Welcome to the (to the best of my knowledge) first seeded ORAS OU tournament! This will be a tournament featuring...
  • Standard ORAS OU ruleset
  • Single Elimination
  • Best of Three sets
  • 128 entrants maximum, rest will be put up as substitutes

The one quirk of this tournament is that we will seed our entrants using a process similar to the one used in the NU tour.

From SSB Wiki:
Seeding is the act of arranging players in a tournament bracket, usually to equalize both or all sides of the bracket in terms of skill, and so that the best players do not face each other until later rounds. Seeding is used so that players will usually receive placements proportionate to their skill levels.
The #1 seed will be put against the #128 seed, the #2 seed against the #127 seed, and so on. For round 2, assuming that the higher seed won in all Round 1 games, the #1 seed will play against the #64 seed, seed #2 will play vs. seed #63, and so forth.
The bracket is set from the start, so should a player with a lower seed than his opponent win, he'll go on as if he were the higher seed. For example, if the #128 seed wins over the #1 seed in round 1, the #128 seed will then face the winner between seeds #64 and #65.

The seeding will be done manually by a panel of TDK, Finchinator, CZ., Genesis7, jacob, Tokyo Tom, d0nut and Reymedy. These players are well versed in the ORAS OU scene and have kindly agreed to help me out. Together, they will seed the signups perceived on skill level, taking into account how skilled they perceive each individual to be. These seeds will then be used to form the bracket.

The tournament itself is using standard the ORAS OU ruleset. All eventual tier changes will take place during the round after the tier change occured.
