📈 Y11S3 · Operation Split Fire winners & losers — how the community re-voted the meta →
Defending in Siege X is a moving target. Reinforcement, gadget, and weapon balance swings decide which anchors and roamers actually dominate a site — Operation Split Fire added Noor, whose Horus Lance burrows into a ballistic shield and then ignites, giving defenders a direct answer to a Montagne walking onto the plant, and it handed Echo a faster Yokai sonic-burst recharge and Kapkan more Entry Denial Device damage. The Villa basement rework, the ban phase, and shifting site meta keep the order in flux every single season.
This board ranks every defender in the current ranked pool, as voted by the community. If your main is criminally underrated here, that's what the vote buttons are for.
One vote per entry (change anytime), recency-weighted so the list tracks the current patch, minimum votes before ranking, re-tabulated live. New boards start from a clearly-labeled expert baseline until real votes take over — displayed counts only ever include player votes. No win-rate scraping, no single expert. Full methodology →
