LCS Champion Coach Cain Set to Join 100 Thieves for 2023 Summer Split

100 Thieves, the North American esports organization, is reportedly bringing back an LCS championship-winning head coach for the 2023 Summer Split.

Jang “Cain” Nu-ri, currently the coach of South Korean team Kwangdong Freecs, has been linked to the position.

Cain was previously with Team Liquid between 2017 and 2020 before joining Afreeca Freecs in 2021. Although Cain failed to deliver significant results with his teams in South Korea, his work with Team Liquid, particularly in the 2019 Mid-Season Invitational, has made him a respected figure in the LCS.

Cain will be joining 100 Thieves, which is currently seeking a starting mid-laner following the departure of Bjergsen. The organization is said to be considering South Korean players as possible replacements, but no decisions have been finalized yet.
