Gadget
  • Deployable ShieldNotJoeyBlack's pick
  • Observation Blocker
  • SINOOS: Suppressor on Nokk for stealth, but he says the recoil stays poor either way. Flash hider is the alternative; a compensator does not help.
  • NotJoeyBlack: I think observation blockers are terrible, so I'm always going to run the deployable shield.

Primary and attachments: NotJoeyBlack's pick. The secondary list is every option the game gives Denari; nobody we read picks between them.

Matchups

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.

Who counters Denari
  • RauoraATTMEDIUM

    The T.R.I.P. Connector needs two devices in line of sight of each other to string a laser. A D.O.M. panel dropped between them cuts the line, and the web falls apart without anyone entering the room.

  • ThermiteATTSOFT

    The T.R.I.P. Connector webs a room's known entrances, and a hard breach puts an Attacker through a wall the lasers do not span.

Who Denari counters
  • YingATTMEDIUM

    A Candela buys the seconds to run into a room blind, and the T.R.I.P. Connector's answer is a laser web that does not need to be seen to be walked into.

  • RamATTSOFT

    The BU-GI Auto Breacher opens a path and the team follows it, and Denari's web is in the room on the other side of whatever it opened.

FAQ

Common questions

Is Denari an Attacker or Defender?

Denari 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 Denari?

NotJoeyBlack 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 Denari 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.
