Whether as a player for our League team or behind the scenes: choose below how you want to apply.
Sleepless Monkeys is an ambitious League of Legends team in the Prime League, founded by two friends who love esports. We are not a just-for-fun team: we train in a structured way, work with a coaching staff and our own coaching platform, and want to climb step by step. Results, discipline and continuous improvement come first, while we stay respectful and human with each other.
With us you get fixed structures instead of chance: regular scrims, replay reviews with a coach, clear roles and personal development goals that you track on our coaching platform. You play official Prime League matches every Sunday, get targeted support and have a whole organisation with management, content and community behind you.
You need to be at least 16 years old.

The position you enjoy and play best.

This is a requirement to join this team.
Are you willing to follow the instructions and guidelines of the coaching staff (in-game, draft & strategy), even if you personally disagree at first?
Answer honestly: a no is not an automatic rejection, we will talk about it.
Are you willing to actively use our internal coaching platform to document your progress, review VODs and work on your weekly development goals?
The platform is our coaching tool; you get your own access there.
Team results come before personal preferences. Are you willing to put serious time into champions the coach or the team considers necessary, even if they are not your favourite champions?
This means real practice, not just a few games on the side.
What are your current top 3–5 main champions?
Separate champions with commas, your strongest first.
Are there champions you don’t like playing with in a team comp, or that you really don’t like facing in lane? (With a short reason)
One or two sentences per champion are enough.
How would you describe your playstyle? (e.g. aggressive lane bully, safe scaler, roaming-focused, teamfight enabler)
Feel free to describe a typical game of yours.
How deep is your understanding of wave management, matchups and comp building? Do you actively make calls for the team or do you mainly focus on your own play?
Examples from real games help us the most.
How would you describe your communication in team voice, especially in hectic phases or when the game is close?
What do you say, when and how? Examples welcome.
How do you deal with a game going really badly or with mistakes in the team?
What concretely helps you calm down again?
What is your biggest strength as a player, and which weakness are you working on most intensively right now?
Be honest; weaknesses are the starting point for coaching.
How do you handle direct, constructive criticism in replay reviews?
Think of a situation where criticism helped you improve.
Have you already gained experience in fixed teams, tournament structures or the Prime League?
Teams, leagues, tournaments and time frame; short stints count too.
How many hours per week can and want you to invest in fixed scrims, replay reviews and solo queue? Which weekdays besides Sunday work best for you?
Better realistic than promising too much.
Why is our learning- and results-oriented approach exactly right for you?
At least 20 characters. Tell us what drives you.
Is there anything important we should keep in mind in our first conversation, e.g. stuttering or shyness? Or things that simply matter to you? This field is entirely voluntary.
Fields marked with * are required. Your application is sent to us by email and is not stored on the website. We delete it no later than 6 months after our decision. More in our privacy policy (in German).
Your answers matter so we can prepare for our conversation with you. So be sure about every answer and rather write too much than too little.
Content, management, casting, coaching, analytics or something completely different? Pick your areas and tell us how you would like to get involved.
Multiple choice: pick everything that interests you.
Who are you, what would you like to do, and what do you bring?
