4kings Receive New Sponsorship

Posted by Velta at 16:28 16/12/2003.

The announcement that we've heard rumblings about for so long, from the #4kings IRC channel, has finally been announced. It is, as many predicted, a new sponsorship agreement. This time we see 4kings being backed by the very best in high-performance gaming computers, Alienware.

Dallas, USA, 17 December 2003 - The UK's Premiere online Gaming team Four Kings and the leader of PC gaming hardware announce a sponsorship agreement. Alienware will be providing Four Kings with the Ultimate in Gaming notebooks, which will be ideal for the team when competing in international tournaments. Alongside the notebooks, Alienware will be providing the team with financial support, Alienware branded mice, mousepads and in association with Intel, the Ultimate Gaming Machines!

"This deal with Alienware will surely help the squad prepare and maximise performance at forthcoming tournaments, enabling us to warm-up and take part in the BYOC events at all major events. Also, with Alienwares superb gaming computers it will really aid the team and help us to gain those much needed frames per second", said Toby Aldridge, Managing Director of the Four Kings Gaming Team.

The full article can be found here.

According to a 4kings representative, Alienware will be providing 4kings with laptops to take to their events, financial backing and mice/mousemats. The future can only be brighter for Four-Kings as a result. Good luck 4k.

thats the point...

the fact they play the vast majority of their competitive football in England is why they represent England when they play in Europe.

4kings dont play in any uk leagues, hence the only thing that ties them to the UK is the management, and that does not make them a UK team for me. just my opinion ;x [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

or maybe they dont play their games in any UK leagues because there is no profit in it for them. Whats the the CS premier league??!

csgn, barrys, ED?? I can hardly see it being worth their time to play in those leagues. However its very profitable for Arsenal, ManU to participate in the Prem.

Why was it discussed that Rangers/Celtic leave the SFA and play in the prem, would that then render them a non Scottish football team?

4k have chose to play in the CS champions league because we have no Prem, just UK CS conference! [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

4K have beaten SK last two times at wc3 yeah. WC3 is still a bit imbalanced and as almost all SK's top players play human (argued to be the _best_ race which results agree) the patch should knock them back a bit. It came out today however and the weaker races got weaker while the strongest got stronger, just a tidbit for you Naz! [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
