Tempted to return to the game, how is the schedule for training? how often do u train?

[Lukoi Banacek]

We play comp nights currently (Tuesday and Thursday) as either a practice session, a run in compQ or both. Right now the middle crew needs Div A/B level talent to round out its roster and is holding sessions twice a week.

Typically we get the groups together around 9pm EST and run for a few hours on the formal nights.

Wednesdays are a "casual FP night" and until MRBC starts back up, the schedule will remain fairly open like this. Once MRBC is announced on the horizon (basically once the qualifier phase for WC is largely over) we'll start scheduling scrimmages etc against teams based on their skill/experience levels, given that we have three squads currently doing Competitive play.

Given your Jarl's list, you'd be a definite fit for our middle team and potentially could move your way into the next team up based on how well you gel with folks -- or the second team could conceivably continue its improvement and end up direct competition with the first team.

[BlackDrakon]

what is a "Jarl's List"?

[BlackDrakon]

Ok, now I know what a Jarl's list is, im on ur teamspeak if u wanna chat.

SA still looking to field new teammates as the WC qualifiers wins to a close.

Our 373rd Cluster is still looking for top level talent interested in pushing the entire squad to greater heights in the WC and the fall season of MRBC and beyond. A pilot highly capable in all weight classes, with understanding of how to fill their intended match role with a minimum of direction, is on our wish list.

Our 173rd is also looking for regular, highly competitive types, with or without alot of comp experience but who are strong pilots, capable of following the drop calls, focusing fire intelligently and good situational awareness.

The 505th is looking for 2-3 players that play very regularly, are looking to learn and develop in the group and competitive environments. Experience in the comp scene at any level is helpful but not required. Its more about shelving the ego, and working with the team to earn wins.

All three clusters are looking for guys willing to be patient when needed, and get aggressive the split the call comes to do so.

My real life issues(wife) are now permanently cleared up.

I'm rusty AF at the moment, but I've got 100+ mechs, have been on or led numerous #1 teams over the last 20 years(I ran MiT in VL and SL), and have a tendency to overdo it if I get with a good group of guys. I follow orders well, can aim, I'm a good sport, and as long as you don't mind the fact that I swear like the pirate I am, you'll probably think I'm funny.

I'm available 7pm to midnight, pacific, on weeknights, and weekends that I'm not doing music stuff, I'm wide open.

I'd like to do comp, not FP, as I don't have time to grind it out, but I really do enjoy teamwork and competition and will gladly be on time and ready to go for people that give me the same consideration.

[Lukoi Banacek]

HK, you're welcome to swing by any time. I know given your recent return to MWO and the rustiness that comes with it, you'd probably fit right in with the divisional team run by our Aidenmpryde/Xylog (co-captains for the cluster).

Our website is SmokeAdders.com and we use the TS/Discords advertised there. Gig around for some drops with us (Sundays, Tuesday, Thursday most populated nights, followed by M/W - weekends are low pop for us).

Hi,
I'm an EST timezone player and looking for a unit. I've been playing for just a few months and just made tier 4. I have about 6 mastered clan mechs and am just looking for some cool people to work in with, learn and get better at being BA. Please let me know what you need to join your metal smashing parties.

[Therax]

Hey, we are dropping group queue almost every evening, just get on the Teamspeak and hit us up. If you are looking to play comp the 505 is our entry level team and has practices on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 9:00 EST.

Smoke Adders is recruiting specifically for 3+ positions currently, for this season's Martial Olympiad 8v8 series that starts in March.

Looking for 1-2 competent, experienced players looking for their first time in competitive play or are still relatively inexperienced and looking to get more comp play under their belt, for our 505th Cluster.

We're also looking for 1-2 top tier pilots looking for comp play, that want to make an immediate impact and seeking a starting role. These aren't introductory positions, so upper level play is mandatory and we're not looking for back ups or roleplayers. This is for those looking to compete at the higher levels (Division A or , and to dive right into the theorycrafting, smart dropdec builds and play against of the best teams/players in the game.

SmokeAdders.com to learn more about the gang, or hit us up on the MWO Competitive Discord / StranaMechty Teamspeak, where anyone tagged SA can get you linked up to check us out.

Good hunting.

[TDanger]

Hey.

Looking to try out competitive play. I played MWO for a bit back in 2016, dropped it for a while, and recently picked it back up a few seasons ago. I ranked 728 on Jarl's last season (Average score 321, with 373 games played). Wondering if I can make the cut, or if I should keep at it.

Thanks

[ColdStar00]

You guys still taking pilots? Do you run trials?

[Therax]

SA is still active and taking new pilots. We do run a Trail of Position for new recruits after they have been voted into the unit. More information about the Smoke Adders unit, how to join, and the ToP can be found here on the website: http://smokeadders.com/forums/953170

[ColdStar00]

Thank you Therax hope to hear from you and/or the adders soon.

[Atlas32]

Hey, I'm looking for a group to join and I'm wondering how to get this started. I played competitively for a few years since closed beta with a few groups. One of those groups was SWK if that means anything to you. Doesn't look like they're still around.

IGN is Atlas32 and I'm in the EST timezone. Thanks
