10/02/2021 The names and logos of the ten competing teams have now been revealed.
Rainbow Six Siege fans were understandably devastated when Ubisoft postponed the Six Invitational last week, but players and content creators have come together to replace the competition. As one of the biggest esports games, any replacement to the biggest tournament on the Siege calendar will have to be something special for fans to be happy.
However, something special seems to be on the cards, as some of the finest Siege players are coming together to host the R6 Memevitational - a fun tournament that will see pros join teams with content creators to give fans of the esport something to look forward to.
Ex-G2 and Chaos Esports Club analyst Jack 'Fresh' Allen shared a screenshot of the early discussions of the tournament, in which some top UK talents brainstormed ideas. Commentator Derry 'Dezachu' Holt came up the the Memevitational name, but the process looks very collaborative. Fresh's tweet says that they now have, "near enough 10 confirmed teams, with some of the biggest and best names in Siege."
