Idk who u are but @ me when u win a wcup game
3rd year will be the charm right?
Now that east is out I can finally get to writing my shout out post so I’m not going to waste time with a long introduction and just get right to it although I hope I don’t come off as too preachy.
The captain of our team you held down what was supposed to be our weakest spot going into the tour in bw and you learning the tier was a great achievement and definitely took the stress of off the rest of team for that slot. I hope I’ll be able to one day properly manage with you but we’ll have to see. Mubs out.
James the cocaptain that rose up to help manage with Mubs I am obviously grateful for what you did for us morale-wise as well as building. You carried dpp on your back and also helped in the sm slots you were one hell of a player and builder. Getting to talk with you in vc the couple times we did really made me feel like I got to know you and I’m happy I did.
While this tour unfortunately didn’t meld to well with your schedule and building help for you was sort of sparse I am still glad you decided to play with us and hopefully next year we will get to actually build together like you promised ;)
Despite this not being the best year for you I still would have asked you to play with us if I had to do it all over again. You were a great help always coming up with weird ideas and while they didn’t always work northeast wouldn’t be the same without you so just keep on doing what you’re doing and don’t let the haters stop you I know with time you will hit your stride and become the ss player northeast needs
With the most lines by a large margin in the server it’s no surprise how much of a help you were. Both your building help as a sub in more than just the ss slots and as a player for the team you were a great help and you definitely proved your worth. Continue to build and play and I have high hopes for you as a player
First off you have too many names secondly you did amazing in pools and you going 3-0 was imperative for making playoffs and you are showing again and again your sm prowess
You stepping up for us in sm when we had a lack of confident sm2 slots was a great help to the team and you pulled through in the important games and giving us a shot to make tiebreak so thanks for that. In time I know you can become a good sm player once you get more experienced with the tier so I hope to see you continue to do well in whatever tiers you end up playing
I’m sorry we didn’t get off the best start but I am glad to have you in the oras slot. There were hiccups here and there but overall you played super solid for us and I couldn’t really ask for more. I hope you’ll think about playing for east next year despite the bumps along the way but ultimately that decision is up to you so we’ll see that next year.
The goat himself you were such a great help for us in both ss and dpp and I feel you were the one I was in vc with the most and just having someone to talk to while building made me feel much more confident with the teams. You were and are a super star and your attitude definitely kept the rest of the team’s spirit uplifted so we wouldn’t be here without you
You were so much help for us in sm you provided so many teams for akuma and nar as well as helping with ss in vc a bunch it was a great help and you were an integral reason for the success of our sm slots so I’d pat yourself on the back for that one
I have no idea how many d’s are in your name but it’s way too many holy shit but besides that you were a super useful in ss from building in vc or simply checking teams it was great to be able to have someone like that catching our mistakes
Same thing with dedddddddd you have a horrendous name choice every time I would mention you in call I would feel like I’m insulting you but you do you. And just like deddddddd you were a great help for the ss slots so thanks for being helpful even when you weren't officially on the team
Bro why did you have to get banned holy shit learn how to not alt for 0 reason anyways once you get unbanned I hope you end up playing for east again but besides that you were super helpful between popping in every slot like sm for akuma and bw for mubs and the ss support here and there was super appreciated so I hope I’ll actually be able to play with you next year so don’t do anything stupid to get yourself banned again my god
Thank you so much for not spamming jawn I would have gone crazy if you did. Aside from that you were helpful in both sm and ss and I wouldn’t doubt if 95% of mentions of haxorus came for you but it worked when it needed so that’s good at least but in all seriousness you were a great help
I totally forgot to include you with the rest of the starting lineup but I can’t be bothered to put you there now but anyways you sorta stuck to yourself but you helped a bit in oras and I know that if anything went wrong when we needed a sub you would help so that reassurance was nice.
Don’t let dumb semantics like “where you live” dissuade you from the fact you are east and will always be east no amount of gerrymandering will change that. Anyways I got to talk to you a bit and really get to know you and it was genuinely just interesting and the bits and pieces of advice for our sm/ss a bit was also appreciated so just continue to be aidan
The man himself your sheer presence alone catapulted our viability through the roof and just having a chill person to talk to was nice to have
I’d like to thank you for helping us in sm even if it was only here and there it went a long way and hopefully you will play for east next year but for that we’ll just have to wait and see
Nothing too complicated to say just thanks for the ss help here and there hopefully when sice comes back you and him can tear the rest of the ss playerbase
Last eastie but certainly not least it was a shame your schedule didn’t really give you the shot to shine for east but life’s more important than mons anyways so I’m happy for you. Maybe next year will be better but who knows just continue living your best life
The first honorary eastie you helped us in dpp after rip india but I’m very grateful for it. I loved vcing with you and complaining about your inferior pronunciations and I’m glad you helped us a bit even if nothing came of it
My man frosty you are awesome we would not have come even close to potentially beating seu if it wasn’t for you and your teams for nar and frag and you also just the goat overall not much more can be said about you, you’re just amazing big thanks
Deg crawling back to mubs in hopes of doing better than last pl and not losing in semis but unfortunately we catgirls are doomed to repeat ourselves Im very thankful you were helping a bit in oras and bw but also big thanks for helping tenzhii out that was immaculate support
I didn’t expect you to really help that much I just wanted you in the server cause you’re chill but you helped more than I expected so a lot of thanks for that
Joined solely for frag provided 1 team and somehow made a sylv which was so unoptimized that you wasted 56 evs but regardless thanks for the help although we never got to use the team for frag I’m still thankful you helped us out there
Holy shit that was long I’m an absolute dumbass for writing all that but whoever is dumb enough to read every single one might be dumber . Being able to unofficially manage east was a super great experience and I’m glad I got that opportunity however things must come to an end and I’m probably leaving mons for good and idk who really cares that much but I would like to just put my closing thoughts here cause I have the opportunity. I loved being part of this community even if in my opinion some aspects of it have gone downhill Ive spent countless hours playing 1v1 and I met so many people and I’m thankful for that time. I couldn’t even begin to thank each and every person but if I had to try I have to thank all the Zoomers which even if it died it was an experience like nothing else I felt like I was surrounded by friends in a time in my life when it seemed like I was all alone so from the bottom of my heart thank you. Then all the people I met by extension you all know who you are so thank you. Best of luck to everyone and sorry for getting preachy that’s about it. Mubs out

ggs south
we had a decent run but then I + presumably some other people choked massively in semis, it is what it is
I think I’m negative on the sheet again FUCK
my first time starting in wc and it went okay, beat nar and arai and lost to kent in pools which was pretty much what I expected but man I am unhappy with my play vs xander, sorry guys
pqs: thanks for putting up with my bullshit and keeping the team afloat, people were right that you def needed to manage over me. you built like half my teams (the good half) cause I either had no time or was too lazy to build for a tier I increasingly don’t care about, and I think you did the same for most of the roster as well LOL. ur the goat man. the day you get a life is the day south loses all viability.
deg: I am so happy you and ltchy are cyber sexing or whatever the fuck cause when I said pqs built half of south’s teams I think you built the other half. am I amazed that someone of your age is still interested in mons? yes. but so long as you’re having fun keep doing it dude. if you guys could please not break up before next year I would greatly appreciate it.
edgar: other sm player on the team hi. have fun with ag (the community of which is allegedly a shithole, which from my exp with 1v1 means that it’s full of perfectly nice people).
airfare: would it kill you to act like a normal human being for 5 seconds. otherwise I think you did pretty well after everyone said you would suck so bully for that I guess. dunno if I’ll see you next year but if I do I’ll be happy.
ltchy: 7
magma: hope you have better luck with whatever else you end up doing in life
if I didn’t mention you I probably forgot you existed, dont take it personally
catch you on the flip flop

I’m honestly ECSTATIC right now, after all my time in 1v1 I was finally able to win a tour and it was the one I cared about the most at that. I couldn’t have asked for a better team and better teammates and for that I’m grateful. I’m so glad I could share this moment with some of my best friends in the community! I won’t get too sappy, it’s not my style and I’m too old for that, but I’ll probably do shoutouts or something later though

ty to central for picking me up again to play bw. The tour was fun to build for even though the level of play for bw has gone down.
we won! WE WON! WE FUCKING WON WOOOOOOOO
after losing two pl finals tiebreakers and losing wc semis in these last 2 years honeslty I wasn't even hoping for it anymore, this was such a fucking ride from start to finish and a banger of a tour, so glad we were able to pull through especially with (mostly) hax-less, entertaining series. I am extremely elated and I can't stop saying it. The only thing this tour lacked was the predicts and various posts from most players throughout the tour, the tour itself felt very dry from a spectator perspective.
I'm also extremely bummed out for going 1-4 but ig bad tours happen eventually, this is my 6th team tour and I haven't gone negative before so it had to happen eventually. I definitely made up for it with activity team support which made our other players win so I can't complain.
That out of the way, I have to give shoutouts, the team was fucking amazing, broken, active, cheerful, fun, and especially had many epic supporters from outside that made the tour much much more manageable
first off DenisTheMenace Close BROTHERS we did it. We've been through so much together and ever since last year's Classic it felt like our trio was just destined to be forever 2nd place but we FUCKING won this shit at long last, it's been a blast playing and managing with you two and I'm glad my first trophy was also alongside you
XSTATIC COLD **** my fat **** you ******* ***** manchild crying ******* sorry you couldn't make the cut, I wish you could've had the trophy as well but unfortunately there is only so much space on the roster and we had to draft the strongest players we had, you know?
eblurb you know, we have our past right? not the best one, of course, but for some reason when I heard you were gonna be on our team I was fucking happy. No joke, I was hyped for it; and I was right, you delivered. I could give zero shits about the fact that you lost in finals, I did as well and it ultimately didnt matter, but your SS building was on POINT and you fucking smashed people in round 1 and semis. Whether it was because of school, because you just weren't feeling it or because you werent able to get smely socks to exert your revenge, its fine, you still were valuable end ended the tour well. If it was the latter reason I'm sorry tho, I just thought this was our best course of action.
Tricking <3
H.M.N.I.P <33 prossimo anno sei da mettere nel roster, che goat.
gorilaa holy shit you were amazing. I care zero about your finals series you had your personal circumstances and its fine, but seeing you build so much and play so well during your first ever team tour was so fucking GAS. You'll definitely get better with time til you become an outstanding player I just know it, your building is fire. I can't wait to see how you do in future tours
LBDC goat man, not much to say, simply an extremely reliable asset to the team. keep winning fam
SoulWind when I heard you were playing this wc I was PUMPED my man, I had heard and seen about how good you were but seeing it firsthand makes me re evaluate whether I actually know what the fuck I'm doing. Great team piloting and you can play fucking anything, I hope I see you again next year <3 had a blast; also thank you for winning the tour.
ACII WTF happened since when are you this fucking GOOD man holy shit. I'm so glad our decision to put you in dpp payed off your picks were RAW
PA I'm so glad you ended up choosing SEU (and I bet you're glad too lmao) and you crushed it in pools. We had our disagreements here and there but thats exactly what I need to keep myself on my toes; sometimes I give shit teams and ideas too and you were there to call me out x)
Lancer Fr bad tour, I know how you feel, I really do. You still hella deserve this trophy, you've been with SEU since longer than I am and you've always been an amazing player. Enjoy your 3rd trophy :^
Tom842 every year I'm always tempted to slot you as started in SS but our starters are just way too fire. I'm sure that if we didn't have a literally broken lineup you'd smash it in SS.
Gohar Kaif you guys are like my actual irl brothers you're with me in every team tour and I can't appreciate that enough, shit is so much easier with you two helping and honestly that gives me so much more security, to know that if everyone else dies you'll still be there to support me <3<3<3
Potatochan I wish I could extend our trophy to you too, half of our wins were yours too. Amazing player and one of the best teambuilders I've ever met, God the day we two actually play on the same team is the day we wipe the whole tournament scene.
dom similarly to Kaif and gohar you're always there to help whenever needed, I don't know if my teams alone would've been enough to win that last oras series. Thank you for everything <3
Jabiru thanks for the dpp help in finals that venu was nasty. I always appreciate when players reach out and actively wanna help us win the tour
crow crumbs you too, thanks for the help
tenzhii god im so tired of saying nice things so l2p dude you were useless honestly northeast would've won if you werent there etc etc (joke)
disaster bingo, ay? at least I succedeed in making a hard one KEK
Lastly, thank you to all the haters for making the win so much more satisfactory, winning a tournament is such an ethereal feeling that I still don't believe we actually won, I'll cherish this feelings for are the worthy opponents that lost.
LETS GO SEU <3
