No other team is quite so full of people that I enjoy being around and teaming with as Canada. Genuinely, Teh GirlsSeeGhosts Kristyl, I'm so glad this final has a bunch of Cunos in it and I'm thrilled that both our teams made underdog runs against ridiculous odds to get here. I've been cheering for y'all the whole way up here, and if it wasn't my team vs yours I'd be rooting for you against any other team.

That said... this will be the biggest embarrassment for Canada since Trudeau's pictures leaked. Better luck next year <3
 
I vote to eliminate Canada, and the reason is that Canada is annoying to me. Why? Because Canada is that: an annoying region that forces you to play unpleasantly unlucky games. I vote to eliminate Canada not because I lose to Canada but because it takes them too much luck to win against me. I'm tired of being forced to face the 1 blizzard freeze + the 4 full paralysis turns to win one game. Canada may be an unbalanced region that gives an excessive advantage to the players, and it is annoying for the opponents, either because most of the time its results depend on RNG or because it generally forces you to win unrealistically unlucky games.

Not going to make a huge shoutout post, but I just want to say that only shortly before COVID I was the only Canadian playing RBY on a regular basis. Fast forward to now, and 4 of you have shown up in the interim and have become legitimate contenders in RBY who can beat anyone. Of course Texas has been here longer than me and is quietly one of the most consistent old gen players on this site (real ones remember him being Canada’s hero in 2018 WCoP). Crazy how quickly you all have mastered this tier!

All 6 of us starters delivered positive records and slayed some of the all time greats. TPM nabbed us a win and started in the semis when needed as well. A total team effort here from a group who really deserve this. Hope we can all run this back in the future, but for now you can all go back to fearing my icelaxes and alakazams.

Thanks to Nicole for helping out as well, and Amaranth for the smooth hosting as always.
 
is doing shoutouts as a not manager and not tournament decider socially acceptable? idk

Genesis7 King Billu THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GIVING ME A SHOT!!!! you two are amazing players and it was awesome watching u two pop off. hope to team w u again next year :salute:

GirlsSeeGhosts i knew you were the real deal even before rbypl 5 and you immediately proved me right with that incredible record. who'd have thought that the next tour we'd team up in would be the one we win? and its clear as day how much you've improved since rbypl, if you keep this up you might be an spl contender one day????? love u goat

Kristyl ANOTHER CUNO!!!! glad to see you get a chance to prove yourself in ou instead of dumbass unserious uu and thank you so much for clutching finals up for us!!!! you are a phenomenal player and i really hope you stick with rby, your presence is greatly appreciated.

Texas Cloverleaf what a great de-rusting tournament for you! im sorry if for being too harsh sometimes with criticism post-game, you still 100% earned all your wins boss. don't ever forget that. gl in invitational playins, hopefully we can both make it!!

TPM honestly you had no obligation to help at all as a sub but you put in so much work (and even won a game!!!) your motivation for the game is super inspirational. thanks so much for all the help in prep (even if you keep suggesting dogshit backzam)

jackuzzler Fc susciety honestly u guys did literally nothing all tour LOL but still i'm glad that you were there to cheerlead for us during the important matches. enjoy the custom!

and also super duper special thanks to nicole7735 for helping us with prep in finals. you're super fucking good at the game and your prep was incredibly helpful. this win would not have been possible without you. keep shining <3
(not tagging people in rous bc i'd be mad tight if i got pinged in a shoutouts post immediately after losing)

Sabelette i've already soapboxed to you multiple times about it in less-sober states but thank you so much for everything. you're one of the coolest ppl i've ever met period and i really admire you not only as a player, but as a person. if we didn't meet i probably wouldn't be playing mons anymore LOL

i would have been rooting for you if, you know, i wasn't ur opponent but u and ur team had a phenomenal run and it was clear how much effort u put into it. sorry for the disappointing finish especially w the hax

Tree69420 ik u don't really consider ppl you know through mons as friends but like, i consider you as my friend. i hope that means something to you

Melbelle sorry i'm kind of a shitty friend sometimes. i think you're a wonderful person and i'm happy to have u in my life. its kind of crazy that we happened to meet each other in two completely different communities too (we should play super auto pets again sometime!)

nicole7735 thank you so much for keeping it real and giving me no-bs responses to how i performed in-game. i have like, the worst inferiority complex of all time so its really nice to have someone i trust to keep it a buck fifty. it probably wasn't a big deal at all for u but it meant a lot to me

Maris Bonibell u are one of the funniest ppl i know and your meteoric rise was amazing to witness. you absolutely have that dog in you. looking forward to more maris bonibell dubs in the future.

Wanted in 49 States you have gotten so much better at the game since rbypl its actually crazy. and idk why but your sense of humour just clicks for me u never fail to make me laugh (IN REAL LIFE!!!)

TG2513 likewise as above for improvement. thank u so much for all the Among us Wednesday appearances. it wouldnt be the same without you <3

hammer798 who'd have though that getting revived in an rby nu open due to bad hosting would lead u here? rby will take control of the nu council any day now...

Shellnuts glad to still have u around in the cunos server bestie. we GOTTA do a summoning salt move night sometime

ButtGallon yeah sorry i'm a flaky motherfucker but i still want to do that soullocke if ur down

gastlies dumbass unserious gastlies......... it sucks to hear that ur taking a break but i'd rather you take it easy than keep doing something that you don't enjoy

kjdaas honestly i have not known u for very long but from the interactions we have had you seem like a Certified Cool Person(tm.) cool enough that i can get over the Being Dutch part anyways /j

juoean miss u bestie. hope ur living your best life

and also thanks to all my not-rby friends (sorry phoopes i'm putting you here too,) BIG ASHLEY az Albatross grape tylenol olivia phoopes BP and that one banned user i'm not allowed to mention (real ones know.) you're all super cool and funny ppl and a lot of my sense of humour has come from just hanging out with u all. xoxo

if i excluded anyone from this list its not bc i hate you but i just dont talk to you enough on a regular basis. if i individually shouted out everyone whom i've had a good interaction with i think i'd lose my mind. but that doesn't mean i don't think you're cool people. far from it! please be my friend

the goat Teh has said everything I wanted to say to individuals in his shoutout post, so I'll keep mine brief-ish.

TY to Team Canada for being great competitors and pulling together an incredible run this year. After playing for the team last year a few months after learning RBY, and us missing playoffs then, all I really wanted this season was to make it to quarters, but you all knocked it out of the park. It's been an honor and a pleasure to team with you all, you all had some incredible moments and let's say it some incredible luck (Mandate of Heaven)

GGs to our opponents, ROUS has many great players and supports I'm glad to call my friends, it's unfortunate it came down to these two teams so some heartbreak was inevitable. You all also had an amazing run defeating the German superteam, a very deserved finals spot, I hope the rats get their W next year. GGs to the Italian and USNE teams too, fighting Goliaths like you was a great experience and it's always a pleasure to play some of the most stacked teams in the world.

For me, this is my first Smogon tour win, as well as my first Custom Avatar, which was originally the reason for this past year-and-a-half of RBY grind. I couldn't have asked for a better tour to reach that goal, and I'm looking forward to playing a whole lot more of the best/worst gen and to branch out to other generations as well. I don't think the victory has completely sink in yet, check in with me tomorrow I'll be freaking out lol

Have an awesome summer everyone, and keep playing RBY

Nice stuff! For a team to win this torunament or just reach the finals, they need at least 4 elite players and 2 who won't drop the ball in the crunch time. Most likely seasoned multi-gen players. It won't happen out of the blue but at the same time it's possible, so this is good news for our playerbase and those who are about to join. Oh, we're all curious to see the Articuno avatar I guess.
 
Before I start with my shoutouts, Thank you to everyone who was apart of this incredible team we had this year. I am glad we got to prove that we are a team filled with very competent RBY players who supported each other the whole way through this beautiful journey to the chip. GGs to our opponents ROUS who had a generational run aswell beating some very big name teams, you guys deserved it just as much as we did. Thanks for making it such An amazing finals.

Shoutouts:

Genesis7 - Man you are such an amazing player Canada's best, I couldn't have managed without you, it's always a pleasure teaming / captaining with you, I'm so happy we got it done as we came up just short of playoffs last year. We had a lot of new additions to the team this year and we really cooked up such a nice roster, I'm pretty sure nobody had it in their minds that Canada would win. I hope we can manage sometime soon again maybe RBYPL if they ALLOW me to manage :) please

GirlsSeeGhosts - I'm so glad I could manage this team you are such a key part in our success throughout this tour. You had an amazing tour and helped out so much every week, keep it up and you will keep on improving RBY as the days go. We finally got that custom it's a first for both of us.

Kristyl - What a huge clutch moment you had for us in the finals, I am so glad that we got to start you this season as many people know (or if they didn't they should now) you are a really good player. You really brought so much team energy for us always being positive in the discord. Before the season, I didn't know much about you besides from seeing you play in some rby tours, where you played well but got the short end of the stick a couple times. Sceptross really vouched for you as an amazing player and someone who is really good in team environments and we knew we had to start you. Thank you for having an amazing season.

Teh - The goat really almost went 6-0 like MJ. I had so much fun teaming with you and I'm so glad you got to start for the first time as very well deserved. You are such a good player and you have crazy hot takes for the meta with your crazy teams lmao. The vibes are always fun with you, we had such an amazing season until next time.

Texas Cloverleaf - What a return to RBY you had. Before the season G7 convinced me that you are a really good old Gen player and we stuck with it and wow I am impressed. You had some of the best games all tour and we couldn't have got this dub without you. Thank you for signing up and I hope we can team up again. PS - downtown linkup when????

TPM - I am so glad I asked you to signup after last year, I really liked what you brought to a team. I am also really happy we got to play you and I subbed out so that you got a chance to play and show out for us. You told me you were washed but in reality, you really came through for us and helped in so many ways. Thanks for the vibes.

Fc - You are a legend, I love how I have to ask you to join every year seeing as you dislike RBY but we can't have a WC team without you. You were there since the start and even though you didn't want to play, you were there when we needed you. Hope we can team up again soon in Ubers, it's always amazing having you on the same team regardless of tier.

susciety - Words can't describe how much we needed you on the team, the true goat himself. This Canadian aura that you have that is needed on every Canadian team is unmatched. thanks for always showing support and being a chill dude we will definitely team up again.

jackuzzler - Thank you for supporting us throughout the entire tour. I hope you got to learn and pickup RBY more so than you did before , I also hope you had fun in the discord. most importantly congrats on your free custom :))

@mashingsapphire - for the team moral support and vibes that you brought to our discord. Was fun having you around.

Special shoutouts to nicole7735 - who went above and beyond with the finals prep. You really should know you are an amazing player who had a well deserved SPL spot , and I told you this before but you also helped me personally with just how you would analyze and prep every small detail and you really helped out a lot of our slots so thank you for that. Hope we can team up in a tour soon.

Side-note - the vibes for this tour were immaculate. It just felt like such an amazing tour even before winning it, just because of everyone in our discord who made this just an amazing team environment for me. I hope everyone had as much fun as I did this tour, I couldn't have asked for another group to win this with. Hopefully we can all come back again for next year !!

Shoutout to all the people in the RBY community who I have interacted with, this community is really amazing and I'm so glad that I could be apart of this.

Thank you to Amaranth for hosting such an amazing tour, until next time.

TEAM CANADA REALLY GOT IT DONE HELL YEAH
