Industry Awards
As well as the individual awards, there are also a number of Esports Awards up for grabs for the companies behind the action.
While Ubisoft once again got nominations for themselves and Siege, the team here at SiegeGG was lucky enough to pick up a nomination for Coverage Platform of the Year:
- Esports Game of the Year - Rainbow Six Siege
- Esports Publisher of the Year - Ubisoft
- Broadcast/Production Team of the Year - ESL Gaming, Nerd Street Gamers, and FACEIT
- Coverage Platform of the Year - Dot Esports, Liquipedia, and SiegeGG
Finally, there are a number of awards up for grabs for esports organizations primarily concerning their produced content. Below are the awards in which organizations involved in Rainbow Six are nominated for:
- Organization of the Year - G2 Esports, TSM, T1, Fnatic, Team Liquid, and FaZe Clan
- Apparel of the Year - Spacestation Gaming, FaZe Clan, G2 Esports, Team Vitality, Fallen Wear, Fnatic, and Team Liquid

Last year, Michael "KiXSTAr" Stockley was crowned the Color Caster of the Year, an award he was nominated for again this year just two weeks before his death. G2 Esports, meanwhile, took home the award for Esports Organization of the Year.
With the categories greatly expanded, it is likely more members of the R6 community, as well as Pro Circuit organizations, will win awards this year.
The awards will see a number of these names all meet in Arlington, Texas tomorrow night for the award ceremony.
