Esports Nations Cup Rainbow Six Siege Rosters Revealed

The Esports Nations Cup has officially unveiled its Rainbow Six Siege rosters for the inaugural tournament.

A total of 24 teams will compete for the $1.32 million prize pool in Riyadh, or perhaps Paris like the Esports World Cup if conflicts continue.

However, a total of 81 Rainbow Six national rosters have been revealed so far, including Bolivia, Greece, and Brunei Darussalam.

However, only 12 teams will be directly invited to the tournament by fielding the highest-ranked rosters.

A scoring system ranks every player judging off of performances from recent events to give each nation a combined score of their top five players.

The remaining countries will have to compete through local qualifiers or a wildcard tournament to secure their place.

Meanwhile, Team France is reuniting the French trio that won the Esports World Cup 2024 tournament with Team BDS: Stéphane ‘Shaiiko’ Lebleu, Loïc ‘BriD’ Chongthep, and Théo ‘LikEfac’ Mariano.
