Tournament UMPL V - Commencement
- Thread starter July
- Start date
To every managers that maybe want me :
First of all don’t buy me for more than 5k.
No I don’t play nfe I can support it a lot with my demon spread if I have time. I want to play 2v2 mainly I love this meta but sadly i’m a new player to this and I think I will not go positive in this tier. And I had fun during Ubers uu seasonal so maybe putting me in both slots would be cool from you all. Mainly i’m not hype because i’ll not hide it I don’t want to be in some teams there. But in whatever team i’ll be i’ll do my prep and help where I can if I have time. Gl for auctions

Was going to copypaste my informal UUbers PR that i wrote in UMscord but then this happened
Anyways here's my guide to drafting Ubers UU
DISCLAIMER: the people mentioned may or may not have signed up, they're just the notable names that I remember as having history in the tier. There may be other signups that can competently play Ubers UU, but are not mainers, and I will not necessarily be listing them. This is just meant as a general suggestion in which directions to look if you're unfamiliar with the Ubers UU playerbase, and managers should still do their due diligence when researching.
S Tier: Frito, Baddy
Highest combined value of metagame knowledge and clicking ability. Just about the best you could ask for in your UUbers slot
i forgot that they're managing
Fc tier: Fc
FC might just be the strongest overall clicker in the tier, but touched the tier in a while. He's certainly still capable of playing, it should be taken into account that it might take him a week or two to acclimate.
Ewin tier: Ewin
If Ewin, he'll be in a similar boat to Fc. On the assumption that he does sign however, the bigger caveat for Ewin is that his motivation will likely be the deciding factor in his performance. Despite having a brief period of extreme dominance in the tier many months ago, Ewin's performance in UUFPL and SUUberbowl (check out the Ubers UU subforum) left something to be desired.
A tier: Xu9, Celeste, Fishyroads, Shadow079, Skyiew
Just as if not more metagame knowledge than the S tiers (mostly Celeste for this one), but not nearly as experienced. Still overall quite strong and not all that inferior to the S tier options.
B tier: Mozonite, OceanicGamer, Mkap, Dorron, Kabilapok, IncredibleKing, Ineros, Iride, Slikkles
While the tiers above were more closely-packed in terms of skill, this one I'm kind of lumping in all of the "just competent" players, to which their degree of competence varies. These players are still good and certainly capable of going positive, but may struggle to put out a reliable performance for one reason or another (less knowledge in the tier, lack of experience, etc). For those that are ok with having a weaker Ubers UU draft, this pool of players are likely to give you a good bang for your buck.
C tier: Valiant Valerie (formerly Lovely Luna), Bazingatron, DDart (formerly avaluggsimp)
Each one of these people are a lovely presence that are sure to be a pleasure in the teamcord, but are those who I find difficult to recommend in good faith as a player. I don't think that any of them could be reliably counted upon as starters, but they are probably decent substitute candidates. DDart in particular also plays NFE which helps their case as a sub.

Some last resources that are probably worth looking at:
Ubers UU Seasonal weeks 1-12
UUFPL V Spreadsheet
UMBD I Spreadsheet (I say as if it isn't 4 clicks away)
glhf and i hope y'all have a great tournament.
