Orgless and Fnatic both qualified for the event at the top of their groups, reflective of their respective form in the Rainbow Six ANZ Pro League. ACME Association were a surprising high-seed, taking home second in Group A with a 3-1 record behind Orgless, while Pro League team Oddity Esports scraped in over Team Cryptik on the final day.

The eight teams will play in a single-elimination, best-of-three bracket at the Melbourne Esports Open, with action spanning over both days of the event. The winning team will take home $20,000, while every team is guaranteed to earn at least $2,000 for attending the Six Masters.

The Rainbow Six Masters was started in 2018 as a four-team invitational, with Athletico, Dark Sided, Fnatic, and Japanese squad Nora-Rengo coming over to PAX Australia in October. Fnatic took home the title in a thrilling 2-1 series and will be looking to defend their crown at MEO next month.
