IMHO, being in a Legends game leaderboard is hardly proof of any PvP experience. Primarily because the lack of moderation (and attention in general) in the previous games has allowed killfarming and botting to go unpunishable. This is coming from lengthy personal experience. Secondly, on AL, because the game is rotating around gear and cliques/guilds controlling the PvP rooms and definitely not skill. Again, this is coming from top-tier geared semi-active player that's been playing AL since s2. Overall, the only thing being on LB shows is that the said player has put in a lot of time. And that's about it.
Moving on to the actual criteria:
-Communication Skills
Anyone willing to participate must be able to effectively communicate with the devs and clearly get their points across. Fluent use of the english language is necessary. For example, forum community leaders are proven to fill this requirement.
-Basic MOBA Experience
CoC is quite a simple game in my opinion hence there's no real need for those heavy DOTa/LoL requirements. I understand there have to be some sort of requirements to cut down the sheer volume of applications though.
-Alpha/Beta Testing Experience
Especially at the beginning of the alpha, there will probably be a need for ample testing in order to assist and provide the devs with suggestions and error reports. This way all those people eager to get their hands on the game will enjoy the finalised product with the least amount of irritating details.
I'd like to nominate GoodSyntax and myself (Madnex). Although my name's been suggested thrice already and got numerous PM's on the topic outside of the game, I'd like to highlight that I'm not (yet) sold by the new game's concept but rather interested in taking part for bug/exploit testing. Been with STS since Q2 of '11. Here's a few topics we've made to showcase the in-depth, analytical look we take on game mechanisms:
