Ya I can't say I agree. Sure taking a break after a leg is to be expected, but 3 weeks? I dont know who was actually there for ASF last night but we have a lot of work to do or we're just going to finish bottom of rAge. A flurry of friendlies won't take us up a gear, it's just warmup for what will be a very tough compo. How many other 1st Div teams do you think are taking a 3 week break?
We still need to pick and prac our 2 other maps. Bazaar, Karakand, Sharqi or Tehran. Thats at least four friendlies right there and we shouldn't fit those map pracs in right before rAge. I'll make a poll post for that discussion tonight, we need clarity on our map choices as soon as possible so we can all focus on our team and individual performances.
Don't get me wrong, I hear you all about burnout and gettin time to do a few things. I am also pretty tired and frustrated so a week off sounds good to me too. But. There is a growing sense of complacency in the team and a resignation to just play whatever and get it done. That's all well and good, we achieved our goals but who feels proud about just lying down and dying?
Our team has an attitude problem and it limits our potential, say what you like about me, its still true. We only try when we absolutely have to otherwise auto pilot and some blame gaming is just fine. I want to improve further and make a good showing at my first rAge. A half arsed effort will only fool ourselves and lead to heavy losses which doesn't make the rAge party very good at all.
Whatever it's just my view on it and I can't force people to see it my way. We must honour the BOC friendship so at least 5 of the Baggers making prac with them is really not negotiable in my books.
