Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | Week 5 | Week 6 | Week 7 | Semis | Finals

Administrative Decisions | Replays | Usages | Spreadsheet

Rules​
  • Follow all rules listed here.​
  • Schedule via Smogon VMs. It's easier for us to make decisions for activity calls when we can actually see what went down with scheduling.​
  • If you are unable to schedule with your opponent, please let your managers know ASAP so they can communicate that to us or the other team's managers for a potential substitute.​
  • Substitutions may be made after a week as started. When making a substitution, please tag myself, the managers of the opposing team, and all of the players affected by the substitute to ensure that everyone is made aware. Players who have already played in the week or were subbed out in the same week cannot be subbed back in.​
  • If a match remains incomplete by the time of the deadline, it will be subject to an activity call.​
  • Post replays. Not only are they useful for confirming wins, they contribute to usage stats and allow the people who couldn't watch the games live to watch them later. They're also required.​

46/79, still beating the ape but last week was not good for grand dictator general of entertainment

Goofy Goober Goodras (4) vs (6) The Dazzling Delphoxes
SV: sufys vs Suzukaaa - suzuka's been on fire with a string of very impressive wins, and while sufys has also managed to mount some pretty impressive wins his opponents have... definitely not been as engaged to say the least. i think sufys has the ability to break the streak here, especially as he's been venturing out of his comfort zone on team choice lately, but in the end i will still never bet against china
SV: etern vs dunoks - etern's matches lately have been looking like he's just hitting !randpoke 6 and he managed to win vs ampha thanks to having the right jolteon set for the situation and getting a little magic with decidueye, he's probably a better player than dunoks in a vacuum but phoxes sv has been cooking hard so far and i've been more impressed with dunoks' run in this tour so far
SV: Hiko vs 691 - got a lot of questions about this one. will hiko use a different team structure? will 691 overcook? will he roll the matchup and play a little too aggressive for his britches? seriously though, no way does hiko get away with loading florges snowslash rhydon balance for four weeks in a row, i refuse to believe it
SS: OranBerryBlissey10 vs Bloshh - obb's better but blosh had a pretty nice game vs ming, i still don't see obb continuing to go negative this tour though
SM: btboy vs Terracotta - idk who terracotta is and btboy has been doing decently well, had sugar on the ropes last week despite loading a pretty bad matchup into hjadspikes
ORAS: ishtar vs feen - feen is 3-0? shit i guess i do have to bold him
BW: LpZ vs Tizio Potente Ao - losing to the second best player in the pool is not enough reason for me to bold against lpz
DPP: Ara vs TJ - tj's wins have been earned
ADV: Parpar vs Aurist - aurist managed to notch a win over lily even if it was with a nasty freeze and parpar didn't play last week
Bo3: seraphz vs tom holland - alright tom. look here. you beat doug. that means a lot to me. i'm bolding you. see? your name is right there, bold. don't fuck this up.

Haunter x Haunter (3) vs (7) m.A.A.d. City Magmortars
SV: Vulpix03 vs kyuss - shit's about to get crazy, spooky, hilarious
SV: fish anemometer vs Andyboy - fish has been getting sloppy and andy's win was obviously nice enough for the mags to consider popping him on the rotation
SV: Tuthur vs Skarpherim - as long as skarph doesn't load alcremie again he should be fine!!
SS: Ming549 vs Dj Breloominati♬ - yeah okay after the claydol moment we witnessed last week i can't bold against this absolute supervillain anymore until further notice
SM: MZ vs pdt - i've seen pdt do well in other sm tiers before but i'm not entirely sure what his pu knowledge is like, gonna bold mz on the safety
ORAS: TSR vs Killintime - kt had a pretty good win against watashi last week and i was correct in predicting that god hates tsr
BW: TyCarter vs neomon - okay jesus i'm sorry that i talked shit last week
DPP: Heysup vs BeatsBlack - GUYS PLEASE STOP PRAYING FOR MY GRANDPA YOU'RE MAKING HIM TOO STRONG
ADV: Lily vs mielke - it's adv so shenanigans may happen but generally lily is just better at this tier
Bo3: DugZa vs Drud - have overall liked drud's games a lot better

Pokestar Pranksters (6) vs (4) Sinnoh Lakers
SV: SEA vs Piyu - in spirit, neither of these players played a game last week, but i've been liking sea's team choices a little bit more + go south
SV: Bouff vs Xiri - okay so xiri took a dub after i said terrorism never wins, i always knew my good friend fish anemometer was wrong, anyways bouff has been doing well and the only way i think they really lose here is if scheduling with xiri makes them crash out
SV: DripLegend vs Stories - tony had that game last week dead to rights were it not for the very unfortunate full para and stories just beat pdt - EDIT: stories did not beat pdt. i can not read. this does not change my opinion.
SS: gum vs Lambovino - gum has overall been impressing me more even if their schedule hasn't been quite as difficult as lambo's
SM: Gondra vs Estarossa - gondra's back! esta's been killing it lately though so gonna still let him have it
ORAS: Eternal Spirit vs watashi - watashi's been getting dunked pretty bad
BW: Accel vs Cow - cow's at the point of his season where he's really gotta lock in, i believe and a win vs accel would be a great start to the comeback but man
DPP: frankjosh vs SFG - frank's been cooking and playing better
ADV: violet river vs plznostep - okay violet river will pay for their crimes THIS WEEK surely
Bo3: sensei axew vs Larry - 0-3 in bo3 is pretty rough man idk what else to say

hi, just wanted to drop some quick sv predicts that I've tamed to be suitable for public viewing,

SV: S1nn0hC0nfirm3d vs big tony 2014 - i love tony but his brings have certainly been quite dubious this tour, to say the least - and that has reflected in the outcomes of his games. It is quite a bold move to bring tailwind when you're 0-2. But hey ho3n is getting sold back this week if he loses, maybe that's enough motivation for mr tony to bring something real this week...
SV: Floss vs Metallica126 - floss threw a pretty good matchup last week, and Metallica's misfortune can only last so long... this seems like a pretty good opportunity to turn his season around.
SV: Ampha vs LOOR - both have been having a pretty rough season but I've liked loor's team picks more so I'll bold him here - could certainly go either way, though


SV: Vulpix03 vs kyuss - this might be the highlight sv game of the week - I'll bold pix here because i think he's probably the best sv in this pool though - this is certainly a close game nonetheless
SV: fish anemometer vs Andyboy - fish is having a mediocre pupl as always, though he did have an unplayable matchup last week. As long as he's not more pre-occupied with real life ecosystems than that of the pu metagame, he should be able to win though
SV: Tuthur vs Skarpherim - tuthur got 6-0ed last week and skarpherim is doing fairly well so far so bolding him here

SV: SEA vs Piyu - i think piyu is the better player though sea may have the luck deity on her side based on last week so could go either way
SV: Bouff vs Xiri - if xiri brings oricorio this might go the other way but bouff and friends are on 9 straight wins in pu subforum tours and i think they can make it 10!
SV: DripLegend vs Stories - stories is the better player so bolding her but drip can certainly win if he brings a team that takes her to the deep dark forest where 2+2=5...
