best, what you should decide first is "What clan am I looking for?". Judging from your ladder games you enjoy a more competitive warlight so look for clans that offer a more strategic base. If you prefer diplo games join a diplo clan or role playing join CORP. If you hate yourself join pooncrew or darklords.
Some clans have pretty high standards, some have none at all(ie darklords). It all depends on you. How did I get into M'hunters you might ask? I've played tons of games with a council member of the clan and I just messaged him and showed him a few of my games.
Im certain if you find a decent enough clan all you need to do is show them a few games or maybe play a few games with them before they accept or reject you.
If they all reject you(except for darklords cause they accept everyone) then there is always the alternative of creating your own clan.
Goodluck on your search, hope my information was helpful and unbiased Regards Nogals
Hey, The best! You might want to follow your 2v2 partner's decision, and join a certain interesting clan that caters to both strategic and diplomatic gameplay :)
By chance - Just keep playing games and meeting new friends. Someone might invite you to join its clan after you played a game with it.
By PM - It is never bad to be proactive. Just ask the clan leaders if they are interested in you. You may get a place. Who knows?
By thread - Open a new thread in the clans forum. Advertise yourself. Ask if any leader wants to take you to a clan. There is always a good chance if you ask.
Clans are people and if you put yourself out there they will recognize you. Don't act immature in games and play in team games the best you can because it shows your skills as a group player.
