with him and Khalil really shows that he has loyalty to his team

A squad intended for undercover: exists Bandit: No, I don't think I will

Kapkan should've been on GhostEyes, he's the definition of hiding in the shadows and letting his technology do the talking, at least in the lore, anyway. When someone says the word "Rat", Kapkan pops into mind, I'm sure he's next to it in the dictionary, too - so I'm disappointed but intrigued to learn more behind Ubisoft's reasoning for this squad assignment, especially considering the fact that RedHammer is supposed to be about brute force, yet Kapkan is about patience, precision and causing people to have to "watch where they step", so to speak. Anyone else realised this, or am I thinking too much into it?

Im suprised bandit isnt in ghosteyes, he went undercover for multiple years in drug dealing and joining hells angels for spywork

Lion is in Wolfguard because he is very humanitarian and wants to save lives, he's just better at accepting when there is no other option. With him and Doc to contrast each other, they can get any clean job done well

While Viperstrike is considered a flex / versatile/ support unit, there seems to be a heavy focus on technology skilled operators They also interestingly seem to have an almost defensive positioning focus, with good area control This kinda highlights the 4 Rainbow squads into the Medic-Recon-Engineer-Assault quaternity seen in a lot of class-based shooters

I absolutely love what ubisoft is doing with the story...the squads is such a nice touch to these ops we know and love!

The moment I saw Wolfguard, I already knew Lion gonna be there. Lion lore pretty sad but one of the most heartwarming story. He become elite force and build that drone just for his son, so he can be the best father for him. No wonder his life mission is for humanitarian task

I'm so glad that they're finally building on siege's lore more consistently now. It feels like they're actually trying to make the storyline make sense and I kind of hope the White Masks make another appearance later on because it seems so silly to just outright get rid of them. I'm a really big fan of the (admittedly still small amount of) lore in r6 and I really appreciate the videos you make! Thanks so much for updating us and putting all the new info out there easily.

I’ve already started categorizing my operators with backgrounds for their respective squads, hella excited for Y8 reveal!

Your forgetting the first squad to ever exist in rainbow, the og’s that only consist of 5 or 10 members and that’s the recruit squad, they are so op that they were kicked out of the competition because they would wipe the floor in matters of seconds. In all seriousness though I wish recruit had lore something about them is intriguing.

I find it dumb that cav leads Ghosteyes instead of Sam Fisher. Sam is a great leader and does everything Cav does (lore wise) but better. He has years of experience in this stuff.

Blitz should be in redhammer

The lore is a great touch to the game but I wish they’d do something with these 5 squads. The game feels stuck in its place and these squads could bring additional content to the series but I’m sure it’ll add nothing more than a few cosmetics

Bro I love your content. Don't stop man.

Still, I can't believe Zofia in Ghosteyes squad... Her gadget so destructive and her gun are versatile... Hopefully she move to Redhammer squad AND KAPKAN in Redhammer? He literally hiding in shadow... Both should be swap :D

Thanks for this recap

I love how Wolfguard and Redhammer are kinda the night and the day.
