Introduction

RBY OU Global Championship is a standard RBY OU Tournament with a goal to find the best RBY OU player of the year. Previous winners are Tiba , Prague Kick and Peasounay.

Each round will consist of 2 stages. The first stage each player will be given 2 sets of pairings in which they play a first-to-2-wins (best of 3 excluding ties) vs their opponent. After the first stage is completed and the host has determined wins, players who win both their matches go through to the next round, while players who lost twice are eliminated. The players who won 1, lost 1, battle it out in a tiebreaker FT2W in stage 2 to join the two-time winners in the next round or the player wins the tournament in the case of a final.

The prize returns: a $50 (or equivalent) amazon gift card will be given out to the winner of the entire tournament!​

Nooooooooooooooooo Beds freaking bodied me in the first stage haha. Welp, I can't believe I made it this far, but barring RBY shenanigans this is where I'll say goodbye haha
 
I reached my limit. :/ And when Variance hits you on the lower end, its not good enough. Still happy with my run and thanks to brown people wearing polo shirts Lusch Linkin Karp and Leru for helping me with teams and ideas and the general talk about the RBY Metagame, i really enjoyed this and learned quite a bit still.

GGFan is probably the only one here who saw me playing in deep RBY Tournament runs. i hope i made you proud, poritze ftw <3

gl to the finalists.my best bet would be probably roudolf to win this but we will see.

Banned deucer.
Verdammt StierscheiBe Sonya Krauses Poritze. Der Traum ist tod.

Ja, ich bin deutlich stolz auf dich. Obwohl du jetzt ein alter, schm:utizger Mann bist, hast du so viel unglaublich geleistet. Wegen dir ist RBY nicht mehr ein Witz, sondern das beste Modus in der ganzen Welt. Ich gratuliere dir!

P.S. dank meinem Kumpel Linkin Karp f:ur die Team-bauen Tipps und Hilfe, die er dir im Turnier gegeben hat. Die deutsche-Szene wird eines Tages zur:uckkommen!

Lost 0-2 to Beds. There seriously isn't a player out there I consistently lose as fast to as this guy haha. Well, it was a good run but I can't think of a more fitting finals than these three - good luck to all!
