The ceremony for The Decade Awards saw 9.8 million fans cast their votes to celebrate esports and gaming&#8217;s legendary figures. This event was held alongside the Esports World Cup in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia as part of their &#8220;Summer of Celebration&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Originally, Nadeshot&#8217;s career in esports began when he played Call of Duty professionally for OpTic Gaming back in June 2010. Nadeshot competed professionally until 2015, where he stepped away after OpTic&#8217;s 7th place finish at the Call of Duty Championship. After stepping away from competing in Call of Duty, Nadeshot transitioned to content creation and founded 100 Thieves in 2016. As a content creator, Nadeshot was able to grow his <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/nadeshot\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:YouTube channel;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">YouTube channel<\/a>, where he produces gaming content, vlogs, and behind-the-scenes looks at esports life, to have over 3 million subscribers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Since founding 100 Thieves, Nadeshot has grown the team into one of the biggest brands around in esports and gaming. Nadeshot&#8217;s approach to building 100 Thieves focused not only on growing its presence in esports, but also building the organization as a brand that also focuses on lifestyle and apparel. The organization has since been able to partner with various major companies to expand its reach beyond the esports industry.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><i>This story was originally reported by <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/gamedaily.com\/news\/nadeshot-awarded-as-esports-personality-of-the-decade\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:GameDaily;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">GameDaily<\/a> on Aug 31, 2025, where it first appeared in the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/gamedaily.com\/news\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:News;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">News<\/a> section.
