yes :dbonsly:
 
Manager: vwnz

Assistant Manager (if applicable): Yash Vortex

Team Name: Shadow Gengar :gengar:

List of Achievements: We apply quite a bit for manager positions. We're real hard workers with no prior experience on Smogon. We've set up our own server and created events, nothing more. Personally, I manage teams on Discord without any real experience.

Why would you be a good manager? We know where we want to take the team, we have excellent analytical skills and know how to react immediately. Even in difficult times, we remain calm, we maintain discipline and motivation, and we'll go far. I envision a future with our team; we have the potential to create great things.

Manager: Interlinked
Assistant Manager (if applicable): Velcroc Enzonana.
Team Name: Sub-Zero Kyurems

List of Accomplishments:
Velcroc is a long time NatDex Player who has enough experience with managing / playing in team tours. He's also on the NDRU Council, and an active presence in the ND Lower Tiers. Assistant manager of Basculegion Of Doom which made semis and lost is tiebreaks in the recent NDPL. He also managed NDWC for Asia this year, as well as managing NDBD last year, leading his team to semis lossless.
Enzonana is a prominent DOU player, who's recently won a NDDOU Seasonal without losing a single set. He also won the previous edition of NDPL and managed NDFL II, leading his team to semis. Outside ND, Enzo recently won EPL both as a manager and as a player, and has been a past SCL player/winner.
As for myself, I'm an active presence in most of the ND Tiers. I'm rather new to the managing / tour scene as a whole and want to manage some tournaments. My previous managing experience comes from shadow-managing India during NDWC, as well as ISTT. As for my accomplishments,
I've had somewhat of deep runs in the Winter Seasonal for both OU and Ubers. I've played in NDWC and NDFL for team tours within ND.

Why would you make a Good Manager?:
I believe that we can foster an environment for players to win, and most importantly have fun along the tour. Both of my co-managers ,as well as myself, have more than enough experiences to handle teams with many of our combined accomplishments being mostly is playoffs. We would make a good managerial core because we know what it takes to win, while combing our experience from all over the tiers in the format.

Manager: reversoral
Assistant Manager (if applicable): Genesis9507 and summer romance
Team Name: Scoobing Scoobert Sableyes
List of Accomplishments: As a group, we’ve been consistently active and successful across the National Dex scene. Although we are all relatively new players, the three of us have made deep runs in recent major individual tours, including Summer Seasonal and LC. Summer is currently in the Quarter Finals of Hasbullza. We all came very close to qualifying for the ND Circuit overall. We also played and supported and played in NDFL, giving us team tour experience across multiple tiers. I effectively managed my NDFL team as the managers were absent during the tour. I scouted for my team members, built and guided the less experienced players. Genesis has ghost managed various tours and has been a staple of the scene since emerging as a ladder topping player. I helped Toxic Ariados prep during his run towards winning Last Chance and Summer Romance helped build teams used by Lameflame during SSNL. Summer and Genesis also helped Isza test during his run to winning NDLT. Genesis also helped ghost manage the winning team during NDWC.
Why would you make a Good Manager? We are all highly respected players, known by everyone in the scene. We are available, consistent and actively build and play the tier on a daily basis. We're all able to support players and comfortable building in every tier. Across the three of us, we have building, scouting and prep experience in every slot this tour offers. We’re invested—unemployed in spirit and in practice—and can guarantee a highly engaged, supportive environment for our team. We know what it takes to help players perform, improve, and enjoy the tour. We feel we represent the new generation of players. Although we might not have the reputation on smogon that others have, you've probably lost to us at some point on ladder and in tour. we are coming for those council spots
