Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Schedule via Smogon VMs. It's easier for me to make decisions for activity calls when I can actually see what went down with scheduling.
If you are unable to schedule with your opponent, please let your managers know ASAP so they can communicate that to me or the other team's managers for a potential substitute.
Substitutions may be made after a week has started. When making a substitution, please tag myself, the managers of the opposing team, and all of the players affected by the substitute to ensure that everyone is made aware. Players who have already played in the week or were subbed out in the same week cannot be subbed back in.
If a match remains incomplete by the time of the deadline, it will be subject to an activity call.
Replays are mandatory. Not only are they useful for confirming wins, they contribute to usage stats and allow the people who couldn't watch the games live to watch them later.
Managers: Please send me your lineups in the same format that I used to post pairings. It makes it much easier to post future rounds more quickly.

GGs Darkrais. Very close series and embodied the quintessential DPP moments tbh. Also, free bo3 in dpp in other tours.
This tour started and ended on funny notes. The first memorable moment was when viv said he was not going to be present for the draft (recurring theme), so I had to run this as a solo mission in a gen quite frankly I don't know much about in the lower tier department. I think if viv were here though he'd have a heart attack to see how high I was upbidding on PDC (tbh, I was ready to drop the 40 clams on that. Worthwhile investment). Then at the end, watching Suicune live with 1% was INSANE. I was not ready for that turn to transpire and my heart sank.
Choosing between twash and Triangles for our tiebreak slot was also something that put a lot of stress on viv and I. Really, both of the players were solid options to put in, I just couldn't tell which. Triangles was playing well in the post season in bo3 but twash also has a way to play games and bring fun teams which could make it harder for the opponents to prep for us.
twash I'm glad we chose you to tiebreak and it didn't disappoint. I told viv that if we were going to sign up for DPP we had to get you, almost non negotiable.
I've been a fan of the builds since SPL and knew it'd be a good idea to draft you if we were going to go through with signing up to manage DPPPL. Tier's begging for innovation you know. You scared us though when you'd post your teams a few minutes before playing ICL but I signed up for that too. Nothing that the DPP open winner can't handle. Thank you for clutching up the finals tb my goat and glad you could be the first player on the roster and the final player to end things for us.
Punny viv really wanted to get you and that's never going to be a no from me after what you did for our RUWC team that one year. Some guys tried to upbid us on your nom so we had to return the favor..... I was willing to go much higher though just because it's clef clef tier :joycat:
Mashing From scl 3 to scl 4 and nupls and dpppls, thick and thin, we always have the same fate, except for this time. The question was never gonna be if, but how much, because I was gonna drop bands on the signup if you signed up to play. Great prepper and player in tiers that don't have the possibility to use Maushold. Hope we can finally win scl 5 this time around :dogmelon:
Really glad you put up so much work with squinn and zayele this season in our chat, our ubers could not have done that well without you. Sucks that you had to play inferior Farceus but glad you got to put up the great record and even though tiebreak didn't work out just know I wanted you to play tiebreak and was strongly considering it as an option for us as well.
squinn You came up to nom shortly after mashing and I decided to get my ubers out of the way quick. Partly because I knew I was gonna get quinn and the sqquuiinnnn combination was too good to pass up. But also because I recognized your name from the crust days and figured it'd be a good draft, and mashing agreed. You were like the only other guy to join calls really so I'm glad you could keep me company on that. RIP Lakers and glad you're doing better these days. If you leave smogon again I'm glad we could at least give you a team tour victory for once and a custom to go with it.
You played pretty well despite not playing DPP before. Heartbreaker finals game LMAO I'm amazed at how fast you picked this gen up to click decently well. Had full faith in you to play finals after you subbed in on short notice for semis. Uuwc now this. Good work soldier.
Triangles After the 40k failed upbid on PDC you were a must purchase for me in bo3. As I stated above I was really torn on who I should put in the finals tiebreak because I trusted you just as much as I did twash, especially since you were locked in for the playoffs. The finals game 3 is still a game I cannot conceive how we won but that goes to show the power of an SPL veteran who has been the subject of BKC videos in the past. Glad we got to team and hope that we can run it in SPL down the line.
Stories Oh my word. FINALS CLUTCH down 4-5 into winning TIEBREAK down 0-1? Absolute clutch gene. After a. being carried by you in fortnite and b. we talked about how much you guys prepped for mpl teams I knew it'd be a draft absolutely worthwhile. Absolutely did not care how high people were going to upbid on you after I got a general sense for your profile in team tours and in nu specifically. Nah but forreal you had the best record on this team and clutched up for us back to back in finals to which I will be forever in debt for. And that debt just keeps getting worse because of fortnite carries. The rich get richer, the poor get drastically poorer I suppose.
Donphantastic Probably the first name floated around when viv said "yo sign up to manage dpppl with me." An absolute must buy, and viv was right about his worries for how expensive you'd be. But just like mashing and tog, this was a non negotiable purcahse, and is why I needed to snatch you up quick. Now that I have your attention lets get these capperoni moments out on display for everyone to read:
Thankfully, it was me drafting and not viv. Imagine if we tried to get you later and had no money? Season would have been cooked. You carried many of the lower tiers and we couldn't have done it without you. Sorry that you had to play DPP UU against your will. I'm sure when viv and you play this again you can find a way to circumvent this.
Django Viv and I both knew we wanted you for different reasons. I saw how strong you were as a prepper in like LCBC and was thoroughly impressed. Viv knows you in the lv 100 lower tier context and was also impressed, but we both knew how much of a chat presence and support you could be so we had to get you. Lets also get this cap out of the way:
Quinn Congrats on getting your first custom and avoiding a 1% success rate in team tours or something like that. Always said to listen to cho for teams and generally that worked out pretty well. You had a great price to performance ratio and helped me with my case brought forward against DPP LC. Felt like I owed you one after the LCBC fumble and glad I could give a custom here at least.
Ara Viv suggested your name as a sub early and glad he did. You put in hundreds of test games this season that was very useful for our lower tier slots and also helped a ton with scouts. I always look to draft players like you and glad it panned out well. Now we need to lock in and find the best custom avi for our team.
Charmriah Heard your name on the block a few times, also umbry was helping me during the draft (thank god cuz VIV was not there), and this was also a good suggestion. Clutch activity gaming is always needed and one could argue that you single-handedly saved our season? Congrats on keeping up the team tour winstreak up GOAT.
summer islands My gintama brother, I knew you'd always be a good purchase after how I saw you help me in ADV LC of all things. So, I floated your name early on as someone to help with support and someone who talked in dpp channel a fair bit that other managers might not have caught onto. Then, we needed you to play in the season as well, and thankfully you took up the daunting task of playing bo3 and bringing heat. Maybe rock wrecker rhyperior or regigigas were a bit too heat, but none of that matters now. Really I knew since last year's Advpl that you'd be a great purchase in any team tour, mainly was thinking in the LC context until I signed up to manage this and knew it'd be a good opportunity to pay you back for the help.
BeeOrSomething GOAT hyper-upper, knew you'd be a good chat presence from uu experience. Shoutouts GSC UU.
And to all our support, I'll always be indebted for the support you provided despite not needing a reason to contribute. I have too much gratitude for you to join, even if it was just to support. gastlies you were a GREAT mascot, perhaps our good luck charm to this season. naere helped build my ideas for every week in DPP LC when my lazy bum just spewed 6 mons, or even just provided the entire paste for some weeks when I was busy. I know we can win LCPL in this mickey tier. umbry might as well have been the 2nd drafter since she helped me with many of the draft slots after mid-draft, more useful than viv to be honest. Pak rounded out the crust uu core that we had going on, and fatty helped with that too by joining during playoffs to give advice in our uu slots. And to Seldanna and ThinkingSceptile, you both really really helped us in ubers and the lower tiers, respectively. I'll greedily speak on behalf of mashing and donny, but I know they wouldn't have been able to do it without your help. I'm really glad you guys joined our chat and helped us out, it means a lot.
vivalospride Still don't know what possessed me to agree to this sign up but glad I did. This thing worked out well innit?
And that's a wrap! Thank you hosts for running this tour well!
