T. Kathiravan Nagarajan plays under the name Rico for Welt Esports and is listed as an assaulter in the published BMSD 2026 lineup. He arrived on the roster on 20 April 2026 alongside DragonOP and PokoWNL.

Welt Esports' two published titles, Reload Arena and the Winter Premier League 2025, were both won in late 2025, months before his arrival. Welt Esports is part of the 48-team BGMI Showdown 2026 lineup, competing in Group B. They belong to the team's record from an earlier lineup.

Earlier in 2026, Rico appeared on the Rising Esports lineup at Blizzard Battlegrounds alongside DragonOP and PokoWNL, with the squad reaching the semi-final stage according to the event's published participant list. That semi-final run came months before his April 2026 Welt Esports entry. His listed individual honours include the Man Of The Maps award at Titans Rising in 2024. His years active and career statistics do not appear in verifiable sources.

Rico's earlier career began with Autobotz Esports in October 2023, where he placed 15th at BMPS 2023. He joined Team Tamilas in October 2024 and won the THUG Invitational 2024, also taking the Man Of The Maps award at Titans Rising, then added the OneGame Pro Championship Season 2 title in March 2025. Short spells with Meta Ninza and Team Tamilas again followed in late 2025, and he spent the months before Welt on Rising Esports.
