Except this is before DPP cup ended so OBB and sugar ovens switch for seeds 2 and 3

Choosing Metagames
  • Lower seed locks one tier, higher seed drops two tiers, then the lower seed drops one tier, leaving five metagames remaining for the bo5
  • The most recent remaining metagame will be the first played (e.g. default to SS PU unless dropped then default to SM PU etc.)
  • After that, the loser of the previous game may choose the next generation as long as it was not dropped or already played
  • In order to facilitate the metagame decision process, I will be starting private conversations on Smogon with each pair of players where you can give you decisions
