Tournament NDPL V - Commencement Thread

looking for a new co, my old one just sent me this....
Good morning, Cuckdem. You seem to be mistaken.

You are not here to receive a custom avi, nor have you been called here by the individual you assume, although, you have indeed been called. You have all been called here, into a labyrinth of sounds and smells, misdirection and misfortune. A labyrinth with no exit, a maze with no prize. You don't even realize that you are trapped. Your lust for blood has driven you in endless circles, chasing the cries of lc mons in some unseen chamber, always seeming so near, yet somehow out of reach, but you will never find them. None of you will. This is where your story ends. And to you, my brave volunteer, who somehow found this tournament listing not intended for you, although there was a way out planned for you, I have a feeling that's not what you want. I have a feeling that you are right where you want to be. I am remaining as well. I am nearby. This subforum will not be remembered, and the memory of everything that started this can finally begin to fade away. As the agony of every tragedy should. And to you monsters trapped in the corridors, be still and give up your spirits. They don't belong to you. For most of you, I believe there is peace and perhaps more waiting for you after the smoke clears. Although, for one of you, the darkest pit of Hell has opened to swallow you whole, so don't keep the devil waiting, old friend. My daughter, if you can hear me, I knew you would return as well. It's in your nature to protect the innocent. I'm sorry that on that day, the day you were sold back and permabanned, no one was there to lift you up into their arms the way you lifted others into yours, and then, what became of you. I should have known you wouldn't be content to disappear, not my daughter. I couldn't save you then, so let me save you now. It's time to rest - for you, and for those you have carried in your arms.

This ends for all of us.

End communication.

@managers You HAVE to draft Saurav the great
Why you may ask?

Well for once Saurav is widely regarded the greatest NDUU player of all time. He is also known in the community as "NDUU Legend".
1725021830121.png
Source: Ndpl Article so it must be true

Saurav has the best NDUU record ever with 11-4. If anyone has more, it doesn't count and they probably got ghosted anyways.
Saurav is so influential the mons he built with turned into NDUU staples overnight. His ingame plays are so immaculate, the self proclaimed best player in the tier Isza also accepted that Saurav is better than him.

People often clown on NDUU saying it's an unserious tier. Saurav however made a fool of the haters by not only using Serious nature Mega Latias but also winning with it
1725022366067.png

Saurav's creative genius doesn't just end here. He is also credited for the revolutionary sets like telepathy rest Tapu Fini and Superpower Hydreigon among countless others. So I hope I don't have to make another post about manager selections
 
hella late but figured I'd do some DOU shoutouts given it doesn't seem like anyone else did + these mocks are concerning me

starter level:

bagel- prob will be focused on scl but generally elite dou player who has put up great records in nddou in the past, didn't play much in ndpl last year but that was before he really sunk time into the tier I think. can't really go wrong here

xqiht- another top tier dou player that signed up for this tour, has put up great results in this tier when he's played it this year (won some indiv icr which one)

sir jelloton- honestly the goat at nddou specifically, snubbed in this tour last year but farmed the farm league and definitely needs to be starting here. also won nddou's ladder tour and did decently in ndwc iirc

voltix- 7-1 ndwc, another player who's been consistently at the top of the format. I'd honestly rate his metagame knowledge the highest on this list given his attention to the meta throughout the tier's history

laptops: excellent derby record (6-2 playing nddou). Has been just really good when they've played the tier; has a tendency to spam broken stuff over and over which is honestly not that bad a strategy in this tier

chris32156- great derby record (5-2 playing nddou) and is really into this tier rn. will put up a good record and has a much better affinity for the tier compared to last year

akaru- idt he's played the tier since last year but he went 6-3 or smth with no experience last year and he will do well again. it's akaru and it's like his destiny to be starting in like every side pl on the website

could start/should def at least be sub
these players could probably start with their recent performances but have a bit less teamtour experience

logice- excellent nd results recently (6-3 in derby iirc). Hasn’t been around for super long but a newer player that I think is on the rise in the community. Pls draft

schister- another good derby performance (5-2). a bit less experienced than the above players but understands the tier and could do well if given the chance. could also be a good teambuilder for some of the above players who have less recent games in the format

oh the guilt- good derby record, has been putting up good records across dou recently and could def compete with the above players

terekusai- came somewhat? out of nowhere to finish 2nd in the most recent individual tour. not super familiar with them but clearly has a good grasp for the current metagame

sub/support
there's a bunch of qualified players here but i'll do my best to not forget anyone, apologies in advance if I do tho

smudge- tier leader who's always paying close attention to the metagame. good pick for someone with a bit less up to date metagame knowledge

iceberg77- good player who had a poor derby run (mostly out of tilt I think) but subbed last year and should probably do so again this year. consistently a name to watch out for in this format

ninjasnapple- good all around doubles player who helped me a lot last year. big personal vouch here, just a fun guy to have around and an excellent supporter

astronationshoe- former ladder hero and one of the most active players of the format (for a while at least, not sure if he still ladders as much) did well in ndfl last year (4-2)

chainlessjoe- nddou main who performed well in derby and deserves a shot here

glimmer- one of the more notable teambuilders for nddou throughout the tier's history. I think built for tyo ? last year but icr

sealife- decent performance in derby (4-4), newer player but has played well

penter- good ndfl last year (3-1) and someone who's also played the tier for a while to decent success

testbots- good teambuilder who put up a decent record in derby (3-2)

eatfoods- don't know too much about them but have heard great things :blobthumbsup:

hopefully this can give managers a decent idea of who to look for if they're less familiar with DOU, sry for being late but I honestly forgot this tour was a thing my b

* Forgot about Zee who's definitely a must pick up but y'all should know that already.
* Shoe has yet to have a single bad performance in any nd tour he's played in if he starts he'll go even at worst.
Managers pick up some support please for your players. There are a lot of very strong players in this pool with not a very strong handle on the metagame and support could seriously be the difference between x-2 and 2-x.
