Welcome to the BSSF Open! The inaugural tournament of Gen 9 BSSF, one of our most unique formats with huge skill expression, prove your stardom the way Nintendo wants you to play, no teambuilding required!
This tournament is part of our ongoing Rands Slam IV circuit. Stay tuned after this tour for news about the next one!
Prizes
The winner of the BSSF Open will receive the Room Prize Winner rank in the Random Battles room for a month, be inducted into the Randbats Hall of Fame, and be awarded points for the Rands Slam IV. The winner of the Slam Playoffs Round will get a Smogon banner for a full year, along with a month-long Room Prize Winner rank, and a custom avatar!
How does the tour work?
It’s simple:
1. Contact your opponent on their Smogon wall and decide on a time to battle.
2. Battle each other in the format “[Gen 9] BSS Factory”.
3. The first player to 2 wins (3 wins for quarterfinals onwards) advances to the next round.
Please note:
1. All scheduling attempts MUST be done publicly on Smogon Walls. No other proof of communication will count for act calls regarding scheduling attempts.
2. You MUST post replays of your wins.
We strongly recommend familiarizing yourself with the Smogon Tournament Rules and General Guidelines, if you haven’t already. If you have further questions, don’t hesitate to contact the tour hosts (Celever or JustOut459) on Smogon.
Signups deadline is 4th of August at 11:59 UTC-4

When spectating Rands Slam battles, do not ghost. Ask yourself, “Would my comment reveal information that hasn’t already been explicitly revealed in this battle?” Examples of ghosting include commenting on how an unexpectedly fast Pokemon must be holding a Choice Scarf, speculating that the match will be decided by a tera coinflip, etc.
