Smogon Tournament #12 Discussion Thread

For those unsure, here's how OST works:

- The tournament will have a best of three format. This means that players will play until one of them wins two games.

- This will later change to a best of five format when there's 16 or 24 players remaining, depending on tournament size, requiring a player to win three games to complete the set.

- Standard rules and causes.

- The winner takes home a $100 CASH PRIZE and a shiny gold pixel trophy too.



This thread will serve as a discussion point for the tournament.

Please discuss match predicts, games played, metagame shifts, new rising stars everything tournament related!

Obviously too early to say, I hope we don't have a repeat of the style situation last year, while they're are some obvious negatives with this being a cash prize tournament, I do think that the incentive of a prize may inspire some new unheard of players to really up their game. I would not be surprised if we see a relatively unknown player win this.

We had a pretty close situation with 2D over 3D trying to ghost lol. Also, on an unrelated note, has anyone else noticed ttar usage skyrocketing during this tour?

Firstly this probably belongs in the actual OST thread

Secondly, telling someone "I'm free whenever" and "I'm on now lets play now" doesn't count very much toward trying to schedule a game. This isn't really considering your opponent's schedule at all. The whole point is to actually work together to figure out a time that works for both of you.
