As a fellow old Shark (SPL 3 RUer, so we never really met eachother), you just made me log on Smogon from my shitty phone to say that this is by far one of the most inspiratonal things I've seen during my time on this site. Despite the bad season we had back then (oh the good old Eternal - Ojama ghosting deal), the time I spent with the Sharks is the main reason why I came back 3 seasons later to relive the SPL experience. And it is definitely being worth the time.Lost to Conflict in a special battle for me; the SPL4 & SPL5 sharks tribute battle and almost sure my last battle as a player in a SPL. it was fun friend, gg :)

About this season... All I wanted when I signed up in mid season was not being bought by Raiders ( 1 tie 3 losses ) but I knew I was gonna be, so after being bought by them I tried to do my best and I met some really good and nice people and really good players, now I can say that even not having done the 5/5 wins I am proud of having been with you guys. I really like every of you but I have to mention Steve Angello and e7e, you guys both were really active, motivated and willing to help every of us at any time so you deserve the most these highlights.
Also a special mention to my old team sharks, I was really sad for not being with you this season guys, this tournament hasn't been the same without you. You were like my pokemon family. It sucked that I couldn't sign up in December :/
The nicks were the 4 historical managers and the 2 veterans who were with me those 2 past seasons :] I wish we were together again in other SPLs! but who knows, its difficult.
I leave this knowing that my last battle this season and who knows in the future is a WIN for THE STARK SHARKS. I don't feel disappointed at all.
GL the remaining teams in play-offs!
Also, the time Conflict dedicates to the Sharks is worth nothing but respect. Remembering a random low tier player like me after so long really surprised me too. Hope you have a better run next year. SHARK ATTACK is the best victory catchphrase (tied with KACAW of course), so we better get some more of it.
btw, where is MoP :(
