Rainbow Six Siege’s The Esports Club League just concluded its first playday for division two matches. The tournament has a prize pool of $1,800, which is very high for the South Asia competitive scene. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, all the matches will be held online instead of the more traditional LAN environment. The prize pool of the tournament will be split and awarded to the top five teams in every division. You can find the prize pool split here.
The ongoing The Esports Club League is a league-based competition, where every team has to face all their opponents from the same division. After all the matches are played out, every team will have earned points that are determined by the team's wins. The bottom three teams of every division then get demoted to the lower division, or even relegated if you are in division three, which is the lowest division in this league. You can watch live streams of every game on the TEC YouTube page.
The most exciting matchup for the first playday was between Vector Sports and Team Area. The match was played on Clubhouse, which is a very strategy-heavy map. The match was one-sided for Vector. The team was able to dominate Area with default ranked strategies, which led Vector to their easy victory with a 7-1 scoreline.
Another exciting match to watch was between Havox and Badtrip Esports. This match was played on Consulate. Consulate is a super frag-heavy map that favors the attacking side. The match went 7-5 in favor of Badtrip Esports, with Darklord.BTE carrying his team with 24 kills. This is very impressive because Badtrip Esports didn’t even manage to reach overtime and Darklord was able to get 24 frags playing operators such as Zofia and Jager.
