Nadeshot reveals why he turned down FaZe co-ownership offer YouTube: NadeshotCall of Duty and League of Legends, and also have an extremely successful apparel wing that regularly sells out minutes after release. According to the former CoD pro though, 100 Thieves very nearly didn\u2019t exist, as he revealed that he was offered the opportunity to own a stake in FaZe Clan shortly after his departure from OpTic Gaming. In the June 20 episode of his Selfmade podcast, Nadeshot revealed that after exiting OpTic back in 2015, he received an offer to join the ownership structure of FaZe Clan, and that guest Justine \u2018iJustine\u2019 Ezarik and her sister Jenna convinced him to not to. \u201cI\u2019ve never talked about this before, I was offered a pretty sizeable equity stake in FaZe Clan,\u201d the 26-year-old stated. \u201cI left OpTic, I was on my own, I\u2019m still good friends with a lot of the guys over there, and I could have been a very significant owner of FaZe Clan.\u201d \u201cI love what they\u2019re doing, and they have a very unique spin on esports and content. But [iJustine] and Jenna were always like \u2018No, don\u2019t do it, red flag. Do it on your own. It\u2019s not yours, that legacy has already been created.\u2019\u201d Nadeshot eventually agreed with the Ezariks\u2019 opinion, creating 100 Thieves which has grown into a worldwide name in esports and content. The organization has disappointed in League of Legends, their first esports title, throughout 2019 with extremely poor results, but their Call of Duty squad\u2019s back-to-back major wins set them up as favorites for the World Championships which take place in August. The landscape of esports could have been very different though, especially if Nadeshot had chosen to link up with FaZe Clan after his OpTic departure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
