Hey guys!



You are new to this blog or missed the last couple of posts?
If you are new you should check out my first entry in which I explain the concept of this blog.
If you missed the last few entries just go to my blog and check out the missed posts.
You should also make sure to follow our Twitch.tv channel as we are streaming our practices from Sunday to Thursday at 7pm British Time.
You want more information? Follow us now on Twitter @DistortionDota





Practices have always been black and white for us.
One week we might lose to every semi competent team and the next one we would just play like we have never played before and win everything. Last couple of practices were definitely very white.
It started with us winning more or less convincingly until we ended up completely stomping people yesterday,


Personally I have definitely improved a LOT as a player and I also got my captaining skills back.
It is really satisfying to see that I finally have a positive impact on our games and don't just play solid but actually do some game winning moves. I have to be careful though. With confidence comes pride and with pride comes arrogance. And we all know what happens to arrogant people. I don't think this will happen to us as we have another tournament on Sunday (where we will probably get our asses handed ) but you never know!


At this point I want to thank Beana aswell!
I told him about my concerns of us only drafting reactionary and therefore lose to everyone who has a planned out strategy. Everytime I talked to my team I got neutral/negative comments on figuring out some strats so I never really did it which made drafting hard for me and sometimes even lost us games. So Beana told me I should just work out some strategies on my own without telling my team and then just draft them.
Now that I started drafting with a certain goal in mind and trying to get certain heroes for a strat I feel like we play way better and start to improve again.
So yeah.. Thank you Beana for getting us and especially me and my draft back on track!


What is left so say?
I am looking forward to today's practice and I hope we can continue to ride on the wave of success and own people on Sunday ^.^


Questions? Ask them!


NoLuck out!
