Nicholas “nitr0” Cannella is a 24-year-old American former CS:GO player who had played for Team Liquid since January 2015. In his career, he earned over $900.000 from the events. About two weeks ago, Team Liquid parted ways with nitr0.

For a while, there had been a rumor about nitr0 to join the Valorant scene, and nitr0 did speak in the interview with ESPN and stated that there are lots of opportunities in the Valorant scene for him.

Yesterday, 100 Thieves announced that they agreed with nitr0, and parted ways with the whole team besides another legendary CS:GO player Spencer “Hiko” Martin.

Furthermore, nitr0 explained his feelings by saying that he is so excited to join 100 Thieves’ Valorant roster and so happy for the opportunity they gave to him. Also, he said that he is aiming to be the best team in the world.

Here is the official announcement from 100 Thieves:

“America’s captain has a new look. Welcome nitr0 to 100 Thieves Valorant.”

nitr0 said:

“Ayy, Lets go boys! Excited is an understatement! I am so happy for this opportunity. Let’s make the best of it now!”

“Welcome Nick 🙂 Super excited about this!”
