Smogon Tour 22

Not open for further replies.

It is time once more for arguably the most popular and prestigious tournament on Smogon: Smogon Tour. This will be the 22nd season and the last of the current generation. This not only means the last before Sun and Moon but also the last ever season with DPP OU! Make sure you don't miss out on this.

The Smogon Tour is a series of Live Tournaments starting this time on the 2nd of September. The format is the same as usual, consisting of the three most recent OU generations (ORAS OU, BW2 OU and DPP OU, in this very order). The Live part of the tournaments will last 9 weeks where everyone will earn a certain amount of points according to their weekly performances. Once this phase is over, we'll move to Playoffs with the 16 best players of the tournament. The winner of the Smogon Tour will obtain the glorious Pink Trophy (
), and the honour of being crowned as Smogon's last ever Gen 4-6 Smogon Tour champion.

As usual, all the tournaments will take place on the smogtours server, unless stated otherwise. The times at which they will start are unchanged and are as follow:
  • 6 pm EDT on Fridays.
  • 4 pm EDT on Saturdays.
  • 2 pm EDT on Sundays.

Remember that you can only join two tours per week. You cannot make a new account to circumvent the rule either. Also, you are not allowed to ask for wins, offer wins, or interfere in other people's battles (ghosting them or their opponent). If you do any of the aforementioned, be prepared to get infracted and potentially banned from our Tournaments. We will take retroactive actions if needed.

Take a look at this page for more information about how Smogon Tour works and how you can participate (stick to the Rules section, the Schedule and Standings one are not up to date).

You can expect all of the usual this season: Soge alts, ghosting scandals, matchup complaints, host complaints, and of course, many Scald burns. So, the question now is... will someone actually go Chomper here? That and who will become the Smogon Tour Season 22 champion?

Good luck to all!
 
Will anything be done to improve the fact that people hide on alts for 15 minutes and wait until the next round is about to be posted to challenge you??

/user isn't 100% effective and honestly if my opponent says "brb in 2 minutes then we can play" and then challenges me 10 minutes later there's nothing I can do even if I can find what alt they're on :/

I understand one probably shouldn't use the same team every round in a row (even though I mostly did this last season), but also giving the opponent so much time to prep given knowledge of all the teams you've used in either past rounds or past weeks is kind of frustrating.
