Merse agar koi 1v1 jeet gaya to main HPL mein ₹1000 ka prize pool rakhunga.

Bore hora hu isliye kuch bhi harkate kara hu lol
 
1v1 pr ( only Indian players ) :-

1) TGK - Best Indian player in the sv scene rn, cooked 1v1pl coming at a very low pick, can self build as well.
2) Kala Chashmah- Solid clicker, coming off a great momentum from pl and can self build as well.
3) Mentality - Best indian builder in the sv scene rn, strong fundamentals and his clicking skills will only improve.
4) Mcthelegit - Very strong 1v1 indivs record, didn't have a great pl, might have issues with building but not a long stretch to say he's one of the best Indian clickers ever.
5) Recti- Decent indivs record, had a strong ogpl this yr, not coming off a great pl in regard to sv but one of the best Indian builders around and can adapt crazy good to the opponent clicks.
6) TGO - prolly the best Indian sm player and the ladder hero of sv 1v1, will be a great early pick for the 1v1 slot.
7) Liimpy- The fact that he hasn't even touched 1v1 since last hpl and still top 7 is a great testimony to his skills as a clicker, will be worth every penny as a manager.
8) Podraa- Great clicker, if he had better teams for pl he would've easily went x-0 or x-1 potentially.
9) Tricknology - Again a very good clicker, and specifically the goat at ss.
10) Nakoruru - Can self build, impressive on ladder and having a great 1v1 seasonal run rn.

Only doing prs for the top 10 rn, sorry if you were missed out here feel free to criticize me for the same, managers take this with a pinch of salt since this is just my opinion and I might be wrong on some points.

Ek final ranking for 1v1 who are willing to play from videsh

Names all together:- Driplegend, Exguardian, Neomon, UwU1v1, Akeras, Indi01, Fancy1, Bomb21XD, Anonymous1634, Stravench.

Saare videshi in list:-

#1
They prefer 6v6 but can be slotted into 1v1 as well. They're ranked first not only because of their 1v1 skills but also because they’re a strong 6v6 player and recently became a RUPL winner. They're also a past WCOP champion. Dumbass keeps asking me if I want to play on his team but never drafts me in 1v1PL, lmao. Consistent performance will definitely be seen from their side.
Will he be drafted this year?

#2
Fancy is probably the strongest Bo5 1v1 player right now and will 100% go positive. Went 4-0 last year and is currently 5-3 in 1v1PL (finals going on).

#3
Here comes Indi01, the best SV7 1v1 player of the year. Honestly, Indi and Fancy both deserve the #2 spot. He’s 7-1 and playing in the finals right now—no luck, pure skill. Bro, you got this!! Just one more win to victory. This guy will definitely go positive as well.

#4
Another 5-3 player with enormous knowledge of the meta, and went positive in probably all tours. He won 1v1WC last year with a dominant performance. Another strong pick, I’d say.

#5
He’s been learning Hindi these days and can understand some phrases. He was drafted last year too, but either he was busy or the managers didn’t let him play. He’s been playing 1v1 for quite a while and has a lot of experience—like an old guy, lol. Super active this year and self-sufficient.

#6
They went 5-2, just like me, and are amazing. Youngblood and self-sufficient as usual. I’m not sure how active they were last year or how they performed in circuit tours, but just based on how well they did in PL this year, they could be a solid pick.
#7
Youngblood, self-sufficient, and one of my teammates in this year’s 1v1PL. Had some tough and close losses, BUT didn’t stop there—qualified for LT Cycle 1 and is definitely willing to play HPL and show off their skills. Would be a good 3k pick, imo.

#8
Another old user who’s been playing 1v1 for quite a while. Went positive this year and managed their team so well in 1v1PL that I think they went undefeated in the regular season? I just doubt if they’ll build or not. Also, I’m seeing that they’re a 6v6 player and could be a good pick for that too.

#9
They were insanely busy during this year’s 1v1PL, but when they finally played in week 7, they won—lmao. Played UMBD last year and I think went positive.

#10
Poison lover, but they probably stopped using 3 Poison-types in a single team now due to the low number of Poison-types in SV. Fun guy to chat with and definitely worth giving a chance to play. Qualified last year with Mono Poison in LT Cycle 1 as the #1, btw.

At the end, no one in this list is overrated or included just because I know them or to avoid them getting mad at me. Everyone is doing so well this year that I genuinely have nothing negative to say.
The important thing is that all managers will likely prioritize Indians first, so I’d say you can pick these players toward the end—probably for 3k. The best thing this year is that, with the auction format, every team can pick two 1v1ers, and both can be 3k picks who will go positive for sure—kek.

Agle saal try karunga ki mujhe ye 1v1 tier na khelna pade, smh... 6v6 ko mera salaam
NTG Cuz IDK, you’re the only one left for PRs.


Bye bye :monke:

Hello everyone and welcome to the official HPL 1v1 PRs, hosted by NTG Cuz IDK and Mentality.

INDIAN SLOTS


The Best Starters
MC The Legit continues to prove himself as one of the best Indian SV mainers. His debut was him reaching the finals of 1v1 Masters, and nearly defeating the tier's best player. After a great performance in circuit, reaching semifinals, and going 3-1 in WC1v1, he showed his versatility in the Old Gens Premier League before going a solid 3-2 in sv in 1V1 PL.
Mc's biggest weakness as a player is that he isnt much of a builder - Drafting him with someone like Mentality or Stravench probably solidifies him as the strongest 1v1 slot in the tour.
TGK is a massive surprise: A newcomer who has shown his face around the community often, but proved himself with an incredible 6-2, one of the best players in his pool, and one of the best players on a playoffs team. Further, he is entirely self-sufficient!
A great pick up for any manager, and the player with the most momentum by far.
Great starters with some factors that put them below the above
Recti is back! Recti is a mainstay of the HPL 1v1 pool, all the way from his days as Arvinraj. Now with many years and more bo5s under his belt, his adaptive, up-in-your-face style of 1v1 will serve as an interesting presence in the pool.


Strongest builder here, winner of TLT and manager of the 1v1 WC squadron.

Mentality has a strong resume for someone with a career of barely an year. good activity and building potential makes him a really good buy.
The biggest issue with him making him A+ is that he has not got a lot of wins in sv 1v1 teamtours with his last win being vs recti last HPL.
Out of everyone on this list, he is the best builder and sub, drafting him with a good(or even decent) clicker like mctl and fancy1 who might have great chemistry with him is an idea which can definitely work. However he can definitely run a solo starter slot like last year, where he won uphill battles in the first tour he ever played.
Strong picks for starters would still be good as subs/backups
NTG has been freed from the shackles of the prison known as "JEE Prep" and with the college wifi buff is ready to show their strenghts in the tier. While the majority of their recent 1v1 experience has been in old gens, their fundamentals are solid, and they are definetly not unfamiliar with SV, and are a solid buy as the solo 1v1 slot, or perhaps a secondary 1v1 slot if you have the budget.
PK has more experience in 1v1 than anyone else on the list. These years of experience culminate in someone with very strong fundamentals. Despite his time away from SV, he is a great buy.
The middle tier, they have flaws that give them less value as starters.
He can click. He will click. He will continue to click. Perhaps, he will continue to click until the heat death of the universe. Unfortunately, he does not build much. Probably best as a sub, because when he has teams, he does really well. His value is hightened greatly by the fact you can keep him as the court musician (seriously, he's a great singer) and him keeping the chat active no matter what. Get him as a sub, but as a starter it might be rocky.
TGO is good, he's in the finals of 1v1 PL as a starter, but thats in SM. While he has always been a strong presence on the ladder, his presence in SV teamtours has been minimal. If anything, this is his chance to prove himself in the tier.
Tricknolog urf Strict Sceptile has been rising rapidly in the indian 1v1 community, with an incredibly performance in SS cup. Still, he is unproven, and may not be able to build for himself.
While Ron has some good performances in 1v1 indivs, he can't build for himself and is probably better utilised in another tier anyways
Nakoruru had a good LT run an year ago and is currently doing well in the 1v1 ssnl, but he can be inconsistent in communication and his building leaves much to be desired.
I would not reccomend drafting them rn
Both are new, young, very unproven players. Maybe give them an year to develop and draft them next year.

FOREIGN SLOTS

DISCLAIMER: this list is made with foreign quota in mind, if this list and the Hindi speaker list was taken in a vacuum this list would be better in quality on paper

Probably top 5 1v1 players after the wonderful performance in PL. indi is generally motivated, self sufficient and can consistently win games off better clicking.
Stravench is a common face in the hindi community, hes learning hindi for the tour even!!
What makes him so good is that despite his flaws as a clicker he keeps your cord alive, is motivated in general, and if drafted as the 1v1 builder for a good clicker like mcthelegit or tgk, your 1v1 slot will ascend
neomon's strongest point in this tour is that hes flexible in 6v6 as well while being self sufficient in 1v1. he can win games and he has shown this reaching playoffs for all the PLs with SV in them
Driplegend is a known face on smogon specifically known for once being 1v1 TL and loving UMs. He can slot into 6v6 or 1v1 and his flexibility and self sufficiency makes him pretty good of a player. however a question arises that if he might be available/motivated/active or not? chances look kinda low.
Fancy is a strong 1v1 player with good building and clicking skills, has tendency to maintain good activity and can support your hindi slot as well, he has also been really good for the last 2 PLs and WCs where he went semis --> finals (PL8-9) and finals-->semis (WC7-8). Very viable, self-sufficient buy.
UwU1v1 this PL and WC, has shown that they can win games. theres nothing much to say but they are self sufficient and can start the tour. but only if you are willing give your foreign slot to them!! OwO
Akeras is good but not the best 1v1 player, however they have the most amount of recent teamtour experience with PL(finals) UMPL(winning team) and WC(winning team). they will be a good buy but team chemistry might be kind of a question mark in this situation
While having a chip and a lot of experience under their belt, Bern has not been doing great in recent tours. While they are a self-sufficient slot who will net at least few wins, their flexibility into other slots is low. It is important to mention, that through hosting ISTT and being a figure in many communities in general, Bern has a lot of rapport with indian players.
Happysh burst onto the scene last LT with a great performance and did well in PL and WC since, showing a decent performance in the current PL. Their issues however, come in their inconsistency as a player, especially with the quirky mons they sometimes use.
Anonymous is a new face in the community but i am sure they will learn once they take part in more teams, as of now you can draft them as a sub because they still have experience playing sv in PL
bomb is a really good clicker with a flaw of using non-meta mons, even with this they tend to win games and have went far in a lot of tours(including tlt finals). However, their tendency to use off-meta mons can often cause them to falter in important situations: especially in teamtours.
