Hello everyone!! So my girlfriend and I are a bot-lane pair that have dreams to one day be on the big stage. We have been for the past few months tried out for various teams on the forums etc.. Just to find out the hard way that we can't really find anyone nearly as dedicated or committed to going pro as we are. We are both high gold and climbing really fast we know we can go far we win roughly 90% of our lanes with ease. The question is where can I look for a team that would be interested in picking us up because on the Team Recruitment forum I find way to many casual teams that don't even want to commit to go pro...

Any suggestions or ideas at all would be greatly appreciated as I said this is our dream we have fully committed our lives to this and want it to happen so bad!!

If you're looking to go pro then you pretty much need to be high Challenger. Get there first and then, if you're good, the opportunities present themselves.

Start a stream and get a following. You don't really need Challenger but if you're Gold, I'd recommend getting Diamond first.

Try to form a ranked 5's team with friends you meet in duo q. Playing with people that you at least sort of know instead of complete strangers will help you rank up a lot which could lead to you getting opportunities with real challenger teams

seperate your relationship from your DuoQ. If you are serious (even if you stay as a pair in lane) you have to realize this so you don't fall into the DuoQ trap where you constantly make excuses for eachothers' mistakes.
