vora profile: the 100 Thieves leadership bet paid off in Stage 2

100 Thieves named Jordan “vora” Pulwer its 2026 IGL; the roster went on to win Americas Stage 2.

Anonymous team and captain silhouettes trace a journey from Challengers to the Americas Stage 2 trophy, with the TGN host in an analyst inset.

Backlog report, updated 14 October 2026. 100 Thieves introduced Jordan “vora” Pulwer as its 2026 in-game leader and Initiator, after his rise through North American Challengers. The organisation built a roster around returning veterans and younger talent. On 6 September, Riot’s schedule records 100T beating LOUD 3–2 in the Americas Stage 2 final. That does not mean one player personally won every round. It does mean the team’s leadership experiment got a serious result.

The TGN read

For me, vora is the most interesting part of the 100T story: a former tier-two IGL was given real responsibility next to established names and the team survived the pressure of a five-map regional final. That is a better long-term signal than a one-week fragging spike. I am a SEN and G2 fan, so yes, I would have preferred another badge on the trophy. Apparently the bracket did not consult me. Credit where it is due: 100T’s structure earned the final, and its newer leader is worth tracking at the next international test.
