AruniLoadout and Counters
What named creators run on Aruni, and every option the game allows. Plus the gadget interactions that decide the matchup.

- Bulletproof cameraRasco100 says this
- NotJoeyBlack: Basically no recoil, and an ACOG on defence is worth taking.
- SINOOS: Horizontal because Aruni is a one speed.
- NotJoeyBlack: I would personally run barbed wire.
- Rasco100: Angled muzzle on the pistol, and the BP.
Primary and attachments: NotJoeyBlack and Rasco100's pick.

Counters
Rainbow Six counters are gadget interactions, rules of the game rather than statistics, so every pairing here comes from the two operators' own kit pages: the mechanism from whoever wins it, the gadget it beats from whoever brings it.
A Surya Gate covers one door or window, and an Exothermic Charge opens a reinforced wall that has no gate on it, so Aruni's denial is watching the wrong hole.
Amaru's Garra Hook pulls her through a window fast enough to kick whoever is behind it, and a Surya Gate on that window detects anything moving through and burns it, so the entry she is built on is the entry it covers.
Common questions
Is Aruni an Attacker or Defender?
Aruni is a Defender in Rainbow Six Siege.
Where do these counters come from?
Rainbow Six's counters are mostly deterministic gadget interactions, rules of the game rather than statistics, so we state them from the two operators' own kit pages with no telemetry needed. A pairing is only written where the winning operator's page names the mechanism, which is why plenty of operators here carry none. Statistical data is based on external APIs and publicly available information. It may differ from official data.
What is the best loadout for Aruni?
NotJoeyBlack, Rasco100 and SINOOS publish loadout picks under their own name, and this page credits each of them rather than averaging them into a single answer. We measure nothing ourselves. The list of what Aruni can equip is the game's own, and is separate from anyone's opinion about it. Statistical data is based on external APIs and publicly available information. It may differ from official data.
