Wildcard have announced the addition of the BLAST R6 Major Montreal champion Leonardo "Dash" Lopes to close the team's Rainbow Six Siege roster ahead of the 2025 season.
The Brazilian is Wildcard's second signing of the transfer window after announcing the arrival of the French player Joan "bbySharKK" Benito.
The Brazilian made his professional debut in March 2022 after signing for Team oNe. Surprisingly, the golden roster, which included three rookies, managed to qualify for the Six Charlotte Major after a third-place finish in the first split of the Brasileirão 2022.
After missing out on the Six Berlin Major by just one point, the team had to face Lorenzo "Lagonis" Volpi's departure to Team Liquid and signed the rookie Júlio "L0BIN" Gabriel as a replacement. Again, the team missed out on the third and final Six Major of the year, Jönköping, as they finished in fifth place for the second consecutive stage.
However, Dash and his teammates made a return to international heights after qualifying for the Six Invitational 2023 under LOS oNe. A Top 12 finish in Montreal, Canada, was followed by a quiet season that ended in a Top 2 finish at the BLAST R6 Major Atlanta. Three months later, the Brazilians claimed a Top 16 finish at the Six Invitational 2024 before joining w7m esports for the 2024 season.
Under the Bulls, Dash and the rest of his teammates finished in second place in the Esports World Cup 2024 and won the BLAST R6 Major Montreal. Unfortunately for him, his last performance for w7m esports was a 1-2 defeat against Team Falcons at the Six Invitational 2025 as they got another Top 16 finish.
After three years competing in Brazil's top-flight, becoming a BLAST R6 Major champion, and being one match away from winning the Esports World Cup, the Brazilian has done enough to show his talent. He's expected to make his debut for Wildcard in May 2025 in his country, as the team will compete in Reload, a tournament played on Rainbow Six Siege X that will take place in Rio de Janeiro.
