Friday Night Dota 2

Hi everyone! First off, I would like to thank Ackalight for the effort he put into this group over the first 6 weeks putting this group together and providing us with 1.5 months of fun. I wish him the best and hope he'll come back to join us whenever he can.

Yesterday night was a great showing! I hope everyone had fun playing all random and reverse captains mode!

One thing I've noticed through the first 6 weeks of FND2 is that some people are finding it difficult to find traction playing in some of the games. I know the game is a bit difficult at first, and maybe throwing people into those situations cold turkey can be a bit intimidating.

One of the driving philosophies of FND2 is that people of all skill levels can drop in and have a fun time. In an ideal world, we can have enough people to have different lobbies of different skill levels, but we're not quite there personnel wise.

To perhaps get people closer to even footing, I'd like the gauge the possibility of building a mentoring network within FND2. I think having people learn from the more experienced people in the group in a more closed environment with no pressure to perform will help build a stronger bond between people in the group, as well as help new players get more comfortable finding their place in Dota 2.

So to get the ball rolling; I'm calling for instructors. If you're interested in helping out, fill out the google doc below:

Once I've aggregated the instructor list, I'll open things up for people to find the instructor and time that works for them.

Don't be afraid to play! Hope to see everyone again next Friday!
