Wow fantastic games from both of you! The adaptations in game 3 were really impressive.

Congrats @Tryson21 on making top 3. You’re up against @wisewailmer now for a shot at grand finals! May the best slug win :snail:

Hi all, the thread for the Gen 6 tournaments will be up next week so stay tuned and enjoy the finals of Gen 5 VGC!

I also have another important announcement…Little Cup!

Some participants have expressed the desire to play more matches or lose interest when they are eliminated early from the tournament and need to wait months until the later rounds conclude.

The Little Cup brackets hope to solve this by giving everyone who failed to qualify for top 8 a chance to still compete in their own league while the main bracket wraps up.

The way this will work is anyone who doesn’t make top 8 will be entered in a single elimination bracket against their fellow competitors who are out of the main bracket. There will be Little Cup brackets for both singles and doubles (provided there are enough entrants to run one) as well as a badge for the first place victor.

A true competitor would throw their top 8 qualifier match just to play more games in Little Cup! :+1:

Has the time been determined yet?

It has not. I can post here when it is

Haha, it’s not actual little cup rules. Same formats as the main bracket, just gives players who got eliminated early the chance to play more.

If it were actual little cup rules we’d actually get people throwing because that would be the only way to play that format :sweat_smile:

Dang I had my slug team ready
