Step 1: be russian
there is no step 2

‎

Not sure exactly how it is over the pond, but if you perform well in pugs with high level players you will get noticed at least in nahl. Kinda goes doubly so for medic cause most pug medics are ass lol!

Beyond that, if your networking attempts go nowhere you could try to make your own team. Fair warning though that I have seen plenty of people try to make a team to get into a higher division because they had huge egos and thought they were better than they were (these usually crash and burn). On the flip side though if you legitimately believe that you belong in the division this might be a good way of proving it.

youll either get lucky and there'll be a team looking for one or youll probs need to play another season of div2 with a strong team. same goes for 6s

You could also try to make your own team, but that's a pretty tall task, especially for HL.

first u need to get it

or like cloudy you can learn russian

I actually would not mind learning russian, as it is a good asset in applying for jobs at the ESA
LFM russian ?

play lots of pugs, ask for and accept criticism from higher div players. i remember you added to senate pugs a few times and from what i recall you were a nice dude, but u didn't wanna listen to our criticism that you weren't healing hurt players quick enough.

Yeah that was probably my bad, I was just slightly annoyed by the fact that one guy was making fun on my british accent by calling in a stereotypical accent - at first I thought it was just for laughs but afterwards it just got boring and then annoying.

Normally I'm down to take criticism and I don't mind some micro here and there, but when you get some situations like:
Your demo is 50hp near a dispenser, nobody else is hurt or pressuring and someome is saying "ok arrow your demo here"
Like cmon, I know what to do lol

Just a bad day I guess that I went off on people after the pug, saying comms were full of useless stuff. Sorry to those guys anyway the comms weren't actually as bad as I made it out to be

I made it to the div1/prem area 2 separate times both on med and spy at one point and for me it was mostly about knowing people and trying to be chill.

Merc as much as you can and play pugs etc. Unfortunately a lot of the higher div teams can be a bit circlejerk-y, but I found that once you got into those circles it all got much easier and people will almost come to you with new team prospects. People also seem to usually be willing to give you a bit of slack on the game play side of things if you're open to learn and improve during the season.

If nothing materializes right away then just work on yourself in div 2 for another season, nothing wrong with being more confident in your abilities. Best of luck!

yeah Rahmed I remember playing with you and I thought you were fine at med :)

the pug atmosphere is take it or leave it, don't take it too seriously. hope you add up some more

i mean people inevitably need medics as few people can stomach the class in hl for more than a couple seasons lol. get in with the community, don't get a huge ego and teams will give you chances. also keep in mind the next season is in september so it's a bit early for teams to really be looking

4hp also needs a solid med for v5 next season so add him for trials!

yo rahmed here's some sound advice for you

don't

Make your own team
