100 Thieves on Twitter have announced the addition of Ethan “⁠Ethan⁠” Arnold to their Valorant Division. 

Evil Genuises’s Ethan has transitioned his FPS career as a professional Valorant for 100 Thieves, the 20year-old North American announced today through a TwitLonger, which was indeed short, describing the former’s decision on his switch.

Formerly of NRG, Ethan and Co were acquired by Evil Geniuses back in September 2019. Under EG, he steered his team to their first ever championship at the ESL One New York 2019 followed by StarSeries i-League Season 8, cs_summit 6 and ESL One Cologne 2020 in North America. Earlier during his time at NRG, the team went on to win IEM Shanghai 2018 and cs_summit 3 under the leadership of Damian ‘daps’ Steele who was later replaced by Peter ‘stanislaw’ Jarguz. In 2019, HLTV.org recognized him as the 19th best player in the world after his heroics at a plethora of events in the past.

At 100 Thieves, Ethan will be replacing Quan “dicey” Tran on the active roster and the same has also been reported by Jake ‘JakeSucky’ Lucky on Twitter. With Dicey’s departure from 100 Thieves, the latter team would now be needing Ethan to take upon the Jett/Operator role.

Ethan added, 

I will be leaving CS and officially moving over to Valorant starting today. I’ve met many people through CS that I can now call friends and I’m extremely grateful for that. I’ve also made unforgettable memories that some people could only dream of experiencing. The one thing I ask is if you’ve supported me this long, you follow me into the next chapter of my career and I promise I will not let you down. I’m excited for this new challenge and I can’t wait to give it my all over at 100Thieves.

With this addition, 100T are now:

  • Spencer “Hiko” Martin
  • Nicholas “nitr0” Cannella
  • Joshua “steel” Nissan
  • Peter “Asuna” Mazuryk
  • Ethan “Ethan” Arnold
  • Quan “dicey” Tran (Benched)
  • Hector “FrosT” Rosario (Head Coach)

While EG CS:GO are now down to 4 players:

  • Peter “⁠stanislaw⁠” Jarguz
  • Tarik “⁠tarik⁠” Celik
  • Vincent “⁠Brehze⁠” Cayonte
  • Tsvetelin “⁠CeRq⁠” Dimitrov
  • Brazil Wilton “⁠zews⁠” Prado (Head coach)
