Tournaments ORAS Invitational V - Commencement & Admin Decisions

[Ruffles]

ORAS Invitational V
hosted by Ruffles, Paprikaflow, MrAldo, Regiboob, and c0mp ​

The prestigious ORAS OU tournament of the year is back; an invitational featuring the best performing ORAS OU players of the past year battling it out for the win. This year's format will return to being exclusive, with only 48 total players invited. The winner of this tour will get the invitational trophy

in the ORAS Hall of Fame.

This year, the tournament will feature 30 players in main, and 16 players in playins, 2 of them heading to mains.

Tournament Rules

- This is a standard ORAS OU tournament.
- This tournament will be Double Elimination. 32 players, 10 Rounds. Both the Main Event and Play-ins are invite-only.
- All matches are ORAS OU bo3 until Round 8 (top 4), at which point all subsequent matches are bo5.
- Replays are mandatory for all games at every stage of both tournaments.
- Extensions are only given in exceptional cases and need to be applied beforehand. The hosts may refuse any extension request.
- General tournament rules apply

- The main event will take over 2 months to complete. This is a hefty time and effort commitment. Make sure you can commit to playing the entire tournament until the end before accepting the invitation.
- This is a serious, competitive, invite-only ORAS OU Tournament. Effort, serious teams and Pokemon, and not forfeiting games/sets for no valid reason are expected of all players. We reserve the right to disqualify anyone from breaking this rule.
- We will favor extensions over act wins
- If potential dropouts happen, we will be choosing from pre-selected player pool to slot in, instead of letting the other player go
