Rainbow Six: Siege esports team M80's head coach, Matheus 'Budega' Figueiredo, and team manager, Igor ‘Vivas‘ Vivas, have been "ejected" from the 2025 Six Invitational , following an "altercation" that was partly caught on camera. The incident occurred after M80 had lost a match 2-1 to DarkZero Esports, and saw Budega shouting at members of the DarkZero team and at
one stage having to be physically restrained from continuing to remonstrate with one of the players.
Budega can be heard shouting his head off in the background of , and the beginnings of the altercation (choice commentary line: "who says esports is boring?"). The incident occurred in the third and final map, with the match level, after DarkZero was awarded a free round due a rule violation from Budega. When DarkZero closed out the match, Budega started shouting and got in the face of various opposition players, and appears to barge into the back of DarkZero player Nathan ‘Nafe’ Sharp, with officials intervening.
Budega was removed from the venue almost immediately, swiftly followed by Vivas. Budega confirmed after the incident he had been warned twice (in posts that have subsequently been deleted, but are easily found), and went into self-justification mode. "A member of BLAST’s staff is making false accusations about me, saying that I physically intimidated him," says Budega, who can be seen on the livestream getting physically close to other competitors, gesticulating wildly and remonstrating. "That’s a lie and the fact that someone has the courage to lie about that makes me sick."
M80 continues to compete in the event's lower bracket. One of its players, Leonardo ‘kyno’ Figueiredo, assured fans [[link]] that the team are "" and now have a fire in their nether regions (might want to get that checked).
