ozfortress announce TF2 mentor program
Heals, 25-Aug-09 » Source.
The ozfortress mentor program provides teams and players in the community with the chance to learn about TF2 from the best. Some of the best players from bitchbangers, exile 5, intensity, pretty good, and spadebox are ready and willing to pass on some of their knowledge - so get involved!
There are two types of mentoring available.
Individual
A consultative approach between applicants and mentors to address specific class/role issues. As a general guide, a mentoring session will last between 30-45 mins. The purpose of individual mentoring is to help players with very specific issues, not to teach you how to play the entire class from scratch. If you're a demo wanting to improve your spire defense, feel free to apply. If you're a demo who doesn't know what spire is, come back in 6 months.
Team
A wider-reaching approach where the mentor becomes embedded with your team by playing in scrims, coaching on vent, and idling in your private irc channel etc. Mentors are able to address a range of issues over a longer period of time, and help a larger number of players improve through their mentoring. Mentors can slut to demonstrate how to play a particular role, improve other team areas such as rollout/attacking/defending, and help to improve team communication.
If you would like to be a mentor but did not receive an invite, please contact Ravelizard via pm on the ozfortress forums (http://www.ozfortress.com). The mentor group is fairly select at the moment, but we will consider expanding to adjust for demand.
