XI Wiki
Proof: The Crown Prince of Dubai now owns the #1 Worldwide WoW Guild.
A little bit of everything
TLDR Version:
Lower level member of the worldwide "best" WoW guild tells about the merger between Nihilum and SK to form Ensidia, funded by the Crown Prince of Dubai, son of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. He left after realizing that the leader was just stringing him along as a backup tank with no privileges at all, to help bolster first-string players. Also Kungen (the guildleader) isn't a terrible tank, but definitely not world class as evidenced by a few parses of him standing in void blasts like a moron.

Considering it was posted on the 12th I fail to see how it is old, unless I'm missing something?

Everyone knows UAE buys characters. Who cares if there's a news story about someone specific.

Guess I wasn't clear? The #1 and #2 worldwide WoW guilds merged, the crown prince of dubai sponsors them with systems and pays rent for a few kids.
Before today we knew they were sponsored by someone in the UAE, just didn't know that it was the crown prince of dubai.

I think everybody knew that, but the Crown Prince of a country paying them? That's awesome, he probably pays them in magical jewels and custom islands. Originally Posted by Ohaigaiz
