Hello everyone, and welcome to the first ever ORAS OU Invitational! This time I will be your host. The purpose of all of this is to essentially gather some of the best ORAS OU players of the past and modern ORAS to duke it out and show all of us their amazing skill and why they are rennounced as the greatest. Of course this isnt happening just to take each player precious time, as a matter of appreciation and a natural incentive this event will have a prize pool of $574!


Now it is time for the main event! So Noisy and Vulpix03 have fought extremely well to earn their place into the last 2 spots for the main event and now we are ready roll. 32 legends of the game are ready to duke it out and show the greatness of the ORAS OU metagame in motion!! The list of players is simply outstanding all around, with each matchup looking like a damn good highlight! Lets get to it!

blunder vs Raptor - Raptor has been performing really well lately, but I think blunder is still the more complete ORAS player and has a larger variety of teams to choose from.
Finchinator vs Santu - really surprised with how well Finch has performed recently. Santu is also a very solid ORAS player. Both have the tendency to tilt quickly however. This series is pretty even to me, might come down to who is luckier or who remains more calm and collected.
MichaelderBeste2 vs Spl4sh - Although I think Michael is a great overall player, I'll have to go with one of my favorite ORAS players overall atm. I didn't expect Spl4sh to drop to the Lower Bracket for this round, but I also don't see him lose 2 series in a row, whereas Michael has been fighting for his life in the lower bracket for a while already.
erz vs Empo - I think Erz is too stubborn with his team choices and that limits him sometimes. I know for a fact that Empo can do more than spam HO in ORAS at this point. Going with him :v4:
