The Clear Entry Tournament
Approved by Earthworm and the tournament directors.
Introduction:
We've become so accustomed to the 4th generation metagame and all of the entry hazards that are used in it. However, sometimes we get to thinking about how it would've gone down without those entry hazards. Would Moltres be OU? How would stall work, if at all? This tournament attempts to explore those ideas by banning all of the entry hazards and forcing players to adjust to a metagame without them.
