hello friends,

It's been a long time since i wrote anything in shak3ys' corner. Mostly due to there being nothing i wanted to write about. But over the past two weeks i've been getting an idea. An idea that was so profound that, at first, i laughed it off. This idea was so insane that at the very thought of it hotshotGG would fly over to where i live with the rest of CLG and beat the seven shades of **** into me to snap out of it.

This idea, however, was fun. Something i wanted to write about. Somthing that we all dream of; To play at the highest level of league of legends. At the WCG season 2 championships.

now I have given you enough time to stop laughing. I'm going to say it again. I will be in the season 2 finals. If I succeed, I will be an example to any scrub out there that has a dream. If I fail, then I will have the knowledge that I tried to give hope to millions. Because, at the end of the day, we all need hope.

So where do I begin? How do you go from a 1350 elo scrub to one of the top players in the world? This is a question I couldn't answer until i thought about it more tonight.

I was sitting In my uni library. Glasgow uni library, for anyone interested. I was looking at all the people studying, all the people who have dreams. Ambitions in life. Some of them will make it, be the best in their field of work. Others will get jobs in their field and just get by. Some will work in retail for the rest of their lives. The more I thought about why this was, the more it became clear. Drive.

To be truly successful, you need to want to be the best. You need to want it more than anyone else. You need to work. You need to study. [penny in the air] You need to go to class and to listen to your tuto-

Go to class and listen. woa! [Penny dropped]

"I needed a tutor. Someone to teach me. I need to study and work at being the best. I need to work and work at it. To be the best, I need the best. Lol, what am I saying. I want to actually get a pro to train me."

- My thought process at around 6pm this evening

It's sounds crazy, but i like a challenge. Can it be possible for me to get a pro to actually make me a top level player? If I succeed, they succeed. They prove to the world that they are the best. So good that they can turn a scrub into a star.

I would need to get onto every EUw player I could. Surely someone in that top 3% of players would be as crazy as I am in even thinking about it.

So i'm going to set up a youtube channel. V-logging this journey. Every step.
For those MOBAfire vets out there who like my articles. Wish me luck!
For those new to MOBAfire, wish me luck!

For those people who will read this and shoot me down as fast as they possibly can, wish me Luck!

I will succeed,
Shak3y/vortéxi

Good luck man, nice to see someone pursuit his dream. I have the same dream but I guess I will just focus on my study for now.

Good luck.
I think you have problem, you need 4 other players nearly as motivated as you to succeed (with a looooot of spare time)

Sorry to rain on your parade.
Trained by the 3% top?
I mean, yeah your idea sounds legit and enthusiastic and such, but from those 3% how much made a name for themself and play on international tournament level?

Less than 0.5% maybe?

Even if you find one, you sure he will spent a hell lot of time on that tiny little project of whom? A noname player?

+You wanna spent 24/7 on LoL training while studying?

Nah srsly, cant rly imagine it.

Its good to have dreams and a aim, but dont think life will give you a ride...
