Team Kracken Esports is looking for people to fill out a second team. We're a group that is looking to get involved with tournaments pretty regularly. We also Stream every game session, and review our replays in an effort to find and eliminate weaknesses. As it stands right now we've got a strong team with reliable and like-minded members. We've got all but a Jungler for our second team. We've scrimmed against them and they are incredibly talented individuals who are already starting to work really well as a team. The two teams will also operate as sub-pools for each other, filling in whenever possible/necessary in order to keep the two moving forward.

What roles are available: Jungle

What we are looking for in players: **- Age 18+

  • Ability and Desire to spend multiple hours a week working with either team
  • Drive to increase personal play - both through ranking and visible skill/understanding of the game
  • Good/Positive Attitude - No trolls, overly excessive trash talking, or people prone to raging out please
  • Ability to self assess and look for your own faults, as well as being able to accept when someone else points them out
  • Must use Dischord
  • MUST HAVE BEEN PLATINUM OR HIGHER IN SEASON 6
  • Must be active in current pre-season and future season ranking - We're all trying to get better - Bare minimums need not apply.**

Please use the following format when applying for the team: IGN: AGE: OP.GG PROFILE LINK: ROLE: S6 ENDING RANK: CURRENT SOLO/DUO RANK: CURRENT FLEX RANK: DISCHORD?: AVAILABILITY: WHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST WEAKNESS?:

I will make sure to add and talk with every single applicant, in an effort to ensure the best possible candidates populate the team. If there's no application here in the thread, fully filled out, you will not be considered. Feel free to add me in game if you have any questions - just be sure not to add me unless you've filled out the application and posted it. Good luck, and I hope to see you guys/gals on the rift!

IGN: Rhet0ric AGE: 23 OP.GG PROFILE LINK: http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=rhet0ric ROLE: jungle S6 ENDING RANK: peaked plat 2, ended plat 5 from 7 months decay CURRENT SOLO/DUO RANK: plat 4 CURRENT FLEX RANK: silver 1 DISCORD?: yes AVAILABILITY: 5pm - 12 am weekdays, all day weekends. Eastern Standard Time WHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST WEAKNESS?: Die a lot in early game jungle invades, but when I don't die I tend to secure a lot of gold for my team. Strengths: Early game duel aggression with a transition into early - midgame fast paced tower sieging through both poke and teamfight style compositions. Also willing to sacrifice my kda to allow my adc / mid / top laner to achieve a gold advantage. Constructive victory is all I care about, I leave my emotions at the door when it says "minions have spawned." I am focused on the mathematics and strategy of esports, not blaming others.

Experience: Have taken 1st place in several amatuer online tournament leagues with cash prizes and riot skins. Also have graphic design and excel spreadsheet data analytics experience. Can make your team logos, banners, scrim result data lists, etc.

Very passionately looking for a new team home. Nidalee Olaf Graves Elise Gragas Khazix AurelionSol Hecarim RekSai Talon Vi Volibear

IGN:dim2a AGE: > 25 OP.GG PROFILE LINK:http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=dim2a ROLE: JG S6 ENDING RANK: Decayed to Gold 1 from plat (came back a few days ago) CURRENT SOLO/DUO RANK: Gold 1 (didn't play much ranked after coming back) CURRENT FLEX RANK: Haven't done provisionals (so far 1-0) DISCHORD?: Yup AVAILABILITY: Evening best for me. Available most times as long as I know in advance WHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST WEAKNESS?: Teamfight positioning (working on it!)

A few more things: 1). I love that your team is focusing on improving rather than just playing 2). After a few months break my skills, and my ranked, have decayed. Skills will be back to mid-plat level in a couple of days. As will rank if I only spam my mains in ranked instead of focusing on learning. 3). Two things are very important to me: Feedback so I can improve (I don't tilt, if you see something I can improve on, tell me!), and team being able to practice/play when schedules -- I make time to be at practices, and when they regularly don't happen because teammates do not take it seriously (was the case in previous team I joined), it will not work. 4). I tend to default to shotcalling objectives, both because jungler = more time to look at the map (I can take eyes off gromp more easily than you can take them off that ahri mid), and because strategy is my strength. I can make an effort not to if we specifically want someone else to shotcall, but longterm I prefer shotcalling or co-shotcalling objectives. 5). After coming back from a break is a good time to learn new champions, so I will learn whatever champion best fits the team if I don't know them already.
