Knives of Ascendance (KA) is an anti-degenerate server part of the C grade with roots in mapping (M grade). It holds diplomatic relations with several other clans. It also serves as a gateway between clan com community and other communities, with partnerships. KA was founded in the summer of 2021 as a fusion between AAUAN [Alliance against United Allied Nations(UAN)] and AIR. Proto-KA clans exist since early 2020 (AIR, KA and UAN). KA had the names SAG, MBL and IAD for a significant portion of its history. Its owners are called Victor and Fear, currently reigning owners being Victor I and Fear II (Fear I retired in November 2022, ending the first era of KA. KA was then restored briefly in 2023). During its heyday, there were multiple conflicts with The 4th Brigade because of 4th's anti-mapping nature and KA's mapping roots. However, there were some altercations between KA and its leader, Victor, and mapping leaders. Fear I was an O grader, with minimal involvement in mapping. On July 27th 2022, KA was victorious over 4th, causing a banwave over 4th and its allies (AOS and the Horsemen alliance). Their servers and accounts were getting banned off Discord, causing their members to pressure Daniel, the leader of 4th, to leave mapping alone. The mapping world celebrated. 2 years later, Victor tricked 4th's new owner (Phrog) into giving ownership of 4th, therefore making Phrog's leadership of 4th obsolete, and giving Victor his revenge for the attacks that took place on his community. UAN was vassalized by KA for half of its history, and 4th was vassalized by KA for a little bit of its history. A was founded in the summer of 2021 as a fusion between AAUAN [Alliance against United Allied Nations(UAN)] and AIR. Proto-KA clans exist since early 2020 (AIR, KA and UAN). KA had the names SAG, MBL and IAD for a significant portion of its history. Its owners are called Victor and Fear, currently reigning owners being Victor I and Fear II (Fear I retired in November 2022, ending the first era of KA. KA was then restored briefly in 2023, but was short lasting. It ultimately got restored in May 2024, reaching its peak later that year). During its heyday, there were multiple conflicts with The 4th Brigade because of 4th's anti-mapping nature and KA's mapping roots. However, there were some altercations between KA and its leader (Victor) and mapping leaders. Fear I was an O grader, with minimal involvement in mapping. Victor I and Fear II are the current leaders of KA, 2024
