SS CAP is coming to an end, and there is no better way to celebrate the community that got me on Smogon in the first place than a massive, crazy money tournament! CAP was what first drew me to participate on Smogon, and while I am now active across the site, CAP will always hold a special place for me as the catalyst for my introduction to the community. The prize structure will be as follows:
1st Place: 40% ($400)
2nd Place: 20% ($200)
3rd-4th Place: 10% each ($100)
5th-8th Place: 5% each ($50)
Huge shoutout to the following users who helped me contribute to this absolutely massive prize pool:

Welcome to the money, lads. Each of the 8 remaining players have earned a piece of the pot, and congratulations are in order for making it this far! Hopefully this tour has sparked a bit of interest in y'all in the tier, and I'm glad we've made it! As for predicts...

Gray  vs  Sylveon used calm mind: Gray is the last sample user left, but they've defeated some very noteworthy opponents. The same can be said of Sylveon. Should be close and fun!
shiloh  vs  Joeshh: Joeshh is easily the Cinderella story of this tour, but shiloh has real support and is poised to make a deeper run.
Failbor  vs  Ewin: Surely Failbor stops winning with ancient samples sometime, right? Either way, Ewin gets a chance to flex his piloting skills here.
talah  vs  Azamat140499: My upset pick. While I will thank talah endlessly for defeating the fisher, Azamat similarly defeated the no-ground stall user. May the best jank win.
