ImageThe KD Gaming HoN team left the organization to join Online Kingdom, Dirty Minds swiftly took their spot.

One of the top Heroes of Newerth teams, KD Gaming, has decided to leave their organization behind in order to join up with the Portuguese Online Kingdom.

Guilherme "elwan" Fraga, Managing director of Online Kingdom:
"(...) We have decided to get into the game at a phase when the game is growing as we speak. As you might have noticed the producers of the game have been working a lot promoting it and also developing it. We have seen many huge events (both in prize money, but also in number of competitors), so we decided it was time. We have thus decided that in order to succeed we should grab the best European players, and we quickly understood that those players were playing under the KD name. Today, we are proud to announce the addition of a Heroes of Newerth team to our family. KD Gaming has been around for quite some time now. We wish the team a great start and good luck in all future tournaments with your new clan tag!"


DE Marc 'Mag1x' Müller, Captain of OK.HoN:
"We are pretty excited about being part of the big OK Family now. Everyone I've met so far from Online-Kingdom was very kind and friendly, so we are really lucky that we found a partner like OK. We will, of course, do everything we can to make the OK name shine in the whole HoN-Community which is growing day by day. I'm looking forward to a great long term cooperation and good times under the OK Tag."

Just hours after this announcement, KD Gaming has announced that their new team will be the boys from Dirty Minds , thus instantly replacing their top tier HoN team with another one of similar caliber.

Statement by KD Gaming management:
"Everything comes to an end, so did the era of KD.HoN. After we had to let them go to join Online Kingdom, we faced the problem of finding a replacement team. Heroes of Newerth will continue to play a big role here at KD Gaming and thus we can be very happy that Dirty Minds joined us. With them, we didn't find just a replacement team, we found THE replacement team. Here's to a long and successful relationship!"


DE Antonino 'SkyHigh' Pollina:
"We were looking for a sponsor for a while now without any success until KD Gaming came up with the offer. KD Gaming happened to look for a new HoN team and just like that we got our chance to prove ourselves. Naturally, we hope that we'll represent KD Gaming honorably and successfully."
