INTZ appoints Rickzz as Coach
Brazilian organization INTZ has bolstered its Rainbow Six Siege technical staff with the addition of Ricardo "Rickzz" Silva as coach, the team confirmed on April 3rd. The signing completes the staff structure around the squad that INTZ acquired just weeks prior.
A New Chapter for INTZ
On March 4th, INTZ acquired the roster of Magnética, consisting of rappz, Legacy, Ar7hr, Stk, and AngelzZ — with LH7 joining as manager shortly after. The addition of Rickzz on April 3rd now gives the freshly assembled squad a dedicated coaching voice heading into the South America League 2026 Challenger Series.
INTZ entered the SAL 2026 Challenger Series after qualifying through the second qualifier spot, with Ar7hr serving as captain alongside Legacy, Stk, rappz, and AngelzZ.
Who Is Rickzz?
Ricardo "Rickzz" Silva is a Brazilian Rainbow Six Siege coach with experience in South America's competitive tier 2 and tier 1 ecosystem. Most recently, he was attached to Stellae, one of the region's most active developmental outfits. Under Stellae, that Brazilian core established themselves as the region's most in-form team in Tier 2, winning the Liga START 2025 in August 2025.
Rickzz also served as Head Coach for Elevate Academy ahead of the Six Invitational 2026 South America qualifier circuit, demonstrating his versatility and demand across multiple projects in the Brazilian scene before landing at INTZ.
What to Expect
INTZ arrives in the SAL 2026 Challenger Series as a team with something to prove. The Magnética roster was a known quantity in Brazilian Tier 2, and the organization's backing — combined with Rickzz's coaching experience at both Elevate and Stellae — gives this project a real foundation to build from.
With the SAL 2026 Kickoff stage already underway, INTZ qualified for the main event through the Challenger Series second seed, joining the likes of Imperial on the SAL stage. The pressure is on from day one, and Rickzz will be tasked with getting this roster firing quickly.
For INTZ, a storied Brazilian organization with history across multiple titles, re-establishing themselves as a force in Rainbow Six Siege's South American league is the goal — and this coaching hire signals they're serious about making that happen.
