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.
Skopos can only operate one Pantheon Shell at a time, and X-Kairos pellets are placed and then detonated from a floor above, outside both of them.
Skopos can only run one Pantheon Shell at a time and loses both if one dies. A Replicator in the other room pulls her to the wrong shell and costs her nothing to kill.
Skopos' second Pantheon Shell is an observation tool watching a fixed sightline, and a bulletproof D.O.M. panel closes that sightline from a distance.
A Shock Drone dart clears an ordinary camera. Skopos' second Pantheon Shell is an observation tool behind a reinforced shield, so the drone reaches it and cannot do anything to it.
Deimos reveals his own location the moment he starts tracking, and Skopos is watching two rooms at once, so the reveal lands wherever she happens to be.
Common questions

Skopós 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 Skopós?
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 Skopós 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.
