Natus Vincere (NAVI), one of the world's leading esports clubs, has announced that it will discontinue its Rainbow Six Siege division following the transfer of two players to WYLDE. Edoardo "T3b" Treglia and Jesse "Jeggz" Ojanen have joined the new organization, leaving NAVI without a full roster.

NAVI entered Rainbow Six Siege in 2019 by acquiring the roster of Mock-it Esports. Since then, the team has competed in three seasons of the Pro League and nine seasons of the European League, as well as two Six Invitational world championships. The team's best achievements include winning Pro League Season 10 Finals in 2019 and reaching third place at Six Invitational 2020.

In a statement on its official website, NAVI thanked its players, staff and fans for their support and dedication over the years. The club also expressed its gratitude to Ubisoft for developing and maintaining Rainbow Six Siege as a competitive title.

NAVI said that it will not be assembling a new Rainbow Six Siege roster and will leave the discipline for now. However, the club did not rule out a possible return in the future if there are favorable conditions and opportunities.

Rainbow Six Siege is a tactical first-person shooter game that features teams of five players competing in various modes and maps. The game was released in 2015 and has since grown into one of the most popular esports titles with millions of players and viewers worldwide.

Watch the full farewell here.
