  • 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.

1v1 : Akeras vs Gorilaa: Should be a close one. Akeras has been good lately so slightly leaning towards them. 55-45
1v1 : Nuxl vs Indi01: Possibly a hot take. Indi is generally underlooked as a player and I think he'll show it here. 41-59
1v1 : fake tom numbers vs lost heros: Might be the most fun series here. 30-70
1v1 : fake tom numbers vs lost heros: Sorry Los the ros but tom said he would win
1v1 : RTM vs Miyoko: You gonna beat the guy calling himself cutepuppies? do you hate puppies miyoko??

Ubers UU : OceanicGamer vs Frito love you bro but man you’re getting done dirty this tour in terms of matchups
Ubers UU : Jusfordlolz vs Plague I believe in the old man to pull this one out
Ubers UU : Rasche vs FishyRoads Ubers UU is like league where random children from a different continent than I are unreasonably good
AG : ZowwyCafé♪ vs Fc always bold Fc
ZU : THE_CHUNGLER vs BaitWiz The Chungler gets chungled
 
NFE : Dragonillis vs Zcarlett 70/30 - Sooo what is happening here??? Both teams picked NFE?? I understand the pick from Meloettas but i don't understand the pick from Neighs at all, Zcarlett is the only one who understands how to play this tier and their builder is afk due to exams so they'll have to find a way to get teams or build by themselves and i'm not confident in them building solid teams without support to be completely honest. I think this pairing is the only one who's gonna be kinda close, Zcarlett has played their games fine so i don't see why they would not be able to play well against Drago as well, but i'm very worried about what they're gonna bring.
NFE : LBN vs hex 90/10
NFE : neomon vs crow crumbs 90/10 - I don't think i'ts gonna be close at all for LBN & neomon, they have a lot more experience in the tier, not necessarely in this meta but at least they know how NFE kinda works, and i know Dragonillis is gonna be able to provide solid teams too despite having to build 3 teams this week. Hex & crow crumbs never played the tier and don't have any builder, i would be very surprised to see them win

NFE : horriii vs Thiago Nunes 55/45 - horriii is doing good, i like the teams they're bringing so far and they're playing well, Thiago is excellent but the team he got last week was not as good as i expected honestly, Scraggy is unviable and it showed why in the game, couldn't bring it into the field until it was the last alive and didn't do anything (altho thiago got lucked and would have won last week if para wasn't an OP mechanic). I also feel like horriii is having fun with the building side of the tier and is being creative in a good way which will be a big plus in this matchup. I think both can win, i believe in both teams to provide good teams and i believe in both players to play well, just giving the edge to horriii because i feel like they have the momentum.

NFE : sleid vs stareal 49/51 - Very very close MU, despite sleid's great start i feel like the break stareal got was beneficial for him to come back stronger, stareal had a poor start in UMPL too and won the whole thing and won pretty much every game from like week 5 to the end so record really doesn't mean much. Both will bring solid teams and both will play very well, it could really go either way, i'm bolding stareal because i feel like his redemption arc is coming and he's gonna win the rest, but sleid is the toughest opponent to go against in order to do that.

NFE : 5Dots vs sealoo 70/30 - 5Dots is the better builder and player in my opinion, 5Dots builds are always good and creative whereas sometimes i didn't like sealoo's teams that much, and 5Dots has way more experience in the tier too which makes me think that sealoo is more likely to not do the right plays. Still exciting to see this game and what both are gonna bring but i feel like 5Dots is going to dominate this match.
 
Ubers UU predicts, L O N G edition

OceanicGamer vs Frito
this game can go 3 different ways in my head, i shall describe them
First way that this goes is quite simple, Ocean fails the builder check and simply loses, nothing to be ashamed of, my most likely result, probably the most important part of this game is the builder. Frito wins 90-10, like a 50% chance
Second way is what we all want, Ocean passes the builder check and gets a good if not great matchup, i do believe Ocean beats Frito fairly easy if he gets the good MU although i doubt this happens as Frito is probably the most consistent player building-wise, Ocean wins 65-35, around a 35% chance
Third way is what we in the industry call cheese, Ocean can very realistically attempt to rob Frito out of a win, is this a good move? Perhaps so, he is clearly an underdog and knowing him it is not below him to bring certain matchup fishes, Frito is also quite vulnerable to them at times, still giving an edge to her as cheese is cheese. 15% chance, Frito 60-40
Overall Frito wins 70-30

Jusfordlolz (AKA IncredibleKing) vs Plague (AKA Kai)
This is the game i am most excited for this week's MUs (although keep up with SUUberbowl we have some really cool ones there). On one side, we have my good friend Incredible King, he has built some very weird teams recently, notably lots of Smeargle teams (of which i dislike heavily), his teams are very hit or miss, and there is no real advantage to metagame knowledge against them. On the other side we have fellow brazilian Kai (tmj), who has a very lackluster support for the tier, i believe the mashers to have a very flawed Ubers UU core as i sincerely doubt FC will help and maybe Skyiew is doing some stuff for them but i don't think that is either the case or that it is very beneficial, even though this is true, King's unorthodox teams make so that it's not really necessary to know the meta to do well against him, do think this game is mostly coming down to actual play, on which i'll give the edge to Incredible due to tier familiarity, 57-43

Baddy vs Dorron
Dorron is someone i really like to watch in tournament, specifically due to his nature of going into games with some hillarious teams, i know he has been pretty busy lately but has been playing pretty well recently. I don't have much knowledge on what Baddy uses on tournament although i am aware he has been doing alright for this tournament (going 2-1 losing to xu), if i was to base this purely on this tour's performance, i'd say Dorron wins, but as I have learned, Dorron will lose 90% of games. Uhhhhhhh, predicting Dorron games is hard, 55-45 Dorron the explorer

Quinn vs QBking
i have very little information to go off of for this game, genuinely no clue who Quinn is, my take is that the more I hate QB the better he will do and therefore my prediction goes as follows:
