kNg kicked from 100 Thieves following innapropriate comments
Following innapropriate Twitter comments towards esports journalist Duncan "Thorin" Shields, Vito "kNg" Giuseppe has been officially kicked from 100 Thieves without even having made his debut for the organization.
Thorin made a joke about ELEAGUE giving 100 Thieves's rooms to Luminosity "by mistake" after their captain Gabriel "FalleN" Toledo commented that the room next to him smelled of marijuana and had loud music playing.
kNg did not take lighty to Thorin joking about his team's reputation as supposed party animals, asking him if he was sober when he made the comment or if he said that "after you make love to your boyfriend."
In their Twitter announcement, 100 Thieves commented that "The offensive and inappropriate language that was used last Sunday by kNg has no place in this organization."
KNg was also kicked from Immortals last September after he threatened to kill CLG's former in-game-leader Pujan "FNS" Mehta for yet another Twitter joke.
Rumors say that SK Gaming's João "felps" Vasconcellos will be kNg's likely replacement as his contract with the organization ends shortly after the upcoming Major.
The prospective roster of 100 Thieves would be as follows:
- Henrique "HEN1" Teles
- Lucas "LUCAS1" Teles
- Lincoln "fnx" Lao
- Bruno "bit" Lima
- João "felps" Vasconcellos
- Rodolfo "bLecker" Blecker (Manager/Coach)
