Six On Six - A Rainbow 6 Siege Podcast: Recent Episodes
Six On Six
Six On Six is a Rainbow 6 Siege podcast hosted by esports commentator Parker "INTERRO" Mackay and professional player Troy "Canadian" Jaroslawki.

SpiriTz and Yoggah join INTERRO and Mint to break down their move to 100 Thieves — the biggest org announcement in North American R6 history.

SpiriTz and Yoggah trace their careers from teenage T2/T3 prospects through OXG, XSET, M80, and DarkZero before arriving under the 100 Thieves banner. The crew digs into the DZ post-mortem — what went wrong with the shields meta, the playing-too-perfectly problem, and whether the brand-new DarkZero roster is better than SSG ever was. Plus a full NAL season preview and predictions for Salt Lake Major qualification.

Noa and Spiker join the show to talk about SI 2026! In this Post-SI Super Show, Rainbow Six Siege fans get an inside look at Team Secret’s remarkable second-place run in Paris. Noa breaks down the slow start against FaZe Clan, the impact of nerves, fatigue, and caffeine, the team’s strategic adjustments on Fortress, and how Savage’s IGL leadership kept them grounded and confident. Spiker later joins to discuss chaotic playstyles, team identity, and shifting roster dynamics during the competitive offseason. This episode offers rare behind-the-scenes insights into Secret’s mindset, roster changes, counter-prep challenges, and what fans can expect from upcoming events during the offseason and beyond.

Rainbow Six Siege Year 11 Roadmap, Cadence Updates, Beaulo Spotlight & Global Roster Mania Breakdown. Rainbow Six Siege’s biggest event of the year has wrapped, and with it comes massive Year 11 announcements, a major shakeup in competitive rosters across EML, APAC, SAL, and NAL, and a deep-dive spotlight on world champion Beaulo. The Year 11 roadmap and new seasonal cadence signal some of the most community‑aligned updates the game has seen in years, with creators and pros unanimously praising Ubisoft for finally listening to long‑standing feedback. The episode also covers roster bombshells—like Shaiiko rumors, Virtue’s retirement, and sweeping regional moves—along with a surge in community excitement ahead of Operation Silent Hunt and the inclusion of Solid Snake.

Rainbow Six Siege Midseason Balance Changes take center stage in this episode as the crew breaks down the massive wave of operator buffs—especially the huge Thorn overhaul—and what they mean for the meta .

The discussion then shifts to the APAC LCQ results and Black Dragons’ qualification before closing with the emotional news of nesk’s retirement, marking the end of an era for one of Siege’s greatest players.

As 2025 wraps and the Six Invitational looms, Six on Six is back with the final episode of the year—joined by Canadian (Troy) fresh off qualifying for yet another SI, extending his record as the only player to attend every Six Invitational as a competitor. The episode dives deep into the newly revealed 2026–2027 Rainbow Six Siege esports calendar, including the return to two Majors, the new Challenger/LCQ structure, SI points distribution, and how relegations and partner vs. affiliate orgs reshape the tiered ecosystem.

Operation Tenfold Pursuit has finally launched in Rainbow Six Siege, and this episode of Six on Six breaks down everything: the rocky release, the massive cheat wave, Shieldguard’s rapid anti-cheat response, and how the new matchmaking really feels for different skill levels. The squad talks about cheaters, stream snipers, DDoS attacks, and how a fast follow-up anti-cheat update plus a major ban wave drastically reduced obvious cheaters in ranked – even if high-level streamers were still reporting 10–15 cheaters a day at launch. They also dig into the purpose (and limits) of the Test Server, shrinking QA budgets, and why some in the community feel that TS feedback doesn’t meaningfully change balance before patches go live.

In this episode of Six On Six, we dive deep into the art of esports casting, balancing hype and criticism, and how negative commentary can hurt the viewing experience. We break down the Tier 2 casting controversy, exploring why professionalism matters even at lower-tier events and how aspiring casters can treat every match like a job interview for Tier 1.
Then, we shift to something fun – Project Prisma’s Rainbow Six Siege Fantasy League! We share our fantasy rosters, discuss strategy (fraggers vs. balanced picks), and challenge YOU to join our Six on Six subleague for bragging rights.

In this episode of Six On Six, we dive deep into the #SaveSiege movement — is Ubisoft really giving up on Rainbow Six Siege?

Hot off their Major win in Manchester, four members from the newly announced "Cloud9 Beastcoast" roster stop by to discuss their origin story, their dominance in Stage 1, and their unlikely run at their first event as a team. Dfuzr shares his thoughts on what it was like to go from rookie to champion; fett lays out why he resigned as coach and what he hopes for the future; gunnar discusses his journey through pro play to finally getting the respect he always deserved; and hotancold gives us insight into his new role as the veteran member of a team.
Troy and Parker return from their slumber to discuss where they've been, what they've been up to, what they thought of the Manchester Major, and what to expect with the recent balancing changes.
With the Groups announced for the upcoming Charlotte Major, INTERRO is joined by Mag, AceOfPyrite, and Slash to discuss potential outcomes, upsets, and any surprises that may be in store for us! Each member of the show shares their unique perspective(s) on the teams competing at the second international event of the 2022.
The first stage of 2022 is practically complete and the results have been a complete surprise. Good is bad, old is new, red is blue -- everything is upside down! That's good for us though as we spend an hour going over the intriguing results of NAL and the other regional leagues.
Six On Six returns with a new time, date, and format! In the new two hour show filmed once every two weeks, Canadian and INTERRO discuss the 2022 Six Invitational, the ex-Empire roster leaving their org, Demon Veil, and the upcoming year of R6 NAL.
For almost half a decade, Matthew "HotanCold" Stevens has only really known one team. While the landscape of North American Rainbow 6 Siege changed around him, his spot alongside fellow teammates Pojoman and Mint remained as safe as ever. For a while they were NA's longest serving "core" and, despite never bringing home any trophies, were fan favourites in our entire esport. Things began to change after the team signed to DarkZero with Pojoman being the first to fall. Unexpectedly, and quite some time later, HotanCold would be next to depart the team in the spring of 2021. With only a few days to find a new squad, HotanCold moved to Mirage to play alongside and guide a relatively new team. A newly reinvigorated HnC would dominate the NAL that stage, putting up some of the best numbers across both the League and his career. He now finds himself with big shoes to fill as Canadian's permanent replacement on Spacestation Gaming's roster. While he may not actively seek the spotlight like some of his colleagues, HotanCold is as effortlessly charismatic, entertaining, and emotional as ever.
Easily the least productive, least professional, and most chaotic episode of Six On Six yet. Fabian joined INTERRO to discuss their thoughts on the 2021 Six Invitational before a single match was played.
It's an end of an era for Rainbow 6 Siege esports. In the month of March, Canadian and Pengu announced their retirement from competitive R6; Fabian was benched (and intends to retire if he doesn't get bought out); and Sha77e shared that he preferred content creation and streaming over playing. Four incredible careers all seemingly coming to an end. Join us for an emotional episode of Six On Six where each World Champion gets to share stories about their journey, their decision, and their future.
If you play Rainbow 6 then you've probably heard of Macie Jay. Seriously, Macie's list of accomplishments borders on absurd: among the highest follower and subscriber numbers on Twitch, Twitter, and Youtube; not just one but two in-game charms; recognized as R6's first ever MVP at the 2020 Six Invitational; the most kills of any R6 player ever... the list goes on and on. On top of being one of R6's largest streamers and youtubers, Macie Jay helped lay the groundwork for all future content creators. An outstanding person, a role model to those in our scene, and a great community ambassador are just some of the reasons why Macie Jay is one of Rainbow 6's most beloved figures. Never shy to share his unique perspective on the game, Macie spends a few hours with us discussing the state of the game and his place within in it.
With the 2021 Six Invitational fast approaching, Six On Six brings you a star-studded episode with outspoken and knowledgeable guests from each of the major regions. Legendary Brazilian caster Meligeni joins returning guests Dizzle, Fabian, and Supr for an insightful 3 hour show that touches on all the teams attending; the format of SI; expectations for each team; and a variety of other topics.
Rainbow 6 Siege has its fair share of personalities but few court controversy the way that Seth "Supr" Hoffman does. Deliberate or not, Supr always finds himself in the middle of conflict - much to the delight of drama fiends within Rainbow 6. Always outspoken, Supr has made a name for himself by taking on rumours, lies, other players, and decisions made in the Rainbow 6 esport scene. His role as a villain has earned him many enemies but that doesn't seem to trouble Supr one bit. We'd always planned on bringing him on the show but couldn't have asked for better timing: just days prior to the filming of this episode, rumours swirled about the Soniqs dropping their entire roster. Well, everyone but Supr. The last man standing on the sQ roster, Supr joins us to discuss the reasoning behind the roster changes alongside a variety of topics ranging from his persona, competitive history, and the sustainability of Rainbow 6 esports.
Justin "Lycan" Woods has seen it all. From the earliest days of R6 action, roster drama, constant issues with tourney organizers, and a successful transition to coach, there hasn't been something Lycan has missed out on. Though he may no longer play, Lycan's history as a player is fascinating and full of interesting stories about many veterans of the North American Rainbow 6 scene. Since his move to coaching in early 2018, Lycan has earned high praise from his teammates and opponents. A calming, sensible, mature presence combined with a sharp understanding of the game make him one of the best in the community at what he does. A recent World Champion, Spacestation prevailed under his leadership at the 2020 Six Invitational to win the event and hoist the coveted hammer. Considered by many to be the Rainbow 6 Dad, Lycan also dives into his personal life and how he feels we, as a scene, can hold ourselves to higher standards. It's always a pleasure to speak with Lycan and this episode was no exception.
If you follow the Rainbow 6 Siege community on twitter then you've probably heard of Jacob "Suzaku" Faberman. While Suzaku may be most well-known for his hilarious twitter content, there's far more to him and the insight he has on every facet of our scene. Candid, outspoken, and always funny, Suzaku's perspective is vastly different than the perspectives of all the guests before him. Whether it be from his close personal friendships with numerous professional players to his brief run in Challenger League on the infamous Adventure Force team, Suzaku spends many hours humorously dissecting our community while giving his thoughts on where we've been and where we're headed.
There's no question that Niclas "Pengu" Mouritzen is Rainbow 6 Siege's biggest star. The 23 year old Dane has by far and away the most impressive résumé of anyone in professional Siege. 4 Pro League Championships; 2 Six Invitational World Championships; 1 Major Championship; half a dozen National titles; 200,000 twitter followers, 600,000 Youtube subscribers; nearly 1 million Twitch followers; his own in-game charm; #1 in money earned/won as a competitor; featured in a handful of documentaries, and so on. The journey to the top wasn't without its fair share of drama, though. Over the years, Pengu has found himself in hot water for comments he has made about other players, teams, and companies. As the game and scene have grown, so too has Pengu and while he is still as brash and outspoken as ever, he has made a dedicated effort to be more of an ambassador for our esport. The longest Six On Six yet, Pengu goes into G2's recent struggles, his thoughts on the utility-dump meta, the drama with Shaiiko, and so much more.
Rainbow 6 Siege's UK scene has produced many big names over the years yet Matthew "meepeY" Sharples stands out as one of the biggest. Although his entry into competitive gaming was somewhat reluctant, meepeY found early success in the EU community, climbing the ranks and competing on some of Europe's top teams. No stranger to setback and heartbreak, meepeY and his teams have always found a way to bounce back, conquering their next set of challenges with a ferociousness that few other teams could match. Despite having strong performances on LAN, meepeY's luck would run out on the eve of the EU League with Team Secret failing to qualify. Thankfully for meepeY his knowledge of the game and his strong leadership skills allowed him to make a graceful transition to coach. He now sits behind the bench guiding North America's eUnited squad. Always a pleasure to chat with given his insight into our scene, meepeY is undoubtedly one of our finest guests.
There's no question that Ghassan "Milosh" Finge is one of the hardest working broadcasters in Rainbow 6 Esports. Uniquely prepared for Rainbow 6 from his time spent as Battlefield commentator, Milosh's road to R6 caster was long and often fraught with challenges. He persisted, though, and became a full-time member of casting team in early 2018. Since then, Milosh has appeared at every major R6 LAN event, originally as a caster but more recently as a host. Swapping to hosting has allowed Milosh to flourish in his role and become Rainbow 6 Siege's main host for all events. One of the most interesting and insightful characters in R6, Milosh shares many stories with us over the course of 3 hours.
Rafael "Mav" Loureiro is one of Brazil's most legendary players across both Battlefield and Rainbow 6 Siege. Few players have gone pro in multiple FPS titles so Mav is among an elite group. One of Brazil's most respected players, Mav also has the distinction of having spent most of his R6 career with the same team - Fontt/FaZe Clan. Despite his teams always dominating within Brazil, Mav struggled to find success internationally. After a long run of respectable finishes, Mav was removed from the FaZe Clan roster and has joined Team Liquid as a coach/analyst/6th player. While we're sad to see Mav step away from being an active competitor we're excited to see what he does next. LATAM is an amazing region that is often overlooked or ignored by most English-speaking R6 fans. We hope this podcast helps to highlight an incredible region in R6 esports.
Not known for spending much time in the spotlight, Aleksi "UUNO" Työppönen has quietly amassed a big following as one of the top Finnish players in Rainbow 6 Siege. The pressure was on for UUNO the moment he stepped foot in R6 esports, making his debut at the 2018 Six Invitational on the legendary ENCE roster. It wasn't an easy entry for UUNO as ENCE got knocked out of SI2018 by regional rivals PENTA and would then be relegated from Pro League the next season. Despite some setbacks in his early career, UUNO (and ENCE) would get redemption by qualifying for Pro League once more...only for UUNO to seek greener pastures. After a relatively short stint on LeStream, G2 came for yet another ENCE alumni and the rest is history. UUNO is now one of the core members of G2 and has grown into a leadership role over that time. We were fortunate to get an in-depth interview about UUNO's experiences starting out on PS4, battling his way to the top of Pro League, and the struggles that come from a fan base as large and as vocal as G2's.
Davide "FoxA" Bucci and Matthew "Achieved" Solomon have been around the North American professional scene since the beginning yet traveled very different paths on their way to the top. For FoxA it was immediate success followed by a brief period in the wilderness before returning to one of the best teams in the region. On Achieved's end, he spent many seasons grinding through Challenger League before his hard work paid off, finally landing a spot in Pro League then getting picked up by TSM a season later. Six On Six is lucky to have two experienced and talented players join us for our 12th episode as we look back on the NA Major and first stage of the NA League.
You'd be hard-pressed to find a harder working content creator within Rainbow 6 Siege than Get Flanked. Over the past 5+ years, Get Flanked has established himself as one of the most prominent educational R6 Youtubers with his insightful videos, constant suggestions, and his fabled Pro And The Potato series.
