I've been laddering a lot lately and I can attest to badals statement: it isn't that great and has not impacted the meta much.
 
Suspect Voting details

Suspect Voting
Method

Options:
- Win one of the 1v1 Tournaments held on Pokémon Online in the Beta Server, the winners of tournaments will be posted here. So claim here for the position to vote if you do want to vote.
- Post your highest ladder ranking along with a screenshot for proof, if you're doing this, then along with this post why you should be allowed to vote.

The voting will start on 25th of September, if all goes according to plan


 
Kingdra @ Lum Berry | 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 Spe > Kingdra @ Focus Sash | 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe, I have won a higher percentage of games without Focus Sash, and in two of three tournaments I have won, I wasn't running it either. As a matter of fact, ever since Sash is allowed, the lower percentage of Porygon-Z's (which are auto-loses to non-Sash Kingdra) has actually helped me. So yeah, I like the metagame with Sash.

Also, since I have won three 1v1 tournaments, do I get three votes, or are they non-cumulative?

I reached over 1100 on the ladder, and I won a tour, it's not on PO forums cause it's 8 men (badal was hosting it). I have laddered a bit, and some pokemon were sashed. I have been battling in other tiers for quite long, too.
 
Uh, I won three 1v1 tours after Sash was implemented and peaked the ladder with a rating of 1108 (I can provide a screenshot if necessary). Anything else I need to do?

If you've won a tournament, you get a vote, so you don't need to post a screenshot.
I'll be putting up a list of people who qualify as voters, soon.

Perhaps it should be becuase it grants an unfair advantage.
It should be? What should be?
And if you're talking about the focus sash, you can't vote because you haven't won a tournament or haven't posted a screenshot. And the voting hasn't started.

*oh manav*

Posting here to claim vote. And so far from what I've seen, the sash doesn't make the tier unbalanced
 
oops.

I think that i should be allowed to vote on this matter because i have been playing 1v1 since it was first implimented on PO. I have seen how minor changes have effected the current metagame. The 1v1 tier is a personal favorite of mine, and I would like my openion herd on what is or isn't allowed in the tier. However, I was so caught up in other projects i forgot to post this here. I understand i did not follow protocall, and if anybody is opposed to me voting so be it. If not please consider what i have to say.
Thanks

I am who I am.
 
I'm not a voter, but as you can see by my signature, I'm a very avid player of 1v1, and I find that focus sash imbalances the metagame to the point where ~50% of the sets and items used are countercoat-protect-sash, which ruins the variety usually seen in the metagame.


BTW please ignore my vote, i voted before I read everything.

Guys please do post if you have voted or claim if your names on the list. I'll probably give this a few more days
