At the time, they blamed \u201cuncertainty\u201d over the future of Apex as an esport, but it seems those fears now seem to have been done away with. \u201cApex Legends has now solidified itself, in my mind, as an IP that will be around for the next decade \u2014 if handled properly,\u201d 100T founder and CEO Matthew \u2018Nadeshot\u2019 Haag said in the announcement video. \u201cThis is a team we know can perform at the highest level consistently, and we\u2019re hoping we can give them the support they need to win even more in the future.\u201d Dropped a 20 bomb first game with 100 Thieves, Dub pic.twitter.com\/z3qGywybOz \u2014 OXG Vein (@fpsvein) October 8, 2021 We still don\u2019t know when the newly minted 100 Thieves Apex Legends team will start competing, but most likely they\u2019ll be joining the Apex Legends Global Series (ALGS) along with other top-tier NA esports teams. Apex hasn\u2019t seen as popular an esports scene as other games like Overwatch, CS:GO, LoL, and others, but if this 100 Thieves news is a sign of the times, more orgs could be following suit soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
