Tournament UUFPL II - Chapter 7: The Light Beyond the Stars

:mad:DOUBLE SUB ALERT:mad:

Due to scheduling and availability issues, the GSC game between the Yolo Swag Poliwags and the Saur True Venusaurs now requires a Double Sub.

The Poliwags :Poliwag: will sub in Trevelion for Juno. The Venusaurs :Venusaur: will sub in Estarossa

Also the format has been changed to GSC UUBLs pursuant to the rules and guidelines in the Celebiii tournament, but Bo1 (unless they gentlemans to Bo3)

Good luck!

It was a good run team!

GGs.

I enjoyed teaming up with you guys and I can't deny that UUFPL once more has succeeded in bringing me much closer to the underused community as well as current gen as whole.

Thanks to Accel Volk Banbadoro dunoks Spitfire arcanine for helping me out with my teams.

Dunoks you've been a good captain. Same goes to Brexus

Celebiii good job and good luck.
and best of luck to all the other players in the pool. If I have a regret it's that I become my own worst enemy when prepping for these tournaments and panic. I know that we have bad runs but as a team member I feel at least partly responsible for my two losses (the first vs Airfare) the second making a bad call vs Thor, who up until our match gave me the strong feeling would have been ready for me taking it slow.


Edit: when I realized this I had to include it. IT IS CRIMINAL THAT I HAVE THE PRE-CONTRIBUTOR BADGE AND BFM DOES NOT. Please fix this. He has done so much for the underused community and honestly I think that this tournament is one of the most fun events out there. Thank you.

Looks like cherryb0ng beat me to it... well, I also want to do a few quick shoutouts. Obviously, I will start by shouting out the entire Kakuna Matata team. It was a lot of fun and I think we gave it our all. We had a few rough patches here and there, but I think we worked well together and made a pretty solid team overall. Thanks for the fun tournament and thanks for drafting me. We'll get 'em next time.

Thanks to BigFatMantis and Monky25 for hosting. Among the detailed spreadsheet, the Bench Challenges, the All Star week, and the plot, this is probably the most robust and detailed tournament on Smogon. I hope y'all get to host again. (By the way, can we please get BigFatMantis a Pre-Contributor Badge or something? Not within my power, but it definitely feels like he deserves it unless I'm missing something.)

Thanks to itsjustdrew, Permission Slip, and anyone else who contributed to the UUFPL Podcast. They're always fun to listen to and satisfy a very particular niche in the Pokemon Community. I hope you can continue making them.

Thanks to the RBY pool for keeping this tournament interesting and competitive. I'm always happy to see this tier get some representation in tournament. Maybe we'll end up in UUPL one day. Special shoutout to Unowndragon who dominated the pool and showed how consistent a strong player can be in RBY UU. Going 6-0 (maybe 7-0 or more soon) is incredible; it's a shame we never got to face off. Also, great work by stunner047, who also had a very dominant performance. I'm not sure if this was your first RBY UU Tournament, but it was an impressive start if it was and I hope it encourages people to start you in the future. Keep these names in mind for RBYPL III folks.

Thanks to my sparring partner Shellnuts for helping me prepare in one or two weeks and always helping me improve in my favorite tier. Similarly, thanks to May for encouraging me to join this tournament. I would have liked to be a part of your team, but I still had a great time with Kakuna Matata and I guess I can't blame you for drafting Unowndragon.

Finally, a big thanks to TheKingKarp for (most likely) agreeing to a dead game this week, because I am just tired now.

Thanks all, and maybe I'll see you here next year. Cheers!

Venusaurs sorry we didn't have a better season :( it was nice getting to know all of you though and i hope you do well in future tours! especially 5-1 carry omicorio and the heart of our team Venuesaur who we initially got just for the name NGL but is genuinely super nice and a hard worker that deserves to be in more of these tours :]
