100 Thieves will hope that this new injection of talent will lift their pro team to greater heights within competitive Fortnite, as things have stagnated as of late.

Although their roster did have respectable talent, it never come close to the firepower that the likes of Ghost Gaming, FaZe Clan, and Team Liquid can boast.
