Gm, record could've been better but I'll take a 5-2!
Week 1 vs PandaDoux
[W] Steel VS Fairy
Under the guidance of steel's strongest soldier (thanks royal) I was tempted to bring it week 1, and wow it payed off. Pretty standard everywhere since it was week 1 and I didn't want to use something crazy, but the MU ended up being as good as the team!
Week 2 vs Dunes
[W] Dragon vs Water
We couldn't really tell much useful from the scout here- and when that happens what else can you do but use Dragon! The only slightly unique set here is CM Latios, which ended up putting in great work even if the matchup was favoured anyway.
Week 3 vs SBAP
[L] Water vs Dark
At this point in time I was high on low ladder manaphy, I will confess. This was not the opponent to try this against as I was badly punished by a tough matchup and I ended up playing badly from nerves (I got promoted just after so it didn't last long). Anyway, the build itself I took more feedback on than before, Esword suggested boots manaphy + alo to keep it and pert healthy which worked great in testing so I went with it. Pex, SD samurott and Scarf greninja all felt like fairly standard picks to round out the team.
Week 4 I was dropped because idk but I lost so fairs
Week 5 vs Pr1nce0fAllSaiyans
[W] Ground vs Ground
This was the real shitty week where I didn't have time time to prep, so I had a quick look at my builder a few minutes before and decided to use a ground I topped ladder with ages ago. Im pretty happy with the team comp, AV mamo always takes a specs lati draco meteor and KOs back, and is nice for greninja's guessing games. But that never happened, we loaded a mirror. I think at that point I just played it quite well, but an enjoyable one nonetheless.
Week 6 vs Manan999
[W] Psychic vs Flying
My scout was not quite weak enough to dark at this point so I went with Neko's really fun plan to use SCREAM tail!! Royal did build a perfectly good psychic team but it just wasn't right without SCREAM tail, so I made a few edits (Neko also kept me away from running trick on scream to meme vs knock) and loved the team. I played the game itself well enough to win I think despite losing arguably the best mon in the matchup, had a lot of fun that week.
Week 7 vs seth [W] Fighting vs Dark
The mental build up to this was crazy lol, I knew seth would load some kind of dark since he can pilot whatever and my scout was finally amazingly weak to it, so I gambled and it worked! Scarf sneas, shifu>keldeo was a bit weird to me at first since I always go keldeo and scrafty was an awesome pointer from Jack. Not much else to say, I didn't play badly enough to throw it so whatever.
Semis vs ySagaz_
[L] Dark vs Ghost
Unfortunately this was my worst week in terms of prep and it came in semis. Huge thanks to
adjustments for letting me steal your boots dark, and that was the only good that really came out of this week for me. I wasn't really comfortable with dark, didn't enjoy it in tests but I brought it anyway (this is of no discredit to the team, it is amazing when I'm not piloting) and lost. This was more a problem with them being Scarf flutter mane and I skipped turn 1 which involved the only calc I really needed to pick up on. Need to play perfectly to win these, and I didn't sadly.
Huge thank you to everyone on the team, especially
RoyalReloaded jackuzzler and even
feen for drafting me and having faith in me to win. Every golett was amazing (adjustments you were basically one of us so thank you aswell for being amazing support <3) and I had a lot of fun this tour, hope to see you all again in the future!
