Denial eSports' Nick "nitr0" Cannella has joined iBuyPower.
The news comes following a series of roster changes by iBuyPower that left Joshua "steel" Nissan and Sam "DaZeD" Marine out of the team. The iBuyPower organization previously stated that Derek "desi" Branchen will be acting as a stand-in for the team at the upcoming CS:GO major, DreamHack Winter 2014, but said that "the team’s fifth for Dreamhack will be announced in the coming days."
It now appears that North American player Nick "nitr0" Cannella will be joining Derek "desi" Branchen at DreamHack Winter 2014 according to a Tweet by Damien "daps" Steele.

While it is still unclear whether or not if he will be joining the team on a permanent basis, he has already left the Denial eSports roster on ESEA, suggesting that he will be playing for iBuyPower instead of Denial eSports. Gosugamers has learned that Derek "desi" Branchen will still be staying with Team eLevate after the Dreamhack Winter.
iBuyPower will attend DreamHack Winter 2014 with the following roster:
Nick "nitr0" Cannella
