Wildcard have announced Leonardo “d4sh” Lopes as the latest addition to their Rainbow Six Siege esports roster, which has undergone a small overhaul following a rough ending to the 2024 season.
Wildcard ended the past R6S esports season with a painful loss to Oxygen Esports in the Six Invitational 2025 North America Finals, giving the squad an extended break before the start of the next season.
Wildcard took that time to make some necessary changes, which started on January 25, with the departure of coach Matthew “meepeY” Sharples and two players — Chris “Spiff” Park and Dylan “Bosco” Bosco — three weeks later.

On Tuesday, Wildcard unveiled Joan “bbySharKK” Benito as the first new signing and on Wednesday, they revealed d4sh as the second and final addition to the new international roster.
D4sh joins Wildcard as one of the more experienced players on the new lineup, having begun his esports career in 2020 with SuperNova Team, where he did not find much success outside of winning a couple of smaller tournaments.
His luck changed at the start of 2022 when d4sh joined Team oNe eSports (later LOS + oNe and LOS), where he spent two very successful years.
With LOS, the 20-year-old made his first big event debut at Six Charlotte Major 2022 and qualified for Six Invitational 2023, finishing his first world championship appearance in 9th-12th-place.
In the final season with LOS, d4sh reached the finals of BLAST R6 Major Atlanta 2023 and placed 13th-16th at Six Invitational 2024, after which LOS released their entire lineup, with three of the players, including d4sh, joining w7m esports.
With w7m, d4sh enjoyed his best season yet. He reached the finals of the Esports World Cup 2024, placed third at Brazil League 2024 – Stage 2 and BR Premier Finals 2024, and won his first R6S Major in Montreal.
All that, however, was not enough for d4sh to keep his spot on the roster, as he announced that he was benched by w7m after a disappointing first-round exit from Six Invitational 2025.
By joining Wildcard, d4sh will play for the first non-Brazilian team of his career and play a key role in Wildcard’s quest to break into the upper echelons of the North American R6S scene.
Wildcard have yet to confirm which tournaments they will attend in the near future; however, at the latest, d4sh will debut for his new squad with the start of North America League Stage 1 in June.
