RBY Invitational does not happen without CALLOUS and CALLOUS Invitational. The tournament's rules, format, and donation-based prizepool were directly carried over from CALLOUS Invitational. Big thank you to him for creating the Invitational format for ADV that almost every other generation has replicated at this point!
The RBY Invitational promises to be an unforgettable experience, with battles that will inspire, surprise, and thrill us all. Stay tuned for the exhilarating battles that await, where history will be made, legacies forged, and champions crowned. Remember how hype Gefährlicher Random vs. chuva de perereca in RBY Invitational IV Finals was? Or marcoasd vs. Lusch in RBYWC I Finals? Now, magnify that sense of grandeur, that all-encompassing spectacle, and envision it unfolding with each passing round. The journey begins here—let the RBY Invitational begin!
