“Shame on the Owner”- Ex Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Pro Calls Nadeshot Out for Being Negligent

Update: ESL asked Nadeshot not to broadcast the match

About 20 minutes before Nadeshot ended his stream, he informed his viewers that ESL contacted him. He said, “I just got word from ESL that I’m not allowed to stream this, I mean broadcast this.” He was visibly disappointed when he realised he cannot watch the game on stream. He expressed his understanding on the issue, saying that it makes sense from a business point of view. However, since it was the last CS:GO game of his team, he certainly was emotional. The fact that he couldn’t watch the game was the reason he switched to Cold War. He went on to play the game for about another 15 minutes before ending the stream.

Professional Counter-Strike: Global Offensive team from North America, 100 Thieves, recently announced that they have come to the end of their journey in the Esport title. Matthew “Nadeshot” Haag, the organization’s founder and CEO, made the announcement a week ago. As a result, they will no longer take part in CS: GO tournaments. However, the team completed their remaining tournaments before quitting the game.

The last tournament for 100 Thieves was the Intel Extreme Masters – New York 2020. 100T wanted to exit on a high and thus worked hard to reach the finals. They were playing Brazilian team FURIA in the final, in a best of 5 matches. The team lost the game 1-3 after winning the first round and losing the next three.

Nadeshot played the new Call of Duty while 100 Thieves played their final game

ESL streamed the final of the Intel Extreme Masters – New York 2020 on Twitch last night. Everyone expected Nadeshot to support his team in their final game of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. The expectations were even higher considering the team had managed to fight hard and reach the finals.

While the match was going on, however, Nadeshot was streaming Warzone and Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. He did switch to the match in between and had it running on his second monitor the whole time, but some people weren’t pleased with this. Considering it was his team’s final match, and it was also a final of the tournament, they wanted him to make it a farewell 100T deserved.

Chad Burchill, a former professional CS: GO player, tweeted to express his disappointment on the matter. Whether FURIA was the better team or it was the neglect by their CEO, 100T did not live up to the expectations of their fans. However, no one is blaming the team. They are all projecting their disappointment on Nadeshot for not being there for his team.

100T are currently focusing on Valorant. They have built a stable roster and are grinding to become the best American team in the game.
