mind gaming Holy sheesh, you're a beast. I can't thank you enough for the help you provided in the last weeks. I think I wouldn't have made it this far without you. This was my favourite team by far: vs DonSalvatore (pokepast.es)
Sylvi Best Oras Support I could have ever imagined. You helped me out in Invitational as well as this Masters run. Thank you so much and I'm looking forward to team in SPL with you. Your scouts were pretty helpful as well.
Trickster7 Thanks for supporting me every time but not against xray (fuck you for that), but it was always fun to talk with you and your help was still nice, especially the scouts <3 (Please pick this guy up next time ngl)
Achimoo Danke! (Please pick this guy up next time fr)
-Howkings Thanks for giving me a confidence boost every single week! I really appreciate it, but when Germany? >.<
Fogbound Lake You're so inspirational. Gushing time is my favourite one. Looking forward to the future with ya!

gz Michael you showed that your title of "der Beste" is well deserved. Beautiful champion!
Great performance don, be proud of your run
, even if I know that the final defeat is hard to swallow.

A fact and a few stats the world might find interesting:
With this win Michi has become the second best german on smogon ever, right behind Conflict.
He also is the first german able to call 2 individual trophies his own.
The full german smogon hall of fame is as follows:
4 - Conflict / SPL 2 + SPL 5 + SPL 7 + Classic 9
2 - MichaelderBeste2 / Smogon Tour 35 + Smogon Masters 1
2 - DarkLucario / SPL 2 + Smogon Tour 8
2 - ict / SSD 1 + Grand Slam 5
2 - Lowgock / SPL 6 + Grand Slam 3
2 - FOMG / SPL 10 + SPL 11
2 - mind gaming / SCL 1 + SCL 3
2 - Leru / SSD 2 + SPL 12
1 - erz / SPL 12
1 - Fakes / SPL 4
1 - Fogbound Lake / SCL 3
1 - Lacus Ichinose / SSD 1
1 - RaiZen1704 / SPL 14
1 - Relous / SPL 12
1 - Sapientia / SPL 2
1 - Serpi / SPL 14
1 - Steve Angello / SPL 7
1 - xray / SPL 13
Overall my friends managed to accumulate 7 trophies in the official 2023 tournaments, more than ever before in one year.
(Serpi & Raizen SPL 14 / Michi Smogon Tour 35 / Conflict Classic 9 / Mind & Fog SCL 3 / Michi Smogon Masters 1)
Combined with the fact that (i believe) 7 out of 18 players that went for >20k in SPL are german (38,8%) the numbers would suggest that this is the strongest german players have ever been. A lot of it is because of respective old gen mastery but i'm wishing 2024 Germany the best to finally claim the blue after being as close as 1 finals tiebreak axel miss away in 2021.

Congratz.
If this is the best player Germany has to offer then I'm afraid they are pretty doomed.
