Althougth we don't have a team atm i really wish we did. For all those saying all the negatives, no one would force you to play, and I've played many clans over the years, was offered into a pro team once (didn't have to time though) and i love a good bit of competition. Randoming on ego is great, but some of the more frequent or skilled players like to have a challenge once in a while, rather than just dominating some people who only play every other week. Also i find large 2fort or large dustbowl matches much more fustrating than clan matches, as in a large map you get get killed by sheer fulke because of the sheer amount of wall of players on each side.
Also it would premote the ego name, if we had a good team in the competative team with sponsers as well, we could further advertise the ego clan and its ethos. I don't think its fair to say "would should have a clan because i get to ariated and get angry at other people in competative play so everyone will, therefore no one can" which almost seems the message from some of you!
