The Unscrupulous Tiering Director Tournament - Semifinals
 
Signups / Round 1 / Round 2 / Round 3 / Round 4 / Quarterfinals

If you haven't heard, we've decided to revise Smogon's tiering system. Everyone knows that the OU council is run by people who don't actually play, and suspect tests are just ban-happy bandwagoning fools who don't appreciate what Blaziken and Shaymin-S contribute to the metagame. Our new system will be a democracy: everyone will have a say.

The Unscrupulous Tiering Director Tournament


Rules:
Standard OU rules apply
- No Ubers
- Evasion Clause
- OHKO Clause
- Sleep Clause
- Species Clause
- Drizzle + Swift Swim Clause
- Moody Clause
- Wifi Battle
- Timed Battle

This is a BW2 Tournament. Battles are to be played by default on Showdown, but can be played on PO if both people agree.

Sign-up Instructions

Whatever you ban will remain banned for EVERYONE in the tournament--that is, until you lose. If you lose in this tournament, you will be deemed unqualified to act as a tiering leader and will be assassinated by Smogon administrators in the middle of the night. Your bans will be revoked at the beginning of the tournament's next round.

You may ban something even if other people have already banned it. Bans enacted by multiple people will remain in effect until all people with the same ban are eliminated.

You cannot change your bans! Nobody likes a flipflop tiering leader.

Substitutes' bans will not take effect. Substitutes will adopt the bans of the players whose positions they take.

I have included the banlists both in the form of a spreadsheet and in hide tags below. I have also included a list of available OU Pokemon.

Make sure to review these lists carefully!

Spreadsheet

Banned Pokemon
Banned Moves
Available OU Pokemon
Unbanned (red indicates newly available)

Notable bans (does not include everything):
- Drought (Ninetales) is banned; all other forms of inducing weather have been unbanned
- All entry hazards are still banned.
Meloetta, Genesect, and Shadow Tag Gothitelle/Gothorita are all banned, seeing as they did not exist at the beginning of this tournament.

Notable unbans:
- Rain is back; Politoed has been unbanned, as has Scald and Thundurus-T.
- Jirachi was unbanned.
- Baton Pass was unbanned.

Last round was pretty much upset central; will the trend continue?
