PTPL VIII - Commencement Thread

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hora de eulogias e sim eu estou copiando o shake que faz pra SCL mas vou fazer pra um tour que é logicamente de maior expressão e a primeira eulogia é prazeroso demais de poder fazer porque todo mundo queria esse time se fudendo + meu time não é o primeiro eliminado.

1000242379.jpg


O que você consegue juntando um time com alt de banido e seu amigo racistazinho? Justiça. O time já aparentou ter implodido week 2 quando o Saint foi revelado ser alt do Beleth, e pra falar a verdade sendo ou não alt o time no papel parecia bem ruim como eu já havia pontuado nos meus PRs, pouquíssimos slots consolidados e sem muita esperança vindo do banco também. O Ash foi um selfbuy que resolveu jogar 2 weeks, provavelmente prepou com o rabo, mamou e se ausentou do tour sendo um gigantesco déficit pro time que perdeu 20k em tal slot, outra grande performance ruim do time foi do slot de LC sasori, um player que tem um histórico excelente em PTPLs mas dessa vez foi dilacerado pela pool. Fora isso ocorreu mais ou menos como esperado, como mipc e 8truc (baita steal btw) carregando, Lsa, Mafrazinho e Clem afundando, em especial o Clem pela intada absurda no jogo que eliminou o próprio time. Lydian e Minatevis performaram melhor que o esperado considerando as pools deles, o que poderia ter ajudado dado o lydian ser uma promessa apenas e o Minatevis ter jogado 20k nele mesmo. Eu tenho certeza que o Gama cagou pro torneio como capitão e posteriormente o Ash deve ter feito o mesmo, o time ficou largado às traças bem rápido e essa eliminação estava destinada.

Tldr:
-Mipc e 8truc eram os únicos slots seguros do time, restante do time precisava surpreender e acabaram afundando
-Péssimos selfbuys
-Compra os amiguinhos racistinhas aí compra kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
-Time provavelmente pouco motivado dado múltiplos eventos
 
Obrigado pelo tour donphans, perdao se eu n fiz suficiente. Eu dei meu melhor. Eu gostava de fazer meu postzinho de shoutouts, mesmo perdendo o torneio. Foi um bom tour. Obrigado a todos.

Msousa eu prometi-te que iamos managear juntos este ano. Ambos cumprimos essa promessa. Podemos ter perdido, mas pelo menos poffs fizemos e eu tenho 0 arrependimentos quanto a nossa auction. Obriago pelo tour irmão, e foi triste que tenhas ficado sem pc durante boa parte dele. N vou olhar ao teu score, tu sabes mt bem o que penso de ti como player e isto não muda nada

leoperi obrigado por aceitar ser nosso terceiro comanager. Vc n foi o mais ativo, mas era o esperado e foi uma boa presenca no chat e boa escolha de comanager.

LB wish you were in a better mental state for this tour my brother. I knew i wanted a repeat of our PTSL SV OU core, i knew you guys would cook. Unfortunately, didnt work quite the same way, but thats alright. not all decisions can be successful. wish you the best of luck for OLT friend, go beat them.

Calmmind75 obrigado por manter meu mental são durante o tour e pela performance amigo.

Vc eh um player fenomenal e amigo melhor ainda, uma honra jogar a seu lado

Kyogrus24 the vgc goat. I knew i could always count on you to get a win when it mattered and it is not a coincidence our VGC slot was our most positive one over the tour in general.

(brincadeiras a parte, obrigado por jogar mesmo com o irl na merda praticamente o tour inteiro,3k hxmo foi um roubo e eh pena q n deu pra mostrar isso tao bem como deveria)

Wincon i got absolutely enamored witht he way you prep for mono for the entire tour, sad that the results didnt reflect the effort you were putting in, even if themselves werent bad at all. Youre a very good player and it was a pleasure getting to know you

Ikaishi nothing more to say than that im happy i drafted the best SS OU player in the tour. You werent the most active, but i knew i could trust you to put in the performance id expect from a name such as yours. Hope you liked tagging along for the ride and good luck with future yours, youre a stellar player really

tokyo prison ty for your performance, you almost gave me multiple heart attacks during the tour but you also won when we needed you to the most and thats all we could ask. Was an honor playing with you

Fdmw sry for benching you the entire season, really only drafted you because undrafted kyrius is absolutely criminal, and its unfortunate you had to land on the team with ikaishi in the one slot you wanted

PixelBob you really cant catch a break uh. the luck on your games was just ass man, wish you coulve shown more of how good of a player you are, but ty for playing for us, always nice to team up with a friend

4tup desculpa ter tido de te dar sellback, esperava poder mostrar ao mundo outra vez o teu nivel como jogador, mas a vida tinha outros planos para ti

Proszz desculpa n te draftar inicialmente, e obrigado pro teres dado o teu maximo para ajudar a team quando te juntaste a noz, fizeste uam diferenca enorme mesmo que tenhas benchado praticamente a season toda

No mais, eh isso ai msm, obrigado pela season Donphans, perdao por n vos levar ao topo.

If you are reading this, im asuming you care enough about me to care about reading what im asuming is a wall of rambling, semi-coherent text about personal stuff that does not pertain to the tournament at all. I will be writing this in english, since its more accessible for the people i want to read it, se você não entende inglês, perdão, por favor usa o tradutor. I have been playing this game for what amounts to about 3 years by this point, and while i expected it to last longer, i feel this is the final stop. As many of you might know, I have planned to retire from the game for a while, in particular my tipping point was the UCL auction, whicxh is a hella silly tipping point if i am to be completely honest. Truthfully, i feel i have done all i need to do in this community, with some notable exceptions. I also feel that i both have not been having fun with the game and it has been overall negative to my mental health. As such, you may take this as my personal retirement post from mons. This has nothing to do with losing or winning PTPL, as the people that are aware as more than a passing thing are aware, i have always planned to retire after this tournament. This is, to be clear, not my final tournament, however, the ones i will play from now on are very specific: DNUPL, if that happens, is one i want to manage with Zpice. WCoP 2027, if team Portugal wants me back and hasnt moved on from me by then, i wish to play/manage in. I obviously plan to finish RCoP and BOUPL, and if Purbaj still wants to take my promisse up we can manage a tour together, i hate breaking promisses like that. But thats it. No more mons after, during or before this point. after wcop 27, i should fully vanish from the game, at most stay around talking with friends and occasionally ladder. This isnt a spurt of the moment decision, this has been planned for months now. With all of that said, i think i woudl do my friends a disservice by not saying goodbye. I will do it in a sort of "era" thing. so here it comes. Thank you all, first off, for havig accompanied me on this journey, you truly are fantastic.

I must start with 35 really was my first home in this community, people like NotGerald and Ryu09 helped me feel welcome and feel part of something new and exciting. I had some fun running stuff with Ember Celica aswell, even if we arent on the best of terms now, thank you for the ride. Ive made friends for life there, be it my pt speaking friend eambplsl, the great oct gang of bigshoota and Riki/Poisany or the ones that came after, like @carnivore05, Maszt, BellUno, MamboTND, presi, mmtaccos, Bizounounours, Laviecestdure, terribleplayer17 and so, so many more. I must also bring up my great time in PDL, with amazing folk such as reality, @azurious StanTerhoeve28 and 7ayakum. It truly was a different time, less smogon politics bs, less stakes, less having to care about cheaters unless they were that one who was cheating on their gf, i had no idea what was to come.

It is here i start branching out, and really i only got anywhere due to team pt. In particular, i gotta thank Ulti Bastion, Frixel, sayyonara, Hueco, Bdd, Minatevis, I Feel Stabby, BAGANHA13 and BannedList for being generally awesome people (well except for yato, hes more fun). I must also mention the [REDACTED]cord, where ive made so many lifelong friends, like qbking3, OceanicGamer, FishyRoads and IncredibleKing who i absolutely love nowadays. By this time, i still had no clear path, I stumbled around looking for my place. With that, i landed in the PTPL chat, and started slowly pushing myself into stuff and making my mark, meeting people like Astarion, NaokiSeven, Sr. Regigigas and Leafium Z, being also the time when landoheimer died and got replaced by Nasir, you can blame Envy for that , going even into evopl soon after, where i made great friends like my brother beto cachinhos, Miraiii, Coffy and my formerly great friend ExguardiaN who, despite me being on bad terms with now, is someone id creditwith much of my development in this community for a while. It is also when i get dragged into the more raw side of the speaker community, with the smaller players and stuff. AstradiaPL was that experience for me, where id get closer with KniY, Cyrakii, Cloudznn, angolano06, glowbrogang, kimer and many more people id consider legitimate friends nowadays.

I think id only get a clear path during UUFPL, where i helped what would become some of my favourite people on the site. haxlolo, jawabarat, igiveuponaname, Maris Bonibelle and amny others who made up the battlegirls really gave me a way foward into the world of smogon and expanded my horizons. Id play then in ORAS Under right after, something i have to thank my great friend CarTulo for allowing em to do. I think its here i create my own character, separate from 35, or the sub 9 which i have no reason outside of abra xdd (s/o abrinha) to mention. I would play in many other tournaments after, but nothing of note except that i would keep growing my name. NasirPL was a thing that happened and thats all i can say about it. At this point, i feel like i was just a silently consistent player whenever i played, nothing more.

the end of 25 and start of 26 feels like a breath of fresh air, with me meeting so many people and joining so many new cool jerks. cugang, with my goats 4tup ZombieEyeZ im_m0rtal. Incognition Cluelessmagnet Proszz Regiboob and so many others, not to speak of a great PTSL win along side many of the people mentioned above in the PTPL section, with some aditions like berna-, luuanfps, Staraptor and lighthouses (+ Liemaster) that really reinforced my love for management, and was overall one of the most fun tours ive played in a while (not so subtle hint for yall MyPearl Grillo). This comes after a devastating PTPL, where people like GUZOT, DD Joe, Hats and EmbCPT were a silver lining in a pretty negative tournament when it comes to a pretty devastating tour run. Housewifes is also relevant, my second home in this community, with Poli, sheepie, sychillz, Dead by Daylight, Soda Eesti Aurist, Theycallmephil and even people like my bro Mok3s and so, so many more amazing people i love dearly. That to not speak of the many smaller communities ive joined, making tight friends as a result like SouCarlos, Luisa, PixelBob or my student kauez a bit later

This is where my story is thus far. Everyone ive mentioned above had an insanely big impact on my life and is someone i can consider to have been a good friend. This is not even an exhaustive list, making one of those without looking at everyone ive ever interacted with is a herculean task i am not ready for. While people like notlena and Sparkelz have also entered my life and are relevant, for example, i just cant mention everyone. However, for some of you that know me best, know some people are missing weirdly, as they are some of the people i cherish the most and have been the closest with in these last 3 years. even if people above play an important part on who i became, none of them are these 4 below, no amtter how much love i have for people like ocean, purbaj, lolo, jawa or tup.

Msousa ive called you my brother in the mons community enough times by now for it to not be a joke. you have always been my rock and closest friend, be it in the old days of making wigglytuff sun in march24, up to managing PTPL with me. You know me better than anyone else and i dont think i need to tell anyone this but you. Ly sousa, never change, keep being the amazing friend you have been, you are and always will be. If theres anyone i know i can have long technical talks with, i know its you, and theres only one person i know calls out my bs when i need it xd

Finchely fin the lee, finnicky, friendly, finnish lee, or simply finchy. You make sure my mind is sane every time, laugh with me, cry with me and have always comemorated my accomplishment like no one else. Youre my sister in this mons community, we might play fight everywhere and be silly, but at the end of the day we care for each other and theres nothing that makes me happier than see that youre well. ly finchy, keep being the you we all know and love.

Zpice you knew your mention was coming. It was hard not mentioning you witht he battlegirls, or the housewifes, or how youre pretty much the reason why i held on for so long in this community. You believed in me when no one else did. You saw the spark i was missing, and worked with me to become the best version of myself i ever could be. Youre one of the most trustworthy people i know, and one of the people i have the most gratitude for in my entire life. Thank you for all youve ever done for me, and for being a fucking awesome friend who i can always rely on

Calmmind75 s/o McBruh for presenting to me what is one of the most lively people i know, a great friend with a good heart and a very fun personality, who i know i can have both deep convos with and just have fun and chill, depending on what its needed. Someone i know will accept any cool idea i have, go for the silly route every time and be the absolute best bro ever. Ty for sticking around calm,a nd your future in this game will shine brighter than what people might think right now

Vii-samba obligatory vii ping, ty girl for always making sure my mind is in check and putting up with my mons bs while giving me awesome advice, youre a real one

Ty for reading this semi-coherent ramble yall, Nasir signing out, if youre still reading here, go play 35 oct-b or something, meta is fucking sweet

Youre my sister in this mons community, we might play fight everywhere and be silly, but at the end of the day we care for each other and theres nothing that makes me happier than see that youre well. ly finchy, keep being the you we all know and love.

Zpice you knew your mention was coming. It was hard not mentioning you witht he battlegirls, or the housewifes, or how youre pretty much the reason why i held on for so long in this community. You believed in me when no one else did. You saw the spark i was missing, and worked with me to become the best version of myself i ever could be. Youre one of the most trustworthy people i know, and one of the people i have the most gratitude for in my entire life. Thank you for all youve ever done for me, and for being a fucking awesome friend who i can always rely on

Calmmind75 s/o McBruh for presenting to me what is one of the most lively people i know, a great friend with a good heart and a very fun personality, who i know i can have both deep convos with and just have fun and chill, depending on what its needed. Someone i know will accept any cool idea i have, go for the silly route every time and be the absolute best bro ever. Ty for sticking around calm,a nd your future in this game will shine brighter than what people might think right now

Vii-samba obligatory vii ping, ty girl for always making sure my mind is in check and putting up with my mons bs while giving me awesome advice, youre a real one

Ty for reading this semi-coherent ramble yall, Nasir signing out, if youre still reading here, go play 35 oct-b or something, meta is fucking sweet

Obrigado pelo tour donphans, perdao se eu n fiz suficiente. Eu dei meu melhor. Eu gostava de fazer meu postzinho de shoutouts, mesmo perdendo o torneio. Foi um bom tour. Obrigado a todos.

Msousa eu prometi-te que iamos managear juntos este ano. Ambos cumprimos essa promessa. Podemos ter perdido, mas pelo menos poffs fizemos e eu tenho 0 arrependimentos quanto a nossa auction. Obriago pelo tour irmão, e foi triste que tenhas ficado sem pc durante boa parte dele. N vou olhar ao teu score, tu sabes mt bem o que penso de ti como player e isto não muda nada

leoperi obrigado por aceitar ser nosso terceiro comanager. Vc n foi o mais ativo, mas era o esperado e foi uma boa presenca no chat e boa escolha de comanager.

purbaj thank you my friend for all the help behind the scenes. Couldnt have made it so far without you, and im sorry it didnt lead to a victory. Hope you have a great scl though, amazing and super proud to see you there. If you need anything of me, you know you have my dms open for you always. Also great recommendation in me empty

wssi vlw pela ajuda geral na prep. Perdao ter tido de te subbar. mas sua prep, por mais que tenha todo o meme, foi genuinamente valiosa e o um dos motivos pelo qual chegamos onde chegamos, principalmente in lt's

LB wish you were in a better mental state for this tour my brother. I knew i wanted a repeat of our PTSL SV OU core, i knew you guys would cook. Unfortunately, didnt work quite the same way, but thats alright. not all decisions can be successful. wish you the best of luck for OLT friend, go beat them.

Calmmind75 obrigado por manter meu mental são durante o tour e pela performance amigo. Eu sabia que tinha que te comprar e que me traria resultados. infelizmente n te dei a PTPL, mas vc vai chegar bem mais longe do que esse torneio. Vc eh um player fenomenal e amigo melhor ainda, uma honra jogar a seu lado

Kyogrus24 the vgc goat. I knew i could always count on you to get a win when it mattered and it is not a coincidence our VGC slot was our most positive one over the tour in general. I didnt know you before this, but i can confidently say youre an amazing player who will do everything in his power to win, all the while maintaining an amazing chat atmosphere. Thank you for tagging along on the journey, all the success to you in your future endeavors friend

HardFreaQ desculpa ter de te benchar quase a season toda amigo, mas espero, e parece-me, que te tenhas divertido. Obg por te teres inscrevido quando te pedi, ver tu e o kyogrus a trabalharem juntos tao bem foi algo maravilhoso e hey, 2-0 fica bonito. Boa sorte pros proximos tours e vida pessoal mano, foi um prazer jogar contigo, otimas vibes e otima gameplay

haxlolo dont beat yourself up over your performance in the later weeks, everyone can go through bad gameplay patches, happens. Ty for playing with us, my twin, it was amazing teaming up with you in this tour and i hope youloved being in it as much as we loved having you. Unfortunately, you didnt get your so deserved x-0

toinha wssi preps. Simplesmente o homem em SV RU. PRa setimo melhor da pool, acho q fizemos a escolha certa. N deixe se abater pela derrota final, todos temos games ruins ate soulwind chokou game decisivo wcop- e tudo q vc fez pelo time vale mais doq uma simples loss. Obrigado por nos acompanhar e por ser esse player e pessoa foda q vc eh

5MGMatthew5 my friend, i knew i needed you tos tart in NU here, no matter what people thought. It was amazing teaming up with you matt, and i hope you had fun and are happy with your season, it was an amazing one to follow. Gl in future endeavors

Me Empty ty purbaj for recommending me the PU goat. Unfort your result didnt follow your skill or tier knowledge, but i hope you liked tagging along for the ride

KniY na boa, vc foi meu mental check o tour inteiro. Vlw por estar nas minhas dms me escutando lentamente quebrando qnd o time parecia desmoronar, ajuda mt mais doq parece. N me arrependo nem um pouco de te comprar, e perdao n ter podido te slottar tirando em fodendo sv ou

Fernanch bem, n foi vc chokando a semis dessa vez. Brincadeiras a parte, definitivamente um dos players dos donphans que eu mais queria de volta, acredito mt noq vejo de vc como player e espero ver cada vez mais. Um prazer jogar c vc dnv

hxmo View attachment 856172 (brincadeiras a parte, obrigado por jogar mesmo com o irl na merda praticamente o tour inteiro,3k hxmo foi um roubo e eh pena q n deu pra mostrar isso tao bem como deveria)

Wincon i got absolutely enamored witht he way you prep for mono for the entire tour, sad that the results didnt reflect the effort you were putting in, even if themselves werent bad at all. Youre a very good player and it was a pleasure getting to know you

Ikaishi nothing more to say than that im happy i drafted the best SS OU player in the tour. You werent the most active, but i knew i could trust you to put in the performance id expect from a name such as yours. Hope you liked tagging along for the ride and good luck with future yours, youre a stellar player really

tokyo prison ty for your performance, you almost gave me multiple heart attacks during the tour but you also won when we needed you to the most and thats all we could ask. Was an honor playing with you

Fdmw sry for benching you the entire season, really only drafted you because undrafted kyrius is absolutely criminal, and its unfortunate you had to land on the team with ikaishi in the one slot you wanted

PixelBob you really cant catch a break uh. the luck on your games was just ass man, wish you coulve shown more of how good of a player you are, but ty for playing for us, always nice to team up with a friend

4tup desculpa ter tido de te dar sellback, esperava poder mostrar ao mundo outra vez o teu nivel como jogador, mas a vida tinha outros planos para ti

If you are reading this, im asuming you care enough about me to care about reading what im asuming is a wall of rambling, semi-coherent text about personal stuff that does not pertain to the tournament at all. I will be writing this in english, since its more accessible for the people i want to read it, se você não entende inglês, perdão, por favor usa o tradutor. I have been playing this game for what amounts to about 3 years by this point, and while i expected it to last longer, i feel this is the final stop. As many of you might know, I have planned to retire from the game for a while, in particular my tipping point was the UCL auction, whicxh is a hella silly tipping point if i am to be completely honest. Truthfully, i feel i have done all i need to do in this community, with some notable exceptions. I also feel that i both have not been having fun with the game and it has been overall negative to my mental health. As such, you may take this as my personal retirement post from mons. This has nothing to do with losing or winning PTPL, as the people that are aware as more than a passing thing are aware, i have always planned to retire after this tournament. This is, to be clear, not my final tournament, however, the ones i will play from now on are very specific: DNUPL, if that happens, is one i want to manage with Zpice. WCoP 2027, if team Portugal wants me back and hasnt moved on from me by then, i wish to play/manage in. I obviously plan to finish RCoP and BOUPL, and if Purbaj still wants to take my promisse up we can manage a tour together, i hate breaking promisses like that. But thats it. No more mons after, during or before this point. after wcop 27, i should fully vanish from the game, at most stay around talking with friends and occasionally ladder. This isnt a spurt of the moment decision, this has been planned for months now. With all of that said, i think i woudl do my friends a disservice by not saying goodbye. I will do it in a sort of "era" thing. so here it comes. Thank you all, first off, for havig accompanied me on this journey, you truly are fantastic.

I must start with 35 really was my first home in this community, people like NotGerald and Ryu09 helped me feel welcome and feel part of something new and exciting. I had some fun running stuff with Ember Celica aswell, even if we arent on the best of terms now, thank you for the ride. Ive made friends for life there, be it my pt speaking friend eambplsl, the great oct gang of bigshoota and Riki/Poisany or the ones that came after, like @carnivore05, Maszt, BellUno, MamboTND, presi, mmtaccos, Bizounounours, Laviecestdure, terribleplayer17 and so, so many more. I must also bring up my great time in PDL, with amazing folk such as reality, @azurious StanTerhoeve28 and 7ayakum. It truly was a different time, less smogon politics bs, less stakes, less having to care about cheaters unless they were that one who was cheating on their gf, i had no idea what was to come.

It is here i start branching out, and really i only got anywhere due to team pt. In particular, i gotta thank Ulti Bastion, Frixel, sayyonara, Hueco, Bdd, Minatevis, I Feel Stabby, BAGANHA13 and BannedList for being generally awesome people (well except for yato, hes more fun). I must also mention the [REDACTED]cord, where ive made so many lifelong friends, like qbking3, OceanicGamer, FishyRoads and IncredibleKing who i absolutely love nowadays. By this time, i still had no clear path, I stumbled around looking for my place. With that, i landed in the PTPL chat, and started slowly pushing myself into stuff and making my mark, meeting people like Astarion, NaokiSeven, Sr. Regigigas and Leafium Z, being also the time when landoheimer died and got replaced by Nasir, you can blame Envy for that , going even into evopl soon after, where i made great friends like my brother beto cachinhos, Miraiii, Coffy and my formerly great friend ExguardiaN who, despite me being on bad terms with now, is someone id creditwith much of my development in this community for a while. It is also when i get dragged into the more raw side of the speaker community, with the smaller players and stuff. AstradiaPL was that experience for me, where id get closer with KniY, Cyrakii, Cloudznn, angolano06, glowbrogang, kimer and many more people id consider legitimate friends nowadays.

I think id only get a clear path during UUFPL, where i helped what would become some of my favourite people on the site. haxlolo, jawabarat, igiveuponaname, Maris Bonibelle and amny others who made up the battlegirls really gave me a way foward into the world of smogon and expanded my horizons. Id play then in ORAS Under right after, something i have to thank my great friend CarTulo for allowing em to do. I think its here i create my own character, separate from 35, or the sub 9 which i have no reason outside of abra xdd (s/o abrinha) to mention. I would play in many other tournaments after, but nothing of note except that i would keep growing my name. NasirPL was a thing that happened and thats all i can say about it. At this point, i feel like i was just a silently consistent player whenever i played, nothing more.

the end of 25 and start of 26 feels like a breath of fresh air, with me meeting so many people and joining so many new cool jerks. cugang, with my goats 4tup ZombieEyeZ im_m0rtal. Incognition Cluelessmagnet Proszz Regiboob and so many others, not to speak of a great PTSL win along side many of the people mentioned above in the PTPL section, with some aditions like berna-, luuanfps, Staraptor and lighthouses (+ Liemaster) that really reinforced my love for management, and was overall one of the most fun tours ive played in a while (not so subtle hint for yall MyPearl Grillo). This comes after a devastating PTPL, where people like GUZOT, DD Joe, Hats and EmbCPT were a silver lining in a pretty negative tournament when it comes to a pretty devastating tour run. Housewifes is also relevant, my second home in this community, with Poli, sheepie, sychillz, Dead by Daylight, Soda Eesti Aurist, Theycallmephil and even people like my bro Mok3s and so, so many more amazing people i love dearly. That to not speak of the many smaller communities ive joined, making tight friends as a result like SouCarlos, Luisa, PixelBob or my student kauez a bit later

This is where my story is thus far. Everyone ive mentioned above had an insanely big impact on my life and is someone i can consider to have been a good friend. This is not even an exhaustive list, making one of those without looking at everyone ive ever interacted with is a herculean task i am not ready for. While people like notlena and Sparkelz have also entered my life and are relevant, for example, i just cant mention everyone. However, for some of you that know me best, know some people are missing weirdly, as they are some of the people i cherish the most and have been the closest with in these last 3 years. even if people above play an important part on who i became, none of them are these 4 below, no amtter how much love i have for people like ocean, purbaj, lolo, jawa or tup.

Msousa ive called you my brother in the mons community enough times by now for it to not be a joke. you have always been my rock and closest friend, be it in the old days of making wigglytuff sun in march24, up to managing PTPL with me. You know me better than anyone else and i dont think i need to tell anyone this but you. Ly sousa, never change, keep being the amazing friend you have been, you are and always will be. If theres anyone i know i can have long technical talks with, i know its you, and theres only one person i know calls out my bs when i need it xd

Finchely fin the lee, finnicky, friendly, finnish lee, or simply finchy. You make sure my mind is sane every time, laugh with me, cry with me and have always comemorated my accomplishment like no one else. Youre my sister in this mons community, we might play fight everywhere and be silly, but at the end of the day we care for each other and theres nothing that makes me happier than see that youre well. ly finchy, keep being the you we all know and love.

hi nasir. when i joined 35 pokes back in the day i first met you, and u were my first friend. i remember you telling me to use hurricane gyarados to snipe chesnaught and it worked LOL. you would leave the community later, but we didnt stop talking and honestly i think after we left our friendship grew? i think its fair to say you have seen my growth in this game alot, and i really do appreciate all the deep talks you had with me, its safe to say you were a good emotional stabilizer for me haha. sad to see you go, but im glad you valued our friendship as much as i did

dont u dare delete discord btw i will come hunt you down personally if u do

the end of 25 and start of 26 feels like a breath of fresh air, with me meeting so many people and joining so many new cool jerks. cugang, with my goats 4tup ZombieEyeZ im_m0rtal. Incognition Cluelessmagnet Proszz Regiboob and so many others, not to speak of a great PTSL win along side many of the people mentioned above in the PTPL section, with some aditions like berna-, luuanfps, Staraptor and lighthouses (+ Liemaster) that really reinforced my love for management, and was overall one of the most fun tours ive played in a while (not so subtle hint for yall MyPearl Grillo). This comes after a devastating PTPL, where people like GUZOT, DD Joe, Hats and EmbCPT were a silver lining in a pretty negative tournament when it comes to a pretty devastating tour run. Housewifes is also relevant, my second home in this community, with Poli, sheepie, sychillz, Dead by Daylight, Soda Eesti Aurist, Theycallmephil and even people like my bro Mok3s and so, so many more amazing people i love dearly. That to not speak of the many smaller communities ive joined, making tight friends as a result like SouCarlos, Luisa, PixelBob or my student kauez a bit later

This is where my story is thus far. Everyone ive mentioned above had an insanely big impact on my life and is someone i can consider to have been a good friend. This is not even an exhaustive list, making one of those without looking at everyone ive ever interacted with is a herculean task i am not ready for. While people like notlena and Sparkelz have also entered my life and are relevant, for example, i just cant mention everyone. However, for some of you that know me best, know some people are missing weirdly, as they are some of the people i cherish the most and have been the closest with in these last 3 years. even if people above play an important part on who i became, none of them are these 4 below, no amtter how much love i have for people like ocean, purbaj, lolo, jawa or tup.

Msousa ive called you my brother in the mons community enough times by now for it to not be a joke. you have always been my rock and closest friend, be it in the old days of making wigglytuff sun in march24, up to managing PTPL with me. You know me better than anyone else and i dont think i need to tell anyone this but you. Ly sousa, never change, keep being the amazing friend you have been, you are and always will be. If theres anyone i know i can have long technical talks with, i know its you, and theres only one person i know calls out my bs when i need it xd

Finchely fin the lee, finnicky, friendly, finnish lee, or simply finchy. You make sure my mind is sane every time, laugh with me, cry with me and have always comemorated my accomplishment like no one else. Youre my sister in this mons community, we might play fight everywhere and be silly, but at the end of the day we care for each other and theres nothing that makes me happier than see that youre well. ly finchy, keep being the you we all know and love.

Zpice you knew your mention was coming. It was hard not mentioning you witht he battlegirls, or the housewifes, or how youre pretty much the reason why i held on for so long in this community. You believed in me when no one else did. You saw the spark i was missing, and worked with me to become the best version of myself i ever could be. Youre one of the most trustworthy people i know, and one of the people i have the most gratitude for in my entire life. Thank you for all youve ever done for me, and for being a fucking awesome friend who i can always rely on

Calmmind75 s/o McBruh for presenting to me what is one of the most lively people i know, a great friend with a good heart and a very fun personality, who i know i can have both deep convos with and just have fun and chill, depending on what its needed. Someone i know will accept any cool idea i have, go for the silly route every time and be the absolute best bro ever. Ty for sticking around calm,a nd your future in this game will shine brighter than what people might think right now

Vii-samba obligatory vii ping, ty girl for always making sure my mind is in check and putting up with my mons bs while giving me awesome advice, youre a real one

Ty for reading this semi-coherent ramble yall, Nasir signing out, if youre still reading here, go play 35 oct-b or something, meta is fucking sweet

Obrigado pelo tour donphans, perdao se eu n fiz suficiente. Eu dei meu melhor. Eu gostava de fazer meu postzinho de shoutouts, mesmo perdendo o torneio. Foi um bom tour. Obrigado a todos.

Msousa eu prometi-te que iamos managear juntos este ano. Ambos cumprimos essa promessa. Podemos ter perdido, mas pelo menos poffs fizemos e eu tenho 0 arrependimentos quanto a nossa auction. Obriago pelo tour irmão, e foi triste que tenhas ficado sem pc durante boa parte dele. N vou olhar ao teu score, tu sabes mt bem o que penso de ti como player e isto não muda nada

leoperi obrigado por aceitar ser nosso terceiro comanager. Vc n foi o mais ativo, mas era o esperado e foi uma boa presenca no chat e boa escolha de comanager.

purbaj thank you my friend for all the help behind the scenes. Couldnt have made it so far without you, and im sorry it didnt lead to a victory. Hope you have a great scl though, amazing and super proud to see you there. If you need anything of me, you know you have my dms open for you always. Also great recommendation in me empty

wssi vlw pela ajuda geral na prep. Perdao ter tido de te subbar. mas sua prep, por mais que tenha todo o meme, foi genuinamente valiosa e o um dos motivos pelo qual chegamos onde chegamos, principalmente in lt's

LB wish you were in a better mental state for this tour my brother. I knew i wanted a repeat of our PTSL SV OU core, i knew you guys would cook. Unfortunately, didnt work quite the same way, but thats alright. not all decisions can be successful. wish you the best of luck for OLT friend, go beat them.

Calmmind75 obrigado por manter meu mental são durante o tour e pela performance amigo. Eu sabia que tinha que te comprar e que me traria resultados. infelizmente n te dei a PTPL, mas vc vai chegar bem mais longe do que esse torneio. Vc eh um player fenomenal e amigo melhor ainda, uma honra jogar a seu lado

Kyogrus24 the vgc goat. I knew i could always count on you to get a win when it mattered and it is not a coincidence our VGC slot was our most positive one over the tour in general. I didnt know you before this, but i can confidently say youre an amazing player who will do everything in his power to win, all the while maintaining an amazing chat atmosphere. Thank you for tagging along on the journey, all the success to you in your future endeavors friend

HardFreaQ desculpa ter de te benchar quase a season toda amigo, mas espero, e parece-me, que te tenhas divertido. Obg por te teres inscrevido quando te pedi, ver tu e o kyogrus a trabalharem juntos tao bem foi algo maravilhoso e hey, 2-0 fica bonito. Boa sorte pros proximos tours e vida pessoal mano, foi um prazer jogar contigo, otimas vibes e otima gameplay

haxlolo dont beat yourself up over your performance in the later weeks, everyone can go through bad gameplay patches, happens. Ty for playing with us, my twin, it was amazing teaming up with you in this tour and i hope youloved being in it as much as we loved having you. Unfortunately, you didnt get your so deserved x-0

toinha wssi preps. Simplesmente o homem em SV RU. PRa setimo melhor da pool, acho q fizemos a escolha certa. N deixe se abater pela derrota final, todos temos games ruins ate soulwind chokou game decisivo wcop- e tudo q vc fez pelo time vale mais doq uma simples loss. Obrigado por nos acompanhar e por ser esse player e pessoa foda q vc eh

5MGMatthew5 my friend, i knew i needed you tos tart in NU here, no matter what people thought. It was amazing teaming up with you matt, and i hope you had fun and are happy with your season, it was an amazing one to follow. Gl in future endeavors

Me Empty ty purbaj for recommending me the PU goat. Unfort your result didnt follow your skill or tier knowledge, but i hope you liked tagging along for the ride

KniY na boa, vc foi meu mental check o tour inteiro. Vlw por estar nas minhas dms me escutando lentamente quebrando qnd o time parecia desmoronar, ajuda mt mais doq parece. N me arrependo nem um pouco de te comprar, e perdao n ter podido te slottar tirando em fodendo sv ou

Fernanch bem, n foi vc chokando a semis dessa vez. Brincadeiras a parte, definitivamente um dos players dos donphans que eu mais queria de volta, acredito mt noq vejo de vc como player e espero ver cada vez mais. Um prazer jogar c vc dnv

hxmo View attachment 856172 (brincadeiras a parte, obrigado por jogar mesmo com o irl na merda praticamente o tour inteiro,3k hxmo foi um roubo e eh pena q n deu pra mostrar isso tao bem como deveria)

Wincon i got absolutely enamored witht he way you prep for mono for the entire tour, sad that the results didnt reflect the effort you were putting in, even if themselves werent bad at all. Youre a very good player and it was a pleasure getting to know you

Ikaishi nothing more to say than that im happy i drafted the best SS OU player in the tour. You werent the most active, but i knew i could trust you to put in the performance id expect from a name such as yours. Hope you liked tagging along for the ride and good luck with future yours, youre a stellar player really

tokyo prison ty for your performance, you almost gave me multiple heart attacks during the tour but you also won when we needed you to the most and thats all we could ask. Was an honor playing with you

Fdmw sry for benching you the entire season, really only drafted you because undrafted kyrius is absolutely criminal, and its unfortunate you had to land on the team with ikaishi in the one slot you wanted

PixelBob you really cant catch a break uh. the luck on your games was just ass man, wish you coulve shown more of how good of a player you are, but ty for playing for us, always nice to team up with a friend

4tup desculpa ter tido de te dar sellback, esperava poder mostrar ao mundo outra vez o teu nivel como jogador, mas a vida tinha outros planos para ti

Proszz desculpa n te draftar inicialmente, e obrigado pro teres dado o teu maximo para ajudar a team quando te juntaste a noz, fizeste uam diferenca enorme mesmo que tenhas benchado praticamente a season toda

If you are reading this, im asuming you care enough about me to care about reading what im asuming is a wall of rambling, semi-coherent text about personal stuff that does not pertain to the tournament at all. I will be writing this in english, since its more accessible for the people i want to read it, se você não entende inglês, perdão, por favor usa o tradutor. I have been playing this game for what amounts to about 3 years by this point, and while i expected it to last longer, i feel this is the final stop. As many of you might know, I have planned to retire from the game for a while, in particular my tipping point was the UCL auction, whicxh is a hella silly tipping point if i am to be completely honest. Truthfully, i feel i have done all i need to do in this community, with some notable exceptions. I also feel that i both have not been having fun with the game and it has been overall negative to my mental health. As such, you may take this as my personal retirement post from mons. This has nothing to do with losing or winning PTPL, as the people that are aware as more than a passing thing are aware, i have always planned to retire after this tournament. This is, to be clear, not my final tournament, however, the ones i will play from now on are very specific: DNUPL, if that happens, is one i want to manage with Zpice. WCoP 2027, if team Portugal wants me back and hasnt moved on from me by then, i wish to play/manage in. I obviously plan to finish RCoP and BOUPL, and if Purbaj still wants to take my promisse up we can manage a tour together, i hate breaking promisses like that. But thats it. No more mons after, during or before this point. after wcop 27, i should fully vanish from the game, at most stay around talking with friends and occasionally ladder. This isnt a spurt of the moment decision, this has been planned for months now. With all of that said, i think i woudl do my friends a disservice by not saying goodbye. I will do it in a sort of "era" thing. so here it comes. Thank you all, first off, for havig accompanied me on this journey, you truly are fantastic.

I must start with 35 really was my first home in this community, people like NotGerald and Ryu09 helped me feel welcome and feel part of something new and exciting. I had some fun running stuff with Ember Celica aswell, even if we arent on the best of terms now, thank you for the ride. Ive made friends for life there, be it my pt speaking friend eambplsl, the great oct gang of bigshoota and Riki/Poisany or the ones that came after, like @carnivore05, Maszt, BellUno, MamboTND, presi, mmtaccos, Bizounounours, Laviecestdure, terribleplayer17 and so, so many more. I must also bring up my great time in PDL, with amazing folk such as reality, @azurious StanTerhoeve28 and 7ayakum. It truly was a different time, less smogon politics bs, less stakes, less having to care about cheaters unless they were that one who was cheating on their gf, i had no idea what was to come.

It is here i start branching out, and really i only got anywhere due to team pt. In particular, i gotta thank Ulti Bastion, Frixel, sayyonara, Hueco, Bdd, Minatevis, I Feel Stabby, BAGANHA13 and BannedList for being generally awesome people (well except for yato, hes more fun). I must also mention the [REDACTED]cord, where ive made so many lifelong friends, like qbking3, OceanicGamer, FishyRoads and IncredibleKing who i absolutely love nowadays. By this time, i still had no clear path, I stumbled around looking for my place. With that, i landed in the PTPL chat, and started slowly pushing myself into stuff and making my mark, meeting people like Astarion, NaokiSeven, Sr. Regigigas and Leafium Z, being also the time when landoheimer died and got replaced by Nasir, you can blame Envy for that , going even into evopl soon after, where i made great friends like my brother beto cachinhos, Miraiii, Coffy and my formerly great friend ExguardiaN who, despite me being on bad terms with now, is someone id creditwith much of my development in this community for a while. It is also when i get dragged into the more raw side of the speaker community, with the smaller players and stuff. AstradiaPL was that experience for me, where id get closer with KniY, Cyrakii, Cloudznn, angolano06, glowbrogang, kimer and many more people id consider legitimate friends nowadays.

I think id only get a clear path during UUFPL, where i helped what would become some of my favourite people on the site. haxlolo, jawabarat, igiveuponaname, Maris Bonibelle and amny others who made up the battlegirls really gave me a way foward into the world of smogon and expanded my horizons. Id play then in ORAS Under right after, something i have to thank my great friend CarTulo for allowing em to do. I think its here i create my own character, separate from 35, or the sub 9 which i have no reason outside of abra xdd (s/o abrinha) to mention. I would play in many other tournaments after, but nothing of note except that i would keep growing my name. NasirPL was a thing that happened and thats all i can say about it. At this point, i feel like i was just a silently consistent player whenever i played, nothing more.

the end of 25 and start of 26 feels like a breath of fresh air, with me meeting so many people and joining so many new cool jerks. cugang, with my goats 4tup ZombieEyeZ im_m0rtal. Incognition Cluelessmagnet Proszz Regiboob and so many others, not to speak of a great PTSL win along side many of the people mentioned above in the PTPL section, with some aditions like berna-, luuanfps, Staraptor and lighthouses (+ Liemaster) that really reinforced my love for management, and was overall one of the most fun tours ive played in a while (not so subtle hint for yall MyPearl Grillo). This comes after a devastating PTPL, where people like GUZOT, DD Joe, Hats and EmbCPT were a silver lining in a pretty negative tournament when it comes to a pretty devastating tour run.

It truly was a different time, less smogon politics bs, less stakes, less having to care about cheaters unless they were that one who was cheating on their gf, i had no idea what was to come.

It is here i start branching out, and really i only got anywhere due to team pt. In particular, i gotta thank Ulti Bastion, Frixel, sayyonara, Hueco, Bdd, Minatevis, I Feel Stabby, BAGANHA13 and BannedList for being generally awesome people (well except for yato, hes more fun). I must also mention the [REDACTED]cord, where ive made so many lifelong friends, like qbking3, OceanicGamer, FishyRoads and IncredibleKing who i absolutely love nowadays. By this time, i still had no clear path, I stumbled around looking for my place. With that, i landed in the PTPL chat, and started slowly pushing myself into stuff and making my mark, meeting people like Astarion, NaokiSeven, Sr. Regigigas and Leafium Z, being also the time when landoheimer died and got replaced by Nasir, you can blame Envy for that , going even into evopl soon after, where i made great friends like my brother beto cachinhos, Miraiii, Coffy and my formerly great friend ExguardiaN who, despite me being on bad terms with now, is someone id creditwith much of my development in this community for a while. It is also when i get dragged into the more raw side of the speaker community, with the smaller players and stuff. AstradiaPL was that experience for me, where id get closer with KniY, Cyrakii, Cloudznn, angolano06, glowbrogang, kimer and many more people id consider legitimate friends nowadays.

I think id only get a clear path during UUFPL, where i helped what would become some of my favourite people on the site. haxlolo, jawabarat, igiveuponaname, Maris Bonibelle and amny others who made up the battlegirls really gave me a way foward into the world of smogon and expanded my horizons. Id play then in ORAS Under right after, something i have to thank my great friend CarTulo for allowing em to do. I think its here i create my own character, separate from 35, or the sub 9 which i have no reason outside of abra xdd (s/o abrinha) to mention. I would play in many other tournaments after, but nothing of note except that i would keep growing my name. NasirPL was a thing that happened and thats all i can say about it. At this point, i feel like i was just a silently consistent player whenever i played, nothing more.

the end of 25 and start of 26 feels like a breath of fresh air, with me meeting so many people and joining so many new cool jerks. cugang, with my goats 4tup ZombieEyeZ im_m0rtal. Incognition Cluelessmagnet Proszz Regiboob and so many others, not to speak of a great PTSL win along side many of the people mentioned above in the PTPL section, with some aditions like berna-, luuanfps, Staraptor and lighthouses (+ Liemaster) that really reinforced my love for management, and was overall one of the most fun tours ive played in a while (not so subtle hint for yall MyPearl Grillo). This comes after a devastating PTPL, where people like GUZOT, DD Joe, Hats and EmbCPT were a silver lining in a pretty negative tournament when it comes to a pretty devastating tour run. Housewifes is also relevant, my second home in this community, with Poli, sheepie, sychillz, Dead by Daylight, Soda Eesti Aurist, Theycallmephil and even people like my bro Mok3s and so, so many more amazing people i love dearly. That to not speak of the many smaller communities ive joined, making tight friends as a result like SouCarlos, Luisa, PixelBob or my student kauez a bit later

This is where my story is thus far. Everyone ive mentioned above had an insanely big impact on my life and is someone i can consider to have been a good friend. This is not even an exhaustive list, making one of those without looking at everyone ive ever interacted with is a herculean task i am not ready for. While people like notlena and Sparkelz have also entered my life and are relevant, for example, i just cant mention everyone. However, for some of you that know me best, know some people are missing weirdly, as they are some of the people i cherish the most and have been the closest with in these last 3 years. even if people above play an important part on who i became, none of them are these 4 below, no amtter how much love i have for people like ocean, purbaj, lolo, jawa or tup.

Msousa ive called you my brother in the mons community enough times by now for it to not be a joke. you have always been my rock and closest friend, be it in the old days of making wigglytuff sun in march24, up to managing PTPL with me. You know me better than anyone else and i dont think i need to tell anyone this but you. Ly sousa, never change, keep being the amazing friend you have been, you are and always will be. If theres anyone i know i can have long technical talks with, i know its you, and theres only one person i know calls out my bs when i need it xd

Finchely fin the lee, finnicky, friendly, finnish lee, or simply finchy. You make sure my mind is sane every time, laugh with me, cry with me and have always comemorated my accomplishment like no one else. Youre my sister in this mons community, we might play fight everywhere and be silly, but at the end of the day we care for each other and theres nothing that makes me happier than see that youre well. ly finchy, keep being the you we all know and love.

Zpice you knew your mention was coming. It was hard not mentioning you witht he battlegirls, or the housewifes, or how youre pretty much the reason why i held on for so long in this community. You believed in me when no one else did. You saw the spark i was missing, and worked with me to become the best version of myself i ever could be. Youre one of the most trustworthy people i know, and one of the people i have the most gratitude for in my entire life. Thank you for all youve ever done for me, and for being a fucking awesome friend who i can always rely on

Calmmind75 s/o McBruh for presenting to me what is one of the most lively people i know, a great friend with a good heart and a very fun personality, who i know i can have both deep convos with and just have fun and chill, depending on what its needed. Someone i know will accept any cool idea i have, go for the silly route every time and be the absolute best bro ever. Ty for sticking around calm,a nd your future in this game will shine brighter than what people might think right now

Vii-samba obligatory vii ping, ty girl for always making sure my mind is in check and putting up with my mons bs while giving me awesome advice, youre a real one

Ty for reading this semi-coherent ramble yall, Nasir signing out, if youre still reading here, go play 35 oct-b or something, meta is fucking sweet

Wincon i got absolutely enamored witht he way you prep for mono for the entire tour, sad that the results didnt reflect the effort you were putting in, even if themselves werent bad at all. Youre a very good player and it was a pleasure getting to know you

Ikaishi nothing more to say than that im happy i drafted the best SS OU player in the tour. You werent the most active, but i knew i could trust you to put in the performance id expect from a name such as yours. Hope you liked tagging along for the ride and good luck with future yours, youre a stellar player really

tokyo prison ty for your performance, you almost gave me multiple heart attacks during the tour but you also won when we needed you to the most and thats all we could ask. Was an honor playing with you

Fdmw sry for benching you the entire season, really only drafted you because undrafted kyrius is absolutely criminal, and its unfortunate you had to land on the team with ikaishi in the one slot you wanted

PixelBob you really cant catch a break uh. the luck on your games was just ass man, wish you coulve shown more of how good of a player you are, but ty for playing for us, always nice to team up with a friend

If you are reading this, im asuming you care enough about me to care about reading what im asuming is a wall of rambling, semi-coherent text about personal stuff that does not pertain to the tournament at all. I will be writing this in english, since its more accessible for the people i want to read it, se você não entende inglês, perdão, por favor usa o tradutor. I have been playing this game for what amounts to about 3 years by this point, and while i expected it to last longer, i feel this is the final stop. As many of you might know, I have planned to retire from the game for a while, in particular my tipping point was the UCL auction, whicxh is a hella silly tipping point if i am to be completely honest. Truthfully, i feel i have done all i need to do in this community, with some notable exceptions. I also feel that i both have not been having fun with the game and it has been overall negative to my mental health. As such, you may take this as my personal retirement post from mons. This has nothing to do with losing or winning PTPL, as the people that are aware as more than a passing thing are aware, i have always planned to retire after this tournament. This is, to be clear, not my final tournament, however, the ones i will play from now on are very specific: DNUPL, if that happens, is one i want to manage with Zpice. WCoP 2027, if team Portugal wants me back and hasnt moved on from me by then, i wish to play/manage in. I obviously plan to finish RCoP and BOUPL, and if Purbaj still wants to take my promisse up we can manage a tour together, i hate breaking promisses like that. But thats it. No more mons after, during or before this point. after wcop 27, i should fully vanish from the game, at most stay around talking with friends and occasionally ladder. This isnt a spurt of the moment decision, this has been planned for months now. With all of that said, i think i woudl do my friends a disservice by not saying goodbye. I will do it in a sort of "era" thing. so here it comes. Thank you all, first off, for havig accompanied me on this journey, you truly are fantastic.

I must start with 35 really was my first home in this community, people like NotGerald and Ryu09 helped me feel welcome and feel part of something new and exciting. I had some fun running stuff with Ember Celica aswell, even if we arent on the best of terms now, thank you for the ride. Ive made friends for life there, be it my pt speaking friend eambplsl, the great oct gang of bigshoota and Riki/Poisany or the ones that came after, like @carnivore05, Maszt, BellUno, MamboTND, presi, mmtaccos, Bizounounours, Laviecestdure, terribleplayer17 and so, so many more.

Ive made friends for life there, be it my pt speaking friend eambplsl, the great oct gang of bigshoota and Riki/Poisany or the ones that came after, like @carnivore05, Maszt, BellUno, MamboTND, presi, mmtaccos, Bizounounours, Laviecestdure, terribleplayer17 and so, so many more. I must also bring up my great time in PDL, with amazing folk such as reality, @azurious StanTerhoeve28 and 7ayakum. It truly was a different time, less smogon politics bs, less stakes, less having to care about cheaters unless they were that one who was cheating on their gf, i had no idea what was to come.

It is here i start branching out, and really i only got anywhere due to team pt. In particular, i gotta thank Ulti Bastion, Frixel, sayyonara, Hueco, Bdd, Minatevis, I Feel Stabby, BAGANHA13 and BannedList for being generally awesome people (well except for yato, hes more fun). I must also mention the [REDACTED]cord, where ive made so many lifelong friends, like qbking3, OceanicGamer, FishyRoads and IncredibleKing who i absolutely love nowadays. By this time, i still had no clear path, I stumbled around looking for my place. With that, i landed in the PTPL chat, and started slowly pushing myself into stuff and making my mark, meeting people like Astarion, NaokiSeven, Sr. Regigigas and Leafium Z, being also the time when landoheimer died and got replaced by Nasir, you can blame Envy for that , going even into evopl soon after, where i made great friends like my brother beto cachinhos, Miraiii, Coffy and my formerly great friend ExguardiaN who, despite me being on bad terms with now, is someone id creditwith much of my development in this community for a while. It is also when i get dragged into the more raw side of the speaker community, with the smaller players and stuff. AstradiaPL was that experience for me, where id get closer with KniY, Cyrakii, Cloudznn, angolano06, glowbrogang, kimer and many more people id consider legitimate friends nowadays.

I think id only get a clear path during UUFPL, where i helped what would become some of my favourite people on the site. haxlolo, jawabarat, igiveuponaname, Maris Bonibelle and amny others who made up the battlegirls really gave me a way foward into the world of smogon and expanded my horizons. Id play then in ORAS Under right after, something i have to thank my great friend CarTulo for allowing em to do. I think its here i create my own character, separate from 35, or the sub 9 which i have no reason outside of abra xdd (s/o abrinha) to mention. I would play in many other tournaments after, but nothing of note except that i would keep growing my name. NasirPL was a thing that happened and thats all i can say about it. At this point, i feel like i was just a silently consistent player whenever i played, nothing more.

the end of 25 and start of 26 feels like a breath of fresh air, with me meeting so many people and joining so many new cool jerks. cugang, with my goats 4tup ZombieEyeZ im_m0rtal. Incognition Cluelessmagnet Proszz Regiboob and so many others, not to speak of a great PTSL win along side many of the people mentioned above in the PTPL section, with some aditions like berna-, luuanfps, Staraptor and lighthouses (+ Liemaster) that really reinforced my love for management, and was overall one of the most fun tours ive played in a while (not so subtle hint for yall MyPearl Grillo). This comes after a devastating PTPL, where people like GUZOT, DD Joe, Hats and EmbCPT were a silver lining in a pretty negative tournament when it comes to a pretty devastating tour run. Housewifes is also relevant, my second home in this community, with Poli, sheepie, sychillz, Dead by Daylight, Soda Eesti Aurist, Theycallmephil and even people like my bro Mok3s and so, so many more amazing people i love dearly. That to not speak of the many smaller communities ive joined, making tight friends as a result like SouCarlos, Luisa, PixelBob or my student kauez a bit later

This is where my story is thus far. Everyone ive mentioned above had an insanely big impact on my life and is someone i can consider to have been a good friend. This is not even an exhaustive list, making one of those without looking at everyone ive ever interacted with is a herculean task i am not ready for. While people like notlena and Sparkelz have also entered my life and are relevant, for example, i just cant mention everyone. However, for some of you that know me best, know some people are missing weirdly, as they are some of the people i cherish the most and have been the closest with in these last 3 years. even if people above play an important part on who i became, none of them are these 4 below, no amtter how much love i have for people like ocean, purbaj, lolo, jawa or tup.

Msousa ive called you my brother in the mons community enough times by now for it to not be a joke. you have always been my rock and closest friend, be it in the old days of making wigglytuff sun in march24, up to managing PTPL with me. You know me better than anyone else and i dont think i need to tell anyone this but you. Ly sousa, never change, keep being the amazing friend you have been, you are and always will be. If theres anyone i know i can have long technical talks with, i know its you, and theres only one person i know calls out my bs when i need it xd

Finchely fin the lee, finnicky, friendly, finnish lee, or simply finchy. You make sure my mind is sane every time, laugh with me, cry with me and have always comemorated my accomplishment like no one else. Youre my sister in this mons community, we might play fight everywhere and be silly, but at the end of the day we care for each other and theres nothing that makes me happier than see that youre well. ly finchy, keep being the you we all know and love.

Zpice you knew your mention was coming. It was hard not mentioning you witht he battlegirls, or the housewifes, or how youre pretty much the reason why i held on for so long in this community. You believed in me when no one else did. You saw the spark i was missing, and worked with me to become the best version of myself i ever could be. Youre one of the most trustworthy people i know, and one of the people i have the most gratitude for in my entire life. Thank you for all youve ever done for me, and for being a fucking awesome friend who i can always rely on

Calmmind75 s/o McBruh for presenting to me what is one of the most lively people i know, a great friend with a good heart and a very fun personality, who i know i can have both deep convos with and just have fun and chill, depending on what its needed. Someone i know will accept any cool idea i have, go for the silly route every time and be the absolute best bro ever. Ty for sticking around calm,a nd your future in this game will shine brighter than what people might think right now

Vii-samba obligatory vii ping, ty girl for always making sure my mind is in check and putting up with my mons bs while giving me awesome advice, youre a real one

Ty for reading this semi-coherent ramble yall, Nasir signing out, if youre still reading here, go play 35 oct-b or something, meta is fucking sweet
