On the homepage 100 Thieves, CEO Matthew “Nadeshot” Haag announced: “We have eliminated BabyJ and EC1S from our Valorant squad. Both are talented players and I hope they will continue to stand firm on a professional career. It's hard to say that this is not a decision based on the results of the team.”
“Our decision depends on the philosophy, culture, approach to the match and thinking. I only feel that 100 Thieves cannot sit still to wait for the inevitable results. From the players, the personality of the players and their coordination does not really match each other,” Nadeshot CEO closed.
To replace BabyJ and EC1S, 100 Thieves borrowed Sean “Bang” Bezerra from Team Solomid and Noah “JCstani” Smith of Pioneers. The fact that Babyj and EC1S was quickly given past has surprised many famous characters in North American Valorant. At week 1 of VCT 2022: Na Stage 1 Challengers, 100 Thievves suffered 2 consecutive defeats against Cloud9 and The Guard.
Notably, it is to mention the salt loss 0-13 against The Guard on the Ascent map. At this time, 100 Thieves are temporarily ranked 5th in Group A with a record of 0-2, equal to Evil Geniuses but more than the opponent about the secondary index. Meanwhile, The Guard is temporarily ranked on Cloud9 and leads Group A due to a better sub -index (+22 compared to +13).
Information BabyJ and EC1S broke up with 100 Thieves also made North American valorant wave. Sentinels's captain Shahzeb “Shahzam” was shocked on his personal stream. In addition, the famous female MC of VCT and Masters, Geo frankly criticized Nadeshot CEO “too cruel” when changing personnel after only 1 week of playing at VCT 2022: Na Stage 1 Challengers.
