It did not take too much time since we met first time. We run a training center for professional gamers called Ministry of Win. Over the past months a lot has changed in the functioning of our house, and there is even more work ahead of us!
If we would tell you that we achieved the goal that we set and this gaming house is perfect already … it would be foolish. We are developing this project by basing on our experience and learning through the hard work that we already put in. It will take a long time till everything will be on the level that we basically expect, but the reward at the finish line is a dream come true, not only for us, but also for the players, professional gamers - we want to develop eSports and we will do it.
Who can apply?
Everyone. It doesn't matter if you are not from Poland, you are in Platinum league etc. It is all about your ambitions, however, we will choose the best possible players at this moment. After making a video don't forget to post it in this thread and send it to us at secretariat@ministryofwin.com. We will accept three players for 3 months.
What already happened?
- we have announced our first LAN event – Battle at Ministry of Win: get outplayed with 5000USD prize pool
- we started our live-streaming page: twitch.tv/team/ministryofwin
- we attended Business Mixer: Games Event, which selects one of three the best companies in the gaming industry (kind of a good exposure for e-sports in our country)
- we had more than 15 different gamers in total
The most important things that are going to happen now:
- we are going to hire psychologists, motivators and other staff members to improve players improvement via provision of resources known for traditional sports
- begin the road to total abolition of the cost of training
What needs to be in the video application?
- Introduce yourself
- Tell us something about your career
- What would you like to achieve? What’s your short-term and long-term goals?
- Why we should choose you?
We wish you best of luck in fulfilling your dreams and we can’t wait to see a lot of applications. We are accepting them from now till 20.08, we will announce the winners at 25.08 and from 1.09 we will be accepting the players in the house.
UPDATE:
We are accepting applications for another 24 hours (till 00:01 CET @22-08-2012).
We have received 78 applications in total which is a very nice score! Thanks for the interest in Ministry of Win, a lot of nice names applied. Announcement of the winners will take place on 15.00 CET @ 23.08.2012.

While I think these MoW updates happen a little too often, I'm absolutely stunned at the amount of work they're willing to put into this venture and think that if it ends up failing it will absolutely not be due to lack of effort and ambition.
The only thing I could suggest is that we don't really know why we're sending in video applications (we being the community in genearl). It seems to me like you guys are picking a player (or multiple?) to train at the MoW house for free for a set period of time, but that's not actually stated in the post. Assuming I'm right about that, are there any requirements as to who can or should apply? I mean, I'm as interested as can be about seeing where a gold level player could get with dedicated training and the resources available at the MoW's disposal, but is that what you're going for? Are you expecting mostly GM level players? Players living in or around Poland?
Just seems like the OP could use a little more info.
Good luck though, to all applicants and to the MoW in general, really, REALLY love this idea. |

can you maybe mention who the players are below each picture? would be interesting to know 
in my opinion the ministry of win concept is really great but you guys do a not so good job marketing it and the players involved imo. noone even knows who exactly is even there^^ today for example I found out Fuzer is there, which I find interesting :DLast edit: 2012-08-11 03:33:42 |
