The new KiNGs of the FIFA esports world have been crowned.<\/p>\n

KiNG eSports won the third FIFA eClub World Cup<\/a> in London on Sunday, justifying their favouritism<\/a> with the bookies in an impressive display.<\/p>\n

Nicolas “nicolas99FC” Villalba and Donovan “Tekkz” Hunt were able to beat Dijon FCO in the final and collect $40,000 prize money.<\/p>\n

Both KiNGS players also collected 1500 Global Series points, which will help their pursuit of the FIFA eWorld Cup Grand Final later in 2019.<\/p>\n

It wasn’t all smooth sailing for the duo, who both lost one-on-one battles that forced deciding games during the quarterfinals and semis.<\/p>\n

Talking to FIFA.com, Tekkz was overjoyed to break a little hoodoo that had been developing at big tournaments.<\/p>\n

“I haven’t won for a while; I always lose in the semifinals, so I will be posting the leaderboards out tonight,” Tekkz told FIFA.com.<\/p>\n

“Everyone thought I’d be gone after the patch (latest update), but I’m still here.”<\/p>\n

Dijon’s Aurelien “Moolzn” Charon was proud of his team’s effort against the overwhelming favourites in the final.<\/p>\n

“We were underdogs, and we tried out best in the final, and it was not easy, but we are proud of our tournament,” he said.<\/p>\n\n\n
