inWelcome to the first NFE Classic! Players will compete in separate tournaments for the ADV, DPP, and BW generations, culminating in a final where players will have to put their knowledge of all 3 generations to the test to have a chance of taking home the glory!Information about the NFE Classic can be found here.
The format consists of three separate tournaments: the ADV Cup, the DPP Cup, and the BW Cup. Each tournament is single elimination, best of three. Depending on your performance in a Cup, you will be awarded points. The point system is the same as the one used in Smogon Classic. When all the Cups have been finished, the 8 players with the most points will advance to the playoffs. This year's format will be a best-of-3. Higher seed choses the first tier and then the loser of each battle choses the next one.
