!

Rules & Tournament Format

General Tournament Rules
  • This is a standard SV DOU tournament.
  • OSDT V will be a swiss tournament with a top cut of 16.
    • Players will be automatically dropped when they hit three losses as they are no longer in contention for top cut.
    • Players will be assigned a random opponent out of the pool of players with the same record as you each round.
  • Rounds will be Best of Three. You may switch teams in between battles of the same set.
  • Matches are to be played on Pokemon Showdown!. If you can't agree on which server to play on, the Smogtours server is the default option.
  • Replays are required and must be posted every round.
  • There are no extensions, so please get your games done on time.
  • Your hosts are TPP, a fairy, FayaWizard and Dead by Daylight
Activity Decisions / Coin Flips: In the event that there is an uncompleted match at the deadline, it will be coin flipped unless one or both of the players involved in the match specifically request an activity win and explain sufficiently why they deserve to win over their opponent. Attempting to schedule a battle is required in order to receive the win by activity. To make it clear that you are requesting an activity win when you post, you must open your post with "Activity Win Request" in bold.

For example, if you believe your opponent is making an unfair request and that they don't deserve the activity win over you, you can either make your own request or quote their post and explain why they don't deserve it. You should try to make your activity win request posts at least 24 hours before the deadline to give your opponent a reasonable opportunity to contest it with their own activity win request.

In case of disconnections, if you played in the SmogTours server, call a Tournament Director as soon as possible and we'll see about the possibility of having a rematch.

Prize

Courtesy of the Pokemon Showdown! Upper Staff, in addition to the trophy, the winner of OSDT V will win an additional prize. The winner will have a choice of receiving a Custom Avatar or reclaiming an inactive username on Pokemon Showdown!, with the runner-up receiving the option not chosen by the winner.

EDIT ! 6-2 ADDED FIRST TIME :o
Little prono for this week, sadly I'm not on 7-1 group due to kid debuff. Little advice for newcomers : Never make kids, stay solo, focus on pokemon. Or you'll just lose an 8th round of OSDT cause your kid will get sick at the worst time everytime ! (exemple for this week : my kid get sick when my wife was on work trip.. I love you my kid, but you're a bit.. frustrating xD)

8-0 Group

Chris32156  vs  Xrn : Xrn still solid but Chris is a bit more inovative.

7-1 Group

Trout In Space  vs  Penter : Go Trout !!!
breakfast enjoyer  vs  SMB : Sry breakfast enjoyer but SMB is a bit too big ^^
xqiht  vs  Fangame10 : I just flipcoined this one
trace  vs  DaAwesomeDude1 : Dad1 is the goat <3 (still sry for making you waiting Trace)
SeaLife  vs  Actuarily : Actuarily is really good, but I hope on SeaLife this year <3
Yoda2798  vs  Grandmas Cookin : Old man's battle. The one who'll stay alive for the game will have the AW :D
MichaelderBeste2  vs  Mako : Michael just too good imo.
sir jelloton  vs  Nido-Rus : Both good players, really 50/50, more a DUU match than DOU ^^

6-2 Group

Hugo  vs  Kinzo : Go go my bro <3
DarkPine  vs  Charlotte : Chargoat <3
Zerotti  vs  IcyPenguin2 : I've faced both on ladd, both were easy to beat (joke, both ends with my rilla / volc / gambit with 1% hp each times ...)
aseqq  vs  NecasInTrouble : Both good player, but Necas had more solid ingame
volcaronavgc  vs  SoulWind : Soulwind is a big player, but if volca doesn't stress out (a bit too late imo) win is here !
jonas  vs  Beemo666 : Just better
Schister  vs  MADARAAAA : I can't vote out of europe here.
Test Bots  vs  Tenebricite : Just don't pick one of your ladder team please ... just play sample and you'll win.
ionnss  vs  Novax : Hard match up, but ionnss is on a good pace
seta0052  vs  Yellow Paint : Take your day to focus bro' !
thacrow  vs  gephicka : To be honest, I would have vote Thacrow here. But I've seen the match and it was rude for him, gg wp for your run !
Rojo53  vs  Sapphire : Scouted.
Sunrose  vs  Lugi Lugi : No VGC here.
BloodAce  vs  Nakano Nino : I don't really know you, tbh I haven't seen any of your matches, but if you're here, you're not that bad !
Opelucid  vs  KeanuVGC : Hard MU, prety 50/50, but I'ven't seen keanu played since ... last OSDT ^^

iPetBigfoot  vs  SHIMA : More experience, good run tbh from iPetBigFoot for his first time (iirc)
Quinn  vs  Demantoid : Holy **** I would love seen this game. Both good team picker, good ingame, I will love that go on 3 games plz.
Nephtyrix  vs  Terekusai : Obvsly I would have vote myself, I'm better but I'm nerfed by my kid so ... ^^
Voltix  vs  Jazz721 : You're free from DLC, so focus now please.
Viperino+1997  vs  entrocefalo : Same as iPetBigFoot, I love seen you (Viperino) wrote on discord and being part of the doubles family.

I fear imma have the call act, my opponent said at the start of the week that he would be going somewhere with no internet and it seems he was right, we haven't been able to schedule and im not all that sure if I can still fit it even if he messaged me now, For now this is my act call but if we end up playing I will update this message, proof is on my wall.

Update: was given the win
