Most Siege pros aim on a non-native aspect ratio — 10 of 14 tracked pros run something other than 16:9, and 4:3 is the single most common choice. Rainbow Six Siege X, 14 tracked professionals: DPI, resolution, aspect ratio, and every mouse, pad, monitor and keyboard on record.

Angles, sound and destruction

Rainbow Six Siege is Ubisoft's attack-vs-defend tactical shooter: destructible walls, one-life rounds, and duels won by pre-aimed angles and reading footsteps. In June 2025 its 10th-anniversary update rebranded the game Rainbow Six Siege X — free access, a new 6v6 Dual Front mode and a reworked rappel system, while the classic 5v5 stays the competitive core. The aiming culture, though, is unchanged: of 14 pros with a record, 43% play stretched 4:3 and 50% run 400 DPI. Pre-aim wide, click small.

The pro circuit in brief

Siege esports runs on regional pro leagues through the year, capped by the Six Invitational — the yearly world final, held in Paris in February 2026. Ubisoft reports 40+ professional organizations across the global leagues. Because Siege X kept the core 5v5 intact, the pro gear meta is a straight line from the old game — which is what makes its distribution readable on this page.
