Dark Joins Four-Kings

Posted by Antmoo at 01:32 1/7/2003.

That's correct! Dark, previously from the now extinct eoLithic, has joined up with top UK team Four-Kings. Unfortunately, Mr. Kwak has had to step down from his position in the team but who knows, he may be back! Here is the statement from their site:

It is a great pleasure for us to announce a new member in 4K. Ruben "Dark" Bielenberg. A player whose roots go all the way back to the old Quake/Quake2 days, Dark has played in numerous top teams such as Eolithic and Schroet Kommando and has won 2 major CPL events.

It is with a heavy heart that for the time being at least, we say goodbye to P.B "Darth" Kwak who has been asked to take a step back to allow Dark a chance in the squad and to leave us with a UK based five. He is a great friend to everyone in the squad and plans for the forseeable future to stay in 4K.

Our current lineup will consist of Wright, Xenon, Harriman, Mangiacapra, Shaq, and Dark, and we will attend all of the upcoming major events throughout 2003.

Looks like this will bolster 4K's already strong team, ready to take on the top teams from around the world at the various events they will be attending this summer.

Good luck to Four-Kings, Dark and Kwak!

I just feel bringing in Dark another european player shows how much the Uk cs scene lacks in potential. With 4k the Uk's best Cs clan recruiting members from across europe and not looking out for true potential in the Uk but yet again i might be wrong [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

And gl 4K - wish you all the best!

Say is anyone looking for a teaboy at UKT4? well just visit our irc channel we are the rejects of the cs community, who make tea for the 'more important people'.

Why not order one of us for a mere 20 pounds an hour - this will include a free kettle!

This offer is only lasting uptil the UKT4 event, so why not order us now!

Personally I don't think this was a good choice. I doubt DarK is much better than Kwak, his reputation comes from winning the cpl with SK and eoLithic, and that's not solely becaose of him, it's because of his team. I'm sure DarK is a good player but I'm not sure he'll enjoy high pinging PCWs, unless 4K play PCW's with say middle european teams? Still, I think they would have been better of with Kwak but maybe Kwak can make the dutch clan scene a little better if he joins one. :) [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

b4 they had 5 UK players + kwak, now its the same, but + Dark

the way its been said it seems like they rate DarK above kwak, but kwak above some1 else but 2 euros = bad? [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

PB forever.

DarK carried eoL at the last eurocup finals against mTw, hes fantastic player and doug was right an oppurtunity not to be missed.

PB is by far the best player in NL, just a shame he hasnt got any good teams in his home country to go to.

I can't see why people don't understand 4K's motives here. Dark is amazing. He's more experienced than possibly anyone at playing at an international level. Xenon was recruited, imo, for his experience rather than his skills, which ofcourse are amazing too. So it makes sense for 4K to recruit Dark. They have aspirations of winning CPL. Dark will help them acheive that goal. Dark has played at the very top level of gaming for years now. With MM he was in an untouchable NiP-like team, in eoL he was in, imo, the best cs team. If you have the opportunity to get a player like that then you should. Now if only shub would start playing cs. :)

kwak is a great player indeed. But 4k who hope to compete at top level as much as pos ( i mean top 5 or better finishes) need to add a little extra spark to the team, yes with kwak and the 5 uk players they /could/ get there, with time. But now they have 2 CPL winners, and 3 events wins in there, + euro experience playing with even more of the tactical genius's in europe.

Dark will bring the skill that kwak has, and maybe more, but he will bring a hell of alot more experience and know how to win. Watch 4K rage at the next lan. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
