Your First Month – Emerald, Diamond, Master+

This article is for Emerald and above members to get familiar with how the program works, so you can get the most out of your membership.

These are general guidelines. You can complete these tasks at any pace or order you wish.

Step 1 – Getting Organized

The first week is all about familiarizing yourself with the program (Discord and Online Platform) and choosing your champion.

Part 1 – Introduction

1. Join Discord via the Dashboard. Your login details can be found in the welcome email.
2. Go to the ☝︱role-assignment channel and self assign roles. It’s ok if you don’t know which approved champ you want to play yet, Rank, Region and Notification will suffice.
3. Briefly read the Community Rules & Guidelines to learn about the standards in the server
4. Go to the 👋︱introduce-yourself channel and tell us about yourself (use the format below)
   – **Who am I?** What is your name, where are you from? What do you do and what are your interests/hobbies?
   – **My league background.** Why did you start playing? How long have you been playing for?
   – **Why did I join the Academy?** What are you looking to get out of the program? What is your ranked goal?
5. Start browsing around, using the Discord Channel Manual to learn the purpose of each channel.

Every week there is a “Member Check In” event, where members have the opportunity to come and chat to Coach and meet the community.

New members are encouraged to attend these (at this time only available in Mid Lane Academy).

Step 2 – Get Your Gameplay Reviewed

1. Check the Calendar on Your Dashboard for the review schedule.
2. Attend one review session just to watch and listen in to get an idea of how it works.
3. Read the article: Recording your gameplay.
4. Sign up to the next review session. Read “Get Your First Review”.
5. Post ONE clip with a question in ⏯︱vod-questions. Learn how this channel works here.
6. Go to the Champion Forum and find your Champion main thread and drop a message.
