​
  • Follow all general tournament rules.
  • Schedule via Smogon VMs. It's easier for us to make decisions for activity calls when we 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 us 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 a 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.

4 teams left standing.
The United Kingdras have weathered the storm of hate thus far. Fragments seems to have weathered the weekly barrages of mockery, while Baddy and Kry have led the Kingdras to a stunning undefeated record and 13 points to their name. On the battlefield, the Kingdras have been similarly superlative, with 10 of their 12 slots going uniformly positive and 7 players locking up 5 wins or more. Can the Kingdras ride the wave, or will they fail to make a splash at all?

Meanwhile, the Oblivion Ambers have fared much differently. Led by MirrorSaMa, emoxu9, and SpaceSpeakers, they have climbed back from a 1-2-0 start to grab the last playoff spot in a tight race with the Doom Desire Jirachis. With emoxu9 leading by example at a stellar 6-1 record and Fancy1 sitting pretty on a 5-1 record of their own, they have yet another hill to climb in the face of the yet-indomitable Kingdras. Will they be able to summit it, or will they fall to their namesake oblivion?
​
On the other side of the bracket:
The Star Plasma Vessels have been strong this year, with their only losses being to the two teams mentioned above. Despite unfortunate circumstances, zastra and Lord Rekkuza have guided their ship to 2nd place in the table, and with Slikkles deputizing, the Vessels hope to take home the trophy and mount their playoff push. The Vessels have been led by committee, with all of their players getting at least 1 game, while Close has led the pack at a 5-2 record. Will the Vessels complete their voyage, or will they sink in the storm?

They match up against the Mane Remover squad, a tough foe to face in their own right. With a terrifying UUbers core of captain Frito leading the charge at a 6-1 record with Iride pairing perfectly at a 5-1 scoreline, alongside some strong players in other slots with 4 other players raking in 4 wins each, the Remover look to shave off any enemies in their way. Will they be able to remove the competition, or will they only remove themselves?​

:kingdra: United Kingdras (6) vs (5) Oblivion Ambers :zacian-crowned:
1v1 (Bo7): RADU vs Fancy1 - more consistent player this tour, but gonna be a really cool match regardless
1v1 (Bo5): Mist vs frogfacts - come on goat <3333
2v2 (Bo5): Evie vs fake tom numbers - tom seems to lack of motivation whilst evie has been playing fantastically
2v2 (Bo5): bern vs maybca - whilst bern has been on a crazy hot streak maybca's had some very interesting builds and I think this game is gonna be tight, could go either way
AG: Skyiew vs emoxu9 - the two best AG performers of the tour squaring off, its going to be insanely hype to watch and I'm gonna refrain from taking a side until after the match has ended :blobthumbsup:
AG: Jojen vs Glory - another blockbuster match but im gonna give the edge to jojen just cause of how strongly they've performed in my eyes
NFE: Horii vs Shing - both players have had great seasons, yet another toss up of a match up, but the building behind the kingdra's feels a little too difficult to beat.
NFE: Ivar57 vs Mirbro - Whilst I would love to see a Mirbro win, and I entirely think its within their grasp particularly with their insane builds, Ivar57's performances speak for themselves.
UUbers: Taka vs Mozonite - just been playing too insanely well to predict against at this point in the tour
UUbers: Dugtrio is Broken vs Shadow079 - the kingdra's uubers has been entirely reliant upon Taka and I dont see them pulling out enough to grab a second win here, + shadow is goated
ZU: THE_CHUNGLER vs Irene - both just positive so far in the tour, but i think the advantage is in irene's favour, tho excited to see what both teams build for this week
ZU: Ninja vs O1V7O2X9O - afraid they'll bench me again in ccc ;-; (no but fr they are both great players but I like the wifi password's brings slightly more)

:kyurem: Star Plasma Vessels (7) vs (5) Mane Remover :flutter mane:
1v1 (Bo7): lost heros vs DripLegend - the vessels have the better building power behind them imo
1v1 (Bo5): Close vs Nuxl - as above
2v2 (Bo5): Blanched vs Kaif - Kaif's best performances have been more convincing then blanched's so far, but could go either way
2v2 (Bo5): Arcanine1929 vs LogIce - the greater experience with the tier will pay off here imo
AG: Bread Sandwich vs Lyna - whilst the vessel's ag core has had a hit or miss performance so far, I think that if they bring out all the stops they will be unstoppable now
AG: ZowwyCafé♪ vs RL - as above
NFE: Kingler vs Terracotta - terracotta has proven to be an absolute steal this tour
NFE: The Strap vs bleahey - i dont know quite enough of bleahey to pick them in semis, tho hope they have their chance to shine in this tour though
UUbers: Slikkles vs Frito - just been playing absolutely insanely so far, almost a no brianer to hl even tho slikkles has been very solid asw
UUbers: dunoks vs Iride - another mane on a hot streak
ZU: big tony 2014 vs Fille - fille has impressed me a lot so far this tour
ZU: One Last Kiss vs PlayaBeavs - both very solid players, could go either wway.
 
I've been predicting the ZU and NFE only every week, but its semifinals, so I figured I'd finally try my hand at all the tiers I didn't do. I've been attempting it for FL anyways so let's see how this goes. Keep in mind I only claim to know know ZU and I list NFE on my resume to make it look better.

:kingdra: United Kingdras (0) vs (0) Oblivion Ambers :zacian-crowned:
1v1 (Bo7): RADU vs Fancy1 (my go-to strat when predicting tiers I don't know is to open the sheet and hope. RADU isn't doing bad but Fancy1 is doing good)
1v1 (Bo5): Mist vs frogfacts (the ambers 2nd 1v1 slot isn't doing as well as the first)
2v2 (Bo5): Evie vs fake tom numbers (kingdras 2v2 has 3 losses - 1 to tom and 2 to last week. logic says bold tom but i already bolded maybca and this is definitely a 1-1 2v2 MU)
2v2 (Bo5): bern vs maybca (maybca is just playing every tier this tour huh, theyre 3-3 so we'll see how it goes)
AG: Skyiew vs emoxu9 (apparently this'll be a great battle, i did open the sheet and bold the 7-0 however, which unjustly undercuts the 6-1 record (sorry).)
AG: Jojen vs Glory (I didn't just look at the sheet records for this one, I also looked at the last head-to-head, which Jojen won)
NFE: Horii vs Shing (I'm not jinxing Horii or Shing no thanks)
UUbers: Taka vs Mozonite (moz is cool and a real one but i opened the sheet and bolded the 7-0)
UUbers: Dugtrio is Broken vs Shadow079 (I'm pretty sure this is Shadow's main tier, and somehow Kingdras UUbers Slot 2 is 0-7)

:kyurem: Star Plasma Vessels (0) vs (0) Mane Remover :flutter mane:
1v1 (Bo7): lost heros vs DripLegend (Vessels Bo7 hasn't been very consistent this tour, and while they're by no means doing bad I think Drip has shown a little more consistency)
1v1 (Bo5): Close vs Nuxl (most of Nuxl's loses were to players doing really good this tour. However, Im tired and I thought Close v Drip was gonna be a close MU, and then I realized they weren't playing.)
2v2 (Bo5): Blanched vs Kaif (They're both expensive and have similar records. Blanched beat Kaif last time and my gut was also telling me to go Blanched)
2v2 (Bo5): Arcanine1929 vs LogIce (arcanine has only one loss, and I can't bold the guy who lost to meth master (dont look up how i did vs methmaster in zu swiss))
AG: Bread Sandwich vs Lyna (Lyna is a very NFE friendly name)
AG: ZowwyCafé♪ vs RL (I'm not too familiar with either's game, but at a glance I expect Zowwy to win)
UUbers: Slikkles vs Frito (see below)
UUbers: dunoks vs Iride (when you open the sheet and see 2 UUbers on the top and you don't know what you're doing, you bold the 2 ppl at the top of the sheet. the vessels have a fine UUbers but i don't think there'll be an upset)
 
:kingdra: United Kingdras (7) vs (5) Oblivion Ambers :zacian-crowned:
1v1 (Bo7): RADU vs Fancy1 I'm not going to elaborate on anything other than 2v2 because im lazy :D
1v1 (Bo5): Mist vs frogfacts
2v2 (Bo5): Evie vs fake tom numbers i thought tom cancered this tour ngl... just going to assume he has 0 motivation and isnt going to try too hard, if tom actually has motivation I would bold him. 60-40
2v2 (Bo5): bern vs maybca I would love to see maybca win this one, but bern has been playing really good lately and idt it's going to stop, i still genuinely don't understand how Kingdras 2v2 slots are like 12-2 but... sure i guess. This is gonna be a fun set to watch tbh, gl to both, 68-32
AG: Skyiew vs emoxu9
AG: Jojen vs Glory random bolding lfg
NFE: Horii vs Shing
NFE: Ivar57 vs Mirbro
UUbers: Taka vs Mozonite
UUbers: Dugtrio is Broken vs Shadow079
ZU: THE_CHUNGLER vs Irene
ZU: Ninja vs O1V7O2X9O
 
I'm making these predicts without looking at who won the first time around cause idt that's often a good indicator of how the runback will go and it's also just less fun to use "well they beat them before" in every predict explanation

Star Plasma Vessels (7) vs (5) Mane Remover
1v1 (Bo7): lost heros vs DripLegend - lost is a very competent player but I imagine drip is gonna absolutely lock in here and that would be a problem for anyone
1v1 (Bo5): Close vs Nuxl - eli has had mid season while close is looking close to his prime again (pun intended), maybe manes pull out some nasty prep here tho
2v2 (Bo5): Blanched vs Kaif - obligatory kaif bold but blanched is def good enough to take this, I think he'll have to come up with something really cool in the builder
2v2 (Bo5): Arcanine1929 vs LogIce - I think the building coming outta manes is better but arc is still the historically more accomplished 2v2er so it's hard to bold against him
AG: Bread Sandwich vs Lyna - lyna is decent but only has 1 win on the board vs a non-ag player, bread hasn't had the best season but at least has some good wins vs mains
AG: ZowwyCafé♪ vs RL - I rate zowwy higher, RL might have the prep advantage which could turn the tide but I still believe in zowwy's ability to outplay this one
NFE: Kingler vs Terracotta - terra has exceeded expectations while kingler has fallen short, I still kinda wanna bold kingler cause I believe in his skills but idk where his motivation is at rn
NFE: The Strap vs bleahey - strap has looked alright for most of the season while bleahey's recent nfe accolades only amount to beating up a poor defenseless dolliv
UUbers: Slikkles vs Frito - manes strongest core vs vessels weakest, slikkles is def viable but this game and the next are two massive uphill battles that vessels have to tackle
UUbers: dunoks vs Iride - same comment as above, just don't see vessels taking home an uubers game, but maybe we'll see a crazy upset and all lose our minds
ZU: big tony 2014 vs Fille - both have looked pretty good and have similar records, bolding tony on familiarity and more history in the tier but this one is a tossup
ZU: One Last Kiss vs PlayaBeavs - another case of similar seasons, again bolding on familiarity with olk but beavs is the mainer here and could pull up with some heat
