An international caliber tournament<\/a>\u00a0for a game designed in our beloved city with Ubisoft Montreal took place in Montreal last weekend (February 3-5).<\/p>\n

I must admit that I didn’t have many expectations for the event for multiple reasons: I learned that the event was taking place only a few weeks before it (this is a problem for me who keeps up with everything that happens in Quebec), the Rainbow 6 scene is only in its first season and I had never heard of the event location, Usine C.<\/p>\n

In the end, the event was a real success! The caliber of the matches was frankly impressive and demonstrated that the scene was balanced because there weren’t many 2-0s on PC. The matches were close and exciting. The choice of venue was excellent. With a maximum capacity of around 500 seats, it was just the right number to fill the place and create a perfect atmosphere. The level of production was also there: there were very few delays, no major technical issues that I know of, no downtime where content wasn’t being presented, the commentators did an outstanding job, etc.<\/p>\n

S\u00e9rieusement, \u00e0 toute l\u2019\u00e9quipe ayant travaill\u00e9 sur l\u2019\u00e9v\u00e9nement\u00a0: GOOD JOB! Probablement l\u2019un des meilleurs ayant eu lieu \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al jusqu\u2019\u00e0 maintenant!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

One of the highlight of my weekend was the opportunity to talk with Brian from RallyPointGG I had Saturday. I was looking foward having a conversation with him because I\u2019m a huge fan of his podcast and it\u2019s important to me that influencers like him know about the Quebec Exclusion<\/a> and what the situation of e-sports here in Montreal. It was really interesting!<\/p>\n
