Frostfall Gaming: Walking the Rift

League of Legends is a team based game; it’s designed for 3v3/5v5 play styles, not a 1v1 solo act. As such Frostfall Gaming was created under the same principle: teamwork. This team was made to showcase the performance that could be achieved when a group of players come together and bring out the best in each other through communication, support, and working as one towards a collective goal. To be a part of this team you must recognize yourself not as an individual player, but as a single piece of a team bigger than yourself.

#A full copy of the Team Schedule is available here.

Our team’s goal is to reach the greatness we have the potential to reach by playing this game as a group under one name. We will use communication through available medians to collaborate in-game and play the map in reflection of each others’ performance and play style. But keep in mind that we are not perfect, nor should we be expected to be. Mistakes will be made in games many times, and demeaning the performance of a player for those mistakes will NOT correct them, only further the decline in their performance. Each player will know their mistake and individually attempt to correct their play for that game, as a team, we will review our mistakes after games and find ways to correct them to prevent future recurrences. Team strategies shall be created and discussed prior to games/practices/scrims and will be consistently practiced to determine what works best and what needs to be changed.

We strive for an environment where each player on our team feels safe and happy to play and grow within the midst of other players. Not every game will go well, and many times our team will fall behind to better teams or teams that may just be more on their game that day, but that does not mean we will bend over and let a loss happen easily. Surrendering will not be a process our team shall become accustomed to, if we lose a match, it won’t be due to our lack of conviction; it will be due to the other team’s better play and determination. So that we may hold our heads high in defeat, and find greater satisfaction in victory. When our team hits the rift we will think as one, and each other’s accomplishments will belong to the entire team. So assisting a teammate to better their strength for one game is encouraged, selfish plays that deter the rest of the team from finding victory are not. I strongly encourage our members to play often with each other. Learn each other’s style and tendencies, through which will make playing together more natural and allows for the opportunity to find ways to help each other play better in their role.

To ensure this environment the most important thing for each individual to hone and develop is their positive attitude towards each other, our opponents, and the game itself. League of Legends creates opportunity to feel competitive but with competition comes the opportunity for disappointment and anger. It is important not to let these emotions take over your judgement and calmness in game Demeaning or bullying members for any reason whether it be mistakes in game or issues outside of game will not be tolerated and will be dealt with swiftly. Each member of the team is expected to show a personal dedication to the team and the progress of the team. Schedules will be designed around the availability of every member for maximum attendance. If prior commitments interfere with a scheduled event, notice is to be given at least 48 hrs in advance to allow the team to make up for the absence.

######If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to ask or discuss them with me.

It is the goal of the team to achieve greatness while enjoying the time we spend playing this game. On behalf of the team and myself, I wish you all fortune in all your games and may you find growth within the soft chill of Frostfall.
