Tie Rules
Battle ties do not progress either player towards winning the match.

General Tournament Rules:
  • Identity: I expect many battles to be completed under alts. This can be bad for tournament security, and thus I will make this clear: If I hear any whispers of identity theft (battling as someone you are not) or proxy battling (helping someone else battle through pm) I will not be pleased and I will take severe actions.​
  • Timer Clause: As for taking long between moves, if your opponent asks you to hurry up, please oblige. If you are doing a damage calc for a key turn that is one thing, but prolonging every move is suspicious and annoying. Don't do it. Furthermore, Battle Timeout is a rule for a reason. If you run out of time, you lose, simple as that. It does not matter what your opponent says. Do not battle if you think you will have to leave mid battle, and instead reschedule for a better time.​
  • Disconnections: Finally, in the case of a disconnect, the decision is in the hands of the player who did not disconnect. The options are: redo the battle move for move, redo the battle with the same teams but different moves, or redo the battle with completely different teams. If the battle was without a doubt over, they may also take the win. Any suspicion that a disconnect was committed on purpose to redo a match may be appealed to me, and if I feel this happened there will be severe consequences, don't do it.​

won the second set in 3, ggs.

I'll probably edit this tomorrow to make a few shoutouts, but I wanted firstly to congratulate Ahsan for his incredible run, I'm glad to see someone as creative as you going this far in the tournament, you truly bring some fresh air to the tier with your teams. The games were a bit haxxy and I know you'd have deserved as well, but eh, Pokémon...

Alright,

- Huge thanks to Clementine and Carkoala for helping me with the prep eventhough I'm a pain to prep with, always a pleasure to collaborate with you, funniest persons I've met on this website :worrywhirl:
- Shoutouts to everyone on Bourg-Trésor, you guys have become a big part of my life over the last years, hope I made y'all proud after all these years playing this game <3
- s/o to the Thunderbirds both from 2020 and 2021, thanks again for the encouragements, you are all the goats, c'est nous la nouvelle scène francophone :pimp: (Emeral should consider to stop picking me in teamtours, he already did 4 times, I remember someone saying I keep his mom hostage lmao)

- s/o to the Garchomp of Firmament roster, it's been 3 years and we're still in touch, I'll get to see you irl for sure someday, luv u guys <3
- And lastly, s/o to all the French community, couldn't dream of a better support, I'll do my best to perform on the international scene (might be very soon ? :eyes:)

You have no idea how proud I am to see one of my very first friends finally get his solo tour W after close to 4 years now
You are a phenomenal player who was able to overcome his weaknesses (mainly when it came to team choice, self confidence and obsession with something as bad as Zapdos) and I'm so glad to see you get the results you've been deserving for a long time now
hoping this can lead to better teamtour results cause that's the main thing you'd need to fix to reach the big big scene

but you still lost to mono horse LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
