‘The dream’: FaZe Clan secure victory in Rainbow 6 Siege at Esports World Cup 2026 after flawless tournament run

PARIS: FaZe Clan have lifted the trophy in Rainbow 6 Siege at Esports World Cup 2026 for the first time, following a 3-1 victory over fellow Brazilian team Furia in the grand finals.

“We imagined that we could go far with this org, with our whole lineup, and now being here and being the champions, it’s so nice,” added Lucas “soulz1” Schinke.

“Some past tournaments that we managed to not (do) very well, and kinda misplayed a little bit, we know it was something small that
