While many might not think a book about eSports and video games would be interesting, there are a lot of struggles each of these people had to go through in order to become the successful organ. Inspiring I only got the book because I like Optic Formal, and I think he's cute. Also I got the book because I have a MLG team and needed inspiration for us to get us to the top of the leader board when we do game battles. I read it and gave inspiration to my team and now we're top 250 out of 5,000 teams. It's great for inspiration.. OpTic WoRThaSHot Not great. Timeline continuity is shot when you have so many perspectives. Would have been much better if H3CZ have the history of OpTic and then let the rest of the org add there sections in as an epilogue or something.
