After 3 months (and 2 days) we're finally here, the Grand Finals! These 2 competitors have each defeated 9 powerful opponents on their roads here and proven themselves to be the best amongst the hundreds of entrants and now only 1 match separates one of them from the coveted trophy, and of course, the prize money! OST is Smogon's longest standing tradition in tournaments that has had many great Pokémon players as its winners across the last five generations, and will now crown the first Sword & Shield champion.

Of course none of this would be possible without the contributors who donate their time to make it all happen, so please express your thanks to Blazenix for the art and the hosts, Merritt, SparksBlade, Wigglytuff and especially false :blobthumbsup:

this performance should cement FV's status as one of those top tier players. i think everyone has been underestimating him lately since he managed the last two SPLs instead of playing in them, but man this guy is GOOD. he's been a menace since ORAS was the current gen, and he deserves way more respect as a player than this community gives him.

LETS GOOOOOOOOO FV!!!!!!
 
Expecting FV to take this.

He’s been a consistent performer since his start in the OLT breeding grounds and is one of the all time great sheeters. He’s known for being unreliable with activity/commitment but when he shows up to play he does it well and no one can really deny that. He’s been doing this for longer and has a lot more experience in pressured situations. Mncmt has some impressive games but I can’t say much beyond that.

May the better player win.

mncmt is going to win for sure. He's the Mariano of SS OU (maybe he should change his name to Mrn Drgn). Last game of insult vs FV was clearly a battle between 2 of mncmt's teams meaning he already won this tourney at least in spirit. The only thing between mncmt and his 1k br moneys is the scheduling fight. If he does not accept playing at 6am on like idk a Wednesday, he'll win for sure. Only big thing FV did in his life was taking down the god Lucardinho. After that he just kept copying mncmt's great innovations.

gostosa has a solid edge here.
