[Milo]

Manager: Milo
Assistant Manager (if applicable): peap
Team Name: Wildin' Weaviles
List of Accomplishments: Top 8 Summer Seasonal (Milo), Natdex Tutor (both), VR Council (Peap) NDLT Winner (Peap), NDWC Winner (Peap), Top 8 ND Circuit (Peap).

Why would you make a Good Manager?:
I would make a good manager because of my experience in Tournament Hosting and participation in team tours. I am currently playing in 2v2 PL and NFE PL, having also played in (and won) OMFL.
Peap has played in both NDPL and of course won NDWC. Whilst he is taking a step back from mons as of late, his current games in ND Invitational show he is anything but washed and out of meta. He has been around the tier for a long time and understands the playerbase as much as I do. We feel with our collective knowledge, experience and accomplishments, we would be good managers

Manager: pinorska
Co-manager: Suloxiv
List of accomplishments
Pin: managed team canada for ru world cup, player in the french natdex pl (4-1) uu snake, dpppl, zupl, nfepl, pokemon perfect pl, a few other side pls.
In Natdex, I’m a National Dex ladder hero, I’ve topped ladder in natdex ou and monotype, helped a little bit with the Quags who are in ndmpl finals. I’ve done 4 suspects for natdex and played in natdex ru tour asw.
Sulo: Natdex room voice and UU driver, positive community member and knows community well.

why we’d be a great core: we both love natdex and know the community, are willing to put a lot of work in before the draft to get a good roster, will do lots of building and testing. Sulo and I both have no life and active but we’re also kind and mature enough to foster a fun yet competitive environment.

[Will]

Manager: WSun1
Assistant Manager (if applicable): Icemaster Skooma
Team Name: Skoomin' Skarpys
List of Accomplishments: I am an NDGS finalist, NDAG open winner, NDWC winner, and NDPL winner. Ice is the only person that Retsameci supplies teams to. SKOOMA qualified for OLT after spending 80 hours over 3 weeks.
Why would you make a Good Manager?: We've all managed in multiple tours. I am especially in touch with the lower tier communities while Icey Wicey is in touch with the NDOU/AG player base so we will be able to create a good draft. SKOOMA will not stop ranting about stall so the team cord will be very active.

Edit: Unfortunately, Skooma is unable to access Smogon at the current moment. However, he has expressed great passion for this managerial position and would like to apologize for typoing "Confirming". Tagging Theia to help fix this for us.

We are very welcoming and both are active in National Dex/Showdown community.
