LF Diamond Support for Ranked 5s Team

Codeluke·10/14/2015, 1:16:54 AM·1 votes·1,049 views

Hi all,

Before I get into what the title is about, I want to provide a little background first. I am Codeluke, a former League of Legends tournament organizer for an organization known as New Generations Gaming, (you can check out our website here www.newgenerationsgaming.com)

We are a gaming community that originally focused on offering quality season-style tournaments that helped players get a feel for what it would be like to compete in an eSports scene. Recently the objective of the community expanded to incorporate other games such as Hearthstone, CSGO and Rocket League in an effort to provide more variety.

Recently, I decided to accept a position as manager of the team known as Overhyped, the team that won during NGG's Summer season earlier this year. The team is a group of Diamond players that are not only committed to being the best they can be at the game, but to grow together as a team and accomplish even greater things. They have been playing for a while and are all good friends, but over the Fall the roster had ups and downs and the primary point of concern is at Support. Therefore, I feel it's in the best interests of the team to search for a support that can help the team reach the next level.

This team intends to be serious but at the same time enjoy QUALITY League of Legends play and have fun. With that said, we are expecting a support with plenty of experience on multiple champions, great knowledge of the game and a desire to improve and compete at a high level on a consistent basis.

Current Roster & Current Divisions Top - Impaled (Diamond IV currently - Highest D3) Jungle - C R (Diamond V) Mid - MarkBoots (Diamond IV currently - Highest D1) ADC - JiggedyJam (Diamond 1 - Has previously reached Master) Support - (Open)

Practice times tend to be around 9 PM EST daily with exceptions for weekends in some cases. Of course soloQ is not counted as "team practice time". As I just recently was brought aboard as Manager there are still some things I need to iron out and provide more details on before I can definitively say what practice times are so bear with me :)

Reply to this post with the application below to be considered for a tryout. As a team and group of friends we want to be sure we find the right man (or woman) for the job and we need to know as much as possible to make that decision effectively.
