shoutout earthworm for hosting, short version of my thoughts on this tier after 12 games: very unfun to play. probably because feraligatr and raichu are broken. and can't beat themselves.

 

[Genesis7]

Oh I didn't notice you already beat CE, grats. Ya Feraligatr is def waaaay too good for this meta, it's nigh unkillable, raichu kind of has a shitty movepool but it's a necessity with Feraligatr, so it's like a Raikou in this meta which just draws games out. I liked the 2016 meta a lot better, there was more room for creativity there.

 

[Lavos]

props to the other finalists for their success!

GSC LOWER TIER KING HSA

 

[Eo Ut Mortus]

Congratulations to two-time GSC lower tier winner GSC LOWER TIER KING HSA, but even more congratulations to two-time GSC lower tier host Earthworm. Never before have I see such a splendid back-to-back display of GSC lower tier hosting. My goodness.

 

[Fantos13]

Congrats to HSA for winning this! See? You've proven to be a very insightful GSC lowtier player, hope you can keep it going strong!
And also thanks to earthworm for hosting this very fluid tour, I enjoyed watching from the shadows after my L round 2.
And as the posts above already say: it's quite an interesting tier but it needs way more development to be a healthy one.

[Earthworm]

Congratulations on winning another one of my GSC tournaments, GSC LOWER TIER KING HSA, and congratulations also to the other finalists, especially Century Express who has made it to the finals of the UU and NU tournaments in succession. I hope you all enjoyed playing this brand new metagame.

As many of you already know, I have spent the last few days chasing up replays from people so that I could have usage stats that are as complete as possible. I am now fairly certain that I have all the replays that exist for this tour, so here are the stats:
