​

NDMPL is right around the corner and we're now looking for managers. Only post if you would like to sign up to manage a team. You won't get to pick your assistant manager; instead, you can draft a player during the draft and appoint one of your drafted players as your assistant manager. You can buy yourself in as a manager for 20k.

There will be 6 teams each with a budget of 112k, each team will have six players and 2 substitutes minimum, 4 substitutes maximum. In your manager signup please include which format you would prefer for the tournament; 6 National Dex Monotype BO1 Slots or 5 National Dex Monotype BO1 Slots + 1 National Dex Monotype BO3 Slot. Additionally, if enough interest is shown we may add a Monothreat slot in.

We reserve the right to reject bad team names. This thread will be open for approximately a week (until May 2nd @ 5 PM EST)!
