The Inaugural BW2 OU Tournament - Semi-Finals
 

Welcome one and all to the very first BW2 OU tournament here at this fine institution known as Smogon. The release of Pokemon Black 2 and Pokemon White 2 in Japan has shaken up the OU metagame considerably, and this tournament will give us our first real glimpse on this completely new tier. How well can you adapt to these changes? Will this tournament allow us to determine the brokenness of these powerful new OU threats? Why does LoL suck? Over the course of this tournament, we will attempt to answer these pressing questions!
