The Canadian Rainbow-Six team Rogue is eliminated in the first round of the playoffs of the Six Invitational. Rogue failed to beat the Thai team Elevate with a score of 1:2.

"Not the result we wanted," Rogues coach Matthew "meepeY" Sharples wrote about the tournament on Twitter. After falling behind in the first round, his team managed to turn the game around and go into extra time with a lead. In the last round, however, Elevate was able to win the game in a one-on-one situation (7:3, 3:7, 8:7).

The decisive factor in this was the performance of Elevate's paramin "sprOnigiri" Suwanwattana. He reached the record of Lucca's "Paluh" Molina from 2020 with 27 eliminations on the last card, but could not break it.

In addition to Rogue, the remaining European teams have also been eliminated. Natus Vincere could not prevail against the American team DarkZero (1:2). For MNM Gaming, too, the series of successes that began with the promotion to the European League ends with the defeat against Oxygen Esports (0:2).
