    The Art of Warfare Blogs: TAW Blogs


    In the Scope: iKoN v.2

     

    What's your callsign?

    iKoN.

     

    Let's get to know you – can you describe yourself in five words?

    The Only Dota FPS King.

     

    Tell us about your history in TAW.

    MI got my initial start in Taw by surfing the forums trying to find a community of people who play DOTA casually. A few weeks later I had already been a DI, TI, TS, FS, SO, and XO. As we launched into a division I was given the CO spot of the NA giving a big recruitment push. After a couple of months our DC stepped down and I got moved into the DO position and before I knew it Cheese and Wardy honed in and snatched me away to Vanguard.Since then I have had the opportunity to work with many members and games inside of Taw giving insight of how to recruit and develop divisions into successful well oiled machines. Now I am looking forward to helping out with the ESO online team in the near future. :)

     

    What was your initial impression of TAW?

    To many rules to be honest, I was a bit overwhelmed with all of the policy and such.

     

    Tell us about your division, and what you do there.

    Currently the Division Commander of the Horizon Division. I help develop and look over starting new team, but this role is a bit different compared to other DC positions. I also will continue on with a team when they are launched into a full spin up team in Vanguard being one of the main contacts for NA. That is why at almost any given moment in the past 4 months I had 2 to 3 teams under my name.

     

    What would you like someone considering joining TAW to know?

    Not everyone is as hard or strict as the introduction depicts. At the end of the day it is a well nit gaming community and if you are accepted in it will be some fun times with good people.

     

    Do you have any special hobbies or activities outside of TAW?

    I enjoy golf, tennis, and watching sports

     

    If you could change one thing about TAW, what would it be?

    Retire Brave, KingCheese, and Wardy. (Just kidding, read my grump for a good laugh) Honestly the biggest burned of this clan is the website + recruiting process.

     

    Tell us about some of the people you've met during your time in TAW.

    There are all walks of life inside of TAW. Weather it be someone whose birthday is every practice, or someone who wants to make sure everything gets done to a T, or a "Ten minute Talk"

     

    What's your favourite thing about TAW?

    The fact that I get the opportunity to make a majority of the NA side of vanguard life easier and not have to worry about petty things.

     

    How does TAW affect your offline life?

    I dedicate a good amount of time to TAW and have been a bit more laid back these past few weeks due to getting so many games out and having a small charge of new games. I'm still working up the courage to tell my current girl friend that this is something that I do a few hours a week. :P

     

    What might our readers be surprised to know about you?

    I actually want a professional game and made roughly 25k in competitive gaming and had the majority of my gear paid for through sponsorship. Games consisted of CS 1.5/1.6, Guild Wars, AvA, and Dota. My past teams consist of Check Six (x6), Numero Uno Clan (NUC), xlr8, Dinos, Area 51 (a51), Divine Talent

    , The Next Empire(TnE), Core Gaming (cG), Bligh Gaming, e7, TEE

     

     

    What's your favourite retro videogame? Why?

    Anything nintendo. I am a hard core Zelda and Mario fan. I bought the Wii just so I could play skyward sword all the way through

     

    If you could choose any TAW member to be stranded on a desert island with, who would it be and why?

    Saul, Wedges, & Rukudo, See signature on ts for details

     

    Do you admire any celebrities? Why or why not?

    No, they give a bad impression on society today.

     

    Who do you believe is going to be the most influential figure in gaming in the next three years?

    Gabe Newell with out a doubt. Owner of Valve and even if you are not a Dota 2 fan just check out what they are doing for e-sports in general. It was literally like watching sports center but for Dota 2. He will continue to make strides.

     

    For their time, effort and dedication, this member will be awarded our In-The-Scope member tab for completing the interview.
