After months of competition, we have finally arrived at the Playoffs of the second edition of the Smogon Grand Slam! Before announcing the pairings that you are all predicting anyway, I would like to thank many people who helped me with the tournament up to now. kokoloko, Oglemi, bojangles, Furai, Zebraiken, Raseri and blarajan all spent their time hosting the different opens, so thank you guys! Thank you again Zracknel for your artwork, it is really amazing.

The final standings are available here and will be on site as soon as possible.
As you will notice, there is a four-way tie for the two last seeds, so aerialace TM40, blarajan, Ciele and Malekith will have to fight one more time to get into the finals, in a best-of-five match (UU, RU, Ubers, NU and LC).

Congratulations to all finalists!

Preliminary Playoffs:

7. Malekith vs aerialace TM40 - AATM40 got through on the basis of just 2 tiers, I think Malekith is all-round the better player here
8. blarajan vs Ciele - this is almost too close to call but as an LCer I'm rooting for Blara


Round 1:

1. Bloo vs 8. blarajan - really close but I just think Bloo is too strong. Though it wouldn't be at all surprising if Blara managed to steal 3 games.
2. Heist vs 7. Malekith - Heist is generally solid in all tiers.
3. Fuzznip vs 6. kokoloko - not really seen either play so I'll just go for the higher seed...
4. august vs 5. Bad Ass - August is stronger in UU, RU, NU and LC imo.

grats to all finalists, I'm pretty sure any of them will be a deserving winner.

4. august vs 5. Bad Ass - idk who'll win this match, august is p strong in a lot of tiers but bad ass is the baddest of asses and will pull out some random shit and win i guess
