To handle all DC cases...you're gonna submit your teams before the match. Zebraiken and Oglemi, who are not playing nor affiliated with any team, will manage this team submission form. You don't have to submit, but if you do, you protect yourself from the opponent taking a win. If you do DC (and you can't rejoin the battle) and you haven't submitted your team, your opponent will have the right to take the win. Yes, I'll most likely make a judgment call if he is on his last turn with 1 Pokemon at 5% and paralyzed and with you at 6 100% health Pokemon, because the only way to lose this is to misclick multiple times. However, if you're at 6 100% Pokemon and your opponent is at last Pokemon 10% needing to crit flinch you 6 - 12 times for the win, I'll give him the win if you DC and haven't submitted your team.
I know people like Philip7086 will beg me "to use common sense for a judgment call" for all cases and I would normally agree, but I am giving you all a 100% out by allowing you to submit your team. Basically, submit your team, and protect yourself and your team from any and all DCs. It's a simple procedure that removes almost all subjectivity from a decision regarding a DC. Unlike with the scheduling restrictions, all you have to do is submit the team your are using at anytime before the match takes place, and you'll have 100% protected yourself. Read this rule and understand this now before you join the tournament. Since I'm stating this now, I'm basically going to ignore you if you DC, didn't submit a team, and "had a guaranteed win." Expect it. Also note that I'm going to let the PLAYER (not the team), decide whether he is going to take the win or go another route (replay same moves, replay different teams, etc.).
it is very mr.e of you to comment on how someone else has had a negative experience and turn it around to be "well look at my RNG i had it much worse!"I mean, if you don't wanna play GSC then don't play GSC but I don't understand why you would avoid it because you had "a pretty shitty experience on all non-in game related accounts." That's... not a problem with the GSC metagame and quitting on it isn't going to help anything.
I started out 1-4 due to typical-only-for-me luck, three games where I was 90%+ favored and then whatever the fuck asspull of godly RNG Earthworm pulled on me. At that point, my team was already out of playoff contention and the best I can manage now is salvaging a barely respectable 4-5 record so don't even try to out-shitty-experience me. Boohoo. I'm not saying I had any problems with my teammates so don't read into something that isn't there.

Cause your team sucks and you were out of play offs contention by week 5Lost vs Cicada, gg.
Thank god this season is over, lol! No matter what I try to say here, this one SPL was the one I enjoyed the least, and I really don't know why exactly, 'cause my teammates were actually pretty cool guys (well, most of them) and I could win a few enjoyable games after all, despite the hax that will always exist. Maybe it's just because there was little to no time for me to prepare like I wanted to for some weeks. But in the end, Pokémon is just a really bad game where you can win off a 0.01% match anyday, which is both absurd and nice at the same time. I guess it's about time I take Heist's route and actually only play if I have time and motivation, rather than just trying it for the pixels.
After this little rant, I just wanna throw my support to Wolfpack, as that was my team for 3 years in a row and there are cool guys there (except Omfuga)!
Let me give you a hint : jirachi, starmie, zapdos, breloom, tyranitar, random mons.Thank god this season is over, lol! No matter what I try to say here, this one SPL was the one I enjoyed the least, and I really don't know why exactly
I guess you still didn't understand the most important thing about the tier we love: it's the hardest one to build. I, for once, build teams to win matches. Pokémon is far from being the funniest game ever, and especially when I'm part of a team I want to bring a solid team because I don't want to let my teammates down by using a team that can get 6-0'd off the bat. To back me up on this, I'll quote a legendary player:Let me give you a hint : jirachi, starmie, zapdos, breloom, tyranitar, random mons.
So, between using the same mons achieving wins or being the metagame innovator, I prefer the former. If you prefer being the latter, fine, good for you! If you win your last match this season you'll reach like what, 8 wins throughout the SPLs? That I've gotten in a single season. But hey, maybe Masterclass is right about my SPL team being bad, the results are there to show it.One more thing about DP is I find it hard to be creative in it. I don't know why, but it feels impossible to use something fun that also works. I always try to have fun and use weird stuff in other gens (I mean I missed around a lot with XY and BW), but whenever I tried it in DP it just fails really.
