100 Next

100 Next was a League of Legends team connected to the wider 100 Thieves organisation, an American esports and lifestyle brand that became one of the most recognisable names in North American competitive gaming. Operating as a secondary or developmental entity within that structure, 100 Next has since been disbanded, and it is best understood today as a former part of the broader 100 Thieves competitive project.

Background

The 100 Thieves brand rose to prominence through its combination of professional competition, content creation and apparel, establishing a strong cultural footprint in the esports world. Within that framework, satellite and academy-style teams played an important role, giving the organisation a means to scout, develop and rotate talent beneath its primary competitive roster. 100 Next fits within this lineage of supporting teams that fed into the larger 100 Thieves ecosystem.

Role of Development Teams

Secondary teams like 100 Next have traditionally served as proving grounds. They provide emerging players with structured, competitive repetitions in an environment closer to the professional level than open ladder play, while allowing coaching staff to evaluate prospects over time. This model has been a fixture of North American League of Legends, where the depth of an organisation is often measured not only by its main roster but by the pipeline it builds around it.

Legacy

Now disbanded, 100 Next no longer competes, and specific details of its runs are limited within the available record. What remains clear is its association with a marquee organisation during a period when 100 Thieves was expanding its presence across multiple titles. As a former team, it represents one chapter in the constantly shifting structure of developmental League of Legends in North America, where teams are frequently created, rebranded and retired as organisations adapt to changing league formats and roster strategies.
