The ninth year of competitive Rainbow Six Siege has come to an end, with new number one team crowned in Boston. Well, “new” applies to the players who hadn’t lifted the championship Hammer before—but the tag at the top of Rainbow Six Siege esports is a familiar one.

In the grand final, FaZe Clan completely outplayed and dismantled Team BDS, despite the latter having a major advantage in the map veto. As the winners of the upper bracket, Team BDS had the privilege of selecting the first map before the ban phase.

In theory, this allows you to pick a map that your opponents typically ban, crush them on it, and demoralize them before securing the advantage. However, on Chalet—a map FaZe Clan doesn’t usually play—the Brazilian squad managed to put up a solid fight. Team BDS barely scraped by, winning the map in overtime.

That hard-fought victory, despite their advantage, only led to uncertainty in Team BDS’s gameplay. The next three maps? All comfortably secured by FaZe Clan.

Next year, Rainbow Six Siege is set for major changes, and the next world champion will likely be crowned at Siege X.
