100 Thieves were struggling heading into their first VCT Americas Super Week matchup today versus KRÜ, and the entire season looked like it was on the verge of a collapse. However, the NA roster managed it’s biggest win yet since Cryocells joined, and a necessary one ahead of tougher obstacles,
KRÜ, buffed by the appearance of founder and football legend Sergio Agüero, stomped 100T on Ascent via a 13-4 win to start the series, as 100T looked uncoordinated with their attacks and retakes, and the players looked like they lacked confidence with poor individual playmaking. After a tough start to their own map choice of Split, 100T rallied with one of their best defensive halves of the season, forcing overtime and a map three.
