Battle of the Week
Battle of the Week IntroductionHello PCL, welcome to the League's Battle of the Week event! Every week, we will showcase and advertise a single competitive battle, with the winner gaining 50 Experience for his or her clan. Each clan will be equally represented and will face the other once, resulting in 3 battles per clan over 6-week cycles. Within these cycles, no one person will battle twice. I will determine the weekly battle format myself for the sake of efficiency, but will be very receptive to requests. Clan heads will choose who will participate in their battle, and can nominate themselves if they so choose. We will keep everyone in the loop on scheduling so everyone who wants to watch will know when to do so. Enjoy! ReplaysWeek 1: Castform vs. wolf [ORAS OU] Week 2: Dragon vs. Nah [ORAS UU] Week 3: Noa vs. Nolafus [ORAS NU] Week 4: Golgari vs. punkysaur [ORAS Monotype] Week 5: Archy vs. R.F.

you guys need to post when you're doing this so anyone who wants to watch will know when they can. also, we're moving on to next week...tomorrow. so battle today or tomorrow at the latest.
|
I assumed we were going by Sunday to Saturday. My bad.
We're battling at 5 PM ET this evening. edit: 5 PM, not 4 PM. Getting time zones mixed up. |
Lost vs wolf. was a great game tho! I kinda made some misplays and I need a better answer to Ferro. All in all tho was fun.

Good game. I'm open to any critique on how I played. :)
|
this week will be majestic milotics vs black magic, open to any (competitive) format/tier! if no one says anything by tomorrow, i will just decide the format myself, thinking about an oras lower tier right now.
clan heads decide match-up but i recommend that anyone who wants to play, especially with a specific format in mind, volunteer themselves! that way, the botw is featuring is players who know the tier they're playing. to have it any other way would defeat the purpose of this :p but yeah do post away with any format preferences (inc. spectators if there is a tier you wanna see though preference will be given to what the battlers want). edit: just to be clear, will decide format tomorrow and will want player decisions the following day to allow time to schedule and play the match. in the future, will be deciding on format/players sooner (in advance of the week) to allow for more time to schedule. |
I will volunteer if that's okay~!
To any format. |
Shawn and I have agreed to do a UU battle for this week's BotW, so we'll do that sometime

Dragon comes out the winner~
You can watch the replay here: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/pokecommunity-uu-202626 A pretty fun game! |
Sorry, this was poorly managed. I've been trying to get a combination of of people to play a lower tier format that would work within the ruleset of this event, but it's been...pretty challenging. I haven't been able to locate a VGC challenger for Omicron. :(
I was thinking of the amazingly alliterative NU: Noa vs Nola (Nolafus) for this week (with a generous deadline because the delay is on me). You're both quoted below to ping you: Quote:

just make sure to post the day and time you agree on here so people know! also, as per shawn's suggestion, i've been thinking of doing a BotW picks/"betting" thread. (not sure what we'd bet--the idea is in process, but i'd like to hype these more!) |
We could actually do it today, since we're both on.

You two should schedule this in advance 48 hours if possible so we can get a recording of it organized for social media :^)

I used an RNG and was given LC. Good luck!

If yes, please schedule the match for a few days after confirming it here. This will give SMT some time in advance to record it. Also make sure to schedule it on a specific time and date. |
