Rainbow Six Siege mouse pads for the desk

Our Rainbow Six Siege mouse pads and desk mats carry art inspired by Ubisoft's tactical shooter, from operator emblems to the steel of a reinforced wall, printed in high resolution over the entire face of a 3 mm neoprene pad. Each pad combines a fabric surface with a grippy non-slip base and a stitched border. Pick from up to eight sizes, the 11.8″ × 15.7″ (30 × 40 cm) mouse pad at one end and the 23.6″ × 47.2″ (60 × 120 cm) desk mat at the other; the sizes for a particular design are listed where you buy it. Your pad is printed when the order comes in, not before.

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege came out in December 2015, made by Ubisoft Montreal. Two teams of five take turns attacking and defending a room in a building whose walls, floors and ceilings can be blown open, and every player picks an operator with one signature gadget. A decade of seasons has grown the roster far beyond the original twenty, and in June 2025 Siege X reworked the game once more.

Lean keys and a steady keyboard

Siege asks more of your left hand than most shooters. Q and E lean you around a corner, and players rock back and forth constantly to peek an angle with as little of their body showing as possible, while also crouching, going prone and switching to gadgets. That is a lot of small, sharp keyboard input, round after round. On a desk mat, the keyboard sits on the same non-slip surface as the mouse, so it stays where your hand expects it.

The mouse hand does two jobs. Most of the time it holds still, crosshair parked at head height on a doorway, and then it has to snap when a wall comes down or someone swings wide. A pad with room for that sudden move, and an even fabric top for the long wait before it, covers both.

Operator emblems on a small pad

Every operator has an icon of their own, a small flat emblem built around their gadget or personality, and the game lines them up across the top of the screen so you can see at a glance who is still alive on each team. Those icons are made to be read instantly, which makes them right for the 11.8″ × 15.7″ (30 × 40 cm) pad. One emblem, your main's, placed near the top edge says everything it needs to, and it stays visible while the mouse hand rests below it.

On a long mat, a grid of emblems works the other way round. Twenty or thirty icons in rows behave like a pattern, and the keyboard can cover a row or two without hiding the idea.

The original twenty

At launch, Siege's operators came from five real counter-terrorism units, four from each: the SAS with Sledge, Thatcher, Smoke and Mute; the FBI SWAT with Ash, Thermite, Castle and Pulse; the GIGN with Twitch, Montagne, Doc and Rook; the Spetsnaz with Glaz, Fuze, Kapkan and Tachanka; and the GSG 9 with IQ, Blitz, Jäger and Bandit. A design that groups them by unit is a nod to players who were there in 2015, and Tachanka, whose mounted turret made him a running joke in the community for years, is the in-joke of the set.

Black Ice blues

Operation Black Ice, Siege's first season in February 2016, brought Buck and Frost from Canada's JTF2 and the Yacht map, a luxury boat frozen into Arctic ice. It also introduced the Black Ice weapon skins, an icy camouflage of pale blue, white and dark gray. As a palette, Black Ice is cold and clean: icy blue, frosted white and dark steel. It suits a white or silver desk with cool white light, or a dark desk where the pale blue glows against black keys.

Breaching in orange and red

The game's signature moment is a wall coming down. Thermite's exothermic charges burn through reinforced steel in a shower of orange sparks, Hibana's red pellets eat holes in it from range, and Sledge simply swings a hammer at whatever isn't reinforced. Those effects give you the warm side of the Siege palette: molten orange, red and white heat against gray steel. A breach design suits a desk with warm lighting, and the steel plates and rivets of a reinforced wall make a hard, industrial all-over pattern for the parts the keyboard covers.

Defender gadgets as a pattern

A defended site in Siege is a collection of small, specific objects: barbed wire across a doorway, Kapkan's traps on a frame, Mute's jammers on the floor, Valkyrie's cameras tucked into corners and deployable shields at the angles. Each is a simple shape players know at once, and scattered across a mat they make an all-over pattern rather than a scene. That suits a desk mat well, since the keyboard can sit anywhere on it without hiding a focal point, and it is a quiet in-joke: the pad is set up like a site, ready for someone to breach it.

Maps as palettes

Siege's maps are complete buildings, each with its own decor, and their interiors translate straight into desk colors.

• Kafe Dostoyevsky: a Moscow café in dark wood, warm lamps and old Russian decor, for a classic desk.
• Chalet: a ski lodge with log walls and snow outside, for a wood desk in winter light.
• Coastline: a white-walled club on Ibiza above turquoise water, for a bright, airy setup.
• Villa: an Italian country house in terracotta and old stone.
• Clubhouse: a biker gang's hangout in dark brick and grime, for a moody black desk.
• Bank: a polished lobby above a steel vault, for a gray-and-gold setup.

Drones before every round

Each attacking round opens with the drone phase: a small wheeled camera you drive through the building with the keyboard, panning with the mouse, looking for the objective and the defenders around it. Defenders watch back through cameras on the walls. That spying gives Siege its own visual language of grainy feeds, scan lines and marked enemies, and a design styled like a camera feed makes a fittingly paranoid small pad for a dark desk.

Callouts and a blueprint on the desk

Siege maps are learned room by room, floor by floor, and every room has a callout, from Bank's CCTV room to Clubhouse's Church. The game's map screens show each floor as a flat plan, and that style suits a deep mat well: one floor of one building, room names printed in, laid out above the keyboard. Choose the floor you defend most, often the one with your favorite site, and give it the XXL, 23.6″ × 35.4″ (60 × 90 cm), so the names stay readable.

Operators with a look

Some operators bring a palette of their own. Caveira, the Brazilian interrogator, wears a painted skull face and dark jungle green. Valkyrie's Black Eye cameras are round, glossy and easy to recognize. Jäger's GSG 9 gear is gray and black, built around his ADS gadget that swats grenades out of the air. Ela's green hair and Hibana's red pellets add bright accents to an otherwise military cast. A design built around one of them gives a desk its color without needing a whole squad.

Event modes and seasonal colors

Siege has always broken up its seasons with limited-time modes, and some of them brought palettes the base game never had. Outbreak, in 2018, sent players into a quarantined New Mexico town overrun by an alien infection, all sickly green and dust. Doktor's Curse, the Halloween hide-and-seek mode, turned Doc into a hammer-wielding monster in a haunted Theme Park. A design drawn from one of these is a change of mood: green and black for a dark desk, Halloween orange for a seasonal one, and a nod for anyone who played the event the year it ran.

A five-stack and the Six Invitational

Siege is at its most demanding with a full team on voice chat, and the Six Invitational, its yearly world championship, is where the pro scene peaks. For a five-stack that plays together every week, matching pads give a shared practice room or a LAN table one look, and an XL at each station keeps every keyboard and mouse on the same surface. The pads roll up to travel to an event and settle flat again within a few hours.

Siege X

Siege X, launched in June 2025, added Dual Front, a six-against-six mode built around a new kind of map, alongside a broad update to the rest of the game. A decade in, Siege still runs on the same foundation, walls that come down and operators with one trick each, and a design that mixes old and new operators suits players who have stuck with it since the first season.

Sizes for a Siege desk

Size options are set per design, and you'll see them listed on the product page. For Siege, this is where each of the main ones fits.

Setup	Size	Good for
Mouse only	S, 11.8″ × 15.7″ (30 × 40 cm)	Your main's emblem near the top edge
Laptop desk	TCG Mat, 14″ × 24″ (35.5 × 61 cm)	A camera-feed design beside a laptop
Compact keyboard	M, 11.8″ × 27.6″ (30 × 70 cm)	A breaching charge burning along the strip
Keyboard and mouse	XL, 15.7″ × 35.4″ (40 × 90 cm)	A grid of operator emblems
Deep desk	XXL, 23.6″ × 35.4″ (60 × 90 cm)	One floor of a map with every room named
Whole desk	4XL, 23.6″ × 47.2″ (60 × 120 cm)	Attackers at one end, defenders at the other

If your desk is long and shallow, the L, 11.8″ × 31.5″ (30 × 80 cm), stretches a breach scene a little further than the M; if it's wide but can't fit the XXL, the 3XL, 19.7″ × 39.4″ (50 × 100 cm), gives a floor plan more room.

Gifts for a Siege player

A Siege pad suits someone who has played since Black Ice, a one-operator loyalist or the shot-caller of a five-stack. If you know who they main, that operator's emblem is the personal choice; a Black Ice or map palette works when you don't. Without a look at the desk, XL is the dependable size, with a keyboard and mouse on one surface and room left over at the ends.

A pad is made in 1–3 business days and sent from Turkey, and US delivery normally takes another 2–5 business days.

Cleaning between seasons

Dark Siege designs, steel grays and Clubhouse brick, keep their looks under daily use but collect dust; Black Ice's pale blues show the wrist line first. Wiping it with a damp cloth once a week keeps on top of that. For a fuller clean, wash the pad by hand in lukewarm water with a mild soap, rinse it thoroughly, wrap it in a towel and press, then leave it flat to dry. Never machine wash it, tumble dry it or iron it.
