At the start of the second round of the European League, the Canadian Rainbow-Six team Rogue has failed at the rising MnM Gaming.

"They took us a little by surprise," MNM's Leon "neLo" Pesić said in an interview after the game. Rogue was safely leading 6-3 and was only one point away from victory when MnM started the chase. "We managed to see through them," NeLo said. His team managed to save themselves in extra time and won the game with a score of 8:6.

The second Canadian team G2 Esports also falls short of expectations. The squad, presented as a "Superteam" at the start of the season, lost to direct competitor Wolves Esports with a score of 5:7.

Despite the disappointing performance at the Six Major in Charlotte, Heroic remains unbeaten in the European League. With a one-sided 7: 2 victory against PWNZ, the favorite safely started the second round of the tournament.

On the next matchday on June 27, BDS Esport will try to prevail against Heroic. At the same time, the two German teams G2 and Rogue will meet in a derby.
