Welcome, Smogon, to the fifth 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. Last year we saw CBU and Eternally fight their way to the top, what up and coming UU players will emerge this time around? It could be you, so don't miss your chance to sign up for the most electrifying UU Circuit tournament!
During Stage 2, players will face each other in a randomly generated bracket and take each other on in a best of 3 SS UU series.
