Accomplishments
I have 6x Victory Road Tour Top Cuts
4x t32
2x t16 with my highest placement being 11th: https://victoryroad.pro/vr-september-2023/
Over the time span from SWSH to SV I have won over 20 50+ player limitless tours
and have shown consistency to cut almost every online tour I have participated in.
I haven't been able to travel to an irl event bigger than a MSS, but every single local I have been to (Georgia) I have won or got 2nd. (time span from 2018-2020)
Apart from results, I have also coached VGC for many years on metafy and fiverr. Most recently the past year, using fiverr: https://www.fiverr.com/sudozz/coach-you-competitive-pokemon-at-an-expert-level?context_referrer=seller_page&ref_ctx_id=d9556324735d45b29dd0494935d5a784&pckg_id=1&pos=1&seller_online=true&imp_id=f9709fa8-490d-48ed-bcc8-f2b634dce2f2
I feel this is important to add because I have the highest rating along with 25+ customers worked with. And can show my communication when it comes to coaching and helping others, and how I will effectively communicate with my team if I potentially get drafted.

Hello, My name is Sudoz and im coming into NPA with an extremely positive outlook/approach. I enjoy working in a team setting when it comes to VGC for preparation. (Teambuilding, vod review, calcs, etc) I have been playing VGC consistently from the start of Sun and Moon (2017 to be exact). I think NPA will be a great opportunity to show what I have to offer as a player and builder and work with likeminded people that enjoy prepping and working in a team setting.
