Rules & Tournament Format

General Tournament Rules

  • This is a standard SV DOU tournament.
  • OSDT V will be a swiss tournament with a top cut of 16.
    • Players will be automatically dropped when they hit three losses as they are no longer in contention for top cut.
    • Players will be assigned a random opponent out of the pool of players with the same record as you each round.
  • Rounds will be Best of Three. You may switch teams in between battles of the same set.
  • Matches are to be played on Pokemon Showdown!. If you can't agree on which server to play on, the Smogtours server is the default option.
  • Replays are required and must be posted every round.
  • There are no extensions, so please get your games done on time.
  • Your hosts are TPP, a fairy, FayaWizard and Dead by Daylight
Activity Decisions / Coin Flips: In the event that there is an uncompleted match at the deadline, it will be coin flipped unless one or both of the players involved in the match specifically request an activity win and explain sufficiently why they deserve to win over their opponent. Attempting to schedule a battle is required in order to receive the win by activity. To make it clear that you are requesting an activity win when you post, you must open your post with "Activity Win Request" in bold.

For example, if you believe your opponent is making an unfair request and that they don't deserve the activity win over you, you can either make your own request or quote their post and explain why they don't deserve it. You should try to make your activity win request posts at least 24 hours before the deadline to give your opponent a reasonable opportunity to contest it with their own activity win request.

In case of disconnections, if you played in the SmogTours server, call a Tournament Director as soon as possible and we'll see about the possibility of having a rematch.

Prize

Courtesy of the Pokemon Showdown! Upper Staff, in addition to the trophy, the winner of OSDT V will win an additional prize. The winner will have a choice of receiving a Custom Avatar or reclaiming an inactive username on Pokemon Showdown!, with the runner-up receiving the option not chosen by the winner.

SeaLife vs bagel

Okay, there's no one else I can predict now.
I still remember my first tour at smogon was NDDLT with bagel. Now, in the final of osdt, I once again met bagel, which was a fateful coincidence.
bagel is my first opponent in smogon and also my final boss in OSDT, which looks very interesting, doesn't it.

sealife vs bagel

Since it has come to this, I have no choice but to support Sealife in achieving final victory.

"The wicked dou fluke player Sealife stumbles into playoffs."
"Zero-mechanics player Sealife somehow makes Top 8."
"Sealife marches on to the Top 4!"
"Sealife, CN PM's new phenom, charges toward the grand finals!"
"The great new Emperor of dou stands ready to claim his throne!"
 
When I was 15, in 2023, I unfortunately won the OSDT runner-up.
Now that you're 16, in 2025, a year older than I was then, as my favorite student, SeaLife, win the OSDT championship!

Match me, your teacher, and then surpass me, you, the next Chinese child prodigy, the strongest cndou! Come on!

SeaLife 敢许少年凌云志,只争人间第一流!!!
