Looking to coach a Silver ranked team.

Suh dudes.

Let's get to the thicc. I spent a lot of time trying to climb my ass up the ranks and I think it's about time I set my goals on something else. So I'm going to try my hand at coaching. If you are lower on the bar than you want to be, and are serious about wanting to improve, then keep reading, otherwise, you might as well click that back button now.

Been playing since season one. Games changed a lot but I've done well to keep up. Own a business so I ain't got time to throw down hours on hours of ranked in order to be as good as I'd like to be, but I feel like my game knowledge is on point. Abilities, behaviors, goals, positioning, team fight coordination and communication, and all that stuff is the kinda thing we'd be working on, but lemme break it down like this before I get ahead of myself.

My responsibilities: -Coordinate practice times between players. -Go over game knowledge and review game play to stress weak points and offer suggestions. -Form a functioning team that could do some small competitions but mostly to improve. -Schedule scrims with other teams and/or competitions once we get a solid foundation. -Motivate the team to work together with positive attitude but realistic criticism and expectations according to your own goals.

**Player responsibilities: ** -Show up to practice, on time, and stay for the whole practice. I don't want half cocked practice attitudes. We are doing this to improve. -Cooperate with your teammates; do not be silent. -Accommodate different play styles. -Have a willingness to accept criticism and improve. If you can't do this, don't even bother to message me. -Be hungry. I ain't looking for people content with silver, or even gold.

Side notes:

  • I ain't married to the meta. If you come to me with a baller Amumu or Talon or support Shaco, I won't care as long as you can perform and play more than one champ. Ideally 3 for any given main role. Not required, but something to keep in mind to work on.
  • I am not just taking any one. I am taking people who I feel will synergise well. Expect to get onto a voice chat with people you don't know, and play with people you don't know until I get a roster tacked down.

That's about it. I don't have a team name in mind but might come up with one as I start putting it together. Honestly I'm less concerned with things like Logos, images, names, titles, ranks, or any of that crap until we got the ball in our court and are ready to show people how we play. Don't join expecting grandeur or lime light in competitions or trophies. Join expecting to learn, to improve, to climb, and to master your role. Join to play with a team of people who are like minded, hungry, and ready to fail, lose, and get frustrated. Join expecting that this will not be an easy road, nor a charitable one.

Improve. Perform. Excel.

Current Spots available: -Top -Jungle -Mid -Support -Marksman -FILLED

Not interested in subs at the moment. Sorry. Perhaps in the future. Message me on Discord at Breaker#6666 or PM me on here. You can respond to this post. No matter where you message me, hit me with the following information:

-Current Rank -Desired Rank -Role [off roles welcome] -Main champs and the role you use them in. -Best way to contact you and the information to do so. -Available times to play/perform and chat so I can get a feel for you. -Why you want to join this team.

See you on the Rift.

-Current Rank: S3?-S2 one of the two Im bouncing back and forth

-Desired Rank: Short term, Gold within a month. Mid term: Plat+ by end of season 8 Long term: Challenger

-Role [off roles welcome]: ADC/Jungle, I have dabbled in top lane a bit this season so far as a Fiora OTP for fun, but am looking to return to either of my main roles

-Main champs and the role you use them in: Jungle: Khazix is above and beyond my best jungler, I tend to play other assassin/bruiser styled junglers best but can bring out tanks when needed. ADC: Trist, Jinx, Ez are probably top 3 in terms of comfort, again I can play others easily if I put the time into them

-Best way to contact you and the information to do so: League (IGN TheFallenKnight) also Discord (Fallen Knight #9665)

-Available times to play/perform and chat so I can get a feel for you: I am between jobs at the moment so pretty much any time in the day is free time for me, I am job hunting so going forward evenings later than 5pm PST are best just so if I do get another job I wont have to drastically change the schedule.

-Why you want to join this team: Honestly, I have flirted with gold the past three seasons, getting so far as gold 1 at one point. I like solo/duo but I enjoy a team environment better because I find if I am helping someone else get motivated to improve, that motivates me to improve as well. I enjoy the team aspect of league and have been on/coached several teams in the past (both casually and competitively ranging from bronze-silver teams to two different diamond/master teams) I have taken part in and organised competitive play in the past, and I think its time to just buckle down and go for playing in it to win it again.

There is a decent chance that a friend of mine will be interested in coming along with me. We have been playing together off and on for 5 years so we have a bit of synergy already. I appreciate any time you put into considering me, let me know if you have any questions.

My op.gg is: http://na.op.gg/summoner/champions/userName=TheFallenKnight

A fair warning, I have not committed much time to ranked yet this season, as I just left a team I was coaching and my coaching schedule took priority over my own solo/duo time. I have played a TON of Fiora recently because my top needed to learn how to play as/against fiora (it was his crippling wekness) So I took it upon myself to learn her in order to teach him how to do so. (just in case you were curious)

just asking, how can u coach an elo when u are at the bottom of the said elo constantly every season, especially when ur w/rs are low with low kda's? I think its best to just keep practicing the game before you decide to coach.

-Current Rank: Silver 3 91 LP 12W - 8L -Desired Rank: Gold 3 0 LP -Role [off roles welcome]: I play mainly support, but I've played Top and Jungle for multiple teams because that is what they needed. -Main champs and the role you use them in: Alistar, Nautilus, Blitzcrank, Maokai, Taric, Lulu (not in any order) -Best way to contact you and the information to do so - League/Discord Ånchor / Ånchor#0081 -Available times to play/perform and chat so I can get a feel for you. Anyday after 8 pm est for the most part -Why you want to join this team - Im tired of being low elo, I don't exactly spam solo Q but I feel I've done that before and It didn't get far, I think a hand to guide would really be awesome. As well as I normally own teams and joining one where I don't have to do everything might feel pretty good.
