How I joined vaceGaming

How everything took part

I was proudly presenting a normal day of a Fortnite professional. I searched up for tournaments in my old clan, meta eSports. A little group, which titled themselves as a "Professional eSports Organization". Well, at least it wasn't too bad. 

They started of with giving us hope, telling us about potential salaries in the future. Good joke. A poorly organized clan, hooking people up with empty words. At least the other clan players were nice. When my duo teammate (Joel) finally joined with me, we played a lot of tournaments to represent meta and rank up to the "First Tier". Pretty impersonal, handling people who are representing the clan like workers or something. 

Now that I've changed my view to the whole thing, I could literally say anything bad about meta. But I'm here to tell you the story how I joined vaceGaming. So, let's start.

I was playing the vaceCup 2.0, which was organized pretty well. We didn't win, but we earned experience and got pretty far by that. We saw, that vaceGaming was an official society, so that seemed pretty legit to us, when we asked how it works with the membership. My teammate was quite skeptical, as we just joined meta and were about to leave so soon.

A week later, I decided to make a step and tell my teammate that we will stick as a duo, but I will change my ways and be part of vace. My mighty written words apparently made him go with me. So we read rules, had a job interview and luckily, we got to join.

First thing to brief me good, was that they usually had a minimum age requested to join, but they excepted me, even when I'm 4 years younger than 16. 

We founded an academy team for Fortnite, played tournaments and even went pretty well on the most. So on, I won a solo 100 Euro competition. I started feeling great from there on, as vace was really motivating me.

When we were fresh in, we talked a lot with the management, especially Leo and Joni. A really nice person, and she does care about people. We told her that we wanted to buy a jersey or some other cool merch stuff. Instead of saying: "Oh yeah, just go for it, it's pretty cool", because then the merch would be sold and they get money, she gave us an advice, and told us to not buy the hoodie or the shirt, as they don't like the quality. We had a lot of cringe conversations too, but not coming from her side. We decided to call her up and videochat, so yeah. She saw my 12 year old baby face. When I think about that now (even when it's just a couple months later), I actually feel a little bit sorry for her, because it's impolite leaving the call or synonyming something for "I have to go now".

Another point, is that vace is organized pretty well. They use a ticket system, which allows everybody to do their work, so there was literally no chaos. They've got plenty designers, which were able to make me profile pictures, banners, backgrounds and screens within minutes only.

Joel and me were fed up so good, that we decided to take a step more. We asked if we could become a pro team. It seemed pointless for Leo, which I can completely go with, but we were super hyped about upcoming events.
