The organizers revealed that instead of putting together a playoffs tournament, the top two teams in APAC North and South Divisions would secure direct qualification to the Six Majors.<\/p>\n<p>Although OXG found out about their qualification late following a 5-7 loss to Spacestation Gaming, it did not stop their celebration. They took to Twitter to share their excitement.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Late to the party, but we couldn&#8217;t stop twerking when we heard the news.

However, a win will guarantee them first place and $15,000 from the $50,000 prize pool.<\/p>\n<p>Ethan &#8220;Nuers&#8221; James has been the stand-out player for OXG. Although the team has not dominated the league, getting results through close shaves and narrow victories, Nuers has won the most MVP awards (3).<\/p>\n<p>The 19-year-old was the first player to hit the 100-kill mark in this stage of the <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/rainbow-six-siege\/\">Rainbow Six<\/a> competition.<\/p>\n<p>With only one playday left in the NAL (July 13), the remaining three teams that will be representing North America will be revealed. As things stand, Parabellum Esports, Soniqs, and Astralis hold the second to fourth-placed spots.<\/p>\n<p>However, there could be a lot of movement on the final play days as the fifth to eighth-placed teams all have 12 points, one point below Soniqs and Astralis.<\/p>\n<p>OXG joined Rainbow Six in May 2020 and have since established themselves as a top team. They have participated in every Six Major since joining the NAL except the Mexico Major in August 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, they can only be praised for participation as they have failed to achieve any significant success in those events. Their best run was during the 2022 Charlotte Major, where they reached the semifinals of the playoffs but were swept by Astralis 2-0.<\/p>\n<p>There is plenty of action left in other leagues before the Berlin Major participants are revealed. The EUL has five more playdays which will end on August 1.<\/p>\n<p>The participants from APAC (North and South) will be announced on July 27 and 28, respectively. The Latin American representatives will be revealed on July 30. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/sites\/\">Esports betting sites<\/a> do not yet have outright odds available for the upcoming Rainbow Six Major. <\/p>\n<p>\u2028<a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/news\/\" class=\"contentLinkBtn\">More esports news<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oxygen Esports have secured a spot in the 2022 Rainbow Six Berlin Major, despite having one play-day left in the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":3415,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ghostkit_customizer_options":"","ghostkit_custom_css":"","ghostkit_custom_js_head":"","ghostkit_custom_js_foot":"","ghostkit_typography":"","wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[2330,2179,5],"class_list":["post-21596","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-oxygen-esports","tag-rainbow-six","tag-us"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21596"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/25"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21596"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21596\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21597,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21596\/revisions\/21597"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3415"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21596"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21596"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21596"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
