PapaDrayich, leader of Swedish clan
[TsoG]TS-Gaming, recently wrote up a blogpost on what he felt were the failings of the competitive scene. He argues for organization within teams and harsher punishments for lack of organization from tournament holders. This is a must read for everyone who is in the Heroes of Newerth competitive scene, or would like to join it, as a team or as an organizer.
Here is a part of his blog:
This blogpost is not ment to be offensive, read this with open mind, and dont get stuck on my language. I've lately got some things to me, some things that im completely sure that ruins the competetive part of this game. So this blogpost is only directed to the "competetive scene" and noone else. I think this is important.I've said it before. We need to step up in order to make the game more serious, its not about taking away the joy, its just about making the game look more organisated. In that way we create organisations interests in taking part, its half the thing. You think sponsors only are interested in results? Then your wrong, sponsors wanna be seen in positive ways, where their names are connected to things that are making them look good. Not the opposite. One part of that is teams with high manners, leaders with peopleskills, teams accepting interviews, teams helping out casters, newswriters etc. But the other part is the organisation of teams, where alot of teams still fails.
