Tournament [Gen 9] A Duomod Randbats tour ANYONE could win ($40 Prize Pool, won by Gekokeso!)
- Thread starter DuoM2
- Start date
Sure I'm in, what could go wrong?
aaaaaaand here's Round 1! God dang I just now realize I really should've linked the thread for last gen's version of this, this'll probably be pretty weird for people who weren't around for last gen LOL
Matchups are all below. With them is the Player Wheel roll everyone's gotten. If you want you can ignore all of them but yours, your opponent's, and Gravity Monkey'. Gravity Monkey has made Pajantom legal for just this round, but I lowered its attack by 10. Its stats look real overtuned for this mod and it might still be broken, but I don't think it'd be egregious enough to be too big a deal. This isn't a very serious tournament anyways.
