Rainbow Six Siege ’s biggest event for 2021, the Six Invitational held in Paris, concluded its final playday for Group A. The two round-robin format groups allowed all teams to play each other once. Only the top four teams from each group would move ahead to the upper brackets, while the fifth to ninth placers would go to the lower bracket to try to get a spot in the playoffs. The tenth place would be knocked out.
Both the teams from APAC were on the bottom of the leaderboard with two wins each, but Cloud9 made it barely because of the round advantage they had over Cyclops Athlete Gaming. CAG put up a brilliant fight on the final playday against the top two teams of Europe, Team BDS and Team Empire, but CAG was unable to close both games and lost them at 7-8.
Europe
Team Empire and Team BDS are currently carrying EU in the leaderboards with eight wins and one loss for both teams. Empire managed to claim the first spot by a small round advantage margin. Both teams will be making their way to the upper brackets. On the other hand, G2 Esports will fight other teams in the lower brackets.
- First place: Team Empire
- Second place: Team BDS
- Eighth place: G2 Esports
LATAM
Team Liquid placed third followed by FaZe Clan at fourth place and Team oNe eSports at fifth place. This shows LATAM’s consistency in performing well against every team. However, Team oNe will have to go to the lower brackets based on their placement.
- Third place: Team Liquid
- Fourth place: FaZe Clan
- Fifth place: Team oNe
- Seventh place: Furia Esports
North America
DarkZero Esports, the only team from NA placed sixth, which means they will go to the lower brackets. Their match against FURIA was pretty fun to watch as DZ won the map with a 7-3 scoreline.
APAC
APAC had a terrible showing at this Six Invitational as CAG already got eliminated and Cloud9 barely alive for the playoffs at ninth place. APAC will have a better chance at Six Invitational next year with some of the contenders looking stronger than before.
