The first semi-final was between Team Falcons and Team BDS. Going into the matchup, it was clear that BDS was the favorite, after having won the Gamers8 2022 Rainbow Six Siege event. The best-of-three series was very one-sided with BDS easily picking up a 2-0 win against Falcons. The two maps and the rounds scores were as follows:

Skyscraper:

  • Team Falcons 3 round wins (1 on defense and 2 on attack)

  • Team BDS: 7 round wins (5 on attack and 2 on defense)

Though Kafe Dostoyevsky was the decider map, the series did not go that far.

M80 vs w7m Esports goes down to the wire

The second semi-final was a close one with the series going to three maps: Villa, Theme Park, and Chalet. While w7m won the first map, M80 came back swinging and reverse-swept the best-of-three series to qualify for the finals of Gamers8 Rainbow Six Siege 2023 tournament.

The scores were as follows:

Villa:

  • w7m: 7 round wins (2 on defense, 5 on attack)

  • w7m: 4 round wins (3 on defense, 1 on attack)

  • M80: 7 round wins (3 on attack, 4 on defense)

Chalet:

  • w7m: 5 round wins (3 on attack, 2 on defense)

  • M80: 7 round wins (3 on defense, 4 on attack)
