The Rainbow Six Siege Pro League Season came to an end earlier today and with it came the full reveal of Operation Para Bellum, including the two new Operators Alibi and Maestro. 

Alibi can spawn three separate decoys during the match. These decoys look exactly Alibi and if an enemy shoots them or touches them, they will be marked for the next few seconds. During the reveal they showed various ways to use these decoys such as placing them in front of a window to make it seem like Alibi is going to spawn peak. Alibi can also throw the decoy outside and as long as a decoy is active, the enemy team will not know the exact enemy that runs outside. 

Now there are hard counters to the decoys as well. They can be destroyed if an enemy shoots at the base of them and Twitch can destroy them with her shock drone. Thatcher can disable them for a few seconds, but probably the hardest counter is Glaz who won't be fooled through his thermal scope. 

The second Defender is Maestro who can deploy a camera called "Evil Eye". Evil Eye has two separate functions. First, when the shutter is closed, Evil Eye cannot be destroyed by shooting it as it's bullet proof. Evil Eye can mark enemies and see through smoke as well. When the shutter is open, Maestro can shoot lasers at his opponents which deals a small amount of damage, shoot drones or destroy enemy breaching equipment. This however is dangerous as Evil Eye can be destroyed with bullets or melee attacks when the shutter is open.

To destroy Evil Eye you need to either blow it up with an explosive, destroy the wall which it's on or it can be destroyed by a Sledge hammer shot. Twitch and Thatcher can also disable the camera temporarily with their gadgets.
