The announcement also confirmed that Henrique "HEN1" Teles, who initially joined on loan from Imperial last year, is now a permanent member of the squad. The experienced AWPer brings much to the table for the Brazilian team, thanks to his highly-decorated career spanning more than a decade.
Marcelo "nyezin" Ramos arrives after stints with paiN Academy and Case Esports, where he demonstrated his potential with a solid 1.06 rating during his tenure. His performances at the Perfect World Shanghai Major Americas RMR marked him as one of Case’s standout players. He also helped paiN win the Global Esports Tour Rio de Janeiro 2024.
Pedro "betinho" Umberto also joins the team from Case, where he served as head coach for 18 months. The 23-year-old is no stranger to RED Canids however, having coached the team briefly in early 2023.
The brand new RED Canids roster has already made its debut in the ESL Challenger League South America today, where they lost the opening match to UNO MILLE.
What did the players say?
nyezin took to X to share his excitement about joining RED Canids, announcing, “That’s it guys, now I’m @REDCanids and I’m very happy to be able to represent this organization and play alongside people I’ve always looked up to. Know that on my part there will be no lack of dedication and effort. Thank you to everyone who always cheers for me and supports me.”
