After 2 months, our annual old gen cups have finished and we're left with the top performing players of the circuit. This year, only the top eight seeds will be qualifying for playoffs, therefore we'll be having a round robin tiebreaker for the final two spots. The first six players on this spreadsheet have already qualified for playoffs, and do not have to take part in this tiebreaker. That leaves everyone that ended with eight points; Cdumas, Dundies, Finchinator, Lycans, King Wynaut, and Ren-Chon. They'll be put into two round robin groups and only one winner will come out of each group to round out our top 8 playoffs participants.
You can find information and resources related to NU old gens in the NU Old Gens Hub, and more information about the overall format and general information about the NU Classic here.
Rules:
- General Tournament Rules: http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/tournament-rules-and-general-guidelines.3538684/
- This will be a single elimination, best of three tournament.
- You must play on Pokemon Showdown.
- ADV NU games must be played in the gen3uu format. All other formats must be played in their respective formats (gen6nu, gen5nu, and gen4nu)
- Replays are not required, but I would appreciate you sharing them anyways for the sake of re-establishing the legacy of these metagames.
- As there is no seeding for this playoffs tiebreaker, the player to the left of the matchup will pick one gen to eliminate and must let their opponent know in their initial scheduling VM. (For example, in the matchup "Dundies vs KW", Dundies would pick the gen to eliminate. However in the matchup "KW vs Lycans", KW would pick the gen to strike out.)
Matches:
Group 1:
Dundies vs KW
KW vs Lycans
Lycans vs Dundies
Group 2:
Finchinator vs Cdumas
Cdumas vs Ren-chon
Ren-chon vs Finchinator
Deadline: Wednesday, August 29th, 11:59 PM EST (GMT -5) (If all games are completed and there's no winner then we restart the process)
(Please try and get these games done ASAP so we can move into the actual playoffs)
