May everyone be welcomed to this multi-tier doubles tournament (approved by tds)!
As the title says, the tour is based on Doubles tiers.

So how does this work? It's teams of 3 that will fight it all to the top in a single elimination bracket. The 3 tiers included in this tour are SS Doubles OU, SS Doubles UU and SS Doubles LC (one tier per person on the team) in a bo3 each.

To sign-up for the tournament, please post in the following format:

Name of the team (you can signup without having one):
Players:
Which tier would each player play:

Edit: You can also signup as a free agent!

Only submissions in the above format will be accepted. Either way, come by, play some Doubles action, and have fun!

Signups will close Sunday July 25th 12PM EST, after which time I will create a bracket. The rounds will follow the usual format, one week long, make sure you touch base for activity on the Smogon page so I can see it without having to hunt down screenshots. Honestly I'm not gonna go wild on the rules here, you all know what to do etc.

As someone who plays all these tiers, I figured I’d put together something like a power rankings for this tour. This should give people an idea of who plays what - but it’s on you to get them signed up.

Apologies if I missed someone - I know I will. Let me know if someone should be included!
This is for players that play all or 2 of 3 of the tiers at a high level:

Lord Death Man - Nobody has played more DUU than LDM. They also finished top 4 in the most recent DLC tour, guaranteeing them a top spot on this list.

SMB - Currently the top DUU player after going 4-1 in DPL in the tier, and then backing that up with winning the DUU ladder tournament without ever dropping a game. On top of that, SMB is also the most decorated doubles OU player in history.

Mishimono - Mishimono finished 2nd in the DLC2 DUU kickoff tournament, and is currently in the midst of a deep seasonal and OSDT run in dou.

JRL - JRL won the DLC2 DUU kickoff tournament, and is one of the top DOU players currently leading the 2021 doubles circuit.

Z Strats - Has come back from their Pokémon hiatus with a vengeance, been on a tear in OSDT and developed the benchmark DOU team. Before that they were a pro at lc/dlc.

Lightscreener - Member of the dlc council as well as having had success in dou, both in seasonals and the recent dou ladder tour.

Shadowmnstr7 - Had a very respectable run in the dlc tour and had arguably the most impressive dou stretch this generation, going 4-1 in DPL combined with a second place seasonal finish.

Voltix - helped build dlc to where it is as former tier-leader, while also has had a history of success in dou.

Oravlatore - Had a good run in the dlc tour and has had deep runs in dou tours as well.

RelicanthPrimal - Similarly had a good run in the dlc tour and in dou, while also has had success in DUU.

DnagerBadger - Similarly has had success in dlc and dou. Just wish they had signed up for DUU ladder tour earlier than 14 mins before deadline!

Acehunter1 - Likely the top DLC player, having gone 9-0 in the dlc premier league and is on dlc council.

JCBC - The DLC tier leader and had a top 4 performance in the recent dlc tour.

Yovan33321 - Finished second in the most recent dlc tour.

Ralyks Steel - Has been snowing out recently in dlc.

Risi - Had a great run in the dlc tour.

Kipkluif - Knows more about lvl 5 Pokémon than any person alive.

John1240 - Had a deep run in the dlc tour. Also plays dou, so could likely belong in the multi-tier list.

London13 - Also had a deep run in the dlc tour.

There’s not a ton of these seeing as most DUU players also play dou.

N10sit - DUU’s glorious tier leader. Would have won every DUU tour if not for being such a gentleman to not enter his own tours.

Powerman - Has shown a real aptitude for DUU as of late, and plays both dlc and dou. Might fit better in the multi-tier section.

Demantoid - Obviously plays dou, but has also done extremely well in DUU.

Memoric - Has been looking at DUU seriously as of late, and qualified in the DUU ladder tour. Obviously plays dou as well, as long as they’re not running monotype teams.

Crying - had a deep run in the DUU ladder tour.

Battontester - Qualified in the DUU ladder tour.

IMT - Had a deep run in the DUU ladder tour.

AtmosphereVGC - Performed well in DPL in DUU and had a solid run in the DUU DLC 2 kickoff tour.

Way too many to list.
