So it has been awhile since I have actually given an update on the team and what I have been doing lately. If this is your first time reading, than I'd love to just let you know that I have started a blog that documents every (business) decision I make and the thought process behind it, for this new team I have decided to create.

The last two weeks and the next week will be super busy for me, as exams and final projects are starting. Honestly not much thought has gone into the team as of late.

The last post I made was whether I wanted to major in marketing or management and which could help towards a career in e-Sports. I'll be meeting within an academic adviser this Wednesday to get hopefully get a better understanding.

As for the team I have been thinking about it more and more and this is honestly one of the best teams to form a new team as HotS will be going to beta soon and LotV is soon to be coming to beta as well. This is a new opportunity for players to showcase their skill and for teams to capitalize on this chance.

Before I had discussed about starting with a Starcraft II division, as this was where my roots came from. But in the last 5 days, I got into the alpha for HotS and in the small amount of time, I'm now floating around 2800~ MMR. Being a programer has defintley been goal number one for me and if I were approached by a team to sign on as a HotS player, Impact eSports would have to be put on hold. I will continue to play HotS and officially sign off playing Starcraft II now and see where it takes me. On top of that I think starting with a HotS (whether I am a player or not) team will be more beneficial and low risk, but high reward due to the nature of it being a new e-Sports team.

Only time can tell what will happen. So for the next 2-3 months all my focus will be going into practice, practice and more practice for HotS. Thanks for reading and I will try and post more blogs about the team in the future.

Are you making a team because you want to manage one, or because you want a guarantee you can play?

Games change once your team starts to float around 3500+ MMR in Heroes. It becomes sooooooooooo much more high level, it's insane. What are your current hero picks?

Guarantee to play? Why would I want to create a team for me to play? That doesn't make any sense at all. Why use resources like building a team, when I could just be playing in the first place. If I am good enough I will place myself on the team because I do believe in putting a face to the brand, however if I am not good enough than I will not.

If I am picked up by any professional team, than it helps create my individual "brand" which in the future can definitely help build a team (think Axiom and Total Biscuit).

people have suggested, being an individual entertainer and building a brand through that is very hard for me, as I do live in a very small town with very terrible internet connection. So right now pure skill is something I will have to lean on.

That is what I have heard and I am sooooo excited to play at that level of play haha. Currently in my rotation is Valla, Arthas and Tyrande. I'm trying to balance it out with each role.
