VHL Appreciation Post

 

 

Alright, there's not going to be much formatting for this VHL Appreciation Post, because to be honest, I don't really know specifically how I want to format it. Regardless, here we go let's get this Appreciation post underway!

 

@samx@JB123 Might as well start with these two, because without these two, I wouldn't be in the VHL. Honestly, I kind of owe my entire experience here to these two people. I remember being in a different discord and hanging out, every single day being begged by Sam mainly to join this thing called the VHL, which I had no clue what it was to be honest. I would always go on NHL and play "be a pro", and when I figured out it was exactly like that basically, I was totally in. I was reluctant to join at first, but then JB123 kind of told me basically how much of the week it would take up and what I'd be doing. At the end of the day, I ended up joining the VHL and these two people I owe my experience to, thanks both of you! Also, sorry JB123 for not signing to the San Diego Marlins, you had a great pitch .

 

@Alex@Masu Chan Next up, we've got the old Reapers GM, and old Reapers AGM who ended up picking me off of waivers in my first season as a member. I could go on and on about how fantastic these two people are, especially Alex who showed me the ropes and how to do everything that I know today. Honestly, my first experience being on a VHLM team was an amazing experience, and without Alex, there could've been a chance that I didn't return after my first season. On top of that, Alex ended up drafting me in the VHL to HC Davos Dynamo, which was great to see we were finally going to be reunited once again! I'm super happy and glad to have my career under Alex's GMing skills, because he's a fantastic GM and he does an amazing job. Now to Masu, who is the current GM for the Reapers. Masu and I immediately clicked right off the bat management wise, and I've been with him ever since. Masu is a great person to talk to about anything, and he also helped me with a bunch of my GMing jobs that I ended up landing in the last off-season, kind of teaching me the ropes on everything from the Simon Client, to just a general idea of how to run a team. Without him, I'd probably be lost as a GM and I've learned a ton being under his wing. Sadly, he has to suffer because the Leafs ended up getting eliminated, but I'm a Sabres fan, so Alex and I suffer even more .

 

@Spartan Alright, this is a big one. I was trying to figure out where to put him on this list, trying to go in order of my career so far, but Spartan has honestly been one of the most important figures I've met in the VHL. I immediately knew that once I found out he was a Golden Guardians fan, that him and I would be friends for a very very long time. He's honestly such a great guy to talk to, and he's very knowledgeable too! Spartan was the AGM for the Brigade and he helped me along, answering a million of my stupid questions that honestly, I don't know if anyone else could handle, as he described it as "I feel like I'm babysitting a toddler.. LOL" All in all, Spartan is one of the people I enjoy talking to in the riot-games section of the VHL, and I for sure will stick around to be able to watch the Golden Guardians suck with Spartan crying along the way!

 

@Shindigs Moving along, I've got Shindigs next that I'd like to give some appreciate to. Honestly, we started talking not too long ago, and he's just a great guy to talk about anything to, to be honest. I remember when we would talk about the VHLM GMs for the future, before he ended up being the Las Vegas Aces GM, and I was like "You're going to get the job for sure, there's no way lol" and look where they're at right now, dominating the VHLM! I don't really have much more to say, as we haven't been talking for a super long time, but I hope we can continue our HD rants in DMs!

 

@KaleebtheMighty This'll be a short one, as I don't have too much interaction with Kaleeb, but with the short time I've had with him, he's been a fantastic GM. Istanbul this season has been a wild ride, and I'd like to thank Kaleeb for bringing me to such a wonderful franchise. At the end of the day, I'll only be able to spend one season in the E, but in the future, I'd love to return to Istanbul with Kaleeb at the helm. Seriously, he's a great GM and I hope you guys can experience being on one of his teams, it's a great time.

 

@comrade cat@Dom@eagle_3450 Next up, this'll be a short one, but this is the Team Asia team that I was the GM for that made a miracle run all the way to the finals of the tournament. These three players in the locker room made sure that no matter what happens, we were having a good time. I still don't know how we ended up getting second place, but with a great locker room, anything can happen!

 

@jacobcarson877@Brandon@Spaz Alright, this one is currently going on and is pretty recent. I want to thank Jacob and Brandon especially, because this season in Istanbul has been an absolute rollercoaster of a season, and these two have made our locker room a great place to be and honestly super hype. We started out as a middle of the pack team honestly, then we kept dropping games and it looked like potentially we could be towards the bottom, but then Siyan decided "It's time." and delivered one of the best speeches that will go down in Istanbul Red Wolves history, regardless of what the finish is. Istanbul then went on a 12 game win streak and currently are in a playoff spot. Our team this season has been nothing short of spectacular, and I would again thank those two people for honestly making it so special. I also wanted to throw Spaz in here, because he is the AGM for the Red Wolves and he also makes sure we're active in the locker room and having a great time, exactly what an AGM should do, good job!

 

@Baozi@Nykonax@Enorama I know there is more people, but I can't find their username on the VHL website, regardless this goes out to all my boys in the riot-games part of the VHL server. Whether it be us playing League of Legends, or malding over the fact NA is awful at every single international event, or in general, it's always a blast to talk to you guys and you're all a main reason I stick around to be honest.

 

@Moon Really short one, but thanks for letting be on that VHLM Draft Show and just sit there and say random stuff. It was a super fun time and hopefully I can do it again sometime!

 

1000+ Words, claiming next two weeks.
