4K: Last ride

When you've missed your third head shot in a row, you don't need the extra pressure of knowing your job is on the line. eSports is big business. Clans are judged on results. Salaries and sponsorship deals are at stake. So your sharp-shooter better not miss.

It's 2006 and the 4Kings' CS 1.6 team is struggling for form. Fast-forward to today, now you can watch the story of their emotional season as the team battles to stay on the 4Kings roster. Watch out for episodes three and four in July. Can the team earn the glory that made the clan gaming royalty?

ToD reflects on World Cyber Games 2006

Warcraft III silver medallist Yoan "ToD" Merlo is in reflective mood following the recent World Cyber Games 2006.

"Against XyLigan I REALLY wanted to finally win a WCG semi final, and I did everything I could to accomplish this," he told four-kings.com.
But the final against Sky didn't go ToD's way. "Those games were probably the worst of my entire career with so much at stake," he believes. "I still don’t know why… perhaps because of Sky, he is a very special player who makes other players commit mistakes with his playing style".



FoV off to wNv

Dae Hui "FoV" Cho has parted ways with 4Kings to join up with wNv Gaming. Having joined 4Kings after ESWC 2004, FoV contributed to helping the clan's mighty Warcraft III team to many titles and competition victories.
