In this world of chaos, a light was starting to shine. A brave Lanturn stood up and made the terrors vanish to RUBL.

Manager PRs based on vibes:

Tier One:
C0nfiden1 0yster and fvkumean
Tsuki and MachJacob

Oyster changed his nickname to metagame whisperer at some point in the RU server, though I'm not sure what metagame he is referring to because it clearly isn't SV RU. Despite this he and fvkumean make a really solid pair, SV SS and SM should have competent QC throughout the tour. NatDex is probably loading samples all tour tho

Tsuki and MJ is a crazy combo, she really asked everyone with a pulse and got the British QC guy to assman. For what it's worth he is actually the bigger name (with a bigger game) and they should have a great server environment and decent enough QC on pastes.

Tier Two:
Lyra and siras
Flabeauf and Nemosse
Slikkles and im_m0rtal.

Lyra and siras are both fine managers from what I have seen and experienced (SIRAS carried bum ass Beraldo to RUPL playoffs two years ago with a pre-solving SV RU version of me). They'll be fine.

Flab and Nemosse are equally French and therefore equally bad, but Flab at least is a funny dude. Not like haha funny but the kinda funny where you laugh at what they say because it's pretty outlandish and just dumb as can be. On a real note, if a smidge of Flab's luck rubs off on his team, they win this tour.

Slikkles is a grinder who cares a lot, too much maybe, but legit I couldn't tell you who this co is. I am pretty sure slikky said in RU disc that he didn't know this person either so this is gonna be a weird team environment perhaps.

Tier Three:
Astro and Rarelyme
Yash Vortex and Vulpix03
SoulCarlos and mielke

I don't think Astro has played mons in years (maybe longer for meaningful games) and Rare is an interesting case of a TL-adjacent person that legit doesn't play their tier in any real capacity. Two spectator mains with limited RU playing experience is not moving the needle.

Yash Vortex and Vulpix03 is an interesting pair. Vulpix, to my knowledge, also has experience carrying Beraldo in RUPLs but hasn't engaged with the tier really in a long time I don't think. Yash is... a smogon user it seems.

mielke is a solid person and player, though he's cursed to always go negative in the ADV low tiers. His co is... somebody?
 
Hellooo, if you wish to be part of the Meloetta Division, feel free to send a resume to Astro or myself on Discord (gastrodonsouth or rarelyme) including your most impressive feats in the tier and what you wish to achieve during this RUGL (sending a couple replays is also always nice, maximum 5 is enough).
Our goal is to give a shot to the most motivated players out there; I will be online in the RU room fairly often so don't hesitate to challenge me in any tier you would like to tryout for. I also pay close attention to room tournaments so do use these opportunities to show your skills as well.

If you can see the difference between RU spectator mains and involved players then you probably have been in touch with the community and are worth drafting so shoot your shot, you might be the next member of the Meloetta Division.
