  • Follow all rules listed here.
  • Schedule via Smogon VMs. It's easier for me to make decisions for activity calls when I 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 me or the other team's managers for a potential substitute.
  • Substitutions may be made after a week has 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.
  • Replays are mandatory. 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.
  • Managers: Please send me your lineups in the same format that I used to post pairings. It makes it much easier to post future rounds more quickly

first, i want to say ggs to the duskballers. y'all were a great team. y'all drafted such a great and well rounded roster. Dababy2 , bro i'll stand by it im not sure how much you impacted the draft, but from teaming with you for the last couple years, you're legitimately are one of the best drafters and scouters of the entire site and any team is always so lucky to have you. you're one of my closest friends on the site and i just wanted to let the world know you are phenomenal at what you do bro.

ROAPL was actually the first tournament I ever joined on smogon that was a team tour. I created my account around december 2018, and then luckily enough I got picked up mid season for ROAPL 2019. I'm always so grateful for PDC and Marcop/Gilbert Arenas for picking up a noob like me back then.

This was my 2019 ROAPL team that PDC and Marcop drafted. My first ever smogon tour as a new player on the site and I was blessed to win it in the finals and deck Finch's team in the final just like how I decked him and his team in SCL last year. One of my favorite team tours ever as I met so many cool and good people like Roro, Metalgro$$, Kingler, Robjr, Tony, Troller and Void. I never signed up for ROAPL after that year since I preferred to play fairy gens, but nevertheless, ROAPL had a special place in my heart as the first PL I won and met so many cool people.

7 years later, I signed up to ROAPL as a manager because Fragments asked me and boy i'm so happy. let me cut thru the bs and give shoutouts rn.


Fragments - My brother. We first met in Phantom Troupe in 2023. I always knew you were epic. Thanks for always buying me in tours. I always felt bad that I lost us ELPL 3 years ago, but I'm so glad we were able to win this one. Thanks for asking me again to manage with you. Honestly, we didn't have a good ADVPL at all and I was very frustrated in so many things that were my fault as a first time manager, but i'm glad you trusted me on this one. You're an amazing drafter / scouter. Legit when you filled out our excel sheet with all the players names you were inquiring about and did you homework, man I was impressed. I'm glad we finally got to win one buddy after all these years of touring together. This means a lot. Love you dude, and you always know i have your back and you have a friend in me. We are Epic.

Spreek - Honestly bro, I did not know much about you. I just knew you from playing and that you were the highest winrated mushi player of all time turned smogon tour player from ADVPL. When Eva and Fragments told me you're legitimately one of the best ADV players on the site and they meant it, I was shook. Watching you play every week was awesome. Your prep was awesome, and thank you again for accepting the retain. Also, thank you again for accepting the responsibility on supporting not only yourself, but also Pak. You are so epic man, and without you this team wouldn't have had such a strong foundation. Also, you're a funny dude and very smart. Thanks again for accepting the retain man, much love. I wish you the best in your next tours and hope you have an epic life. Chompions Franchise Player 4L

Underlying - Bro im not gonna lie, i had no idea who you were this entire year kek. I only knew about your name because Dababy mentioned you were a good GSCer in SPL this year prior to the draft. After teaming with you in ADPL, that shit was hilarious. You and Baddy's chemistry and banter made me enjoy teaming with you and your humor as well too. I want to say thanks again for accepting the retain. I'm glad we could make ADPL right and win this one. You were so insanely clutch when we needed it and so self sufficient. I know you were really busy this tour since you had exams and holiday, but thank you again for showing up when we needed you the most. You are the Lebron to Spreek's D-Wade. Or the Rooney to Spreek's Van Persie in prime Man U. You are so epic bruh and I know you'll be one of the best GSCers on the site as you continue your journey. I hope you play SPL again because watching you play is a blast.

Baddy - Thanks again for being our European Manager when I hated waking up early on the weekends and we were unsure when Fragments would return because of his sleep schedule. You are epic. Thanks again for being a solid buy. I've teamed up with you multiple times now this year and we won OUPL and now ROAPL and its safe to say that you are legitimately a Mons is Mons dude. I swear every fucking PL i see you play in you always go positive and I'd never expected you to play the tier at all. I appreciate you a lot, and as I got to know you a lot this year from our tours since OUPL, you're a great guy and I love you and underlying's banter. I'm glad we did this after ADPL. We are epic.

Pak - I've always knew about you since I was a teen on smogon, but I figured you were just a lower tiers guy since I do remember you played a lot of UU back then in CG SM. Tbh dude, you were legit my non negotiable. I heard some insane winrate that you went 27-2 in side PL's the last year. Also Eva said you were a great piloter, and dude I watched all your games and you legitimately are. You are so epic bruh. Fragments did 90% of the draft, but I told him if there's one dude we HAVE to get it was you. Thank you again for being such a solid rock for our team as I could always count a win on you every week. I know you're super burnt now from playing so much ADV the entire year, but you are so solid dude and I hope I can team with you again in the future. Enjoy this break you have now, and I hope to see you play SPL ADV this upcoming 2027.

Premonitions - Bro I am gonna say this with 100% honesty. I had NO CLUE who you were. But after this tour, I can safely say you are fucking epic and a steal. Legit I do not know how you do not get bought for EVERY tour. You are such a great teammate, and you were an insane steal for 7-1 for 5.5k You're active, funny, nice, and not only that but you can fucking play and prep insanely well. I really hope managers in the future see your record in this tour and consider you next year for SPL. You're legit great man. Like I said I had no clue who you were, because I just knew Underlying and Fragments vouched for you so i said fuck it we ball. But it turns out you were more epic than I expected. Thanks again for being a solid anchor for our team. I hope we can team again

Ulti Bastion - I thought you were italian this entire time ngl. Finding out you are portuguese this week was insane to me. I'm glad you did not leave our team after week 1 LOLOL. I'm glad you stayed man, thanks again for being such an epic piloter in RBY. I watched you since ADPL and you are so insanely solid. I really hope you play in RBY SPL this upcoming year. You have amazing prep, you are a great self sufficient scouter, and a very respectful person. It was a blast to team with you and tbh dude you are very funny to talk to. I'm just so shook you're not italian. Anyways, I hope we can team again. you're awesome dude, good luck on the rest of your next tours. I still think 13.5k was a complete steal for you.

Tenebricite - Big T man. You are the goat. I always thought you were an insanely solid overall player since i've been watching you for the past couple years. Fragments told me you the dude he wanted to get 100%, and the fact we got you for 9.5k was a damn steal. Thanks again for being such a great teammate the entire season. You're an extremely great player and I'm glad I finally got to see it from myself because a lot of my friends say you are such a great all around player. You also have one of the most epic customs i've seen too. I hope you'll enjoy our new one coming together. Thanks again for being a solid starter. I hope next SPL they'll start you all 9 games because you are a delight to watch and one of the most versatile players i've ever drafted / played with. You are epic man.

GirlsSeeGhosts - I know the season didn't go how you wanted, but you came insanely clutch at the playoffs for us. I didn't get to watch much of your games this SPL, but watching your games week by week this entire tour, you are really good at the RBY dude. I'm sorry that some of the losses were rough, but hey thats just part of the game. Your mental fortitude is impressive ngl, cause i would've tilted to oblivion with some of the losses you had, but that proves to me that you're such a strong player and you won't let those setback goes against you. Like I said bruh, you are a clutch player though. Thanks again for being such a great teammate and a great chat presence. I think you and Ulti were the best RBYers this tour no joke, and I'm so glad when we got you for 15k cause you are definitely worth way more. I hope we can get to team again because I enjoyed talking with you a lot and I'm glad the low taper fade buff came in handy. You are epic bruh.

monchooo - I know the season didn't go as you wanted to as well, but I wanted to say overall thank you for being such a great and positive teammate. You were such a big part of our teams contribution. Thank you again for being so insanely self sufficient and really prepped your ass off. Also, you were a great help in helping Big T go positive this season too. You legitimately are one of the best preppers i've teamed with and its impressive because ngl, i have prep with some great players and no one watches replays like the way you do. You're solid and epic bruh. i hope to see you keep playing tours because you're fantastic person and teammate

SammyCe123 - Bro thanks again for slotting in BW and prepping your ass off. I know OMPL didn't go the best for us, but I'm glad we got to win this one. Thanks for listening to all of eva's suggestions. I knew you were an epic manager when you bought me for OMPL (which im insanely grateful for), but you're also a great player too. One of the hardest workers i know. Loved teaming with you bro

Quarante8 - 48 my man, I always enjoyed teaming with you since FCPL. I wanted to say i'm sorry the season didn't turn out how you wanted to. I know it's really frustrating, but I still rate you very highly. You're also a great teammate. I'm glad we finally got to win it together, and bro I truly do wish the best of luck to you on your next couple tours. You're epic bruh.

Gamebooadvanced - Bro thanks for being a fantastic teammate. You were an epic sub. Thanks for always being there when we needed you and being a positive impact on the chat. Your win vs Figull was epic too. I know you didn't get to play much this season, but I knew if there was anyone else to call for RBY/ADV, you were our guy. Thanks for playing for us bro, hope we can team again

lighthouses - ngl diogo, I know you didn't play at all this season LMAOOO. I hope this win makes up for when we lost DPP PL with baddy a week ago. I know regardless, you would've played when we asked you to, but you were fine with just chilling on the bench and saying "go team" every week. Thanks for playing for us HAHAHA. I'm glad we got to win this together since we've teamed a couple times now. You're epic bruh I appreciate you a lot

BigFatMantis - Thanks again for being Prem's foundation for this season and helping him test and come up with teams choices. You're a great GSCer dude. I know you didn't play at all this season, but you're a fantastic teammate and a great chat positive. You and Prem's epic chemistry helped us win it all.

purbaj - thanks for being our team mascot

evakiyama! - Thanks for being our BW prepper after the season ended. You legit are a phenomenal prepper and got us some amazing MU's. It was fun hanging out with you again cause I really enjoyed you a lot in ADPL and I think you're a fantastic manager, player, and person. You're so epic dude and without your support our BW slots wouldn't be this solid

Lazuli - ABR Slayer, thank you again for coming in and helping us with DPP. You're epic bruh and I've teamed up with you an official and you know I always enjoy your presence Haru. Maybe we can run back SCL again.



thanks again for the hosts (zac, alex, murphy) and goldmason for hosting a fantastic tour. Maybe I can finally retire high or they'll bring me back in SCL again. we'll see what comes first. I'm epic
