Rainbow Six Siege Pro league caster Michael “KiXSTAr” Stockley passed away on Monday, October 11, at the age of 24. The partner of the young caster, Parker “INTERRO” Mackay, shared the statement from his family on Twitter.

Joining the R6 community by playing for Team Orbit in 2016, Micheal later moved on to streaming. His first event as a caster was the third season of the R6 Pro League first year.

KiXSTAr was one of the most beloved and talented members of the Rainbow Six Siege Pro league talent team. Last year, he was awarded the Esports Colour Caster of the Year award at the Esports Awards 2020. He was also nominated as a finalist for this year’s version of the award.
