Xerograde knocked out IPL and Bad Intent lost in top 8.

Top 4 starting now.

bearsfan092 · May 22nd, 2010, 7:37:28 PM

So this means IPL had a top 16 finish?

Sniper · May 22nd, 2010, 8:02:53 PM

I got to the top 24, but my group and I had fun so it was a good day

Supe · May 22nd, 2010, 8:03:12 PM

Xerograde takes it all! Glad to see smogon take 1st place again.

Team Rocket Elite · May 22nd, 2010, 8:05:45 PM

Congrats Xerograde!

Firestorm · May 22nd, 2010, 8:06:09 PM

3 for 3. Congratulations Xerograde!

Congratulations Xerograde!

bearsfan092 · May 22nd, 2010, 8:24:43 PM

If IPL has to lose, it might as well be the the winner of the whole thing.

Congratulations xerograde! Smogon with a sweep so far.

It happened like 20 minutes ago bro. Give it a day or two. Or at least an hour or two.

Congrats to xerograde and all of the other smogonites who placed in the top 16!

Wow, seriously? It's been like an hour since it ended! Be patient! I gave Bad Intent my spot in the crowd so he could get close enough to record the final battle. He got some great footage of Marriland and the mc showing off their air guitar and dance skills during the battle too.

I think Ninahaza recorded a semifinal battle as well.

Havak · May 22nd, 2010, 9:14:36 PM

Congrats Xerpgrade! And IPL too, glad to see you at least got an invite to Nationals :)

J-Man27 · May 22nd, 2010, 10:01:15 PM

Congrats Xerograde. I did well, as did all my friends

Shinryu · May 22nd, 2010, 10:14:31 PM

<-- 3rd. Thanks for everyone forgetting about me!

imperfectluck · May 22nd, 2010, 10:16:46 PM

You were the guy last year that didn't want to meet anyone, right? I don't think anyone knew who you were...

Congrats to Xerograde, cool guy, you played really well!

moonside · May 22nd, 2010, 10:21:36 PM

Lost first round to the guy with the bad ass Gengar earrings.
Kinda depressing to lose so quickly, but it was a fun match. :)

CCM30 · May 22nd, 2010, 10:41:01 PM

3/3 for Smogon, a good track record so far. Congrats to the top 16 and especially Xerograde.

mattj · May 22nd, 2010, 11:06:40 PM

Good job Xerograde!!

oh and Bad Intent and IPL too!!

I knew you could do it BI!!!!

Cybertron · May 22nd, 2010, 11:23:06 PM

Nice job, IPL, Bad Intent, XeroGrade, and Shinryu on representing Smogon.

**ΩDonut** · May 23rd, 2010, 12:20:43 AM

You'd think a Lugia with barely a sliver of health left could be KO'd by STAB Close Combat, even with that 4x resist. (Hint: it does not.)

Nice work, Xerograde! I wish we had a chance to talk more after the tournament but you were buried in all the paperwork they gave you.

Shinryu, you need to hang out and talk with us at tournaments more.
