Will 100 Thieves ever feature in a CS: GO major? – A question Nadeshot will answer 

During their weekly podcast, Courage asked Nade about his thoughts on participating in CS: GO tournaments. Given that Valve recently released CS: GO 2, it was time for the franchise to think of featuring in the majors soon. And well, the game was one of the classics, so that came as an added bonus. 

Here’s what Matthew had to say about it: “I would love to get in counter strike. But right now the state of esports – everything is so expensive. Right-sizing when it comes to player salaries, and expectations that agents and managers have for what we’re willing to pay.” Keeping that in mind he said, ‘Unless something changes drastically around the economics of what the expectations are from the organizations, I can’t make any guarantees.’

Then, he went on to mention CS: GO and how Valve was doing a fantastic job of running the game, but there were some problems here and there. Especially with the majors traveling across the world, asking players to move, boot camp there for a long period of time, and if there were any practice, it would just be against the same team.
