Rainbow Six Siege is a videogame that received positive comments for its very realistic game mode, which is booming in the eSport and that is slowly growing and with a large downloadable content.

The mechanics of the game consist of five people per team, where each character carries weapons and unique abilities. It is a very tactical video game so it requires constant communication between the whole team, the goal of the game is to attack or defend with different game modes such as: Training, Hunting the terrorist, Hostage, Bomb, Secure the area.

In two types of casual games of three rounds and even four rounds, but in this game mode is matched depending on the rank of opponents with a higher difficulty.

Thatcher knows the danger of being too dependent on technology. It uses an EMP grenade that deactivates all the electronic components in its radius of explosion to level the playing field.

Born into a family of dockers, Baker enlisted for active military service on his eighteenth birthday. A veteran of three wars, Baker was the oldest SAS operative on active duty until he was recruited by Rainbow.

Baker is very observant, calculating and decisive. While his behavior may denote traces of impatient cynicism, Baker has a deep sense of ethical responsibility. It is recommended to assign to Baker junior operators with strong moral conviction, to whom they can serve as a mentor.

Baker's exemplary performance, both on and off the battlefield, during two politically charged conflicts made him a natural candidate for VIP protection duty. He is very skilled in close combat, and is a world-class expert in anti-electronics operations.

Thatcher is the main enemy of any operator where his skills are the use of electronic devices, because Thatcher is equipped with 3 electromagnetic pulse grenades called "EG MKO-EMP" that can deactivate any electronic device in a certain area. The devices to deactivate are the following; Smoke gas grenades, Mute inhibitors, Kapkan traps, Jäger ADS, Bandit batteries, Valkyrie chambers, Gu Lesion mines, Ela Grzmot mines, C4 explosives, Surveillance cameras without affecting the attacking devices.

One of the things I like most about SAS operators is the variety of their weapons, as they can be equipped with sniper, assault rifle or shotgun in their main weapon. On this occasion Thatcher can equip with the HK33 an assault rifle that for me is a 5.56mm sniper made by Heckler & Koch GmbH (HK) in the 60s. This AR33 is a weapon that causes a lot of damage with a strong enough recoil , but in short bursts easy to control with a fast firing speed, however, its only point against is the ability being 25 shots. This weapon can be equipped with accessories of barrel, sights, grip and laser.

One of the best assault rifles in Rainbow Six Siege for medium and long range combat, available for all SAS operations team, this weapon has a manageable recoil and a balanced damage for a medium to long range combat, however, its high fire rate gives the weapon great effectiveness in short-range combat with a 30-shot magazine. This weapon can be equipped with accessories of barrel, sights, grip and laser.

It is a bomb action shotgun, with very good damage in a medium range combat and an acceptable recoil for a shotgun due to its pump cycle that is fast with a 7 shot magazine. This weapon can be equipped with sights and laser accessories.

Compared to Sledge he has the SMG-11 which is much better Thatcher if he needs to use this gun, his secondary weapon is a decent and versatile semiautomatic pistol, which can kill enemies with few shots thanks to his damage with a high rate for a gun and a 15-shot magazine. This gun can be equipped with barrel and laser accessories.

I must say first that I really liked that they gave this ability to Thermite since placing his device to destroy reinforced walls was an easy target for enemies. It is a defensive device but they use the attack characters in Rainbow Six Siege in order to prevent surprises. It is an antipersonnel mine that works with laser proximity sensors up to a distance of 3 meters.

It is a device detonated at a distance with the purpose of destroying unreinforced walls, windows, doors and unreinforced floors. It is also used to destroy floors and shoot through it, you must be aware that if the zone is with inhibitor can not be activated. Its capacity is 3 per operator.

The use of Thatcher in the attacking team is extremely important and strategic since its electromagnetic pulse grenade is complemented with other attackers such as; Termite in the case that the defending team is Mute with its inhibitors or Bandit with its batteries in the reinforced walls. I would say that it is the most important operator in such cases, so you should be cautious and not die before using your skill.

While communication is essential in Rainbow Six with Thatcher it is even more important not to waste your pulse grenades and miss the opportunity to destroy the reinforced walls or destroy devices that may affect the attack or the elimination of an ally.

A point in favor of the entire SAS team are their weapons, being powerful weapons with high rate of fire. Unfortunately the AR33 has a very low capacity of 25 shots and that makes the weapon not a viable option as it can run out of bullets in an instant due to its high firing rate.

Thatcher must be complemented with other operators to take advantage of their special ability, their game mechanics are very important for the team since they should not die until they use their skills otherwise the incapacitation of the defending team's technology is wasted, which decreases the opportunities to win the round.

Its movement speed and armor are balanced.
Your EMP grenade destroys or deactivates enemy electronic device numbers.
Your EMP grenade does not affect allied devices.
Equipped with weapons with high firing rate.
I love the option of being able to choose between Claymore or Demolition Charge.

Little capacity of your EMP grenades.
A lot of coordination with the allies.
He must not be the first to die.
I do not like his mechanics to throw the EMP grenade.

Your EMP Granada has the Union flag painted on top, the flag of the United Kingdom.
Thatcher's name may be a reference to Margaret Thatcher, the British prime minister during the siege of the Iranian embassy in 1980, which, according to Thatcher's biographical notes, he was part of.
Thatcher's mask is that of an SF10, a variant of the Special Forces of the S10 NBC respirator that was used by the SAS in the 1980s. Its body armor is that of a modified SAS pigskin vest.
Thatcher has a stiletto sheet attached to her left sleeve, which can be seen using her operator's video.
In the Alpha Closed version of the game, the rifle was designated as the NATO K33.
The name, AR33, is simply a compilation of Assault Rifle 33.
The AR33 in the game is modeled after the variant HK33A2.
The rifle is modeled with a round magazine of 30 and incorrectly feeds 25 rounds of said magazine.

To finish, I recommend not playing with Thatcher aggressively because if he dies and has not yet used his EMP grenades the attacking team loses opportunities to win must be very patient when using this operator.
