Hey teams and players. Here’s a few tips to help you recruit or be recruited.

In the title, please include:

  • [li]Player or Team?
    [/li]Are you a team looking for players, or a player looking for a team?
    [li]Where do you live?
    [/li]Usually competitive teams are region specific, tune to pings and practice times.
    [li]What version?
    [/li]Most teams recruit for a single version (PC, Xbox 360, or PS3).

Some examples of good titles. Having a little description beyond the standard format is encouraged!

In order for teams and members to find each other, you need a few core details to help make sure it’s the perfect match.

Here’s a few tips to include in the body for people looking for a team.

  • [li]Include your experience
    [/li]Tell us where you’ve competed before, what games, and how long! Any titles or other notable achievements? How familiar are you with mumble, ventrilo, anti-cheat software, and other competitive software?

    [li]How old are you?
    [/li]Some teams have age limits, so it’s important to include your age.

    [li]How serious are you about competition?
    [/li]Some clans are more community-focused than competitive teams. So definitely outline how big of a deal competition is to you as a player.

    [li]When / how much are you available for practices / scrims?
    [/li]Syncing up practice times are super important for most teams. Some may practice up to 3 to 4 hours every night (if not longer!) So not only what times you’re available, but how long you’re willing to play.

    [li]What is your contact info?
    [/li]Include your Steam, Email, and other contact info.
