Silenx to be released from 100 Thieves Valorant roster

The up-and-comer himself took to Twitter to announce that he will no longer be a part of 100Thieves' Valorant roster. 

100T silenx on TwitterAfter this last trip to LA, my contract with @100Thieves is up. I feel like I learned a lot from the guys and am so grateful for the opportunity. Everyone there was an absolute pleasure to be around and work with. With that being said, I'm now LFT. RTs appreciated. 😄 👍— 100T silenx (@Silenx_x) March 25, 2021100T silenxTwitter

Silenx joined 100T as a substitute for Nitr0 back in January for Champions Tour North America Challengers 1. This was to give Nitr0 some time to spend with his wife and their newborn child. 

100T failed to make it out of the qualifier in Challengers 1. However, Silenx performed admirably with a team that he had very little time to practice with. He was also playing Omen in their three matches, which was quite different from his role on beastcoast; where he played mostly Sova.

Nitr0 returned to the 100T starting roster before Champions Tour North America Challengers 2 began. Which meant that Silenx would not have the opportunity to display his skills on the team for a second tournament. 

The Valorant esports scene is still in its infancy, and many teams are continuing to make roster changes in the hopes of finding the right fit, so it’s safe to assume that Silenx will find a new team in no time.
