Welcome to the VGC Academy 2018 tournament!
This tournament will be following our standard tournament structure, with one big twist: We're playing in the 2018 format. For those unaware, in 2018:
- The current game was USUM
- Restricted legendaries were banned
- Z-Moves and Megas were allowed
- Games were played with closed team sheets
(Note: You're still required to submit a team sheet for moderation/archival purposes, your opponent won't see it!)
Make sure to join the discord server, as all judge calls will be handled through there. It's also a great place to practice! We hope to see you there!
