Welcome to the seventh annual Random Battles Team Tournament! In RBTT, eight teams battle it out to prove their skills in randomized formats.

Tournament Formats
Each team will play 14 matchups per week, with all formats played as best of 3 except as noted. The formats are:

Gen 9 Random Battle (bo5)
Gen 9 Random Battle
Gen 8 Random Battle
Gen 7 Random Battle
Gen 6 Random Battle
Gen 5 Random Battle
Gen 4 Random Battle
Gen 3 Random Battle
Gen 1 Random Battle
Gen 8 Battle Factory
Gen 8 BSS Factory
Gen 9 Random Doubles
Gen 9 Hackmons Cup
Mystery Box (Note: do not list "Mystery Box" in your signups.)

What is Mystery Box?
Mystery Box is a weekly slot that enables RBTT to remain as format-inclusive as possible while also giving drafted subs a more pivotal role. Each week, the format in the Mystery Box slot will change to a random selection from the pool below. In the round-robin phase of the tournament, a format will be randomly chosen from the Mystery Box each week, with no repeats; thereafter, Mystery Box converts to a multi-format bo3 slot wherein Game 1 will always be Gen 9 Random Battle, and the following game(s) are loser-choose from any extant Mystery Box format. Tiebreakers will also follow this structure.

The Mystery Box formats are:
Code:
Gen 2 Random Battle
Gen 6 Bring 12 Pick 6 Random Battle
Gen 7 Battle Factory
Gen 7 BSSF
Gen 8 HC
Gen 8 Random Doubles
Gen 9 Monotype Random Battle
Teams and Managers
Each team will have fourteen starter slots and 3 substitute slots, and will be drafted via snake draft format on January 6th. Each team, in a randomized order, will select 1 player each round, with draft order reversal at the end of each round (i.e. teams will draft in the following order: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, repeat). The draft order is: Darkrai, Ogerpon-H, Giratina-O, Rayquaza, Hoopa, Chi-Yu, Suicune, Zekrom.

The participating teams and their managers are:
Team Darkrai, managed by nemoauditur and Petros
Team Ogerpon-H, managed by Clementine and Dark Pulse
Team Giratina-O, managed by Javi and Rage
Team Rayquaza, managed by LoSconosciuto and za
Team Hoopa, managed by Irpachuza and not a racist
