Locke and Load: Recruitment now closed.

favabear

This is a brand new alliance with plans to grow. I am currently looking for a team to get started with, kick ****, get some nice rewards, and have fun along the way.

As far as requirements go, the name of the game is semi-competetive. I will be reviewing applications on a case by case basis and the requirements will be pretty loose for now, but I'd like to be able to see that you are capable of competing well in tourneys. If your roster is on par with or better than my own (I'm umbrus in game) you can probably expect to get in, and if you're willing to pay for a slot, that's a major plus as well. I'd also like to hear a bit about you in a forum post; your play style, ambitions, and the kind of people you'd like to be playing with.

Our alliance is growing quickly and we've made it to the top 50 in a less than a day. If you're interested in being part of a new team and building something together, I'd love to hear from you!

Update: Our alliance is nearly full now and the remaining slots are reserved. We have an alt list running in case some of our reserved members don't show or people drop out, but we have more people on the alt list than we have slots, so at this point we're pretty much full in that regard as well. Thanks to all the people who made this happen!

Yo, I'd be interested in a position in your alliance.

Current roster:
Punisher (Dark-Reign) 2/3/4
Storm (Classic) 5/5/3
Thor (Classic) 4/3/5
Daken (Dark Avengers) 5/3
Captain America (Modern) 4/4/5
Ares (Dark Avengers) 3/4/4
Moonstone (Dark Avengers) 5/3/5
Bullseye 0/4

+ More, but those are the ones I usually use.

[Play-Style]
I'm a fairly new player (about a month or so). I play fairly often usually doing my lunch breaks and commutes to and from work and some in the weekends, sometimes more often if the reward character is someone I want.

Don't really have a usual play-style normally I just go with characters that have an advantage in events. I do fairly well usually ending somewhere up in the top 20-50 slot.

[Ambitions]
My current number one ambition is to complete my Bullseye collection (one of my favorite characters in Marvel).
Then my ambition is build up a decent enough team that is also strategically viable with characters that I like (usually Dark Avengers, lol).

[People I'd like to play with]
No real preferences here just some people who play the game enough so we can get some Alliance Rewards

@Zandoruu Oddly enough I haven't run across too many bullseye covers either. Seems like you've done a pretty good job so far. Go ahead and look up the alliance and apply. As of right now, I have a slot available for you.

@Aureatian I approved your request. Welcome aboard!

We're off to a good start so far. The initial 5 spots should be full soon, and I'll be expanding it a few times out of my own pocket after that. If anyone can contribute towards more, that would be excellent. Additional slots will start costing 800 HP +100 for each new member. If anyone who applies can pay for their own spot, it would be tremendously appreciated.

favabear

I would also like to extend a hearty welcome to turbo (ingame: JohnMcguirk) one of our innaugural members!

Id like in.

Chief270

Daily player. Still building. Favorable mmr thus far.

MasterBoRaiCho

If you got space and interest in some poor sap like me, I'll sign up. Got a 2* lineup moving into a 3* lineup. Roster's more wide than tall, but I'm working on that.

Unknown

Ill be donating any alliance hp earned rowards expansion until we are full.

favabear

Sweenz and MasterBoRaiCho, welcome to the team! And with that, we're now at 5 members, so I've gone ahead and added another two slots.

Thanks a ton for your offer to contribute Sweenz. Unfortunately, I don't think there's any way to contribute HP in that manner currently. Hopefully they'll implement it soon. I think as of right now I'm going to be paying for most of the slots myself, but once we get more members, anyone who'd be willing to unlock a slot would be doing a major service to the alliance and would earn Commander status/lifetime membership. But let's cross that bridge when we come to it.

Hey i requested to join. Im an active player looking to help out an alliance.

favabear

Two more faces have emerged from the shadows to join our hallowed halls: Welcome Pylaeron and BKhamamoto! With our current roster we are now ranked number #72 on the leaderboards after less than a day of existence!

pylaeron

Glad to be invited! I've been playing for a few months now, and am probably a little too obsessed for my own good. This is one of the only games I play anymore, sooooo yeah. I'll make sure I do my part to take us to the top. Thanks again!!

Thanks for all your applications. Welcome, Zandouruu, Auyeung01, Brillig, and adahlg! Glad to have you!

I'm stoked about the number of quality applications we've been getting. Our alliance is now at rank #37!! This is above and beyond what I was expecting, and it's clear we're going to have no trouble being a competitive alliance. I'd love for us to also be a fun community to be a part of, so feel free to hang out here and get to know your teammates. Once recruiting cools down, I'll open up a social board for us.

We have another 3 slots available and I am officially out of Hero Points. Once we fill those slots we'll have to figure out how we want to move forward. Until then, we are very much still welcoming new members.

Unknown

I'd be interested in joining up. I play daily and I use to be on the forum more often. I'm generally guaranteed to be in the top 100 for most tournaments. I don't usually get to play near the closing points which hurts me more than anything. And my username matches my in game name so feel free to look at my roster.

There is some way for others to pay for slots, as many alliances require it of theor membership. Maybe making someone a commander makes them capable of doing so, but who knows. Ill keep track of my alliance hps and let you know if I hit a threshhold that can help. We'll go from there.

Hello there I'm interested in joining if you still need members.

I'm a steam player so I'm inactive during work hours but play pretty much every day before work and in the later evening EST. I've been able to get a few top 5s in recent events (just added 3 Doom covers from the Divine event, relied mostly on a team of mThor, Daken, and Punisher) and easily hit all progression awards in the last big Hulk event but just missed out on the three lazy Thors. Been a lurker on the forms for a while and figured signing up was the best way to find a decent alliance. Wish I had found the boards much sooner so I wouldn't have spent all that precious ISO on 1 star heroes and ventured beyond the prologue before it was almost complete. At least I'm super prepared for the next lone star event!

Current roster:

85 mThor 5/4/4
78 aWolv 5/4/4
73 Punisher 3/5/2
69 Daken 5/5
58 Hulk 5/0/2
53 Cap 3/5/4
52 cStorm 3/3/4
50 IM35 5/5/3
50 mStorm 5/5/3
49 oBW 4/1/4
40 mBW 5/5
40 Juggs 5/5
40 Venom 5/5
38 Ares 2/2/5
34 cHawkeye 5/5
31 Psylocke 4/1/2
30 cMags 1/2/1
29 mnMags 3/3/2
25 DDoom 3/2

18 LazyThor 0/1/3
