Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | Week 5 | Week 6 | Week 7 | Semifinals | Finals
Spreadsheet | Commencement | Admin Decisions | Replays​
  • Schedule via Smogon VMs. It's easier for us to make decisions for activity calls when we can actually see what went down with scheduling.
  • If you are unable to schedule with your opponent, please let your managers know ASAP so they can communicate that to us or the other team's managers for a potential substitute.
  • When making a substitution, please tag myself, the managers of the opposing team, and all of the players affected by the substitute to ensure that everyone is made aware. Players who have already played in the week or were subbed out in the same week cannot be subbed back in.
  • If a match remains incomplete by the time of the deadline, it will be subject to an activity call.
  • Replays are mandatory. Not only are they useful for confirming wins, but they also contribute to usage stats and allow the people who couldn't watch the games live to watch them later.
  • To managers: Please send us your lineups in the same format that we used to post pairings. It makes it much easier to post future rounds more quickly.

Week 1: 16/27
Week 2: 19/30
Week 3: 18/29
Week 4: 15/27
Week 5: 16/28
my preds have been a bit worse after a decently strong start but still over 50% so. beating the coin

:dewgong: Ding Dang Dewgongs (5) vs (5) Nine Inch Ninetales :Ninetales:
RBY OU Bo5: Laroxyl vs violet river - he is him
RBY OU Bo3: TheStupe vs magialice - most cosmically funny outcome given river has said several times theyre not high on stupe so therefore im bolding for that
RBY OU Bo3: BlazingDark vs anesidora - bd way too good for ou3 unless hes on a bad day
RBY OU Bo3: Melanie goes boating vs Thare Regn - youre welcome river+sab for the midtournament scouting advice
RBY OU Bo3: Bedal Roscoe vs padeli - mainer diff
RBY Ubers: Cao Jie vs Sabelette - nice by cao jie to get on the board last week, sab is washed im afraid but not washed enough to lose this
RBY UU: Fc vs deutzias - deutzias is the fc of 2026 when you think about it
RBY NU: hammer798 vs Toxin Boost - coinflip tier but go with this ig
RBY PU: PHB11677 vs Plague - not sure how plague lost last week i didnt watch the games kinda wild but anyway im not not bolding him
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Prussian-Jaeger vs blundergoth - good player

:articuno: Glacial Articunos (8) vs (2) Pampu Primeapes :mankey:
RBY OU Bo5: RealJester vs Serpi - ctown copied my prep (or arrived at similar prep from first principles) and serpi lost again but like surely some adjustment and/or surely jester doesnt have quite the same rby acumen
RBY OU2: Quarante8 vs Melbelle - too tilted to reasonably win
RBY OU3: Gamebooadvanced vs Corvinus - the 4-0 and 0-4 streaks both broke last week but still surely in a better place overall
RBY OU4: phoopes vs KeshBa54 - kesh having a good tournament
RBY OU5: tr0mb0ner vs Deezcastforms - kindof goated
RBY Ubers: Premonitions vs Ummbr - i guess
RBY UU: Teh vs pac - the joy and whimsy has returned teh will do well
RBY NU: BeatsBlack vs THE_CHUNGLER - looks very solid despite not knowing what mons were in the tier at start of tour. nice work
RBY PU: JoshSketch vs boomp - if you can beat plague youre probably jesus? idk
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Kingslayer Caterpie vs Panty&Stockings - both have already won (lula elected)

:diglett: Deadbeat Dugtrios (3) vs (7) Misinfo MissingNo :ditto:
RBY OU Bo5: Ctown6 vs NotVeryCake - got a bit lucky but other ppl got a bit lucky and didnt take me to 6 games and eventually win, cake kinda fucking real at rby ou im afraid
RBY OU2: Kristyl vs spies - idk. coinflip probably. both good but super unbalanced players and idr enough about both to see which ones wild unbalances matches up better vs the other's
RBY OU3: LB vs Mysterious M - mm was dubious last week but still good overall and lb while good instincts isnt gonna be as good in tight spots
RBY OU4: oakdeon vs virae - love virae but this is the kind of player oakdeon inexplicably farms
RBY OU5: BIG WILL vs Bedschibaer - no shame in losing to the goat nimrra the first, beds will continue doing well vs the rest of ou5
RBY Ubers: betathunder vs YBW - will finish x-0 unless we meet again in playoffs
RBY UU: FighterFrog vs paysa - could go either way but i feel like paysa can level up a lot week by week so banking on that a bit
RBY NU: Sotina vs Click>Think - coinflip tier but you bold for canadian luck in these situations
RBY PU: Inazuma-Fulgur vs hex - better player
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Mikon vs royzin - better player

15/28 last week started well with 8/10 on Gongs vs Illusion then capitulated the other 2 series, time to improve!

:dewgong: Ding Dang Dewgongs (5) vs (5) Nine Inch Ninetales :Ninetales:
RBY OU Bo5: Laroxyl vs violet river - Both in form so just going for the player with the higher ceiling imo
RBY OU Bo3: TheStupe vs magialice - Alice is def capable but backing Gtupe in 3
RBY OU Bo3: BlazingDark vs anesidora - BD seems very locked in this tour
RBY OU Bo3: Melanie goes boating vs Thare Regn - Didn't watch Thare Regn last week think they had a good ssnl run tho so in form rn
RBY OU Bo3: Bedal Roscoe vs padeli - Going for the experience diff here
RBY Ubers: Cao Jie vs Sabelette - Sab in 3
RBY UU: Fc vs deutzias - Took a few sec to work out who tf this was and oh it's eva. Who has been very impressive so far imo
RBY NU: hammer798 vs Toxin Boost - Gonna stick with the 'keep bolding Toxin' strat but wow this is a heavyweight MU. Could swing either way HIGHLIGHT
RBY PU: PHB11677 vs Plague - Didn't watch Plague last week, heard they got haxxed silly. Due some RNG back
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Prussian-Jaeger vs blundergoth - Tough tour so far for bgoth in a pool full of ppl with years of high level experience. On paper pj one of the more likely scalps she could take but he's still a pretty safe bet

:hitmonchan: Saffron Haymakers (6) vs (4) Indigo Illusion :alakazam:
RBY OU Bo5: Amaranth vs Ulti Bastion - Ulti vs his daddy. Will put up a very good fight but Ama still prob favoured here HIGHLIGHT
RBY OU Bo3: oligen1 vs Mimikyu Stardust - oligoat1
RBY OU Bo3: SoggyBagel64 vs TPM - With respect to Bagel I'm pretty confident on this one
RBY OU Bo3: MGdos16 vs Justamente - Guy is on fire rn, not just in PL but seasonal. Expecting the Pablo juggernaut keeps rolling
RBY OU Bo3: Nimrra1 vs alidakiller - Most 50-50 game of the entire week imo. So simply flipped a coin
RBY Ubers: Samu77 vs pixie909 - Played these two over last fortnight and although they brought some real Haram bullshit I rlly liked the plays of both. Similar styles but Samu was just much cleaner with it
RBY UU: ThatOneApple vs Theycallmephil - Apple is usually a very safe bet in UU
RBY NU: Duke Sux vs yimb - yimb is better imo
RBY PU: ButtGallon vs Zpice - Bo35 PU?!?! LOOOOL. Should be fire. Both strong players especially in this tier. Zpice is in far better form tho
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): MrSoup vs Lady Writer - LW is a bit better at the format but I've got a feeling Soup wins a classic in 7 here HIGHLIGHT

:articuno: Glacial Articunos (7) vs (3) Pampu Primeapes :mankey:
RBY OU Bo5: RealJester vs Serpi - I'll always bold Serpi
RBY OU2: Quarante8 vs Melbelle - Been a torrid few weeks for Mel and 48 has been pretty solid so
RBY OU3: Gamebooadvanced vs Corvinus - First loss for gameboo last week, first win for Corv. Will their tours continue to turn around? Not this week i think
RBY OU4: phoopes vs KeshBa54 - Should be a good match, I think Kesh is better tho
RBY OU5: tr0mb0ner vs Deezcastforms - Nick is still unbeaten in Bo3 slots I think. This'll be his sternest test but think he'll just about edge through it
RBY Ubers: Premonitions vs Ummbr - Didn't watch Ummbr in the sub in game last week so no idea what to expect of them. Prem has won 3 in a row so happy to bold
RBY UU: Teh vs pac - Both doing rlly well, gonna go for my boy pac HIGHLIGHT
RBY NU: BeatsBlack vs THE_CHUNGLER - NU pool is so balanced in record rn who knows. Just decided to go off record for this one. 3-2 vs 2-3
RBY PU: JoshSketch vs boomp - No clue tbh not seen either play much
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Kingslayer Caterpie vs Panty&Stockings - Brazil has always had a great pedigree in RBY randbats so nice to see 2 of its shining stars do battle here. KSC whooped me in Indigo Semi's a few days ago so hard to see past him
 
I got 16/28 last week not bad
:dewgong: Ding Dang Dewgongs (7) vs (3) Nine Inch Ninetales :Ninetales:
RBY OU Bo5: Laroxyl vs violet river - Violet makes better plays i think
RBY OU Bo3: TheStupe vs magialice - Like 60/40 for Stupe
RBY OU Bo3: BlazingDark vs anesidora - BD more experience
RBY OU Bo3: Melanie goes boating vs Thare Regn - Melanie the goat
RBY OU Bo3: Bedal Roscoe vs padeli - 50/50 idk
RBY Ubers: Cao Jie vs Sabelette - Sabelette should win... but she has been making some misplays
RBY UU: Fc vs deutzias - Coinflip tier
RBY NU: hammer798 vs Toxin Boost - I'm going hammer idk why

RBY OU Bo3: oligen1 vs Mimikyu Stardust - oligen more experience
RBY OU Bo3: SoggyBagel64 vs TPM - TPM more experience
RBY OU Bo3: MGdos16 vs Justamente - Justamente has been winning a lot so.
RBY OU Bo3: Nimrra1 vs alidakiller - 50/50 matchup

RBY OU4: phoopes vs KeshBa54 - Coinflip matchup
RBY OU5: tr0mb0ner vs Deezcastforms - I don't know honestly
RBY Ubers: Premonitions vs Ummbr - Premonitions has more experience but he could lose if he really tries to cook
RBY UU: Teh vs pac - Teh has been making better plays I think.
RBY NU: BeatsBlack vs THE_CHUNGLER - I'll give it to chungler idk why
RBY PU: JoshSketch vs boomp - Sketch won last week but his rng was so insane. He says that was his first time ever playing pu
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Kingslayer Caterpie vs Panty&Stockings - Very close matchup but ill give it to panty.
 
:hitmonchan: Saffron Haymakers (6) vs (4) Indigo Illusion :alakazam:
RBY OU Bo5: Amaranth vs Ulti Bastion Amaranth is just better
RBY OU Bo3: oligen1 vs Mimikyu Stardust about as one sided as a matchup can get on paper
RBY OU Bo3: SoggyBagel64 vs TPM I've been more impressed by tpm than bagel
RBY OU Bo3: MGdos16 vs Justamente Undefeated = instant bold at this point
RBY OU Bo3: Nimrra1 vs alidakiller Nimrra don't lose to this smurf Highlight
RBY Ubers: Samu77 vs pixie909 samu stop angry reacting me plz
RBY UU: ThatOneApple vs Theycallmephil This is pretty one sided in my eyes
RBY NU: Duke Sux vs yimb yimb has been playing ok enough but it's rby nu the best tier of all time where all losses and wins are deserved

RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): MrSoup vs Lady Writer Soup wins these but this match is still hype Highlight

RBY OU2: Quarante8 vs Melbelle This is the mel comeback week trust
RBY OU3: Gamebooadvanced vs Corvinus There's a massive skill difference here imo
RBY OU4: phoopes vs KeshBa54 Not really close here either sadly
RBY OU5: tr0mb0ner vs Deezcastforms Deez is just better
RBY Ubers: Premonitions vs Ummbr a person I never heard of vs one of the better players
RBY UU: Teh vs pac This is the uu game of the season Highlight
RBY NU: BeatsBlack vs THE_CHUNGLER Flip a coin it's rby nu after all, beats is still better tho...

:diglett: Deadbeat Dugtrios (6) vs (4) Misinfo MissingNo :ditto:

RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Mikon vs royzin The two best randbats players going at it Highlight


:dewgong: Ding Dang Dewgongs (1) vs (∞) Nine Inch Ninetales :Ninetales:

RBY NU: hammer798 vs Toxin Boost Hammer you are right that I don't enjoy this and it's hurting my performance, if only there was a super broken mon who's mere existence getting deleted would instantly improve this tier to a playable state, but alas no such mon exists. Even if hammer wins the set as predicted he played rby nu so there are no winners to be found.
