100 Thieves continues the whirlwind of signings by adding another Fortnite pro to the roster, this time it’s 15-year-old Arkhram and he will now bump the number of World Cup qualified players on the roster to three.

The year 2019 has been very kind to esports organization 100 Thieves as they’ve added several big names to the roster.

While the loss of Nick ‘NICKMERCS‘ Kolcheff stung, 100T was able to offset that with the additions of Jack ‘CouRageJD‘ Dunlop, content creation team The Mob, and now Arkhram.

The 15-year-old pro is one of the top players in Fortnite and will represent a major signing for them going forward if they want to continue to make a name for themselves in the Fortnite community.

Valkyrae and CouRage are mainly signed on as content creators while Ceice, Elevate and now Arkhram will be relied on for their pro skills. Ceice and Elevate have both qualified for the World Cup, with Ceice qualifying for both Duos and Solos.

100 Thieves announced the signing in a tweet.

“Welcome Arkhram1x to 100 Thieves,” the tweet says. “Arkhram is one of the few players in NA West to double qualify for the Fortnite World Cup. We’re excited to see him represent us at the finals in NY!”

Before signing with 100 Thieves, Arkhram was making a name for himself in the community due to his strong play in tournaments and by playing with Dr Disrespect during Fortnite Friday. 

He still has a way to go before he becomes a household name but if he continues on this path he’ll get there.

The Fortnite World Cup Finals run July 27-28 for Duos and Solos respectively.
