100 Thieves Reveal Rainbow Six Siege Roster Ahead of NA League 2026 Kickoff

100 Thieves Reveal Rainbow Six Siege Roster Ahead of NA League 2026 Kickoff

100 Thieves have officially unveiled their Rainbow Six Siege roster for the 2026 season, taking to social media to confirm the lineup just three weeks before their competitive debut. The announcement marks the organization's entry into the R6 Share ecosystem, where they will compete at the North America League 2026 – Kickoff alongside fellow Share teams and two Challengers squads for a spot at the BLAST R6 Major Salt Lake City 2026, a tournament being played on home soil, no less.

Meet the Team

Leading the charge is none other than Roberto "Panbazou" Feliciano, a long-time face of North American Siege who came out of retirement after stepping away from professional play towards the tail end of 2025. The former DarkZero flex player now swaps the dark rainbow for black and red, reigniting what many had hoped wasn't the last chapter of his career.

Joining him is Leonardo "Kyno" Figueiredo, who arrives off the back of one of NA's biggest underdog stories in recent memory. Kyno was a key part of the M80 squad that shocked the world at BLAST R6 Major Munich 2025, where the team pulled off an incredible run to claim the title. After parting ways with M80 just last month, Kyno has now found a new home among Nadeshot's Thieves.

The Major-winning pedigree continues with Zachary "SpiriTz" Dionne, another DarkZero alumnus and a man synonymous with miraculous upset runs. His standout moment came at BLAST R6 Major Manchester 2024, where he helped beastcoast defeat BDS in one of the most stunning upsets in Siege history to lift the trophy.

Completing the five-man lineup are Evan "Yoggah" Nelson and Adam "Atom" Gutierrez. While they may not carry the same headline prestige as their teammates, both are seasoned NA veterans. Yoggah alone boasts over eight years in the professional scene, and Atom brings competitive experience comparable to Panbazou's tenure.

A Coaching Staff with Chemistry

On the sidelines, 100 Thieves have secured Luiz "Kizi" Sirico as head coach, previously the mastermind behind Oxygen Esports and E1 Sports. He's joined by assistant coach Kaique "Kpan" Pantojo, his former colleague at Oxygen Esports. Notably, Yoggah, Atom, Kizi, and Kpan all previously worked together at OXG, a built-in familiarity that gives this team a strong tactical foundation from day one.

A Statement of Intent

General Manager Corey summed up the organization's ambition: 

"Building this program has been one of the most exciting challenges of my career... 100 Thieves has always stood for competing at the highest level, and that standard doesn't change just because it's our first season in Siege. We're here to win."

With a battle-tested core, proven winners, and a coaching staff that already has synergy, 100 Thieves look like a genuine dark horse heading into the NA League Kickoff. Whether they can translate that potential into a Major qualification run remains to be seen. But one thing is clear: they've arrived in Siege with serious intentions.
