• Follow all rules listed here.
• Schedule via Smogon VMs. It's easier for us 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. Managers, please ping the opposing team's pingable role to inform them.
• 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, but they also contribute to usage stats and allow the people who couldn't watch the games live to watch them later.

IRIS PREDICTIONSSS


Subspace Porygons (5) vs (3) Victory Road Victinis
SV: cpt.kraken vs Fusien - Fusien in any Monotype tournament finds a way to bring some lesser used value in good types and break through the fight for a good win.
SV: TheWyvernKing vs Rinda - I honestly can not depict on either player. Both are great players and have a plethora of team building creativity with great metagame knowledge.
SV: King Choco vs Rio Vidal - Choco ily but Rio is my diva until I retire
SV: Ringmaster Uta vs Xiri - Same as TWK vs Rinda, both players are good with their respected playstyles and teambuilding creativity. Looking to see a fun game here.
SS: Sagazinha vs MichaelderBeste2 - Michaelder is a very good ORAS clicker.
SM: Showl vs Eternal Spirit - Showl has proved he is a very strong SM clicker.
ORAS: Ineros vs 1 True Lycan - When in doubt, always vote for Ineros. <3
BW: Trouser Snakes vs nomadderwhat - Gotta support my US South brother through the infamous BW meta.
NatDex: TTK vs Fixzation - Strong slot for Natdex, very good clicker and team builder.
Monothreat: Gelbel3c vs Ewin - MY goat will prevail!

I Could Be Bellibolts (2) vs (6) Mudae Mudbrays
SV: Azick vs Fraolain - Azick starting versus Frol is going to be a fun match to watch, phenomenal clickers the both but I see this more in Azick's favor at least until the matchup is presented.
SV: clean vs Dieu Amphibien - This was tricky, but then again it's Dieu Amphibien and his progress made since last MWP. Hoping to see a clean x-0 score by finals.
SV: hellom vs mind gaming - My favorite clicker, win
SV: Neko vs Fogbound Lake - Another fun fighter to watch load the most heinous teams and still secure a win.
SS: Hacker vs Gondra - Gotta rep my US South brother
SM: emforbes vs Dj Breloominati♬ - Spitfire will be winning so help me GOD.
ORAS: zS vs NoName6293 - A bit unfamiliar with both players so I will hold it up to the matchup god's before them and enjoy watching this set.
BW: tier vs QWILY
NatDex: The Strap vs Rowlet69420
Monothreat: Xrn vs AgencyIsOwn

Seafolk City Spirits (2) vs (6) Northern Veils
SV: Scarfire vs Chaitanya - This may be in Chait's favor.
SV: LBN vs Tarre25 - I can't decide on either player, both are strong in the SV metagame.
SV: Axzel vs twinkay - Great clicker with great teams.
SV: crow crumbs vs Vodoom - Couldn't decide but I always support Vodoom.
SS: Stareal vs Tenebricite - Supporting my US South brother!
SM: Larry vs Sabella - Couldn't decide on either but this will surely be a fun set for the week!
ORAS: DugZa vs feen - Even though D*gza is mean a lot of the time, I expect a win. If not clown on them in the server!
BW: avarice vs DAHLI - I'd be stupid to not automatically vote for DAHLI!
NatDex: sealoo vs Leroipolux - Sealoo forever holds the crown for Natdex matchups.
Monothreat: TKC vs zugubu royale - Now you better win this

Corviknights of the Round Table (3) vs (4) Mt. Battle Minuns
SV: Wincon vs Masskeau - Both great clickers, teambuilders, and overall strong SV slots. I can't decide which one I see will prevail over the other.
SV: Shucklegigas vs Shiba - even though you are a nerd, I will support you every single week unless you lose then im voting against you.
SV: MemphisDepay vs yedla - Amazing player from the many matches I have seen them play.
SV: LoSconosciuto vs RoyalReloaded - Ngl I only have seen Losco play SS, and Royal is strong in the current metagame. Sorry I just couldn't decide. Hoping for a fun match here.
SS: TJ vs Cielau - Cielau ORIGINEEE.
SM: terrors vs adjustments - My goat will prevail and not be terrorized by SM water stall!
ORAS: Bitana vs crash - Repping my US South brethren.
BW: Meta vs PandaDoux - Now this one too was tricky as I know Panda is a very good oldgens player, unsure of Meta a bit but I want some creativity here.
NatDex: Sunnyboi0 vs ChrisPBacon - Sunny is such an amazing Natdex player.
Monothreat: Jolly Togekiss vs ikiarihS - I love Jolly Togekiss too much to not vote for them


Okay good luck!

okk trying to do a full tour of predicts but i end up lazing out by week 3

Subspace Porygons (3) vs (7) Victory Road Victinis
SV: cpt.kraken vs Fusien - azizam :hearteyescat: (ok sry im glazing but he farmed mpl and is sheist otherwise)
SV: TheWyvernKing vs Rinda - Haven't seen TWK play in a while I think......? But he obviously keeps up with SV anyway. Favoring rinda just cuz recency bias
SV: King Choco vs Rio Vidal - Choco is relatively quiet in the community but always pops up every year like the grim reaper
SV: Ringmaster Uta vs Xiri - Xiri is used to playing mono tours, iirc this is Uta's first(?) or one of his first "official" mono tt games, think Xiri is more acclimated
SS: Sagazinha vs MichaelderBeste2 - like. what do i say. idk. both people i haven't seen play ss but one of them is mdb2. but then also its monotype so anyone can win.
SM: Showl vs Eternal Spirit - Showl farmed in MFPL and from purely a prep perspective I'd favor Showl but gama is still better in game and I'd project him to do pretty well in this tour if he plays more than 3 games LOL
ORAS: Ineros vs 1 True Lycan - Insanely tough pull for my boy Ineros.
BW: Trouser Snakes vs nomadderwhat - If he doesn't bring Ice i'd favor him
NatDex: TTK vs Fixzation - Both are fine players but I think Fix is more consistent
Monothreat: Gelbel3c vs Ewin - Very interesting to see ewin in monotype...and threat...ig both players are good at draft (I know gelbel is, can't remember if ewin actually plays draft or if im making it up) so lowkey this is a heater mu LOWKEY highlight of the week

I Could Be Bellibolts (4) vs (6) Mudae Mudbrays LOLLLLLLLLLLL @ this mu week 1
SV: Azick vs Fraolain - Just don't load some ass and you'll win azick. However, you will load ass. Go fraolain
SV: clean vs Dieu Amphibien - LMAO
SV: hellom vs mind gaming - I hope hellom wins but I don't favor him in his first(?) SV mono game vs mind.
SV: Neko vs Fogbound Lake - I think fog is better solely on the purpose Neko doesn't have much confidence. If she's able to get rid of that mindset one day she'd be a fire tour player, I think she has it in her to win any game really...but regardless Fog is prob better sry.

tbh this series is gonna be swung super hard depending on who wins in SV cuz theres no way my predicts are gonna be all correct here

SS: Hacker vs Gondra - I created his Monotype career, and Gondra will end it
SM: emforbes vs Dj Breloominati♬ - west best but dj is actually p motivated in mono tours
ORAS: zS vs NoName6293 - NoName seemed fine when I drafted him last year for this tour (those who know) but zS has really good support and I'll favor that since it's not hard to be a monotype clicker
BW: tier vs QWILY - Zayum! Tieracid playing again! Seems p even but I think(?) tier has more exp in BW Mono and that does help. Tbf QWILY has been around in Mono for a while atp and was surpried to not see him in SV (:dollar sign: :wrench:)
NatDex: The Strap vs Rowlet69420 - Yea ight
Monothreat: Xrn vs AgencyIsOwn - Mada told me this guy is a THREAT. pun not intended, Xrn can prob chef it up tho.

Corviknights of the Round Table (5) vs (5) Mt. Battle Minuns
SV: Wincon vs Masskeau - Wincon's comeback has been great to see but I've been watching Masskeau play atp for like ~2 years and he is fire
SV: Shucklegigas vs Shiba - Shiba is pretending hes good again....maybe he has a reason?
SV: MemphisDepay vs yedla - Both are good, pretty even I'd say? I'll inch yedla cuz he's a more active mainer but Memphis is shiest
SV: LoSconosciuto vs RoyalReloaded - Royal has been relatively hit or miss in a lot of tours while LoSco has been relatively fine while playing SS and I think the transition to SV won't be hard at all
SS: TJ vs Cielau - Ik JT isn't a manager here but he's still on the team, and TJ tends to perform well with that prep.
SM: terrors vs adjustments - terrors will capitalize on any mistake made, and while I want adjustments to win, he rolled a tough oppo W1 but if there's a time to prove he can play with the SM pool it's probably now
ORAS: Bitana vs crash - Um....wildcard! Not sure who to predict but I'll give it to crashy bc recency bias
BW: Meta vs PandaDoux - I think its awesome to see a newer mono user play oldgens, but Meta is unfortunately himothy
NatDex: Sunnyboi0 vs ChrisPBacon - ND meta is skull and kinda does favor mainers but I hope Chris likes his stay in Monotype! But also I think he can farm this pool if his managers are quick in catching him up to speed.
Monothreat: Jolly Togekiss vs ikiarihS - what is a polar bear doing in arlington texas bro
