Denial Esports acquires fan-favorite CS:GO squad amid funding woes

One of CS:GO’s most inspiring up-and-coming teams, Bravado Gaming’s Project Destiny, just landed what seems to be a permanent spot, relieving them of their viral funding woes.

Project Destiny was the tag that Bravado gave its CS:GO team made up of incredibly talented South African talent, to train and compete in the United States, but after difficulties for its funding forced them to crowdfund for answers, things were looking grim.

Now, a resurgent Denial Esports has come forward to save Project Destiny as the org finalized proceedings to welcome the South Africans to the Wolfpack.

The roster move will see Aran ‘Sonic’ Groesbeek, Ruan ‘ELUSIVE’ van Wyk, Johnny ‘JT’ Theodosiou, and Rhys ‘Fadey’ Armstrong with coach Tiaan ‘T.C.’ Coertzen representing Denial Esports.

The captain of the squad, Dimitri ‘Detrony’ Hadjipaschali has decided to stay with Bravado to continue in the South African org’s undisclosed future goals.
