Tournament Rules
  • General tournament rules and regulations are in effect and can be found here.​
  • This is a standard Gen 7 OU Tournament.​
  • This tournament will be double elimination, all rounds will be Bo3. You may switch teams in between battles of the same set.​
  • Replays are now mandatory!
  • Matches are to be played on smogtours, unless both parties agree to play on Pokemon Showdown! main server.​
  • Do not make baseless activity posts -- get in contact with your opponent and report missed times / scheduling issues only. Activity calls will be made by myself, potentially with neutral assistance from a RoA Forum Moderator or Tournament Director. Coinflips will be done publicly on PS!
  • Do not cheat. Cheating will result in a disqualification. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary. Cheating includes, but is not limited to:
    • Signing up with more than one account
    • Ghosting or being ghosted by another player
    • Manipulating match outcomes
  • Do not harass or insult your opponents. I reserve the right to disqualify anyone breaking this rule. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary.
This is just a small snippet of the full rules, which one can find here!
  • Identity: Pretending to be another player in relation to a tournament battle is strictly prohibited. Do not try to impersonate or play as another player. You may request that your opponent log on to their main account to confirm that they are who they claim they are, and they must comply.
  • Scouting: Going through your opponents replays of tournament and ladder games is entirely allowed, as long as a game is public there is nothing preventing you from watching it. Abusing powers granted to you by being staff on Smogon or PS! to gain access to information a normal user wouldn't have access to is strictly forbidden. Divulging private information about someone's planned team to their opponent is never allowed, and will be heavily sanctioned. Requesting that such information be divulged is also grounds for punishment. Keep your scouting to publicly available information and you'll be fine.
  • Timer Clause: As for taking long between moves, if your opponent asks you to hurry up, please oblige. If you are doing a damage calc for a key turn that is one thing, but prolonging every move is suspicious and annoying. Don't do it. Furthermore, Battle Timeout is a rule for a reason. If you run out of time, you lose, simple as that. It does not matter what your opponent says. Do not battle if you think you will have to leave mid battle, and instead reschedule for a better time.

A few months ago, I told myself I was gonna win this Winter Seasonal. I really believed I could do it, so I put in the time and effort to make it happen.
And today… it paid off. I did it. I won exactly what I set out to win.

Big shoutout to some legends who helped me along the way:

Abele01 – Helped me out big time in the early prep stages and was always cheering me on. Appreciate the trust, bro!


c0mp – Always there when I needed him testing, tips, whatever. Dude believed in me the whole way. You’re the real MVP.


Chiharu – Yeah, you're still super annoying but credit where it’s due you helped with prep and came in clutch during the finals. Respect, bro.


noname – My little prodigy. Helped a ton in the finals. One of the absolute geniuses of this gen. Come back soon, the man with no name

And of course, congrats to CM Reuniclus for an exceptional run. I knew we were gonna face each other again in the end. Hope to see you in more tours soon maybe even as teammates this time, since we never have a clean series LOL.
