I began early this year to really commit a big part of my very limited spare time to the creation of Ivory Esports! My own Esport team ! [ See my first blog ]
Logobeta [image loading] (important to note that I havn't created this)

I started of planning a team model...that ended up being a huge list of things that I wanna to do / create! A huge list of stuff? More like a huge mess of ideas, some written on paper, some in a couple of word documents lying around on the desktop but most of them are staying in my mind swirling around almost making me bite off my fingers of frustration.

I have always thought of myself like a very organized type of guy and I really' am.
But sometimes you just plan to much, you try to organize absolutely everything. We call it "Mise en place" at work. (Working as a chef de partie at a really nice restaurant)

But problem comes when you simply plan to much. Everythinng just gets added up making it stressful and frustrating, thats where I am right now and I bet almost everyone have been in a likewise position!
Fighting together with my great ideas to make them happen while trying to clear my mind so I can think straight and stay focused instead of getting frustrated

Very basic "idea" of my Starcraft 2 team!
The team will exist of two different squads! Lets call them A and B squad for now! The B squad will exist of around 5-10 players of each race. The skill level of these players doesn't really matter for now. The B teamers will pretty much be "forced" to compete in (Scv Rush / Playhem / Z33k like tournies. This will not only increase our skill as a team but it will also be very good exposure for us, even if it's just a minimal amount it builds up in the end
The A squad will probably exist of one player in the begining,that I'm willing to sign, a professional player. Having a professional player is inspiring in many ways as a whole.

Will stop here for now, please keep in mind that this is just a little bit of the so called "core plan" and I will try to keep updating as I go forward

To tie this up! I would love to hear some of your ideas how you would like a clan to managed / look like. All ideas are appreciated, we can together brain-storm ideas to create a hurricane of awesomeness!

If anyone knows of better, easy use website like Enjin.com for creating community/team websites, please let me know

Salary, and also being the frontplayer of a team
And aspects such building up trust with eachother (keeping promises etc) Having a good and working business/team model also comes in to play

what kind of salary do you think a foreign pro is worth? how deep is your financial backing? how do you expect to generate revenue for your team?

I would start much smaller than thinking about a team/multiple teams, think about how liquid started, it was just a small group of players, you should aim to do the same. Think about bigger things when you start placing in tournaments etc.

Thanks for reminding me of that, it's very true that you say.

I'm only speaking from experience, I've started multiple guilds/clans across several games and always used to overthink the beginning. Just grabbing a group of players then slowly expanding worked far better than starting with a grand plan.
