NRG s0m teases about switching Valorant teams

In his latest Twitch stream after dropping from Valorant Champions 2023, NRG s0m made some shocking comments. The pro player claimed he, along with his IGL FNS, is not part of NRG’s starting Valorant roster. Furthermore, he claimed they both will be streaming full-time until any other team is willing to pick them.

But he did not have to wait long for a new team as he quickly got a call from the co-owner of 100 Thieves, Nadeshot. In a very cryptic call, s0m can be heard stating, “Nadeshot! I haven’t signed it yet. I’ll get it done tonight.” This remark from s0m led many fans to believe he is switching from NRG to 100 Thieves.

However, the pro player has yet to confirm the significance of the reveals he made on stream. He has been a member of the NRG team since joining Valorant in 2020. Furthermore, he has become the star player on the roster, which makes it highly unlikely that NRG will drop him.
