A compilation of tournaments

[samthedigital]

Here is a list of every single one of the tournaments here on TA (links). I have also provided information on who won.

Part 7 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=426

While it is not noted there Chris Watarimono won the tournament. It was a tournament where the Pokemon were chosen at random for the player, and as a general recap Mako loves to forfeit, and that's pretty much what happened throughout the tournament. >_>;;

The RBY League

Part 7 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=441

GGFan won this tournament. This was the first League here at TA, and because there aren't many battles in the average tournament it was pretty fun and it was succeeded by two more tournaments even if the last one was a disaster. In this first one DORK was able to get an impressive comeback after only doing decently throughout the tournament. In the finals he faced GGFan and lost four games to two, and lost his momentum where it mattered most sadly.

The Tournament of Stuff #5

Part 1 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=439

Part 2 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=442

Part 3 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=445

Part 4 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=446

GGFan won the tournament. Honestly I don't have much to say about the tournament other than that it is a pretty standard 16 man tournament.

The Tradeback Tournament

Part 1 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=451

Part 2 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=453

This tournament is a little messy because of bad participation. The winner of the tournament is GGFan. I still remember the finals a little. It came down to a stall war that I lost because I didn't waste the right moves that would have won me the game.

The Triple Type Tournament

Part 1 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=456

Part 2 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=458

Part 3 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=459

This was a tournament where you had to pick two Pokemon per type that you were assigned. GGFan ended up winning the tournament. It was an 8 man tournament, and I think some of the draws were unlucky for some people which was a small problem for this. There isn't much other than that to say though because there's not much in the way of a story behind this one.

The Region Tourney : Part 1

Part 1 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=462

Part 2 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=463

Part 3 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=465

In all honesty this was a horrible tournament. It was plagued with inactivity and the regions didn't really make sense. I'd say that this type of tournament would be better done randomly like GGFan's but each battle would be assigned a random set rather than everyone to negate the already huge amounts of luck.

Down With The Standards!

Part 1 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=466

Part 2 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=468

Part 3 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=470

There is more inactivity, and this is is really a huge problem honestly. This was a restricted underused tournament, and the finals were decent at least. This was another tournament where I met GGFan in the finals as opposed to in the beginning, and I won the first game and then lost the last two to give GGFan the tournament win.

The Alternaversary

Part 1 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=478

Part 2 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=479

Part 3 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=480

Ugh, another tournament where I was denied victory in the final battle. This was an 8 man tournament, and this time the participation wasn't so bad. M3k won this in the finals against me.

SEBG *I need a real title without initials*

Part 1 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=483

Part 2 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=484

Part 3 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=485

Here is another GGFan win. I will post more when I have more information, but I'd rather someone else do this since I don't remember this.

The Pokemon Elimination Tournament

Part 1 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=487

Part 2 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=488

Part 3 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=491

Part 4 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=493

The finals of this tournament were horrible. If I recall correctly I ended up having to change the finals due to inactivity in the finals. GGFan ended up beating Cygnus because Cygnus forfeited, but they had both lost previously. I decided to DQ the finalists because they were not active at all. I really liked this kind of tournament, but the problem was that some people ended up making great teams in the beginning rather than waiting to do that for finals which kind of imbalanced it a bit. It was a good concept though, and I would like to see this kind of tournament again. To recap though the finals were horrible and anticlimactic.

The Tier Level Tournament

Part 1 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=490

Part 2 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=492

Part 3 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=494

Haste won this tournament. The goal of this tournament was to use a single Pokemon from each tier, which meant that it was a pretty interesting concept. I am guilty again of not really remembering this tournament though.

The Newspapers In The Rain Tournament

Part 1 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=498

Part 2 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=499

Part 3 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=500

This was a type clause tournament where you could not have two Pokemon with the same type in your team. It was also interesting because ViL decided to join the tournament. I remember my first match against GGFan quitle clearly, and it was really good before the server RTEd. I was given the win however because I had a very probable win, and GGFan agreed with that. In the semis I really wanted to win because I knew that HCM would lose, but luck wasn't on my side and I lost. Yellow however made a good representation, but he lost because of the 'quality of the luck' against ViL in the finals. Overall I thought this tournament was quite cool.

The Tag Team Season

Part 1 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=503

Part 2 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=504

Part 5 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=509

Part 6: lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=511

Part 7 : lionheartggfan.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=tournamentsareheldhere&action=display&thread=513

This was a tag team season, so that meant that there were a lot of battles overall, and even though one guy dropped out it was quite active overall. Cygnus and Billtog really deserve mention because they pulled an incredible comeback that put them into the finals over Yellow and rekt who had a solid second place at that point. GGFan and I dominated the tournament though, and their winning streak stopped in the finals and GGFan and I got the win.

The International RBY Tournament

This was by far my favorite tournament. It pitted us at the Alternative against some European players after a pool to decide who would advance to represent their side. In pools there was some inactivity, but I ended up going 7-0-7 playing against everyone, and I was undefeated. GGFan, Yellow, HcM and I represented TA while Jakira, peter pan, cune, and Buster represented the European server.

In round 2 it came out to a complete draw because the Europeans were able to knock out two players, and so were we. HcM and I however were able to knock out the two players with the best scores in the European pools, so that helped a lot in the battles to come. HcM came in to represent TA with a horrible score, but he was able to pull through. I still dominated and my win count was now 8-0-8. A definite big win though was by Buster since in defeating GGFan he was able to defeat one of our best battlers.

In the final round I extended my score to 9-0-9 by beating Buster. He complained about our match (though I hear he understood why he lost later), but honestly I had that game won, and even luck wouldn't have won him the game. HcM was able to beat cune, and that solidified our win. I would have truthfully liked HcM to lose so it would be more epic, but alas that did not happen. The obvious highlight of this tournament would be that TA won and that I did not lose a single match in 9 games, and considering the luck involved in RBY that's pretty cool.

This is still a work in progress. It won't be as messy when I am done, but I don't have the time to do much more than this right now. I will do more later. This is just for easy access to tournaments.

-2007 RBY League was good. 2008 was the one that sucked.

-TOS5 was a 16 man tournament.

Good idea though. Keep it up.
