Tournaments GSC Grand Slam II

[Siatam]

​

Welcome to the second edition GSC Grand Slam! We are back for another season of thrilling GSC competition spread across five lower tier single elimination tournaments.

The format consists of five separate tournaments: The GSC Ubers Open, The GSC UU Open, The GSC NU Open, The GSC PU Open, and the GSC ZU Open. Depending on your performance in each Open, you will be awarded points. The point system is the same as the one used in Smogon Tour, Smogon Classic and previous years of Smogon Grand Slam (see this for further explanation). When all the Opens have been finished, the eight players with the most points will qualify for playoffs. There, the battlers will duke it out in a single elimination best-of-five series until there is one GSC Grand Slam champion.

Signups for each Open will be posted after the first round of the previous Open is posted. Here is the list of the five Opens and the dates each signups will be posted:

• The GSC ZU Open - Hosted by AV11 - April 8th
• The GSC PU Open - Hosted by cherryb0ng - April 15th
• The GSC NU Open - Hosted by Akeras - April 22nd
• The GSC UU Open - Hosted by a fairy - April 29th
• The GSC Ubers Open - Hosted by vani - May 6th

If a tier shift happens to occur during a round, it will not be taken into account until the following round. Please also keep in mind that this tournament is entirely GSC and does not include metagames from future generations.

Replays are now required for all matches.

Be sure to join the GSC Discord if you have any questions or wish to ask a host about a decision. The spreadsheet will be run by vani, and I'll have a link to it in this post once it's ready.

DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS THREAD WITH "IN", POST IN THE TOURNAMENT THREADS WHEN THEY GO UP TO JOIN THE TOUR!

This thread will eventually become the playoffs thread.

Good luck and have fun!
