AT Practice Sub List

Hello fellow space-pew enthusiasts!

I've been a huge fan of the alliance tournament for several years but have never had the chance to participate, having been primarily involved with small corporations without the ISK/numbers to join. I love solo/small gang PVP and I'm quite happy with my group of friends, but I have always regretted missing out on this unique gameplay.

I was briefly part of a large wormhole alliance (before it failscaded Big smile) and got to join them for some AT practice on Sisi, which was some of the most fun I've had in EVE. However, even a large group like them struggled to get enough people logged in to practice every week, which got me thinking...

I'm sure there are many people like me who love AT style play but aren't in a position to join a participating alliance, for whatever reason. And there are probably also plenty of groups that struggle to get enough people online to practice. Therefore I would like to humbly submit my name as a substitute for those days when you're just one person short but really want to test out your fleet comp. And perhaps if other people are in a similar position to me, they can respond to this thread with their interest. If enough people are interested I can make a list in the OP or start an in-game channel so people can easily find a sub in their TZ when they need one.

Now of course I understand the importance of secrecy when it comes to fleet comps and tactics. I would never expect the "leet" teams to allow a random person access to their strategies and I completely respect that. I suspect that some of the greener teams however, would benefit more from an extra body than complete secrecy, if it allows them to practice when otherwise they wouldn't. IMO anything that encourages more groups to reach a competitive level is a good thing because it makes AT more interesting for everyone!


Just a bit about me (and I'd recommend other interested parties volunteer this as well) - I can fly most all subcaps (some mauraders and command ships excluded). I prefer the tackle/anti-tackle and ewar roles but I am comfortable in just about anything. I've also got logi 5 and a fair amount of experience using it. I'm not leet but I'm not terrible either.

OK. Commence trolling. Blink

I think you should join to one of AT-team for realizing your aspiration.
in any case, while you don't have team, you will be considered as spy.

Thats sounds like a wonderful idea.

I'm not sure any teams would take strangers on board just to make numbers up for practising, but I'll stick my name forward offering my services.

I'm not 'leet' either but I'am quite bad.

I can fly pretty much anything except Mauraders and T3 cruisers.

If you login to sisi on Saturdays at 19:30 and travel to S-U8A4, TEST holds open practices. Open as in any team may show up and get a scrimmage vs anyone else. At worst you will be able to watch teams scrimmage.

If you want to participate in AT, I suggest you try to join a corp in an alliance that you know will be participating in AT. But do so soon since the alliance membership deadline could be announced at any time. Last couple of years it was actually in May.

Shameless plug: Dreddit is recruiting.
