Quick twitlonger to provide a bit of perspective on things.



Despite the amount of shit we got for the 0-4 start vs. LG/eGr, SoaR is not a bad team at all in regards to either gameplay or environment. Jigz/Andi/Homie/Vet are all very talented players who are easy to work with. We got along really well and people had much better attitudes and were also way more accepting of criticism than I'm used to from previous teams. I'd rather not go into the specific problems I had with the team dynamic as I don't think it's very important and I don't like dissecting the inner workings of SPL teams.



There was also no attempt to 'sabotage' SoaR. I didn't get Nulisa on an EU team or send sam4soccer2's family off on a vacation so that there would be no backup for me. To be honest I didn't even know who the subs were and since I've never been the captain of a team I didn't fully understand the logistics of weekly rosters needing to be submitted by Tuesday night. To further complicate things my tryout for NME/eUnited was on Tuesday night since SoaR didn't have scrims that night. I let Jigz know about this as soon as I was given the offer, which was Tuesday afternoon. I didn't say anything to anyone else at the time because obviously that would have been a disaster for the team morale had I decided to stay on SoaR. These circumstances left a ~2 hr timeslot between the conclusion of scrims on Tuesday night and the midnight roster submissions deadline for me to make what was probably the most difficult decision of my SPL career, inform Jigz/SoaR of my decision, and then have them magically find a new solo to replace me. Realistically that will never happen, so I strongly agree that SoaR should have been given an extension for the deadline. At the time however I was much more worried about the reality that whichever team I chose not to join would be pretty fucked in terms of solo options.



I didn't join SoaR with any intentions of leaving two weeks in and on that note I'm sorry to everyone who got shafted by this series of events. Ironically I actually hate roster changes, so this is both the first and hopefully the last time I ever do something like this.



This probably doesn't cover everything so my DMs are open if you wanna ask me stuff or maybe just send me a bunch of snake emojis.
