100 Thieves Reveal Likely Debut Date for New CS2 Roster Featuring rain, gla1ve, and device

100 Thieves’ new CS2 roster starring Håvard rain Nygaard, Lukas gla1ve Rossander, and Nicolai device Reedtz is expected to make its competitive debut in February 2026. According to Graham messioso Pitt, head of the organization’s CS2 division, the team’s first official match will most likely take place during the open qualifiers for IEM Atlanta 2026.

The information was revealed in a public exchange on X, where ESL and FACEIT staff member Mark Winter asked about the timing of the roster’s first appearance. Pitt responded that the IEM Atlanta open qualifiers are currently viewed as the most realistic starting point for the lineup.

Messioso took charge of 100 Thieves’ CS2 operations immediately after the organization announced its return to Counter-Strike. He was later joined by Sean seang@res Gares, who will oversee all shooter-related divisions within the club. The first confirmed addition to the roster was rain, who recently departed FaZe Clan, and by January 6 the lineup had been fully completed.

100 Thieves previously exited the Counter-Strike scene in 2020, with the organization’s final roster at the time consisting of Australian players led by Aleksandar kassad Trifunović. The new squad brings together players from multiple countries and currently holds no VRS points, meaning the team will need to build its ranking through open qualifiers and online competitions.
