Rainbow Six Copenhagen Major play-ins end with APAC teams on devastating 21-game losing streak

Today, April 27, marked the end of the play-in stage of the Rainbow Six Copenhagen Major. Eight teams were sent home over the last four days, seven of which were from Asia Pacific, as teams from Japan, South Korea, Asia, and Oceania failed to win a game against non-APAC teams. 

Since the region was first introduced into the competitive scene in 2017, unsuccessful events such as these have not been uncommon. This event stands out, however, as it is the second event in a row this has been the case.
