The Mkers’ success at the Rainbow Six Siege Italian Cup, which saw the first edition close in November 2022, was just a taste of what the Italian organization will now have to complete to bring the tricolor flag under the spotlight of the export scene: Will they be able to qualify for the R6S Six Invitational?
The team is already known in Italy after the historic qualification for the Six Invitational 2021, then finished in twelfth place. The roster is quite different now, given the replacement of Pietro “Scatto” Scattolin and Sasha “Sasha” Michelizzi with Mario “Dora” Manzato and David “Sorry” Caprio. However, the experience of Alessio “Aqui” Aquilano, Luigi “Gemini” Ferrigno and Lorenzo “Lollo” Masuccio will be felt and, with the two “new recruits”, the quest could be completed a second time.
The international competition of the Ubisoft tactical FPS will see the start of the Closed Qualifier of the Six Invitational 2023 on January 28th, or in just three days. There will be only one slot available for four highly respected teams: i Russians of the Outsiders they are returning from a final at the Six Invitational 2022 in Paris, then lost against the TSM who, moreover, did not even pass the North American Closed Qualifier; or again, the European formation Team Secret should not be underestimated, as well as i Natus Vincere who are counting on the Italian Edoardo “T3b” Tregliaex MACKO Esports.
One ticket to Montreal up for grabs, four fierce teams, who will win?
