100 Thieves is one of the best teams participating in the ALGS 2025 Championship. The team currently consists of iiTzTimmy, Genburten, and Dezignful. After Moist Esports was disbanded, Timmy and Dezignful got the opportunity to migrate to 100 Thieves, while Genburten was picked up as he was dropped from Team Falcons.

The team consistently showed great results while preparing for the Year 4 Championship. Since the team features one of the best MnK (Mouse and Keyboard) and Controller players, participants and viewers should look out for 100 Thieves during the tournament.
