Welcome to the Fall RU Seasonal! This seasonal will be the first tournament of the 2019 RU Tournament Circuit. Entering in this seasonal will earn you the points for an overall RU leaderboard, which contributes to achieving the amazing RU Ribbon!

Specific Rules:
  • This is a standard USM RU tournament.
  • Matches are to be played on PS!, preferably on the smogtours server.
  • The format for this tournament is best of three, double elimination.
  • Any tier changes that occur during a round will not be in effect until the following round.
  • Replays are not required until semifinals, but you should save them in the case of a disagreement; it is the only way to settle disputes!
  • Changing teams between matches is allowed.
Standard Rules and Clauses:
  • Species Clause: A player cannot have two Pokemon with the same PokeDex number on his team.
  • Sleep Clause: You cannot inflict sleep upon more than one member of the opposing team.
  • Evasion Clause: The moves Double Team and Minimize are banned.
  • OHKO Clause: The moves Horn Drill, Guillotine, Sheer Cold, and Fissure are banned.
  • Endless Battle Clause: Anything capable of intentionally creating an endless battle is banned.
General Tournament Rules:
  • Identity: I expect many battles to be completed under alts. This can be bad for tournament security, and thus I will make this clear: If I hear any whispers of identity theft (battling as someone you are not) or proxy battling (helping someone else battle through pm) I will not be pleased and I will take severe actions.
  • Scouting: Next, I do not want to hear anything about counterteaming, at all. Do not complain about it. I also don't want to hear about any blatant scouting. There is a difference between "[user] is known for using stall" and "let me follow [user] around all day to watch all his battles since I am his opponent". I expect a lot of the former and none of the latter. I give permission to all battlers to ask any person spectating their battle to leave if they do not want them watching. Everyone will have access to your replays from earlier rounds though.
  • Timer Clause: As for taking long between moves, if your opponent asks you to hurry up, please oblige. If you are doing a damage calc for a key turn that is one thing, but prolonging every move is suspicious and annoying. Don't do it. Furthermore, Battle Timeout is a rule for a reason. If you run out of time, you lose, simple as that. It does not matter what your opponent says. Do not battle if you think you will have to leave mid battle, and instead reschedule for a better time.
  • Disconnections: Finally, in the case of a disconnect, the decision is in the hands of the player who did not disconnect. The options are: redo the battle move for move, redo the battle with the same teams but different moves, or redo the battle with completely different teams. If the battle was without a doubt over, they may also take the win. Any suspicion that a disconnect was committed on purpose to redo a match may be appealed to me, and if I feel this happened there will be severe consequences, don't do it.

Finals:

TheFranklin vs Pepeduce

Pepeduce needs to win 2 series since hes coming from the loser bracket, while franklin needs to win only one. Deadline is any time before december, since thats the time where circuit starts. Good luck to both! (replays are needed ofc)

Well, I lost and in horrific fashion. To be honest I should've been out round 6 but I got out relatively easy, not playing any really hard opponents. My last series was probably the shittiest series I've ever played, and my series vs TheFranklin was the second-worst. However, I'm not saying either of these opponents are bad, as they deserved to make finals much more than I did in the end. Anyways I'd like to give a huge shoutout to Sensei Axew for carrying me through this tour through supplying me teams if y'all wanna look at the future of ru he is definitely imo one of the biggest rising stars. He had a much harder lineup to go through than I did and had to beat much more experienced players. Since he carried me this far, I'd like to just say thank you for all the help you've given me, and I hope you make playoffs next circuit. Hopefully, I might see u guys next-gen if I like the competitive scene at all, but I can't guarantee I will so this might be one of the last tours I played in. Anyways, have a great day and I might cya later.
Also TheFranklin vs Pepeduce

First of all shoutouts to Xiri for helping me test for finals, and everyone who was cheering for me along the way.

Never thought I would make it to this point when I started playing RU in the spring (Stuffuls!!). I learned a lot since then and I met a bunch of great people and opponents. Really stoked about future RU tours. See yall in circuit play offs.

Lost this grand final gratz to TheFranklin for this win.
S/O to the guys who supported me mainly the "SGZ crew" all the long i have still a chance to win something in this tier. I didn't think I'll go so far in this tour since I lost r6 winners. That was tough I hope I will take my revenge and be more focus and motivated to build and prepare the RU circuit top16 with a lot of Pepe garbage teams.
