Why didn’t 100 Thieves sign yay? Nadeshot speaks out on fitting Cryocells into roster
100 Thieves, one of the five North American teams that made the Americas partnership in VALORANT, became the first organization to make a blockbuster signing when it inked former XSET star duelist/Chamber Matthew “Cryocells” Panganiban to replace William “Will” Cheng.
Moments after Cryocells’ signing became official, 100 Thieves CEO Matthew “Nadeshog” Haag revealed on a live stream that his organization considered signing OpTic Gaming superstar Jaccob “yay” Whiteaker for 2023, but the organization ultimately decided to get Cryocells instead because he’s the “best fit” for the squad led by Brenden “stellar” McGrath.
