Forming Ranked 5's Team, Need Players
1. Introduction Hello all, my IGN is Flixy, and I'm forming a ranked team. This is going to be a larger post. I'm currently Gold 3, and was Gold 5 last season. I'm quite a flex pick at the moment, and am open to playing any role, although I prefer top at this point in time. Because of that, I'm technically looking for all roles, and I will end up taking one of them, again, probably top. Please read this whole post before applying for a tryout. Thanks! Also: I am not trying to go professional with this team. I'm not against it and if we somehow make it, I'd love to, I'm just being realistic. We're not going to end up being that good. (Probably)
