4Kings Update

Posted by NoToRiOuS at 12:50 15/10/2003.

Well boys and girls, it's the end of the WCG yellow brick road for our boys. Late last night around 5am saw 4Kings take on a strong aAa side. With absolutely no HLTV coverage for Europe it was looking bleak for us spectators. However I managed to find a Korean server and a handful of us watched with the lovely flush_entity friend.

4Kings got off to a very shaky start on inferno and never really recovered from it.

4Kings 9 - 13 aAa

Also I have been informed that 4Kings got the win on nuke due to aAa using flashbang bug, however it was not enough as aAa took dust 2:

4Kings 8 - 13 aAa

Unlucky guys, they gave it their best but one does wonder what would of happened if the original 5 were going.

Not sure what happened with the exploit in the 4K match...but in the 3D v mibr match I've heard it was unintentional and didn't affect anybody anyway.

Anyone know if this is true? [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

just to clear some things up. a. I couldnt go simply because UCL didn't allow me to. They said it was too early in the course to be taking time off, on top of which they said a lot depended on when tutorials started, and they started during Korea WCG week.

secondly, we played 1 pcw prior to the WCG korea event, meaning even if the 5th was an ultra super duper merc or Heaton or someone, it wouldnt of made much of a difference as preparation was below minimal. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

gg and ul 4K. I guess that WCG is always going to be a slightly weaker event for them than CPL etc is, just because of dark and Xenon not being British etc and them not having an all-UK side. Price I guess you pay for having foreign talent in the side but CPL is a different kettle of fish.

Guess we'll never know how the 'proper' 4K team would have done, had they all been able to attend. Well done on what you guys achieved though, I'd like to see the SK game for definite. Out of interest (and seeing as there's been no comment on it) did Scott play up to par? I'd assume he did just because no one said anything about it.

Roll on CPL Winter. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

4k are playing w/ understrengthed merc side so a 13-11 loss vs SK was pretty damn good, and for a player like poog to hold up vs SK like that is pretty special, cos hes prob never been in that situation b4.

screw seminars? yeh ok, besides asking once for leave (ie. if im away over 5 days i gotta report it) they specifically said that should I decide to go against their wishes I will no longer be welcome back on the course. Sorry but that outweighs any other commitment I might have. I'm not putting my uni position in jeopardy over cs, if I'd of been at Thames Valley or North London it would be a different matter, I wouldnt give a s***, but when u actually goto a decent uni, u dont wanna f*** up [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

poog was top vs SK and second to top

none of the 5 were clearly the 'worst' player of the team, so u cant blame anyone. idiot.

was a merc team anyway, they went for korea, not CS [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

If you listen to the potti interview on gotfrag it sounds like the server was f***ed up due to sv_lan 1 so I think SK would have probably scored more on a standard server. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
