in 2021, a stint that netted him a Challengers 2 title and an appearance at the 2021 NA Challengers 3 Playoffs.
However, bang's big break into the upper echelon of North America's scene materialized in the form of 100 Thieves, the very same team that he would qualify for an international LAN event with in 2022.
Despite not finding much success at Champions Istanbul, bang would remain with the Thieves as they restructured to prepare for the partnership leagues. Over the course of the next two years, bang and his teammates struggled within the VCT, failing to qualify for Masters Tokyo or Los Angeles' Champions in 2023.
However, the team's hard work paid off in 2024 after signing Kelden "Boostio" Pupello and Daniel "eeiu" Vucenovic led them to qualify for their first Masters event since 2021: Masters Shanghai.
