Let's be real: while it's better during a suspect test, the Doubles OU ladder is largely gimmick city, mostly populated by players who have no intention of playing at the highest levels. As a result, it can be difficult for potential voters to get enough experience with a Mega Salamence metagame to form an educated opinion. Because of this, I've decided to create a couple more opportunities to face off against skilled Doubles OU players.
Room tournaments in the Doubles OU room be held every day, with at least one every three hours (if possible). On odd-numbered days (May 31st, June 5th, etc.) tournaments will be held in the Suspect metagame, where Mega Salamence is legal. On even-numbered days, tournaments will be held in the standard metagame, with no Mega Salamence. These tournaments will start May 26th.
Live Voting Reqs Tours! We're going to take a page out of OU's book and run at least one of these tournaments. These will be simple, elimination-style tournaments in the Suspect metagame. Placing high in one of these tournaments will automatically fill your battling requirement to vote! (You still have to post.) Our first (and so far only) tournament will take place on Saturday, June 6th at a time to be determined (estimate: afternoon GMT -5).
Participation in these tournaments is entirely optional. Neither the room tours nor the suspect tour are required to vote. However, participation in these tours will give you more experience playing with and against Mega Salamence, allowing you to make a more educated vote. Also, they're fun. Why not join?
