Bang rejoins 100 Thieves for the VCT 2026 season

100 Thieves has officially re-signed Controller player Sean "bang" Bezerra ahead of the VCT 2026 season, reuniting their VCT 2023 core.

100 Thieves kept most of their VCT 2024 lineup intact, with the only change being bang’s switch over to Sentinels in 2025. Yet, despite this lack of change, 100 Thieves were unable to replicate their strong form seen throughout the 2024 season. Now, the team have set their sights on making a push back to the top with the reintroduction of bang.

Bang enjoyed a successful season domestically with Sentinels, qualifying for every single VCT international event in 2025. Unfortunately, the team was unable to replicate their domestic success on the international stage. While the team achieved 5th-6th place at VALORANT Champions Tour 2025 - Masters Toronto 2025, they finished their 2025 season with an underwhelming 13th-16th place finish at VALORANT Champions Tour 2025 - Valorant Champions.

Bang back home with 100 Thieves

Back with 100 Thieves, bang will be looking to transfer his experience internationally with Sentinels to his new old team. 100 Thieves struggled to find success throughout the VCT 2025 season and were unable to qualify for any VCT international event. They will look to reunite their 2023-2024 core, which won VCT 2024 - Americas Stage 1 and finished fourth at VCT 2024 - Masters Shanghai.

Bang will be reunited with longtime teammates Matthew "Cryocells" Panganiban and Sandra "Leviathan" Cabeza. Additionally, the 100 Thieves lineup is rounded out by the ex-TSM trio of Timothée "Timotino" Dupont, Jordan "vora" Pulwer, and Laurynas "Nbs" Kisielius, who serves as the Head Coach for this team. It will be interesting to see how this new iteration of 100 Thieves performs in the VCT 2026 season.
