The BLAST R6 North America League 2026 Stage 2 Week 2 came to an end with some surprising results. Cloud9 are still at the top of the standings with a six-point lead over the rest of the pack, whilst M80 have only one win to their name after the first five matches.
As we approach the third week of the split, here's what happened on the fifth day of action in North America's Stage 2.
100 Thieves 7-2 Spacestation
100 Thieves took down Spacestation in a one-sided clash on Kafe Dostoyevsky which ended in the thieves' second win of the week.
For the second match in a row, 100 Thieves' best player was Zachary "SpiriTz" Dionne. The BLAST R6 Major Manchester champion had been the best player in the team's victory against Shopify Rebellion, as he averaged a SiegeGG rating of 2.26. Against the astronauts, the Canadian stole the show once again with a SiegeGG rating of 1.83.

Althoug the thieves ended up clinching a comfortable win, Spacestation had the better start as they won two of the initial three rounds. However, their positive beginning ended up being a mirage, as 100 Thieves won the game's final five rounds. The final round of the match was a Kason 3K which ended in a 1v1 clutch.
The team's results in Week 2 have seen 100 Thieves skyrocketing on the standings. Following this week's scores, the top of the table got extremely close, as there's a cuadruple tie for second place with nine points. The lead is now held by Cloud9 with 15 points, six ahead of the rest of the pack.
Five Fears 7-5 M80
Five Fears produced the shock of the night as the blue roster took down M80 on Clubhouse, this being their first win in an official match since their 8-7 victory against Wildcard on July 2, 2026.

Playing on Clubhouse and starting from the defensive side, Five Fears took the lead in the first half as they won four of the six rounds. Whilst that's a common start to the German map, Five Fears extended their lead by winning their first attack. The Americans could have scored another attacking round minutes later, but Liam "Ashn" Paz stopped them with a 1v2 clutch to shorten the gap between both rosters. However, it only took Five Fears one more round to reach match point. Eventually, Five Fears secured the three points in the final round of regulation.
Five Fears' victory against M80 put the BLAST R6 Major Munich champions between a rock and a hard place as they have only got three points after five games played. With four matches left to play, the green roster has no room for mistake. Their next oppositions will be Cloud9 and For Fun Esports in Week 3 as well as Wildcard and 100 Thieves in Week 4. Missing out on the playoffs isn't an option for M80 as being out of Osaka means the team will have to play in North America's Six Invitational 2027 LCQ.
Shopify Rebellion 8-7 DarkZero Esports
Following Shopify Rebellion's 0-7 defeat against 100 Thieves, the American roster desperately needed a good result against the BLAST R6 Major Salt Lake City champions DarkZero Esports. Doing so was always going to be a tough task; before the game, the four matches between both sides in Year 11 had ended in victories for the purple roster. The final score was different this time.

Shopify Rebellion had a great start on Lair's attack as they won three of the first four rounds of the game. This initial lead was crucial as DarkZero Esports slowly but steadily shortened the gap and even overtook their rivals to reach match point in round eleven. Fortunately for Shopify Rebellion, Jaylen "Ambi" Turk pushed both teams to overtime as he completed a 1v2 clutch in round twelve.
Starting the overtime on defense, Shopify Rebellion's chances of winning increased. Eventually, the Americans secured the win, which allowed them to end the week sitting at the top half of the standings.
Outlast 8-7 Wildcard
Heading to the match, Wildcard were the favorites to take the win. The day before, Wildcard had beaten Spacestation whilst Outlast conceded a flawless defeat to M80. However, Outlast ended up shocking Wildcard as they took down the Rainbow Six Siege Esports World Cup 2026 Top 8 side.

Starting on defense on Clubhouse, Wildcard took the initial lead, building a 3-1 advantage which was eventually leveled before switching sides. Despite being on attack, Wildcard slowly but steadily regained control of the game. Unfortunately for them, Outlast pushed Wildcard to overtime.
In the first overtime round, Danil "JoyStiCK" Gabov stole the show with a 4K that saw Outlast taking the lead. Shortly after, Wildcard tied the score. Finally, a few minutes later, Outlast confirmed the win.
With a SiegeGG rating of 1.08, Mili was Outlast's best player, followed by the Russian Cyborg, who averaged a SiegeGG rating of 1.05. However, the best player of the game was Joan "bbySharKK" Benito, with a SiegeGG rating of 1.24.
With this result, the hopes of seeing Outlast in Osaka are still alive. Their next few matches will be tough, though, as the team will face off against DarkZero Esports, 100 Thieves, and Shopify Rebellion before playing against Spacestation in the final round of the group stage. Meanwhile, Wildcard are in a much more comfortable position, as they mathematically sit in second place with nine points, six points behind Cloud9.
Cloud9 7-4 For Fun Esports
Cloud9's fantastic start seems to have no end. The blue roster secured their fifth regulation win in a row and currently lead the standings by six points as they are the only team so far to score double digits.
- Match stats: Cloud9 7-4 For Fun Esports
Although Cloud9 ended up claiming the victory, For Fun Esports had the better start as they won their first two attacks on Clubhouse. In fact, For Fun Esports were on the verge of being 5-3 up; however, Henry "Monk" Dawkins' 1v1 clutch on round nine saw Cloud9 tying the score. After that, Cloud9 were unstoppable as they ended up winning their next three attacks.
With a SiegeGG rating of 1.57, the Six Charlotte Major champion Roberto "Panbazou" Feliciano was the best player of the game. He scored a K-D of 16-8 (+8) and an entry balance of 3-1 (+2).
