Rumor: gla1ve Could Become Head Coach at 100 Thieves

Time: 2025-12-03 11:30 (UTC)

Former captain of  Astralis  and  ENCE , Lukas "gla1ve" Rossander, might join  100 Thieves  as the head coach, sources from HLTV report.

This would be a significant boost for the North American organization, marking their return to Counter-Strike after a five-year hiatus.

Background on 100 Thieves ' Return

The organization 100 Thieves left CS in 2020 due to visa issues and roster challenges, disbanding the Australian lineup from  Renegades . They recently announced their comeback, thanks to a partnership with Roobet aimed at reaching the tier-1 level. Right after the announcement, rumors circulated about acquiring the core from  GamerLegion ; CEO Nicholas Reber confirmed the talks but noted the absence of active player transfer negotiations.

Transfer and Roster Details

Gla1ve concluded his playing career two weeks ago, announcing his transition to coaching after being benched in ENCE (his last lan was a victory at Elisa Masters Espoo 2024). He will become the second key player after Håvard "rain" Nygaard, who transferred from FaZe last month. The staff includes Graham "messioso" Pitt as the head of CS operations and Sean "seang@res" Gares as the head of the FPS division. They are seeking a mix of veterans and talent to compete in majors.

This transfer will strengthen 100 Thieves as a serious competitor to FaZe,  Vitality , and G2, especially with rain and gla1ve at the core. The return of the organization with a strong background and Roobet's investments will raise the bar for NA, which has long lacked leaders. Expect roster announcements in the coming weeks—this could shake up the transfer market.
