The competition in the South America League 2025 – Stage 1 is heating up. Teams are battling hard. They want a spot in the playoffs. Only the top six squads will move on. This league is the biggest Rainbow Six Siege championship in South America. For many, it’s their chance to go big.
The stakes are incredibly high. The best four teams from the playoffs will earn a ticket. They will go to the Esports World Cup (EWC). This huge global event happens in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It runs from July 5th to 9th. For these teams, a spot means global recognition. It means more sponsorships and bigger prize money.
A recent Saturday brought some nail-biting matches. Teams fought to stay alive. Some world champions needed to regain their footing. Others just wanted a second win. Let’s break down the action from that pivotal day.
Saturday’s Showdowns
- Faze defeated 9z with a score of 7 to 2.
- LOUD secured a tough win over ENX, 8 to 6.
- Team Liquid found their second victory against LOS, 7 to 2.
- W7M bested NIP, 7 to 2.
- FURIA, four-time world champions and current RELOAD winners, got back on track. They beat Black Dragons 7 to 5.
The leaderboard is super tight. Three teams are fighting for just two playoff spots. These are the 5th and 6th positions. Every match from now on is a do-or-die moment.
Only two games remain in the group stage. They will happen this Sunday, the 6th, and next Saturday, the 13th. After these matches, the playoff brackets will be set. Four organizations will then get to fly the flag for South America at the Esports World Cup. It’s a true test of skill and nerve.
