120. Nadeshot’s Journey to Building 100 Thieves into an eSports Empire

What's up Rock Nation! Today we welcome an absolute gaming GOAT, Nadeshot! Nadeshot went from pro gamer, to building one of the largest esports brands in the world with 100 Thieves. In this episode, we talk about everything from going from what the early days of pro gaming were like, his recent 1v1 vs. Banks and what that meant for the gaming community, doing over $1.5 million in sales in an hour with 100 Thieves apparel, and what the future holds for himself and 100 Thieves.
