Amazing work to everyone who played with us last night in our scrims! All of you did a fantastic job on our night one, and showed more promise than I could even imagine for a team this early on.

While more tentative trying out before registration would be ideal, we only have three days before our first match on Monday. Because of the time crunch, the paperwork is going to be underway sooner rather than later. For now, we have been registered under the name Wartortle Warriors for NA Platinum. A new Steam group has also been made in order to ditch our old, placeholder name.

The steam group is http://v1.steam.hlxgame.cc/groups/WartortleWarriors and I'll be sending out group invites soon

As an added note, do check the events group page for more scrims. We have two on 830 and 930 ET Sunday

Hello all, and welcome to the first announcement of the team!

So, a little introduction, just so we're all on the same page.

This team is one that is meant to be built for Platinum/upper-gold play. Ideally, we are looking to build ourselves and place ourselves in Platinum. Each player on this team has been approached and picked on premise of their great individual skills. Many of you I have played with before, and I have no doubts of your individual talents. Just the same, I know many of you to be great team players, and have every reason that you will all not only make outstanding players, but an outstanding team just the same.

This will be a new venture for all of us, myself included. This is my first time taking the position of a team leader, and I'm going to try my best to hit the ground running. We have many great talents here, and talent isn't meant to be seen, and not heard. I will do my best to communicate with each of you at an individual level, and make sure that this is a team effort.


Now, with that out of the way, next up is our team roster. Mind you, that because of the stage of team development, this roster is tentative and not final. This team, by luck of the draw, is a late creation, partially spawned from the recent death of Tree Forest. Many of us have committed to other rosters as starters or backups. Due to that, we will be doing a few practice scrims in the time we have left, to determine whether or not our roster is suited to take part in the season, and until such time, it is understood that the players on this roster may not be final.

Tentative Roster as of 9/20/15:

Scout - Uber
Soldier - Dreadnought
Pyro - To be Decided
Demo - cole
Heavy - Serious
Engineer - Gamemaster
Medic - Rogue
Sniper - akemi
Spy - Evan


Scrims and Tryouts

Because the season is to start very soon, we will need to be rushing tryouts and the like, and will work to get them all within the week if at all possible. I'm going to have to ask that each of you try to be flexible and try to make time to make scrims within the week.

Ideally, I would like to scrim during the following times:

Thurs - 830/930 ET
Sat - 830/930 ET
Sun - 830/930 ET

Please message me and post here for which of these times you are available

Furthermore, if any of you have any questions regarding the roster, or just the team in general, be sure to ask.
