Spacestation Gaming Rainbow Six Siege X secured the North America League 2025 Regional Finals victory after a 2-0 series victory over Shopify Rebellion. After a fairly long delay, a few rounds into the series, Spacestation Gaming were able to keep their nerve and secure the North America Regional title.
Unlike the Asia Pacific region, the North America finals were not an Upper Bracket rematch, with Shopify Rebellion having beaten M80 2-1 in the Lower Bracket Final. Sadly, the 2-0 loss they took from Spacestation Gaming in the Upper Bracket Semifinals would repeat in the Grand Final.
It was an interesting start to the game with Spacestation Gaming taking a 2-1 lead; however, the stream then went into a 30-minute technical pause, which wasn’t ideal for either side looking to get into a flow state.
After the pause, Spacestation Gaming struggled to make the most of the defence, but the first map was back-and-forth, with neither side able to make a meaningful lead. Once the attacking side got going for Spacestation Gaming, they managed to come online, taking back the lead, and securing a map one victory in an incredibly solid 4-7 win.
Map two did not start well for Shopify Rebellion, with Spacestation Gaming securing two flawless opening rounds, triggering Shopify to head into a tactical timeout at the start of the third round.
A huge round for Shopify, who looked like they might lose a third round of defence, but a big clutch and a well-timed revival brought them into the second map.
Another close round would send Spacestation Gaming into a second half 2-4 lead as they moved onto defence. Shopify Rebellion had a good start to their attacking side; however, Spacestation Gaming were able to turn it around, forcing a series point with a 3-6 lead, putting so much pressure on Shopify to try and stay in the series.
The first series point round did not start how Shopify would have wanted, as it looked like they’d throw it away, but some big plays kept them fighting. Nuers on Spacestation would come alive to make it a 1v1; however, Rexan would win it to keep the map alive. Another clutch from Shopify Rebellion almost saw them cut down the lead from Spacestation Gaming; however, with time running out, it was the clock that ended up defeating them.

Spacestation Gaming secured the victory, and they looked good doing it. With Paris just a few months away, they’ll go into the event as one of the teams to watch. It was a good year for Spacestation Gaming, which won back-to-back North America League 2025 stages.
A good showing at the Six Invitational saw them claim top 6 and a $135,000 prize. They would repeat that at the Esports World Cup 2025, where they ended in 4th place, once again securing a big prize pool of $130,000. 2025 brings an end to five years of not winning a major event, though the side saw glory back in 2020 with the Six Invitational 2020 and Pro League Season 11.
Now, heading into 2026, Spacestation Gaming will go into the year with renewed vigour as they look to once again claim the Six Invitational title in Paris.
As with every other region, both sides that made it to the Grand Finals had already secured their spots at the Six Invitational 2026 in Paris anyway. However, with $46,000 on the line for the winner, it’s a big loss.
Overall, it’s been a mixed year for Shopify Rebellion, whose best showing came at the Esports World Cup 2025, which saw them end in the top 9, securing a solid $75,000 in prize money. This Grand Final gave them the chance to end on a high, but alas, they’ll have to take this into 2026 and hope they can bring the heat in Paris.
Spacestation Gaming and Shopify Rebellion join M80 and Wildcard as the four North American sides heading to Paris in 2026. One more will join them via the North America Last Chance Qualifiers in January.
This series brings an end to the Regional Finals for 2025, though four more spots are still available via the regional Last Chance Qualifiers. These all kick off in December with the open qualifiers, with Asia Pacific breaking it down into separate regions, which then culminates in a one-off Last Chance event that will see one team from each region lock in a spot in Paris in February 2026.
We’ll be following the two open qualifiers for the Six Invitational to follow along with the Europe and MENA region, alongside each of the other three regions’ qualification efforts towards the Six Invitational 2026 in Paris.
