After a long saga for former Denial Esports members and staff, the end to a frustrating, unnerving ordeal may finally come to pass as new figures have seemingly taken the reigns to usher in a new chapter for the controversial organization.
Denial Esports was once a thriving club that fielded teams in many titles such as Counter-Strike, H1Z1, Rocket League, Super Smash Bros. Melee, and more, but all of the success was left marred by unpaid players and fees, consistent stonewalling by upper-management, and legal action against the org.
Now it looks like a new era may be coming to the once chastised team, as potential new owners look to have tied loose ends on December 18 and are preparing to take Denial Esports into a new age of prosperity.
You all are going to be in DENIAL when you see what we are up to

The debt has been agreed upon for Denial.
The players are happy.
We will issue in a new age of the org and it’s legacy.
Someone tag Stephan Crystal and tell him we need to do our monthly board minutes. He says he’s an attorney. He should know this.

After an apparent fallout from the Anaheim Pirates name, BlackbeardAP and his Halo team have left the SoCal branded org on December 16 and have since teased the entire roster will soon be under a new name.
Denial Esports had previously been world champions in Call of Duty, Rainbow 6, Gears of War, and are looking to once again find a footing in a new age.
