SS CAP is coming to an end, and there is no better way to celebrate the community that got me on Smogon in the first place than a massive, crazy money tournament! CAP was what first drew me to participate on Smogon, and while I am now active across the site, CAP will always hold a special place for me as the catalyst for my introduction to the community. The prize structure will be as follows:
1st Place: 40% ($400)
2nd Place: 20% ($200)
3rd-4th Place: 10% each ($100)
5th-8th Place: 5% each ($50)
Huge shoutout to the following users who helped me contribute to this absolutely massive prize pool:

the last few rounds since SV's release have lost some hype but i'm personally super excited for this finals. i don't think anyone expected sylveon to make it this deep but it's been very exciting as a spectator to watch them make such an impressive run like this, tho honestly talah vs ewin is the series i'm looking forward to the most (scheduled for 9pm gmt +1 december 1st if anyone else is interested in watching)

technically the finals matchup isn't decided yet given the extension, but i thought it would still be fun to take a look at everyone's brackets so far:

Sylveon used calm mind:
R1: Garrett (act win)
R2: singaporygon (2-1)
R3: Chokepic (2-0)
R4: Dr Professor MD (2-0)
R5: xavgb (act win)
R6: QWILY (2-1)
Quarters: Gray (3-1)
Semis: Joeshh (3-1)

talah:
R1: aauha (act win)
R2: TSR (2-0)
R3: Ado (2-0)
R4: D2theW (2-1)
R5: Reje (2-1)
R6: Maxouille (2-1)
Quarters: Azamat140499 (3-0)

Ewin:
R1: Seatrus (2-0)
R2: TTTech (2-0)
R3: Sulo (2-0)
R4: zS (2-1)
R5: Revenge Killer (2-1)
R6: Lily (2-0)
Quarters: Failbor (3-0)

rooting for talah to take home the $400, theyve been consistently loading a ton of cool stuff in some really entertaining games, but gl to all three :]
