  • Managers are required to participate in the auction to draft their players.
  • People who are managing or playing in NDPL VII can manage in NDFL.
  • The budget of teams and amount of players is 140k with 14 players minimum until manager signups are closed.
    • There will be NO self-purchases in this tournament.
  • Managers must select their lineup for the week and send it to the hosts before the week starts; please make sure you send in lineups on time!
  • Managers are responsible for their team's behavior. Make sure members of your team are abiding by the rules and remain active.

Manager: WinstonByTheSea

Co-manager(s): Oculars and Runo

Team Name: Goob Nut Naclstack's :naclstack:

Accomplishments: Winston managed NDPL, (real ones remember the Stalwart Skarmories) NDCL, and NDWC previously on top of competing as a player in various editions of those tournaments, also played in various other PLs across the site and won RUPL as a player. Oculars has managed NDWC, NDPL, NDBD, NDCL, NDFL, and RCOP, winning NDFL the last time he managed and getting finals as ghost manager once as well. Runo used to run natdex and is a highly competent manager having managed all the major ND tours as well as playing in them.

Why would you be a good manager?: We have extensive managerial experience, especially within National Dex. We are highly familiar with all the various metagames that will be represented in this tournament having played and managed them since the very beginning of natdex. All 3 of us have worked together in the past and we provide our players a unique building perspective as we both have very different building styles to accomodate a variety of different players and preferences. Winston also pours over OU usage stats every week for in depth usage analysis posts (which will be returning), which indirectly gives me us a lot of information on the current metagame structures and scouting that our team can take advantage of. Runo fills out our knowledge with specialties in the lower tiers and ubers, and is being paid by Big Stall to be here.

:Slither Wing: Team Name: Slither Wing Slingers :Slither Wing:

Manager: Ursaluna :Ursaluna-Bloodmoon:

Assistant Manager(s) (if applicable): ChilliDewd :Scovillain-Mega: and Vlarcheops :Zamazenta:

List of Accomplishments: I (Vlarchoeps) went for last NDPL and had a decen record in 2-1, participated in NDCL and brought some victories for my winning team (outside of tiers of NDOU). During my time i n these tournaments, I helped out a lot for my team via teambuilding or testing. I am also very involved in the NDOU metagame in general. Ursauna's background is that she's an NDUU council member and recently drafted for NDPL and she's very familiar with lower tiers (mostly NDUU, but i know a bit about RU as well, mainly good players). Just like me, ChilliDewd also has experience in the NDOU metagame given he has placed top 50 on NDOU ladder several time and is also a huge helper in general. ChilliDewd also took part in some important ND tourneys, including ND Last Chance 2025, and NDFL 2024. ChilliDewd also has won games in rournaments reguarding SSNDOU, so he has aknowledge in this tier as well!

Why would you make a Good Manager?: We'll always make sure that our players will get an amazing experiece when they are going to play for us in NDFL, we'll help them to test and create teams to victory. We also emphasize big experience in the tiers (ChilliDewd and I in NDOU and Ursaluna in NDUU and NDRU) and we are mostly always active to help around people to get what then need (feedback, help or testing).
