So it's been a while since I've mentioned anything on here. So I figured it's a good opportunity to lay out all the necessary info in one place. As I'm sure you've checked out the forum at some point over the last week or so and have noticed it states that we're taking a "break" via the timetable thread, I use the term break loosely.
What I haven't gone into detail about is the reasoning for that. Recently our mid-laner decided to take a break from the game as he didn't enjoy playing it, this meant the rest of the team would have to find a replacement to play for us for an extended period of time. Soon after that our former support decided to leave, giving added stress to finding and gelling with new members, meaning countless hours of practice and building up synergy, which no one at the time was in the mood for.
Naturally this was an annoyance to everyone on the team who already had dis-enjoyment towards playing as was. With the added stress of finding new players, I decided it would be a good idea for everyone to take a break from the stress and time commitments that organizing and playing together on the regular basis was, toppled with finding and getting to know new people simultaneously.
To avoid any confusion this does not mean that the team has given up and that we're finished. We will be back at some point, which of course will be mentioned here first before anything official happens, but when we return and have re-established the main roster, it's likely that things will go back to normal at a slower pace with chances of a some changes here and there along the way.
Another thing to mention along with all this information is the lack of presence both on the forum and in-game. This is to be expected as we're taking a break on all basis, which kind of goes without saying!
So I hope this perhaps over-due update has cleared up any confusion and let's everyone know where they stand, I'll speak to you all soon.
On a personal note: I've been pretty busy later with college and some YouTube related stuff and since Worlds is on at the moment I've been enjoying that. I've typically been playing in my free time in the occasional soloq game here and there. But watching Worlds is definitely keeping me relevant with the game!
