History
On November 6, 2020, 100 Thieves announced their expansion in Call of Duty League, replacing the OpTic Gaming Los Angeles.[1]
The team did not obtain a spot in the inaugural CDL season, which shocked and saddened the community.[2] The re-addition of 100 Thieves to professional Call of Duty was a welcomed homecoming for the organization. This also marked the return of former professional player turned CEO Matthew Haag, to the scene where his career started.[3]
