It is my pleasure to inform you that the fifth edition of "Los Juegos del Azar" is officially underway, so you are invited to participate and demonstrate your skills in the most fun tier on the entire site, CC1V1 and CC2V2, but this year with major changes. This is the biggest tournament event hosted by the Hispanic community. I am TheJesucristoOsAma, and I will be the host for this iteration, so feel free to ask me anything you need.
Tournament Description:
- 16 teams. 10 players each one. Divided into 4 groups of 4 teams, where the first 2 teams of each group will go to the quarterfinals.
- The tournament will be played in the CC1V1 (4 Slots), CC2V2 (3 Slots) formats, a brand-new format CC Mystery Box (1 Slot) and the other 2 slots for subs.
- The Group Phase has 6 Rounds, each team will play 3 sets home and 3 sets away. Every team will face each other twice. The local advantage is getting an opponent Pokémon banned randomly in each game (Using !dice 6). Every match will be Bo7, and the duel ends reaching 4 wins.
- Each pairing set has 3 "Wildcards" (this can be updated after suggestions), which are spent in the specific moment that the player selects to. These are:
- 1) Targeted Ban
- 2) Targeted Showset
- 3) Tera Ban
- 4) Remake (only on team preview)
- Note: The tera ban wildcard is only for cc2v2 battles.
- You CAN'T use TWO wildcards in the same battle, you can play yours and your opponent may use one as well. And you CAN'T use the same wildcard twice in the Bo7.
- Wildcard are ONLY valid during team preview. For a wildcard to be valid you MUST SAY IT BEFORE PICKING mon. If you ask for a wildcard and select mon directly the wildcard will be cancelled and the game will be your LOSE. If this happens, you'll take the LOSE but the wildcard WON'T consume. Even if its the last wildcard in your hand you must specify what wildcard you're playing.
- The winner team will get +3 points on the Board, tie gives +1 for both teams. After 6 Rounds, the two best teams of each group will go to the quarterfinals stage where the Local and away rule will no longer apply, but the 3 wildcards will stay until the event ends.

There are 16 teams from the eventos circuit:
The snake draft method is the system used to select players. The captains will have a list of available players and the signings will be announced it on the official server of the event. Each Captain will draft 8 players. Good sportsmanship is required to participate in this Tournament. Overwhelming toxicity or going out of your way to bypass the anti-scouting measures in the tournament will not be tolerated and will result in a ban from competing in the tournament. If you are a victim of any of these during the tournament, please contact a Host (
TheJesucristoOsAma,
Exi0022 and
Lets In The Sun) with relevant screenshots as evidence.
Activity Calls: The priority is to make contact with your opponents! To prevent this, post a VM on their Smogon wall to try to set a date for the battle. If you do this via any other medium, save logs and screenshots just in case to have proof if needed. Leave timezones preferred time to play, and be specific. No activity calls will be made if neither team's players or captain post about it, so take initiative on that.
Dead Games: In the tournament, if a game is not played and neither teams post for an activity call, it will be declared a dead game, which means that the game will be taken as to not exist. This will also be the case if an activity post is made but neither players showed a satisfactory level of activity.
Prizes and rewards: A Team Custom Avatar for the winning team. The winning team of Los Juegos Del Azar will be awarded a team avatar with the team mascot courtesy of Zarel. The winning team will get the Room Prize Winner (RPW) rank in Pokemon Showdown Spanish Room with a duration of two weeks.
