...I just don't know

I decided to do the blog more on a whim than i actually planned it out with what the topic was and how I was going to go about discussing it, but onto the real issue.

Yesterday the leader of my BW team was recruited by a more prestigious and stronger team overall. I'm extremely happy for him, happy to see a very good friend of mine succeed at something he worked so hard at and to move up in something we both strive to achieve. But, I was handed the leadership of our team, and to be completely honest....I have no clue what to do with the team. Sure I was friends and played with a few of the players on our team but I was never close with them like I was our leader(sorry I'm trying not to reveal his name because he would like to remain anonymous in his new clan). I just don't know....at all.

I'm not mad, that's not the point. To be completely honest, I'm kind of jealous. I'm jealous and sad. I've seen our clan start, grow, and now it feels like it's in decline and I have to deal with that. And as all of you know, recruitment into a D+/C- clan with reliable players is a bit iffy. I'm not going to give up though. Gunna try and get us back to where we were 6 months ago!

Well if anything thanks for reading, Guess I was just using this as a way to vent my feelings.

Nice post.

I've avoided teams for almost my entire bw/sc2 existence because I hate having to deal with drama/clan hopping/commitment. (Plus I'm super picky lol)

Good luck!

BEst of luck.. It's really hard to be a leader of a team. I was kinda leader of Get. at the end. It was hard, especially because we were in DIV 1 in most leagues. Just keep doing what you like. If you don't like been the leader, don't be! find somebody who likes that stuff!

thanks you too for the support. Hopefully I can be as good of a leader as he was.
