Shaking up RU: Finals! ^.^ [Won by Living Things]

***Jellicent**** · Oct 2nd, 2012, 1:10:19 AM

Shaking up RU

One of the coolest aspects about playing the lower tiers is how they change every few months. Pokemon move up and down the tiers, shaking up the metagames and testing the players' abilities to adapt. This tournament will take this test to the next level for RU players, forcing them to constantly adjust each round as something either moves up from RU or down from UU/BL2.

Rules and Clauses

Previous Rounds

Finals: Woo, finals! All three of you did awesome work, but the can be only one~ We're playing Standard RU (including the recent tier changes; bye bye Cofagrigus, hello Stoutland), except Bisharp (the mon we all hoped would drop) is now legal. Also, Krookodile, Durant, and Froslass are still legal and Slowking and Sceptile are still banned by previous rounds. Good luck you three, and have fun ^.^

Finals Pairings:

DestinyUnknown vs Living Things
Living Things vs SilentVerse
SilentVerse vs DestinyUnknown

Since there was a draw, the finalists have to play another round robin with Moltres banned as well :3

Finals Round 2:

DestinyUnknown vs Living Things
Living Things vs SilentVerse
SilentVerse vs DestinyUnknown

Rules and Clauses Tournament Rules: General tournament rules and regulations can be found here. Best of one, single-elimination Standard RU - Singles The banlist for this tournament will be the Smogon University RU banlist, with an exception: each round, either something from RU will be banned, or something from UU/BL2 will be made legal.
