100 Thieves were the first North American team to be eliminated from the 2021 League of Legends World Championship after a disappointing loss to the LCK’s T1.  It was an impressive early game for the Thieves, one that kept them in contention with T1. Although T1 started with the first blood, 100T quickly reacted by initiating a play in the bot lane. This play consisted of a four-man dive, utilizing Abbedagge’s teleport accompanied by a gank from Closer. Even though they initiated the play, the situation looked grim for the

One of North America’s strongest and longest-lasting teams is going to look radically different come next season. Quincy Crew, whose core players have stuck together even through disbanded organizations, will likely see “significant changes” according to Jack Chen, manager for Quincy Crew. “Most of us have been together for awhile and it’s time for people to explore other opportunities,” said Chen. “There are no hard feelings, no one is being kicked, it’s just time to see what else is out there.” Its hard typing these words, but there will be

The VALORANT Champions Tour North American Last Chance Qualifier has been postponed for at least 12 days and will take place online.  The Last Chance Qualifier was initially paused yesterday after two members of FaZe Clan tested positive for COVID. The entire FaZe roster was reportedly going to play from home, while their opponent Rise would’ve played from the stage. Both FaZe members, Andrej “babybay” Francisty and Corey Nigra, have since tested negative.  The remainder of the matches for the day were canceled, and the matches scheduled for today were also

Virtus.pro and Liquid are set to face off in the BLAST Premier Fall Showdown quarter-finals on Saturday after coming out on top of their respective matches in the round of 16 against underdogs Movistar Riders and 9z. Despite setting off with an impressive defense on Vertigo, Virtus.pro ended up having to fend off a resilient Movistar Riders side, who came into the tournament fresh off qualification for PGL Major Stockholm on the back of a surprising run to fifth place at IEM Fall. Liquid will take on Virtus.pro on Saturday

Evil Geniuses were one of the top teams throughout the entire 2021 Dota Pro Circuit season, finishing second at both Majors and racking up the most DPC points ahead of The International 10. But none of that mattered to Vici Gaming today, who eliminated the final North American team in epic fashion to make it into the top eight.  This was arguably the closest series that we’ve seen in the lower bracket at TI10 yet, with EG taking the first game in just 22 minutes. Many expected VG to potentially compound

The North American VCT Last Chance Qualifier was supposed to be a pure clash of some of the best teams in the continent that haven’t made it into VALORANT Champions yet—but 100 Thieves’ Nicholas “nitr0” Cannella isn’t fully satisifed. The event has been tarnished with a plethora of server issues, a controversy surrounding COVID-19 tests, and overall playing conditions, which led Riot Games to postpone three matches yesterday in order to “implement solutions that will allow the LCQ to continue safely and without compromising competitive integrity.” 100 Thieves played two
