Q: What will Rudi and frenya bring to 100 Thieves VALORANT?
Zikz: "Rudi and frenya will bring a fresh perspective to an already established system and be primarily focused on scouting and anti-stratting."
Q: Why did they stand out to you?
Zikz: "Rudi and frenya stood out to me due to their strategic understanding and attention to small details when looking through their applications."
Q:Will our new assistant coaches be in Los Angeles?
Zikz: "Our new assistant coaches will be remote for the time being and will be flown out on a per-needs basis for key timings throughout the season."
Q: Can you share why 100 Thieves has opted out of offseason tournaments?
Zikz:"This year after experiencing some burnout during the later half of the year, along with retaining the majority of our roster, we've decided to invest our time more into rest and relaxation prior to season start giving ourselves about 2 months of practice before the season begins. We would love to have participated in a tournament in late Nov/early Dec, but no such opportunity arose for us to participate in."
Q: What can fans of 100 Thieves look forward to?
Zikz: "Fans can be excited to see new faces in the North American Valorant coaching scene as we feel the open call was a success in finding two very talented individuals in terms of their strategic understanding of the game."
