Scooter Braun defends Nadeshot over NICKMERCS\u2019 100 Thieves exit 100 ThievesDuring TechCrunch Disrupt SF 2019, Scooter Braun defended 100 Thieves CEO Matthew \u2018Nadeshot\u2018 Haag\u2019s handling of the departure of Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2018 Kolcheff from the organization. Back in May 2019, NICKMERCS left 100 Thieves after dropping many hints about it up until that point. In the midst of his exit, he took several shots at Nadeshot, saying he broke promises made as a friend and business partner. Nick explained he wanted nothing to do with the 100 Thieves CEO anymore, and days later, he joined rival organization FaZe Clan. Nadeshot hasn\u2019t gone very in-depth with what happened behind the scenes, and didn\u2019t seem like he was going to at TechCrunch, but Braun stepped in to defend the CEO. \u201cMatt never broke his word on anything that he did,\u201d he said. \u201cYou know, I think sometimes people use their platform in this world to say whatever they want to say as long as they have an audience to say it and sometimes those things aren\u2019t based in fact.\u201d He explains he was proud of Nadeshot for not saying anything about all the drama, but instead remaining silent and taking the high road. \u201cSome of the things that were said publicly that Matt never responded to, I was proud that he didn\u2019t respond because he did the right thing and let the organization speak for itself.\u201d (Discussion begins at the 21:00 mark) Scooter Braun entered 100 Thieves as an investor in October 2018, joining a star-studded lineup of other investors that also features music superstar Aubrey \u2018Drake\u2019 Graham.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
