LGPE OU Global Championship is a standard LGPE OU Tournament with a goal to find the best LGPE OU player of the year.
This is the first ever LGPE OU Global Championship!​
  • This is a standard LGPE OU tournament
  • This tournament will be a Global Championship. (explained below!)
  • You may switch teams in between battles for your Best of 3s.
  • Matches are to be played on Pokemon Showdown! (Main or SmogTours)
  • To encourage the development of the metagame, and so that everyone is on an even playing field, replays are required for all matches.
  • Activity calls will be made by me, potentially with neutral assistance from a RoA Forum Moderator. Coin flips will be done publicly on PS!
  • In the event that something is added to or removed from the LGPE OU metagame in the middle of a round, that change will be in effect starting the next round.
  • Do not cheat. Cheating will result in a disqualification. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary. Cheating includes, but is not limited to:
    • Signing up with more than one account
    • Ghosting or being ghosted by another player (e.g. while playing a set, asking for advice about what plays to make)
    • Manipulating match outcomes (e.g. throwing a match in exchange for Smogon likes)
  • Do not harass or insult your opponents. I reserve the right to disqualify anyone breaking this rule. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary.
Each round will consist of 2 stages. The first stage each player will be given 2 sets of pairings, in which they play a first-to-2-wins (best of 3 excluding ties) vs their opponent. After the first stage is completed and the host has determined wins, players who win both their matches go through to the next round, while players who lost twice are eliminated. The players who won 1, lost 1, battle it out in a tiebreaker Bo3 in stage 2 to join the two-time winners in the next round (or the player wins the tournament in the case of a final). If a 3-way final, a 3-man Bo3 round robin will determine the winner of the tournament (repeated if necessary).

Tournament Format : pseudo-double elimination

Round 1: Stage 1 - 2 sets of 32 FT2W matches (64 unseeded players, subs period) & Stage 2
Round 2: Stage 1 - 2 sets of 16 first-to-2-wins matches (32 unseeded players) & Stage 2
Round 3: Stage 1 - 2 sets of 8 first-to-2-wins matches (16 unseeded players) & Stage 2
Round 4: Stage 1 - 2 sets of 4 first-to-2-wins matches (8 unseeded players) & Stage 2
Round 5: Stage 1 - 2 sets of 2 first-to-2-wins matches (4 unseeded players) & Stage 2
Finals: Stage 1 - 2 sets of first-to-2-wins matches (2 unseeded players) & Stage 2
Stage 1 End: Players with 2 match wins go through, and those with 2 losses are eliminated.
Stage 2: Players with a 1-1 record play each other in a FT2W match to see who progresses (or wins the final)
TL:DR
You play two Bo3s each round against two different opponents
Win both Bo3s in Round: Advance to Next Round
Lose both Bo3s in Round: Eliminated from Tournament
Go 1-1 in Bo3s in Round: Play in a final Bo3 in Stage 2 - winner of the set moves on while loser is eliminated

The prize returns: a $50 (or equivalent) amazon gift card will be given out to the winner of the entire tournament! Thank you to Lutra for funding the prize!

Subs (in order):
NOTE: I had some issues with the bracket maker since it was my first time using it. Attempt #1 had me in the pairings and the subs were the last 12 people to sign up, not randomized from the last 3/8. Attempt #2 had the same subs issue, even though they didn't appear in the bracket maker. Attempt #3 had the same subs issue. This is finally the correct version ;;;;

PHASE 2

Round 1 Phase 2 Pairings:
Maki F-0 Spook
EarthTraveler413 0-A Archiiiie17
Aliss 0-F Mister Tim
ausma 2-0 Hayburner
Nowh 0-A BlazingDark
Ainzcrad 0-2 ViZar
Far too complex 0-2 Eve
Thiago Nunes 0-W Cheese5555
Roxiee 1-2 egalvanc
TDNT 1-2 SiirinZ

Bracket Maker is a mystery to me and I didn't know it would leave four untagged people so we will not be using the Bracket Maker pairings.

A reminder that REPLAYS ARE REQUIRED FOR ALL MATCHES

The deadline for Round 1 Stage 1 is two weeks. Stage 2 will be one week, and every round after that will also be one week. Subs will be made at the end of the first week if you have not contacted your opponents. Either do it publicly through VMs or post “contacted” in the thread. If you privately schedule and don’t tell me, you risk being subbed out.

Reminder: You are playing a Standard LGPE OU Bo3 against each opponent.

Usage Stats coming soon!

My opponent havent answered me yet.
What should I do
Click to expand...
If you have contacted both of your opponents, then all you can do it wait at the moment. At 11:59 PM GMT-5 on Sunday February 7th I will be doing an activity sweep. You will either receive a new opponent(s), or you will keep the same opponent(s) and likely get an activity win(s).

While I'm here: If you privately schedule and don’t tell me, you risk being subbed out at the contact deadline.
