Some might say this tour was boring, but I really found it fun and enjoyable. With its conclusion, I'd like to shoutout several people. First of all, the finalists, the team Latam players. You guys had an amazing run and things could have gone differently under slightly more favourable RNG. You have a great team there and you'll get many more wins in the future.
A big thanks to the hosts Freya and Concept again, for doing the work that very few people are willing to do, and probably don't get thanked enough. Sorry guys for any incovenience we might have caused you.
Moving on to my goats:
My trusty CoCaptain
Don Eduardo Carapinga, who got us 3 dubs between pools and knock outs, all necessary for our final success.
Lily you put on a hell of a performance. 2 crucial wins in pools, followed by 6 more in the knock out stages and tiebreaks, possibly all of them being do or die. Truly the performance of a lifetime, against the best of the best. I really enjoyed offering the little support I could for your slot, and hopefully that made me a somewhat better player (builder even? who knows). Your support for the other SV slots and the oldgens was also irreplaceable, giving feedback and teams whenever asked. Thank you for being a part of this team and caring.
Punny I'm grateful you took up my offer to join this tour. Much like Lily, you were one of this teams' cornerstones. Got for us 5 important wins, some of them being do or die too. Very much self sufficient, with a unique approach to teambuilding that's very much impossible to emulate. It was so nice for me to never have to worry about your slot. Your support for the rest of our SV slots and in SM was also crucial for our success.
Drud I asked for reinforcements and you were also once of the folks who took me up on that. Thank you. Even without having played this tier lately, you showed how capable of a pilot you are and you got us 2 necessary wins in order to get out of pools and then of course another big 1 in finals.
Mada you were a bit unlucky in this tour, but that happens sometimes. You're still an amazing pilot and we wouldn't have won this tour if not for your win in the pools. Your work ethic is great and I have no doubt you'll dominate UU if you stick around. Doing many of our scouts was also very helpful for me, so thank you for being on the team.
Leni thank you for answering my signup call and being a part of this team. This wasn't a good tour for you, but that mostly has to do with our matchup calls and the in game RNG, rather than your play. Keep playing and the results will come.
lolebruh our SS slot was the slot we struggled with the most, and winning our finals' game after subbing in there was epic. That was only the cherry on top, after helping a bunch with all of our oldgens slots. Your presence was vital for our success, thank you for answering my call and joining our team.
Empo teaming up with one of the goats will for sure be a memorable experience for me. Thank you for joining this team man. I was pleasantly surprised with seeing how much you cared for this tour with your overall prep. Your win in pools, like every other win we got, was very much vital for winning this. There's no doubt you'll do even better if you decide to join more UU tours and I hope we can team up again.
Santu I remember you told me that you wanted to delete your sign up before this thing started, and had you done so, the results would have been much worse for us. You ended up being one of our most clutch players, getting vital wins in the pools, knock out and tiebreak games. Your feedback for our ORAS and SS slots was also always on point and part of our success there is yours. Thank you for joining this team and caring as much as you did.
Real FV13 you were another one of our clutch performers. I'm glad to see your effort paying off with 4 wins in this tour. You absolutely didn't need anyone's help with building ORAS, but someone who knows their stuff and is also willing to listen to other opinions and maybe get out of their comfort zone at times, truly makes for a fear inducing opponent. I enjoyed wacthing you grow further as a player in this tour, thank you for joining this team.
Special shout outs to a few more people who helped with this teams' success:
691 thank you for joining our server and helping out with our oldgens stuff, really appreciate you.
umbry thank you for your advice for our ORAS slot, for the team you passed early on and for testing with me for my semis game.
Sabella thank you for the team you passed for our semis game and for testing with me for my semis game.
