Rise Nation have announced their Call of Duty team for the upcoming season, with three new players making their appearance in the squad, joining captain Daniel "Loony" Loza.

The three new players are Tyler "FeLonY" Johnson, Ulysses "Aqua" Silva and Brice "Faccento" Faccento, all of whom are former members of Elevate and looking to compete at Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare with Rise Nation.

"FeLonY, Faccento and Aqua have all been widely considered three of the top Call of Duty players over the past two years," Kahreem Horsley, Rise Nation co-owner, told ESPN. "When we parted ways with our previous Call of Duty roster this past week, my first thought was to go after these guys. Although they have seen success in the past, I knew that playing alongside a Call of Duty champion and longtime Rise Nation member in Loony would help to bring this three to the next level."

"I don't think it's a coincidence that both Faccento and Aqua finished 2nd at the 2015 Call of Duty Championships and then 3rd this past year," he continued. "Although the title may change every year and introduce some new mechanics, Call of Duty is Call of Duty. I expect all three of these guys to have great years."

Elevate lost their fourth member to a team captained by Anthony "NAMELESS" Wheeler, so while Rise Nation have rebuilt, Elevate still have some work to do for the future of their team. Rise Nation's own departed players, Nicholas "Classic" Di Constazowho, Josiah "Slacked" Berry and Sam "Octane" Larew, however, have joined Luminosity Gaming.

MLG Vegas begins December 16. Who do you think will do well there?
