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:

Predictions for top 16! Winners get some of that sweet cash prize!

Sylveon used calm mind vs QWILY: sylveon managed to dodge stresh by some godsend, but QWILY should be able to take this
IronFlashGaming vs Joeshh: the zazo state gets a little richer
shiloh vs crying: awesome matchup, I think crying takes it in 3
Winner of (Reje vs talah) vs Maxouille: may the best non-french win
Failbor vs jonfilch: Failbor's toughest challenge happens to be gaming legend and smogon's resident male model jonathan filchinator
Lily vs Ewin: Another great matchup, I hope it goes to 3 as well.
Andrew M vs Azamat140499: It is more than funny that one of these two players is guaranteed a piece of the pot, but Azamat is my goat after defeating blastablasta so I will bold him all the way.
Gray vs Potatochan: The matchups have not been easy for Potatochan and they aren't getting any easier; however, I will go with them here.

You've Gotta Try
is a Pre-Contributor
Sylveon used calm mind vs QWILY : should win if they schedule properly
IronFlashGaming vs Joeshh
shiloh vs crying : continue to cheerlead for crying
Winner of (Reje vs talah) vs Maxouille : ppl are gonna angry react me for this one but max played very well last round, big L for the french deniers going forward
Failbor vs jonfilch : man both of these players are cool idk who to give it to what a bad mu (i'm lying i am looking forwards to this series)
Lily vs Ewin : idt i've been giving ewin enough credit so enjoy the bold and 10% luck penalty
Andrew M vs Azamat140499 : without question the most important match in this tour thus far, it'd be dishonorable to bold either player here considering all that's happened but i'll personally be rooting for Azamat since they've fought harder to get a shot at the prize money and also brought the craziest counterteam last round
Gray vs Potatochan
