Nothing worse than being snaked by your friends and your old team. Really sucks knowing where people's real priorities are after 2 years.


Sorry Tobes and Kingler12345
I feel more sorry about the fact that you decided to group Tobes and Kingler with yourself than the fact that you went undrafted. It sucks to go undrafted when you actually pour down some effort into the game and legitimately enjoy playing it, but why the hell are you playing the victim in the commencement thread when the last time you touched this game was in like 2014? Oh, excuse me, you actually played and purposely threw a game earlier this year in an official tournament. Good stuff! I don't get why you feel so entitled to the Raiders just because you attempted to ride TDK's back to a free trophy two years in a row. If you wanted to be a part of the team so badly then why didn't you sign up to manage it?

For what it's worth, I've opposed adding you to our team chat on my own and TDK/FLCL/anyone from the old Raiders who landed up on the team really have nothing to do with it, so don't go around slinging my team's name like you actually got ""snaked""

hey where are the dou power rankings

ah fuck it i'll just make my own. behold my spl 9 dou power rankings. note that these are based on my expert knowledgeable guessing and my 5am brain because i haven't played a single game of dou in 6 months nor do i have an iota of a goddamn clue who is even good anymore.

pearl if you're reading this please don't panic, it'll be ok. just tell yourself it will be okay until it isn't okay anymore. i can't lose more than four games by midseason anyways so it isn't like your whole season is in the shitbin.


1) laga

10,000 volt self-thunderbolt into lightningrod, the myth, the legend. he never goes away. i'm pretty sure he didn't get drafted but that's not going to stop him. he will for sure be the best dou player this year. one of these years we're gonna get it right.


2) demantoid

when you have a name like demantoid it probably means you aren't fucking around. i'm not sure what he does best or how good he is but i'm sure he's plenty good or else the sharks wouldn't have drafted him. after all, the sharks expertly planned to drop 15k on a 4-5 washed up vgcer last year before shake unzipped his pants and showed them a thing or two about really bad drafting. if demantoid doesnt finish above .500 it'll be a pretty big shocker though.


3) marilli

marilli doesnt think hes good but dont let that fool you, hes actually good. he sometimes says he sucks and then goes off and wins 4 games in a row. you know he's about to unleash unholy fury when he posts in team chat about taking a hiatus because of suck, which translates to him realizing the next morning "beneath the veil of my shampoo i have received a vision during this early morning shower that i must return and quit being a sad sack of shit" and then comes back to chat later that day as if nothing ever happened. everyone knows the drill so they just pretend it didn't happen.


4) majorbowman

he is a good player but there is not a single person out there who is more vulnerable to getting mazar'd and watching a win get stolen h4h4h4. he should probably be over .500 if he keeps his head out of the clouds for long enough to play decent pokemon.


5) croven

sounds like a dou player who isnt bad so im putting him at number 5. i remember i thought he was pretty good at one point. i dont know much more, so hes right here at 5 for ya.


6) biosci + tman

if anyone can get biosci to stop building 9 different versions of the same team, it's tman. there won't be a 10th version because biobrr sucks too much to win more than 3 games but he'll probably win exactly 3. hope the cryonicles are ready for him.


7) miltankmilk

i remember someone told me miltankmilk was an entitled asshole who thought he was the tits but it turns out after a conversation with him that he's a fine dude. i dont know how good he is but he seems like hes ok?? probably better than biosci but i forgot who else even got drafted and i'm too lazy to move him up so he's staying right here at 7th.


8) stax

he just withdrew from npa as he's too busy so he's probably gonna run outta time! sucks to be stax. i wish he had more time.


9) embcpt

we get it you're from portugal!! and you've also never played a spl match before, good luck kid. hope your opponents don't catch on to you using mudsdale all 9 weeks.


10) jhon

who the fuck has a username that's not only misspelled but also isn't their real name?? this guy, apparently

man....im so glad we did the auction 16 years before the first week...woujldn't want to go into SPL without having first had a lifetime to get to know the major facts about my teammtes such as that poek likes anime, or that ict is a war criminal irl, both traits that wouldnt be hard to discern in under literally 14 minutes of conversation.

It happens when people actually refuse to play

How easy is judging when you don't know or even bother to ask why ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
