Best Rainbow Six Siege Tournaments

With the imminent conclusion of the 2023/4 season, Ubisoft has announced a partnership with BLAST for the 2024 season.

While there are a number of changes to look forward to, let’s start with a summary of the best Rainbow Six Siege tournaments for esports betting.

R6S 2024 – Global Point System

First things first, the 2024 season is changing the Global Point System – the key mechanic which dictate which teams qualify for the Six Invitational.

Moreover, more emphasis is placed on performing at the Majors. Here’s a look at the R6S Global Point System for 2024:

For the 2024 season, there are a number of regional leagues taking place, with differing levels of scale. Here’s a look at the R6S regional leagues featuring the best Rainbow Six Siege teams for 2024:

UBISOFT Regional LeaguesStart DateEnd Date
MENA League 2024 - Stage 211th September 3rd October
Asia League 2024 - Stage 24th September 2nd October
Japan League 2024 - Stage 27th September1st October
LATAM League 2024 - Stage 29th September1st October
Europe League 2024 - Stage 22nd September1st October
Brazil League 2024 - Stage 27th September1st October
Oceania League 2024 - Stage 29th September1st October
South Korea League 2024 - Stage 25th September1st October
North America League 2024 - Stage 25th September1st October

Depending on the size of the region, the format changes for each and repeats in each Stage.

For larger regions, such as North America, a series of Open Qualifiers build up to the North America League. Here, teams either earn a direct seed to the Major or fight through the Last Chance Qualifier after a BO1 Group Round Robin and Modified GSL Playoffs.

The Last Chance Qualifier involves a single elimination, BO3 bracket across the best Rainbow Six Siege maps.

In comparison, regions such as the Asia League do not offer a Last Chance Qualifier, and regions such as LATAM are divided into two divisions (North and South).

The History of the Best Rainbow Six Tournaments

For several years, the best Rainbow Six Siege teams in the world have been competing for millions of dollars on the grandest stages of them all. Once upon a time, however, the Rainbow Six Siege esports space was a staging ground – a test environment for the viability of R6S esports. While the platform had been built to accommodate esports, it wasn’t immediately known how successful these tournaments would ultimately become.

As an example, let’s look at the Rainbow Six Siege Pro League, which was first held at the start of 2016, mere months after R6S launched. This global Pro League welcomed some of the best and brightest – and newest – Siege players into the fold, giving them a competitive platform upon which to flex their skills. This League formed the foundation and backbone of Rainbow Six Siege esports up until 2020 when events were canceled owing to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Since 2017, we’ve seen other tournaments launch into the space, such as the Six Invitational and the Six Majors. These events make up some of the most ambitious esports tournaments the ecosystem has to offer, bringing together teams from all around the world to compete for millions of dollars. At the top of the table sits the Six Invitational, which was first held in 2017, boasting a $100,000 prize pool. In 2022, the Six Invitational carries with it a pool of around $3 million, maintained for 2023.
