4Kings Take It To NoA

Posted by Hotshot at 14:05 6/2/2005.

In the early hours of this morning the UK's very own 4Kings took on the multicultural team of NoA in the ongoing competition from Korea. Although in its relative infancy, early thoughts from the competition are that the event is running well with most of the games proceeding smoothly as planned.

Earlier in the week it looked like 4Kings were on the ropes, losing by a considerable margin to the 2nd best team in China, ABIT.Strike 13-8. Despite this early setback the team appear to have made a recovery in some style, taking on current CPL Winter champions NoA and defeating them 13-11 on de_inferno. The same map that NoA defeated EYE twice to take the CPL Winter championships.

This effectively confirms 4K's qualification from the initial group stages, and the competition will move on to the quarter finals after a rest period and the culmination of the other group stages. Best of luck to 4Kings in the remainder of the WEG tournament.

Korea Keir says:
feels nice to beat the CPL champions on a map they beat the seasons prior champions! actually it felt awesome! INSANE :D

14:56 6/2/2005		 If you take a Photograph the picture is legally yours and you can do as you please with it. Same as making a picture on a paint program they picture I guess would legally be yours. So why can't a demo be. Just cause its made using a program made by Valve doesn't mean it belongs to Valve. Thats like Cannon having legally rights for any picture took with a Cannon camera.
