I had been meaning to make a thread like this for a while. Basically I just want a centralized place where we can discuss how Smogon VGC tournaments work, how people feel about them, and what could change
Some current topics for discussion:
Circuit Autoqualifiers - The autoqualifying method won’t be removed for this season, but do people think it’s too broken or are most people happy with it? If we keep autoqualifiers for future circuits, should circuit winners autoqualify to the next similar to how the official world championships operate?
Tournament Calendar - How do people feel about the circuit tournaments in terms of timing and variety? Should we add more tournaments?
Third Team Tour - Right now we have NPA and Classics as our two team tournaments. Personally I think this is plenty for a section that isn’t primarily a smogon metagame, but if people have interested an additional team tour, this would be the place to talk about it. Side note, but NPA feedback should be kept out of this thread, there will likely be separate avenues to discuss that tournament when the time comes.
Of course these are just the ones I’m thinking of, if you have any talking points feel free.
