Application of the Madman

Hey there, my name on PO is PrancingMadman. I've been away from the game for about 6 months now, but I came back recently and have tried using my BW1 teams in the current meta. They need some adaptation, but I believe I can still go toe-to-toe with the best. I believe the following is what I was required to fill out?


Why do you want to join Xclusive?
After coming back to PO after a 6-month sabbatical, I decided it would be fun to join a clan. I noticed there are a large number of new clans, but the first I looked for was Eon since they were big when I was last online. I decided eon is trash. After watching some of their battles, they stink. Key is alright, Hero is good but full of douchebags, but Xclus so far has seemed like a good place to land-Better battlers than Key, nicer people than Hero. I also figured I could use a little help getting back into the game, and this looked like a good place to start back up.


How did you find out about Xclusive?(referral,ladder,tours, etc)
I watched a few of your matches, I've seen your members in #tournaments, many ways.


Are you currently in any other clans? (if so, you will be expected to leave them for Xclusive)
None, at the moment.


What is your username you most often go by?
PrancingMadman


What is your ladder/rank peak?(screenshots)
I have no screenshots, but I peaked #12 on the BW1 NU ladder and broke 1400 in Ubers and 1300 in OU. Given time I can certainly regain those peaks if I need screenshots.


What can you offer for Xclusive?(battling skills, conversationalist,youtuber, etc)
Teambuilding is my definite Forte. I would often win battles through misplays and hax because my teams are excellent. I'm a decent covnersationalist, I suppose, but Youtube isn't my thing. I can help out in a number of ways if anyone needs it.

Lol. Be more active in Channel and if your active enough, we'll put you into Xclus B. We don't want dead members

I figured since I'm starting to look respectable again, that I would post my current ranks. over 80 points in NU (2-0), over 1200 OU in 24 battles, I believe I am 21-3 on the ladder currently, and I am undefeated thus far in Ubers play. I intend to increase these rankings even further as I get back into the rhythm. Thanks for your consideration

lol. Those points don't look respectable yet to me '3'

they arent, im rather miffed at them myself, but thats because i havent had enough time to ladder (I only say semi respectable due to the number of battles, NOT the number of points). Dzi can vouch that I am a good player, as can that Brandon from IMP.

You should hang out in our channel and if you continue to show promise we'll add you.

Been hanging out there. You have a cool group of guys

These are my new peaks. I went 5-0 in OU since my last run, and am undefeated in LU since picking it up yesterday. I've played some NU and Ubers as well, dropped a big one in ubers but made it up with 3 solid wins, meaning im 3-2 since my last post. I figured since you wanted me to "continue to show improvement", I would update periodically with my rankings. My next goal is 1350 in OU, which seems easily achievable in this meta.

Say what you get 1350 and we'll add you

I feel hes way better than what his rankings say. Otherwise, do what Nexus said.

Dzi, I just need to be able to spend more time laddering. I'll be back on top soon enough lol
BTW, nexus made me an Xclus "B" today, so we're good to go! Gotta start laddering all over again though... lol

Big time peaks here, 1460 on an alt in Ubers and nearly the 1300 necessary for A team in NU. Also, I took the screen cap from my trainer info to show off my HTMl coding-if someone wants one like it, send me a message here. And finally, I will be away from PO for the next week or two, but I will be back-I just have some school things to straighten out. Until I do that, though, I regret to say I will probably only be online on weekends (stupid grades lol)

Spoiler:

Well done, your added to Xclusive A! Good job

Thank you
