NeverUsed Champions League IV​

The most exciting tournament of the year is here! The hosts of this edition will be Tuthur, latias999999999, and myself, Phantomistix. The format of NUCL IV will be the same as last year:

Code:
SV 1
SV 2
Flex A1
Flex A2
Flex A3
Flex A4
Flex B1
Flex B2
Flex B3
Flex B4

As a reminder, Flex slots are 4 distinct tiers ranging from SS to RBY that are picked by each team every week. For example, Team A can select SS SM DPP GSC and Team B can select SM ORAS BW RBY; however, Team A can't pick SS SS ADV GSC.

If you are a returning manager, make sure to identify the team which you are reclaiming by the letter assigned to it. Returning managers will be given priority to reclaim their existing teams, but they may not take over a team that was not previously theirs.

Manager name:
Assistant manager: (if there's any)
Team name:
Returning manager:
Previous team:

Example:

Manager name: Tuthur
Assistant manager: Latias999999999
Team name: Tuthur999999999
Returning manager: Yes
Previous team: A

For new managers, the returning managers have priority to claim their previous teams, so when choosing a team to take over, try to choose one that will not be taken. Below are the list of teams, their assigned letter, and list of retains:
Manager name:
Assistant manager: (if there's any)
Team name:
Team preference 1:
Team preference 2:

example:

Manager name: Phantomistix
Assistant manager: N/A
Team name: Kilowattrel Haters
Team preference 1: B
Team preference 2: C

Last Years Teams (names can be changed, simply indicate which letter team you are requesting or returning to manage again)
Team A :ditto: Limber Ditto Lovers - Danny and Pokeslice
Team B :duraludon: Real Steel - Shengineer and loocas13
Team C :glastrier: Glacial Glastriers - Fc and tier

My co has managed tours of comparable level to this (pupl) and ive proven myself a consistent presence in NUs farm league as a manager as well as PUBD,PUCL,ADVltl, GSCPL
We complete eachother well in our understanding of nus tiers and i believe we can build a winning team.

Heads up, we'll be closing manager signups early, 24 hours from this post. If you wish to sign up, do it before then.

After some internal discussion, we've also decided to adjust the rules around Self-Buys and Retains to align more closely with NUPL. The new rules will be:
- If you'd like to retain a player, the price will be equal to their NUCL III price + 3k, with a minimum price of 10k;
- Managers can self buy one manager for 15k, or 40k for both.
- Only 3 retains allowed per team, with the first manager self buy counting towards this total.
- If managers elect to both self buy, they will NOT be able to retain any players.
- Each team will have 140k Credits to spend throughout the entire drafting process on 14 players (10 starters + 4 subs).
 
Manager name: bigolas222 / Jeza.p
Team name: :incineroar: The Attitude Adjusters :incineroar:

I have experience as a manager; I currently manage BSSCL II and OMCL II. As a player, I participated in BDSPPL V and SFL III, and I am currently competing in NDFL IV

Jez' has extensive experience managing across a wide range of team tournaments, including UUPL, UUCL, RUPL, ZUPL, UMPL, SMPL, UUWC, and many others, consistently leading teams to deep playoff runs. His management approach focuses on building strong rosters, developing players, maintaining a positive team environment, and bringing out the best in every lineup.

In terms of accomplishments, he has won UUFPL twice (2023 & 2025), NFE PL 2024, PPL 2025, Español PL 2024, Teamballo 2024, Chinese PL 2025, and Bangladesh PL 2025. Across different tiers, communities, and tournaments, he has consistently demonstrated his ability to build competitive teams and guide them toward success.

Regarding NU specifically, he has managed in NUFL, where his team reached the playoffs, and managed the French team in the NU World Cup.
 
Thank you everyone for your interest in managing NUPL XIV! The signups were quite competitive and I'm excited for the tournament!

Without further ado, the teams for NUCL IV will be:
