Hartman & sNajdan Join Four-Kings Intel

Posted by Myers at 19:17 20/11/2003.

The Four-Kings Intel website has just been updated. It seems the latest two additions to the Four-Kings Intel lineup are Hartman and sNajdan. Hartman is relatively unknown on the international scene but some may remember from his time with caffice, a highly ranked SEL team who performed well in the Swedish World Cyber Games. sNajdan on the other hand is much more famous and has an impressive record from his experiences with GameOnline.

It is interesting that neither player is from the UK and one has to wonder if future events will still classify 4K.cs as a UK clan. It might also raise the issue of how online gaming teams are classified to be from which country.

With Douglas "Grim" Wright retiring from Counter-Strike our squad was left with a four man team. After searching for and trying numerous players we have found not just one, but two of Europe?s very best cs players that fit perfectly into our current squad.

Therefore it is with great enthusiasm that we are pleased to announce our two newest members; Jonas Hartman (former Caffice), and Mattias "sNajdan" Andersson (former GameOnline). Our current roster consists of; Hartman, sNajdan, Dark, Mangiacapra, Harriman and Xenon, and our upcoming events will be CPL Dallas Winter and the Cyber X Gaming finals in Las Vegas thanks to great support from Intel. Here is what sNajdan had to say about joining 4Kings Intel Counter-Strike:

"My name is Mattias Andersen, I am 17 years old and live in Gothenburg, Sweden. My previous clans consist of xPerience.se and GameOnline amongst others, with whom I recently attended CPL Denmark. After speaking a bit to the 4Kings guys we tried playing together and the chemistry was excellent. After they offered me a spot on their squad I felt that it was a chance I could not refuse. I think the team will go very far and show everyone what we are capable of at big events around the world."

So there you have it. Harriman, Dark, Mangiacapra and myself would like to thank all of our friends that have supported us through the past year and hope that 2004 will be as prosperous for our squad as 2003 was.

UKTerrorist wishes the best of luck to these two players. You can catch [4K^Mangiacapra] and [4K^Harriman] in action at the moment in the UK's CB nations group stage game against Finland. #team-uk.cs on quakenet for more information.

People need to stfu. 4K recruit a UK player, their stealing from other clans who they believe are their competition and ruining their cs scene! 4K recruit a foriegn player and their betraying the UK cs scene. 4K is British, it dosn't matter where the f*** the players are from. Check 4K.wc3 its the same there, who cares? All sites / competitions still recognise 4K as THE British powerhouse.
