Rainbow Six Siege is a videogame that received positive comments for its very realistic game mode, which is booming in the eSport and that little by little continues to grow 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.
Masaru Enatsu grew up in the city of Suginami, Tokyo. This densely populated city center houses several animation studios and technology companies. At age 16, Enatsu was already challenging the field of robotics by creating autonomous flying robots capable of search and rescue missions in extremely difficult conditions. Two years later, he won the International Air Robotics Competition (IARC) and is known to have exceeded the limits of what flying robots could achieve.

Enatsu was noticed by the Security Bureau of the National Police during his studies in Science and Engineering at the Metropolitan University of Tokyo. Encouraged to test his devices in the field, he entered the National Police Academy. A year later, he joined the Special Unit of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.
Efficient obsessed and dull, Enatsu is a talented officer despite his apathetic nature. Following the Nagoya hostage crisis in 2007, Enatsu decided to move to the Special Unit of the Police Department of Aichi Prefecture.

With a singular focus, Enatsu's direct communication style divides the harmony of the group. His tendency to discard feedback has prevented him from advancing to a higher rank.

Echo's special ability consists of a state-of-the-art drone that can be attached to the ceiling that transmits a video signal to the operator, whose drone uses an acoustic device to fire ultrasonic bursts that stuns or disorients the target at a given radius, this stunning makes the operator try to move lose more vision and balance, the only way to get rid of the disoriented is to lie on the floor and stay for a few seconds. The Yokai Drone of last generation has three shots that are recharged in a short period. In addition, the drone serves as an additional mobile camera.
The SuperNova is a pump action shotgun made by Benelli with its one-piece technopolymer frame, it has good recoil control better than other shotguns it is similar to the M1014 in terms of damage, although it is not the fastest, with a capacity of 7 bullets. This weapon can be equipped with accessories such as sights and lasers. I use this shotgun very little.
The MP5SD is an automatic machine gun similar to the MP5 model with very little difference, however, this weapon already comes with an integrated suppressor which reduces a bit its damage. A weapon with a high fire rate and a very manageable recoil is also one of the few weapons in the defending team that can be equipped with an ACOG sight. This weapon can be equipped with accessories like; sights, handles and laser.
Gun used by the SAT team, being honest I never use it not because the gun is not good I never have the need to use it has a capacity of 12 bullets a very good point for this gun. This weapon can be equipped with accessories such as silencer and laser.
This secondary weapon I love for being a perfect machine gun to change weapons instead of reloading in combat occasions. With a relatively high rate of fire and a very good gun control make it a perfect choice, it also has a capacity of 25 bullets. It can also be equipped with barrel, sight, grip and laser accessories. Before it could be placed with ACOG look, but in the updates decided to eliminate it.
The Barbed Wire is a device that can be equipped as a piece of initial equipment by many Defenders as an alternative to the Extend Shield.
When placed on the ground, it will reduce the movement of any Attacker or drones that enter it, but will not hinder the mobility of the Defenders. Attackers can destroy the barbed wire with melee attacks, making the area safe to walk.
The Deployable Shield is a high piece waist that the defending team must place if they want to win. When placed in a convenient area acts as an additional wall, protecting the person from bullets and explosives. It can also be used to obstruct entrances and exits, making it slower for Attackers to enter or exit and giving more protection than a normal Barricade.
Unfortunately, this protection works both ways. The shield blocks the field of vision for the one who put it or whoever is behind it, forcing them to stand up or lean to the side to see. While this will present a smaller target to the enemy, it will instantly kill by any bullet that actually hit.
This gameplay is my property on my channel YouTube
Echo is an operator a bit difficult to use since your drone must be constantly manipulated which requires a lot of time and in many cases, you are using a lot of drone that can flank and kill you. The vision of your drone is not really good it is green but it does not offer night vision.
The Yokai device name has its good and bad things, one of the good things is that it stops the advance of the enemy team considerably affecting its ability to aim and move. In terms of mobility is an operator with high level of armor so it is very slow.
As for its weapons the MP5SD is a very good machine gun if we add the bearing 9 which is a balance of 2 weapons with high rate of fire, great control and acceptable firing capacity, also a great option is its P229 in terms of shooting power and capacity. I do not like his supernova shotgun, his rate of fire is very limited and it turns out to be a difficult weapon to control.
It is very difficult to give advice about Echo since the majority who remain using their device and forget about the rest and end up being surprised by the enemy, I would recommend using your drone in short time and moving it around the map either to help the enemy through communication and its ultrasonic blast, or waiting in a safe place for the enemy to use their ultrasonic blast and surprise the enemy taking advantage of being disoriented.
- Yokai has three charges that regenerate over time.
- Your drone serves as a mobile camera.
- Your drone can be attached to the roof.
- Yokai is equipped with a camouflage system that activates when it is in stationary mode.
- Ultrasonic bursts disorient the target if it is hit in any part of the body.
- Your drone can interrupt any action performed by the enemy.
- Being an electronic device, it can be deactivated per second by means of Thatcher's EMP grenades.
- Ultrasonic bursts can affect the allies and himself.
- Your drone moves just like a normal drone so it is easy to detect and destroy.
- Yokai is easy to detect.
- Yokai can only be manipulated by Echo.
- The name of Echo's Drone, Yokai, (Japanese: 妖怪) refers to the supernatural monsters in Japanese folklore.
- The code name Echo also refers to Yokai's ability to send ultrasonic bursts.
- Echo has the surname 田波 (Romaji: Tanami) written on her battledress.
- The upper part of Yokai is marked with the characters "重心 操作" and "速度 制," which mean "Gravity Control Center" and "Speed Control", respectively.
- Echo once collaborated and was sentimentally involved with the SDU operator Siu Mei Lin. They started dating in 2005 before separating a year later.
- Echo is on friendly terms with 707th SMB Operator Grace Nam. Despite this, the two often become competitive when it comes to outperforming one another in the workshop.
- The Bearing 9 was originally classified as a Submachine Gun.
- The weapon has two empty recharge animations, one to use the iron sights and another to use any sighting accessory on the weapon.
- The strange designation is a reference to what Minebea represents (Nippon Miniature Bearing Company).

To finish, playing with Echo requires a lot of practice and patience. Its gameplay is really slow since it is not a very mobile operator, it is recommended to have enemies close by and use your drone with ultrasonic blast to have an advantage over the enemy. His weapons are great and he is an operator that can delay the enemy team and help the companions by stunning enemies and revealing their position. I hope you liked my review about Echo!
