Welcome, Smogon, to the fourth edition of UU Majors! This is the premier edition of an annual UU Circuit Tour where you can test your mettle against the top players in the community. Unlike most elimination tours, where your opponent is a matter of chance, UU Majors ensures that every participant plays a broad swath of the tier's playerbase as you fight your way to the top. We've seen a hard fought Pools stage leave a tough batch of players left for the Playoffs. Who will emerge victorious?
