There will be 8 teams for this tournament.
When signing up, YOU MUST SIGN UP WITH AN ASSISTANT MANAGER and state who they are. ONLY ONE OF THE TWO MANAGERS will be able to purchase themselves for 15k credits prior to the draft if they wish to do so.

Please sign up using the following format:

Managers will be chosen based on experience in SM tournaments, their level of involvement in the community and knowledge of the playerbase, their general competence, and prowess in managing in other high level tournaments in other tiers. If you do sign up, it would be worth explaining why you and your assistant manager would be good picks with relation to the above criteria.

Manager: Oathkeeper
Assistant Manager: xXcrossbowXx
Team Name: Nihilistic Noiverns

I have plenty of managerial experience. This includes managing NUPL several times (my most recent team made it to the finals), RUPL a few times, ORAS PL with MrAldo a few times among the highlights. My SM experience is great as well. I spent all my time in PU during the SM era and played ZU on the side. I also have good SM NU and RU experience as well under my belt. My co-manager is currently managing Team Liquidation for RUGL and I'm one of his players and he's doing a phenomenal job at it so far given that we're 2-0-2 so far through 4 weeks. Putting our minds together will lead to success!
 
Manager: Joya
Assistant Manager: Skyrio
Team Name: Phantom Knights

We both have a good knowledge of the SM metagame, following the OU tier since it was CG and playing it on several tournaments, including Smogon Masters top cut, PTPL and OUPL, although we also have a bit of experience in SM RU and SM NU. Outside of SM, we have also played team tournaments of a higher level such as WcoP or SPL and our managing experience is quite extensive, I have managed several team tournaments, winning PTPL recently, while Skyrio is one of the greatest managers in french community, winning the last two editions of FCL and managing Team France on RCoP. We have already managed together two times, EPL and ORASPL, making semifinals in the latter.

Both myself and gondra have a lot of managerial experience, I managed a lot of lower tier PLs to good results as well as winning DPL as a manager earlier this year, my co-manager is an official tournament winning manager (SSD IV). We have a good knowledge of the playerbase and are both very involved with the tiers showcased in this tournament, we both have experience playing SM in SPL on different occasions, I'm also a part of the SM OU oldgen council if that is to be taken into consideration.
