I wish I could be a part of this, but seeing as how I don't have a mic, and I practice at really inconsistent times of the day, I feel like I wouldn't be a very likely/useful candidate. ;_; This sounds amazing though. | ||

Otherwise cool post I actually thought something seemed off with the headers too, I think you nailed it. Next time we'll definitely make sure they are more in line with the size of the text. | ||

Glon is good but for the most part this org has had very little impact in the sc2 pro scene since the first few months of sc2. Plus all of their threads seem full of self bumps...good luck to the players tho I don't seem to understand the organization. The self bumps stuff is literally stuff they're required to do. It's a bit nuts, tbh. the Academy is a cool thing, but I have to agree, I generally have a negative view of vVv as a team in general. | ||

I personally am aspiring to be a part of the SC2 scene in general, when I joined vVv they told me right away that their main goal was to be a talent factory for players, and I believe they've done that. I have only been at vVv for 4 months at most, and yet even I know that they have developed a lot of different talent. Ruff and Titan are both coaches at Hotkeyit.com now and were both very good for a while. Rocker is on LightEsports, and Daisuki is sponsored by Nitrix. I understand that for some reason you guys have a problem with Ruff??? I watched his stream for the longest time so I don't even know why. He's not even around anymore though. The point of this post is to tell everyone about vVvBabytoss' Aspire team, and how great it is. I have had a wonderful time on this aspire team, and I think it is one of the best atmospheres around. Not to mention KoDo that saying "this org has had very little impact in the sc2 pro scene" is rude and doesn't make sense. Most sc2 "organizations" don't even last 3 months. You don't know the history of vVvGaming or the contribution that LordJerith and the rest of the management have put into it. I am not bumping this thread because I have to, I am bumping this thread because I want people to be included in our environment, and I want to encourage other organizations to start academy teams as well. I encourage everyone who's reading these comments, to keep an open mind about vVv, despite whatever you might have heard??? and come check out the aspire team. | ||

But the point is that the main vVv team doesn't really seem to have much going on at the moment besides Glon being a strong player, so what is the end goal for these aspire players? To get good enough so that they can leave? | ||

People need to understand that often times pro-gamers are not pro-gamers forever and that eventually they will need to move on. Now, they can either move on and get a job involving some trade skill or they can put their talent directly back into companies supporting eSports...and one of vVv's goals as an organization is to make that a reality for them by improving upon those skills right now. Truly preparing their players for everything. --- That being said, I feel like I am completely talking them up because I better understand them now. Trust me, I was confused as you all were at first because I looked at them with the traditional organization lens. However, that just isn't how they work...and they should be appreciated for their originality. </rant> | ||

To get good enough so that they can leave? haha that's really true, its one of the reasons I had to leave back when vVv first made their sc2 team. Dunno they used to have a pretty good pro team until jerry made some stupid rules/changes which caused a lot of them to leave or become inactive. I am surprised Glon is still on vVv to be honest considering his decent results, but maybe they give him more then I am thinking ^^. | ||

Do note that I've written for several gaming sites before, including GameReplays.org. As for the gamer side, it's a wonderful place to be. It's a blast to play with the team, because they're actually all decent people, and good players. I've been in a few teams in my lifetime, some of which were comprised of, well, mostly trolls, but vVv has a pretty solid stance on teamwork and professionalism, so none of that here. It's a pretty sweet place to improve. I myself found it because I was "shopping" through various teams and asking if they had some sort of program like this. Nope. Not even an answer, mostly. I guess I'm the noob member there, but so far I've enjoyed my stay. The only thing I'd like to improve right now is for the SC2 section to become a bit more active, so go ahead and jump on that >_> | ||
