R6 SHARE is the cornerstone of Ubisoft’s vision of sustainable esports for Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege and aims to ensure a mature and virtuous environment for partner organizations. R6 SHARE will support 42 organizations worldwide and introduces a multi-tier support system with 3 Tiers, to adapt both revenue shares and requirements to the variable situations that organizations worldwide face. Following a qualitative in-depth selection process conducted with the assistance of an independent third party, the 42 selected teams have been placed in Tiers listed below. R6 SHARE organizations will then be assessed every 3 months and ranked against other organizations in their Tier on a set of criteria; the performance of their in-game items, viewership of their matches, support provided to their players, and the performance of their communications around Rainbow Six. Tiers will be adjusted once a year, with organizations being promoted and demoted to different Tiers, starting in August of 2021 to more accurately reflect the performance of the organizations in Rainbow Six Siege. Tiers and ranks will determine what level of support an organization receives, and the amount they will earn from the Performance Pool. TIER 1 – 10 organizations
• FaZe Clan
TIER 2 – 15 organizations
• Disrupt Gaming
TIER 3 – 17 organizations
• Soniqs
R6 SHARE guidelines also ensure that: • For every team-branded item sold, the R6 SHARE organizations will receive 30% of the proceeds from their respective team-branded items. Moreover, 30% of the organization's revenue share will contribute to the organization's players and content creators. • For every regional league set sold, 30% of the net revenue will be split 4 ways between Tier 1 organizations, Tier 2, Tier 3 and a Performance Pool. • For each Six Major starting with the Six November Major, an Operator bundle will be produced. 30% of the net revenue from these items will contribute to the prize pool of the corresponding Six Major event. • Road to S.I. Battle Pass: 30% of the net revenue from the Road to Six Invitational Battle Pass will go towards the Six Invitational prize pool. • For revenue generated by the Six Major items and the Road to S.I. Battle Pass contributing to the respective prize pools of those events, if a team wins part of that prize money in the competition, then 70% of this prize money will go to the players and 30% to the organization. | |
