  • 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.​

Who's ready for some uneducated ass predicts?

Super Summerchus (5) vs (5) Phantom Troupe
SM Ubers: Fc vs FadedCharm - Excited to see if the bad luck bug bites Fc in another ROA tour. I rate their experience in the tier highly here.
SM OU: TDNT vs ChrisPBacon - Highlight matchup of the week, to me. This battle of old vs. new could go either way really and may have to come down to matchup. I like the Summerchu's OU cadre more here so I'm giving TDNT the edge.
SM OU: Luirromen vs ZDen - I feel like Luirromen is the slightly better pilot and should pull through on the back of that and better support.
SM OU [Suspect Slot]: Hayburner vs Rubyblood - This one is a spicer, for sure. Hayburner is a force in many OU tiers, but SM OU is a particular strength. Rubyblood is no slouch either, but I find it difficult to predict against Hayburner in most things.
SM DOU: Ann vs eragon - Probably my doubles inexperience showing, but I know eragon is a solid doubles player and I just don't know Ann, though I'm sure they're more than decent as well.
SM UU: avarice vs Xiri - Just as with the suspect slot, it is going to be difficult to predict against Xiri any of these weeks. While I'm a big avarice fan, in SM UU I can't go any other way than Xiri
SM RU: BloodAce vs feen - feen has experience on their side, and while BloodAce is decent enough, I think feen has the edge prep-wise that will help them pull through.
SM NU: LpZ vs Stories - I really rate LpZ as a pilot, and this is a tier they know. Stories could make it close, but LpZ is my clear choice for the predict.
SM PU: Seraphz vs Oathkeeper - Oathkeeper may know this tier better, but Seraphz is a good enough pilot to make this a bit more muddied than you may think. I think the Summerchus will give a good enough team to Seraphz to get the win.
SM LC: Wail Wailord vs Hacker - I'm not predicting against Hacker.

Aurelian Parasites (2) vs (8) Rikka Fairies
SM Ubers: skimmythegod vs aurora - I don't know much about skimmythegod's experience in this tier, but I do know that aurora knows this shit well. skimmy could absolutely win here, though.
SM OU: Lusa vs Luigi - Another awesome matchup! I view these two as about equal in this tier, so I'll give the edge to Luigi for having a lot more OU talent around him on the Fairies.
SM OU: Piyu vs Eternal Spirit - This is a newerish tier for Piyu compared to Eternal Spirit, but again, this is a super close one that I wouldn't be surprised to see Piyu win.
SM OU [Suspect Slot]: violet river vs Punny - Unlike the other OU matchups, I think this one is Punny all day. They're excellent in this tier and I'm excited to see if/what they make with the suspect slot.
SM DOU: Idyll vs bagel - Both are good, I just rate bagel slightly higher. Again, I'm not super experienced with doubles!
SM UU: Estarossa vs 691 - The China lower tier buff is real. But in all honesty, I like the way 691 plays, this should be an exciting one!
SM RU: Gondra vs Beraldo - I like Beraldo's piloting ability but... this is Gondra we're talking about. Tough week 1 pull for Beraldo.
SM NU: Thiago Nunes vs Larry - Larry is in his bag here, hard to ever go against that. TNunes is a great player, one of my favorites currently, but SM NU is Larry's barn.
SM PU: sugar ovens vs Leni - Leni is the man in PU across a bunch of gens and SM is no different. I don't see a reason not to predict him over a lot of the pool.
SM LC: Éric vs Elfuseon - This one will absolutely be close, as I rate these two about equal, but having witnessed Elf's awful luck in LC firsthand, I'll give the slight edge to Eric.

Alolan Starstorms (4) vs (6) Andromeda Galaxy Cosmogs
SM Ubers: Taka vs Ainzcrad - Taka is on the come up right now and not a lot is stopping them. Great fan of their play and I'm excited to see what they put together in this tour.
SM OU: GeniusX vs Pais - GeniusX has been putting together some good results as of late across other tours, but Pais is great in this tier and my pick. There's upset potential here for sure, though.
SM OU: zS vs valuez - I like zS too much as a pilot to not pick them here. While I think the Cosmog's have a better OU room, zS is a talented dude who does talented dude things.
SM OU [Suspect Slot]: hellom vs Skypenguin - Will hellom continue to just win? Skypenguin is a really tough week 1 pull for the monster. Obviously it's a death sentence predicting against hellom for anything but I'll risk it just this one week. More than happy for my guy to prove me wrong, though.
SM DOU: GenOne vs qsns - ngl I just know that both are good and qsns has big tour success, so I'll go with them.
SM UU: pdt vs Xrn - not the battle of the south! :psycry: I hate predicting against Xrn but pdt is that guy and this is one of the tiers that pdt is even more that guy than usual.
SM RU: EviGaro vs xXcrossbowXx - EviGaro has the knowhow to roll in this tier and I like them over [COD username] by a bit.
SM NU: Ampha vs watashi - Ampha is a good dude and more than a decent player, but watashi is very, very good at the video game and I like them more here.
SM PU: justdrew vs PTF - PTF has been around and while Drew is good, I'll give the smallest edge to PTF.
SM LC: Fille vs tazz - Fille is good, but tazz is super solid and one of the hardest week 1 pulls in the tour.
