I don't want to put people on the spot but @Professor Oak and @STB Sgt Reed come to mind as far as coaches go.
As much as I appreciate the support, I haven't done the homework on most characters nor am I a good enough player to be a coach. Quite honestly, I could use a good coach myself. Now, I can tell people how to beat jax and when they can blow him up (because he's my main) but that's about it aside from generic tips like, hey you suck at AAing people. lmao

For example, if someone is consistently losing to Kabal and look to me for advice, I couldn't tell them a single thing to do. I have no idea. I haven't labbed it and don't know what to do myself. I get bodied by that hoe. lol

Yeah I get that, I can help people with Cass but other than that all I have is Scorpion MU experience XD

Also, I labbed yesterday on my tv and eh...the input lag? I knew there was some but didn't know it was THAT bad. I'm gonna have to play on my monitor all the time now. FFFFFFFFFF

I'm gonna change some things with the coach option. First of all, there won't be a limit to how many players a coach can help in a season. As long as they are providing sufficient help then that's all that matters. Second, I'm going to go ahead and override/approve the following:

@Based Pr0digy (Coach)
@LawAbidingCitizen (Coach)
@Juggs (Coach)
@Kindred (Liu Kang Specialist)
@Vslayer (Cassie Specialist)
@karaokelove (D'Vorah Specialist)

I'm just flattered someone thought I was good enough to be a coach! lol

Told you that monitor looked crisp af! I've thought about using a monitor myself, but I'm too cheap lmao

I think you are :D

The difference is night and day. For Cassie's gunshot combos, after that J2 or J4, I have so much time to get B24 it's not even funny. I get back on my tv and I have to scramble to get it. Sell your tv and get a monitor, there you go XD

Yeah I have a 2ms response monitor ASUS I believe and after getting that I'm never going back. Standard 4k/Flatscreen TVs have between 40ms-120ms (For Real).

Oh I believe it lol. But back when I bought my tv I bought it with the delay in mind. Looking for the lowest I could find. I'll have to look when I get home, but I may just upgrade to an ASUS. That's what I have for my PC.

Thanks, but I certainly don't have the time to take in the impending swarm of wannabe D'Vorah players!!!
You said you wanted to coach, but didn't feel qualified. I figured if there were 1 or 2 players that wanted to learn D'Vorah or at least get good MU experience that it wasn't a bad idea. No worries, I will go ahead and remove you.

Ha, no, it was a joke. I'm happy to coach anyone who is for some reason interested in playing that character, or who wants to learn how to play against her. I won my first set in the previous tournament 3/0 because my opponent was unfamiliar with the matchup.

I usually check out DisplayLag.com. https://displaylag.com/display-database/

There's so other rating services out there to that can let you know which TV's have decent display lag.
I second that
Oh wow, okay that is HUGE. yeah, I'm gonna steal my PC monitor from now on.
Yeah check up yours on the link marlow posted To see, usually when u buy em they have a esports certified logo
Thanks, but I certainly don't have the time to take in the impending swarm of wannabe D'Vorah players!!! (But seriously, if anyone does want some matchup knowledge or wants to learn how to use her, feel free to hit me up.)
Yeah D'Vorah takes more coaching than most lol

How competitive is the league? I'd kinda be interested in joining the Xbox league, but at the same time I'm nervous about joining a league where I just end up getting washed each week.
It's all about leveling up. I did this same thing in ForeverKing's patreon and I remember losing week 1 1-5 to a player who I later beat 5-4 the week after. Study the recordings and lab out your options. It's very rewarding.

This.

If anything, this league is a great platform to play other players with good sportsmanship (unlike most of KL) and get usable MU experience with different playing styles. All of it can be used as experience to get better, and at least have some fun.
