Who We Are

About KIN

Community first. Competition always. Development never stops.

Our Story

How KIN Started

I started off KIN as just a simple team with 5 players that never played with each other. The most important part of KIN wasn't the tournaments, rankings, or wins—it was the people. Players weren't just joining teams; they were building friendships, supporting each other through challenges, and creating a bunch of memories. As more months happen to go by, Cart3r and i started to say how our ORG was going and started focusing more on building around culture, and character. We continue to build a place where you belong and a family where you can all talk.

— KIN CEO

Purpose
