4Kings have announced the acquirement of a new Counter-Strike division, notably being from the organization's home soil.

4Kings have announced the acquirement of a new Counter-Strike divison, notably being from the organization's home soil.
The British-based organization once again plunged into the Counter-Strike field just last month following that 4Kings' Team Manager Jason Potter told HLTV.org that the interest was definitely there. 
 Prior to their statement, the number one rumor at the time was the former cbteam squad linking up with the organization. The rumor was however later shot dead. 
4Kings have now picked up three out of five vitalsigns players who recently attended, and won, the Wiredout 3 event in Reading, England. The lineup used for the event was the same as the one listed below, except Talha "taLz" Ahmad.
Among the five we see Dylan "IRISH" Patton, once spotted as runners-up with PONG at WCG 2007 Ireland. He will be joined by Talha "taLz" Ahmad and Erin "JungleboY" Teucher whom both have had a spell together in ButtonBashers, while the latter also making the United Kingdom's ENC squad.
Accompanying them will be Craig "onscreen" Shannon, a true United Kingdom old schooler, and Matt "MaTzz" Jackson, a player who have made a few notable apperances at local LANs and ESWC UK in 2008 and 2010.
"With the addition of jungleboy for Wiredout3 LAN we managed to win without losing a single game, spk has decided to quit competitive CS and so we have decided to bring in talz to complete our line-up. With 4Kings we are able to use our full potential not just within the UK but on an international level and we are really looking forward to it", Craig "onscreen" Shannon told Four-Kings.com
4Kings now boast the following:

Dylan "IRISH" Patton
Matt "MaTzz" Jackson
Craig "onscreen" Shannon
Talha "taLz" Ahmad
Erin "JungleboY" Teucher
The team managed a second-place finish in the ESL Pro Series UK league, and are now through to the second qualifying round of IEM5.

"The acquisition of vitalsigns marks the return of 4Kings to the UK community. We as an organisation have an obligation which runs deep into the root of 4Kings. Our formost goal is promote and prove what the UK can compete, and shock the world with some of the UK's most unknown talents", Jason Potter added.

the question is for how long
2010-09-06 04:35:59
then what would happen to vitalsigns?
2010-09-06 04:36:22
Out of all the possible teams that's who you pick up? I'd congratulate you on this magnificent act of failure but you're not worthy of that.
2010-09-06 04:39:02

2010-09-06 04:46:43
I think they dont have that much to offer, so that`s what they could bring :)
2010-09-06 17:16:13
You think 4k are a big orga or something, maybe in the past not anymorre, so...
2010-09-06 20:25:10
Why didnt u pick up ICSU instead ? :S

btw fRoD vs 4kings on cbble one of the best POV's i've ever seen!

xD

nice to see 4k back with cs
2010-09-06 04:47:20
+1.. so true.. never seen a awp like that, and deagle :D
2010-09-06 04:53:04
he was just fragging there, i love people who are awp'ing with finesse, like spawn or walle did. spawn didn't play with it much but his action vs lunatic-hai is still my favourite ever, lol
2010-09-06 22:41:11
+1 agree
2010-09-06 05:06:03
i wanna download this POV :c

2010-09-06 05:30:22
i give this lineup max 2months,,
2010-09-06 05:35:27
Lame, was really hoping they'd sponsor a good team thats lacking a sponsor.
2010-09-06 05:37:23
Who?
2010-09-06 05:41:55
GL
2010-09-06 05:42:55

2010-09-06 11:05:09
wtf you on about hes top3 uk if not the best..
2010-09-06 13:05:14
OMG
2010-09-07 02:21:16
Hope they'll actually put some hours in and represent UKcs, not just give it to other UK teams as they 15-0 them online but get dicked on LAN when they come up against Europe's bigboys...
2010-09-06 06:03:00
thats what i call a epic fail
2010-09-06 06:29:25
jungleboy was pretty nice and matzz
2010-09-06 06:38:15

If they want a team to win then they need to look elsewhere atm.

hmm..
2010-09-06 08:33:07
I actually think that this lineup can take over the #1 place in the UK and hopefully from there do some damage at what ever LAN event they attend.

gl guys
2010-09-06 08:50:41
This line-up will be the best in the UK. Internationally? They're gonna fail, but i hope they prove me wrong.
2010-09-06 08:55:15

Before you all bitch and laugh, these guys are actually pretty good, and as for saying 4K should of picked up "X pro euro team", I may be wrong here, but as they've only just started the Org again, I don't think they could offer a TOP team enough at the moment.
2010-09-06 11:31:51
Not as good as the_brain though. They are quite good, but not amazing as the_brain.
2010-09-07 13:50:16
Yes hello
2010-09-07 15:15:45
Wtf? Why everyone says craps like "bad" or "fail"!!?
Damn, this is very nice squad!
2010-09-06 11:59:46
Nightmare...... But gl wee Matty darling x

If talz is as much of a dick as usual i give them a month, if not then gl
2010-09-06 12:05:18
GL guyz :X
2010-09-06 12:08:02
bad move picking talz up. if only Jb could play w/o is bumboy. wont beat dig,

onscreen and Jb their best players
2010-09-06 12:17:45
if only you were OK at lan but your shit.
2010-09-06 17:29:42
All the people saying about how they could have picked up a better team, all I can say is at least they're supporting a home team.
2010-09-06 12:41:51
4kings wouldnt be able to support a better team than this, thats why they picked them..
2010-09-06 12:45:06
HAHA fail..
2010-09-06 12:53:28
nice gl
2010-09-06 13:03:17
how long before EG vs 4K on cbble?
2010-09-06 13:10:36
2 of these players not strong enough for the bigtimeCS
2010-09-06 13:20:07
no money, no good team
2010-09-06 13:39:39
onscreen and JungleboY are their best two players easily

welp it looks like 4K fucked themselves by not signing cbteam, cbteam would've been fucking great and would of done 20x better than this lineup
2010-09-06 13:55:58
gl :)
2010-09-06 13:57:21
I'm gonna give them a few months.
2010-09-06 13:58:50
so glad to see UK players in the squad, best of luck folks !
onscreen & jungleboy will hold 4K flag high :)
2010-09-06 14:08:16
When I saw the title, I was so like "This got to be good!", then I see the lineup and I just feel like "Don't worth reading" :/
2010-09-06 14:12:57
omfg, this lineup should be jungleboy, talz, 101, spike, aleski
2010-09-06 14:15:43
omfg you should go watch transformers

2010-09-06 15:14:54
For those of you who miss the point on this... I'd personally rather see a burgeoning homegrown uk cs community again, than waste money of some of the teams mentioned above.
2010-09-06 15:19:12
won't you waste a lot more money sending this dog team to lans? or is this your way of informing them that they'll be getting no lans paid from you?
2010-09-06 15:28:58
Pretty sure that spending money on a UK team which has been given the chance TIME AND TIME again is a bigger waste of money. At least get some exposure with you pick up...

There is some truth in what Ben said you know about 4Kings.
2010-09-06 15:31:25
picking up a team wont start up the uk community lets be honest

stop being so quick to abuse them, they've beaten the best uk teams and players in the last few months.. just hope 4k can actually send them to at least 2 good lans, then they at least have an opportunity to do something and be able to learn from the first one
2010-09-06 16:12:50
and who have the best uk players beaten?
2010-09-06 21:32:39
like team p0k3m0n, ~!RPG-Cl4N!~, TR4N5F0RM3R5, BAZ00KA team and Emo-Gayming.

2010-09-07 04:28:24
i would love to see 4kings beat online-kingdom.
2010-09-07 12:52:25
They didn't pick up a team though did they? if two members left :P Just makes it a newly formed glorified mixen :P

I'm actually glad that 4Kings picked up a UK team, so many complaints about how there is never any home-grown teams and then when they do pick up people complain about not being good enough internationally..

Give these guys a chance and hopefully they will prove people wrong, gl dylan!
2010-09-06 18:32:54
4kings are too much of a newby organisation to pick up any other team, but i hope this team does well ! hopefully 4kings will back them to big events ! and hopefully they keep on there back to play lots !!!! but yeh quick shud be in this lineup y0
