Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
1. BKC vs. 16. Playoff Winner: wingardium leviosa
2. Masterclass vs. 15. Leftiez: can they both lose?
3. Boudouche vs. 14. Conflict: babouche my hero gonna clutch this conflict boy with his famous GKnot Jirachi
4. Alf' vs. 13. CrashingBoomBang: Alf will offer a rematch in ADV, so will CBB in DPP. In the deciding game, CBB will offer another rematch after dodging some HYDROPUMP (Alf's Starmie is completely blind) and will forfeit. Alf will take the win because it's PAYBACK time.
5. High Impulse vs. 12. Ciele: idk who is High Impulse so I'm just going with my boy cielery n_n
6. M Dragon vs. 11. Bloo: Unfortunately for him, M Dragon won't be able to ask for wins or a rematch as mentions the famous M Dragon clause. On top of that, he's facing Head TD Bloo and his LEGENDARY LUCK, so no possible way to cheat.
7. Eternal vs. 10. Fakes: Eternal won't lose as I'm going to ghost him.
8. Malekith vs. 9. Go10: You better don't miss Stone Edge against his mighty ScarfSnorlax.
Lowgock vs. Dice | dice will get handed teams with Optimal Builds in adv/dpp, shouldnt come down to bw but if it does he should be fine there Hot N Cold vs. DestinyUnknown | hnc is better than most people think...
Dice vs. Hot N Cold | hnc is better in adv, dice will bullshit him with gliscor in dpp and then get a miraculous matchup in bw to win. hnc can definitely take this though!
Masterclass vs. Leftiez | GRIND_PANTERA Boudouche vs. Conflict | conflict is good and can definitely take it but boudouche is my pick because youd be surprised at how good he is
Alf' vs. CrashingBoomBang | this is going to come down to the adv game, which will be amazing. cbb takes dpp, loic bw.
High Impulse vs. Ciele | even though ciele doesnt have entire skype calls ghosting him, he is still quite solid. sorry amir
M Dragon vs. Bloo | blue will use an m dragon stall team and come out on top in a 300 turn bout in adv. dpp will be a close affair but i think md has a very slight edge. theyre smart enough to not bring overly matchup-reliant teams in bw and i think blue will barely edge it out there... could go either way.
Eternal vs. Fakes | achieve it buddy
Malekith vs. Go10 | this dude gets way too little credit, hes really fckn strong

8. Malekith vs. 9. Go10
1. BKC vs. 16. Playoff Winner - doesnt matter who wins, bkc is looking rly good
2. Masterclass vs. 15. Leftiez - this is interesting, i pick sweep cause experience tho
3. Boudouche vs. 14. Conflict - underrated as hell
4. Alf' vs. 13. CrashingBoomBang - i hope he found someone good to ghost his bw games this time
5. High Impulse vs. 12. Ciele - he should go pretty far in this one
6. M Dragon vs. 11. Bloo - hyped as fuck match, i think m drag for adv and bloo takes the other 2 but its gonna be close
7. Eternal vs. 10. Fakes - dark horse of the tour imo, his dpp in particular is great
8. Malekith vs. 9. Go10 - i know from experience this guy goes hard in tour
i hope bkc wins but also cheering for sweep and fakes. gl hf
perhaps the last relevant tour...... surprised how inactive it was
i think it should be hosted every 8 months or once annually and if participation is as average as this tour then it should revert back to top 8
anyway...
1. BKC vs. 16. Playoff Winner probably the most well-rounded and unpredictable player (i hope the playoff winner is pokebitch or hotncold) 2. Masterclass vs. 15. Leftiez kenyan dial-up gonna let him down
3. Boudouche vs. 14. Conflict definitely the dark horse
4. Alf' vs. 13. CrashingBoomBang sorry alf', i forget which frenchman/belgian/portugeezer u are
5. High Impulse vs. 12. Ciele
6. M Dragon vs. 11. Bloo watch out for that moltres with 848 evs
7. Eternal vs. 10. Fakes eternal is probably a few months behind in dpp and fake will bring some good sets 8. Malekith vs. 9. Go10 i have a passionate hatred for go10's leftovers deo-s team so he can lose here
1. BKC vs. 8. Malekith i expect this to be the best match-up so far. dpp will be kev
2. Masterclass vs. 10. Fakes this will be very close and i predict a great DP showdown with fake coming out on top 14. Conflict vs. 11. Bloo tough run for the grinch but i expect conflict to advance on dp
13. CrashingBoomBang vs. 12. Ciele ciele sometimes struggles with aggressive spikers, but i expect him to triumph here
1. BKC vs. 12. Ciele i give ciele a win BW with BKC winning DP. not sure what team ciele is gonna bring to ADV so i'm going with BKC
10. Fakes vs. 14. Conflict think this is where conflict's adv knowledge will pay dividends as fake is unexperienced in that format

~Petition to give BKC's playoff spot to MarceloDK~
Want revolutionary Smogon Tour 16 Playoffs? Tired of BKC pulling off his Harry Potter Magic every game? Want Lucario banned from DPP OU?
Then SHOW YOUR SUPPORT and help MarceloDK receive his righteous spot in the Smogon Tour Playoffs!
~A-Class Trashtalking~
[16:26:52] <MarceloDK> how do bkc win dpp tours
[16:26:54] <MarceloDK> he's so bad
[16:27:01] <MarceloDK> he only sends Luke
[16:27:09] <MarceloDK> and start sweeping
[16:33:52] <MarceloDK> I'm saying he gonna lose on r1
[16:33:54] <MarceloDK> of playoffs
[16:34:00] <MarceloDK> cause he isn't creative
[16:34:12] <MarceloDK> futhermore easily counterable
~On-Spot Analyses of Participants~
[16:28:39] <MarceloDK> in adv
[16:28:44] <MarceloDK> he uses cm spam
[16:28:50] <MarceloDK> dpp he uses lucario
[16:29:00] <MarceloDK> and bw he uses breloom
[16:29:02] <MarceloDK> ...
[16:32:56] <MarceloDK> 1 - setup sr
[16:33:06] <MarceloDK> 2 - start hitting with mixnite
[16:33:11] <MarceloDK> 3 - sends luke and win
[16:33:13] <MarceloDK> ._.
~Enormous Metagame Knowledge~
[18:40:23] <MarceloDK> it's simple
[18:40:50] <MarceloDK> a metagame with SR, team preview and mighty hitters
[18:41:08] <MarceloDK> results in shitty lead wars and guessing
[18:41:30] <MarceloDK> that's why adv is much better than dpp
[18:41:48] <MarceloDK> there no abismal lead advantages
[18:42:00] <MarceloDK> and the metagame isn't so fast
[18:42:12] <MarceloDK> so you can scout opponent's team to make your decisions
[18:42:26] <MarceloDK> no guessing and no lead / anti-leads bullshit
~Never-Before-Seen Movesets~
[16:31:54] <MarceloDK> I only run breloom on finals
[16:31:59] <MarceloDK> and my team had 2 scarfs
[16:32:23] <MarceloDK> I used
[16:32:26] <MarceloDK> TR zong
[16:32:36] <MarceloDK> and hp electric swampert
[16:32:41] <MarceloDK> and other creative stuffs
[16:32:42] <MarceloDK> on tour
[16:32:43] <MarceloDK> o.o
~Sharing his Wisdom~
[17:48:32] <MarceloDK> Lucario is broken
[17:50:43] <MarceloDK> I swept everyone else with lucario
[17:51:10] <MarceloDK> rey, marshall.law, fakes...
[17:53:09] <MarceloDK> if there's team preview
[17:53:19] <MarceloDK> it would be ok to deal with luke
[18:13:35] <MarceloDK> having 3 good check/counters and still losing means its broken
[18:16:42] <MarceloDK> keep thinking it's not broken
[18:16:55] <MarceloDK> that's bad for you, not for me
[18:17:13] <MarceloDK> I got 7 pts cause I realized it yday ;)
~Winning Mentality~
[16:36:26] <MarceloDK> my point is
[16:36:36] <MarceloDK> he sucks at playoffs
[16:36:42] <MarceloDK> he may be good on tours
[16:36:48] <MarceloDK> getting pts with cheap things
[16:36:56] <MarceloDK> but he doesn't have playoffs mentallity
[16:37:03] <MarceloDK> If I reach playoffs
[16:37:08] <MarceloDK> I'll win tour
[16:37:09] <MarceloDK> oO
[16:37:10] <MarceloDK> .dancin
Convinced that MarceloDK should be the true winner of Smogon Tour XVI?

I have no idea how Boudouche is 3 seed and high impulse is 5 seed, I suck and have never lost to either. Leftiez making top 16 makes me feel like I need to quit pokemon. Masterclass and BKC rightfully deserve 1 and 2 seed. Hopefully Alf' magically learns gen 4 and wins this. I'm comfortable with my pick of Lowgock for 16, he'll beat Dice in adv and hgss, but BKC is too good and wants this too bad. Some of the lower seeds, eg, Bloo and Ciele are obviously top contenders to win this.
Sorry if anyone is offended. Wanted to give my honest opinion.
