Accomplishments finished 24th at Toronto regionals, finished second in the reg e smogon ladder tour, second in a team tour league OPL in the zygarde division where I had a personal record of 4-1 for the Twinleaf Turtwigs (if you want a good idea of the type of player I am you can ask my former coach ZardiChar), top cut/ won multiple grassroots, sorta showdown ladder warrior (consistently top 100 across alts) as well as top cut many other smogon held tours.

Bio Im eager to play and compete against the best, as well as always looking for opportunities to test and improve my skills, whether it be in play making, teambuilding etc. As im only 17, I know I have a lot of skill and that if I continue to play against high competition im confident in myself to do well and be successful. im also a very active and helpful teammate, always willing to help test, build, learn and help my peers! Thank you for your time (free cookie if you pick me)

Accomplishments Day 2 Worlds, 2018. Top Cut Dallas 2020.

Bio Hey there! I'm a long time player looking to dip my toes back in the ring after a much needed break. I've been touching up on my draft league skills for the last couple years, playing and advancing my teams in AML, USPA, and in prior years NPA. I've grown a lot as a person and player over the years and look forward to the opportunity to see where that's gotten me. Thank you, and have a wonderful day.

Bio Experienced draft league player with 2 NPA seasons with Blizzards, and several smaller draft leagues. Most recent draft league experience was with Ireland World Cup team finishing 4-2. I love to collaborate in draft league teams to explore new teams and work on matchups for weekly matches. I am the best psyspam player in the world, but I am not a one-trick pony.

Accomplishments Top Cut in VR x GGtoor February S12 Challenge (Swsh)
Top cut in a lot Victory Road tours.
Tops in PCs /MSS 's

Bio I have been playing vgc since the beginning of swsh. I started playing the Victory Roads tournaments to prove myself, reaching R9 or cut in some of them. I cannot afford going to regionals until I finished my careers, so I compete in the things I can around me or online.
I am a player that can adapt to everything very fast, as I have played other things outside vgc, like singles tours, drafts or dou. In Dou for example that is very similar to vgc, I have participated in EPL and DOUWcop making good personal results in both (without playing the tier before) and reaching top 1 in ladder several times for a while.
Also I build everything I play in vgc, so I have experience in that part too.

Accomplishments Got top 8 at the 900+ people Limitless tournament

Top 16 in both 2021 and 2022 Victory Road World Cup with Team Brazil (team tour) | Personal Record 2-3 and 5-2
Top 40 in São Paulo Regionals 2023 (6-3)
Top 1 in SD ladder at sometimes
Top 16 at Victory Road to Columbus 2022 (8-1 Swiss)

Bio Im brazilian and I do play since SWSH, but due to school i could never really focus in VGC. I played NPA once for Cruisers, but got a really bad 0-2 result.
However, now im finally out school, meaning i have enough time to focus on the game. I also want try a Worlds invite, so for sure im gonna be playing very often and trying to improve all the time.

I have helped Gabriel Agati (@AgatiGa) on his prep to mutiple tournaments, including NAIC 2022, Worlds 2022/London Open, OCIC 2023, Natal Regionals 2023, and EUIC 2023, where he did pretty well in most (all) of them. With another friend of mine, João Gonçalves (@joaohcastrog), we together built his Natal Regionals 2023 team, tournament where he got top 4. All of this is for me to say, I believe I can help teammates to do better with pratice sets, while also improving myself.
