100 Thieves is an American esports organization based in Los Angeles. The org launched in November 2017, with former professional Call of Duty player Matthew "Nadeshot" Haag as its founder. The club entered Counter-Strike on December 13, 2017 with the Brazilian ex-Immortals roster, but that lineup never played an official match under the tag. Later, 100 Thieves returned by buying out the Renegades core, reached the IEM Beijing 2019 final, left CS:GO in 2020, and came back in CS2 in November 2025.
Today, 100 Thieves are not just a team. They are a major gaming brand with media, merch, and several rosters across different titles.
100 Thieves achievements
100 Thieves' best Counter-Strike results came during their run with the Australian Renegades core. The team never won a Major or lifted the biggest trophy, but they were a steady playoff threat and could go toe-to-toe with top teams at big events.

100 Thieves roster history
In Counter-Strike, 100 Thieves have had three main chapters: the Brazilian start in 2017, the Australian team from 2019 to 2020, and the European CS2 project from 2025 to 2026. These chapters are very different. The first one fell apart before it got going, the second brought the team its best results, and the third is built around experienced stars and young riflers.
First roster achievements
100 Thieves announced their first CS:GO roster on December 13, 2017, after buying it out from Immortals. The lineup included Henrique "HEN1" Teles, Lucas "LUCAS1" Teles, Vito "kNgV-" Giuseppe, Lincoln "fnx" Lau, and Bruno "BIT" Fukuda Lima. On paper, it looked strong, as some of the players had reached the PGL Major Krakow 2017 final with Immortals.
But that roster never played for 100 Thieves. The team withdrew from the ELEAGUE Major 2018 because of visa issues, and the project quickly shut down after the controversial events between kNgV- and journalist Thorin. Because of that, the first roster has no real achievements under the 100 Thieves tag.
2020 roster
The most successful 100 Thieves roster came together after the Renegades core joined. The team fielded Aaron "AZR" Ward (captain), Justin "jks" Savage (rifler), Joakim "jkaem" Myrbostad (rifler), Jay "Liazz" Tregillgas (rifler), and Sean "Gratisfaction" Kaiwai (AWPer). Aleksandar "kassad" Trifunovic was the coach, with Chet "Chet" Singh later taking over.
In 2020, the roster took second place at ESL Pro League Season 12: North America and IEM New York 2020: North America.
100 Thieves — a professional esports organization from the United States.
Current 100 Thieves roster — Håvard "rain" Nygaard (captain and rifler), Nicolai "dev1ce" Reedtz (AWPer), Alex "poiii" Nyholm Sundgren (rifler), William "sirah" Kjaersgaard (rifler), and Andre "Ag1l" Gil (rifler). The team is coached by Lukas "gla1ve" Rossander.
