Welcome to the third annual Random Battles Classic Open! This tournament is your chance to showcase your skills in the first 5 generations of Randbats, from RBY through BW2, in a best-of-5 series. The first player to 3 wins advances to the next round!

This tournament is part of our ongoing Rands Slam circuit. Stay tuned after this tour for news about the next one!

The winner of the Random Battles Classic Open will receive the Room Prize Winner rank in the Random Battles room for a month, be inducted into the Randbats Hall of Fame, and be awarded points for the Rands Slam. The winner of the Playoff Round will get a Smogon banner for a full year, along with a month-long Room Prize Winner rank and joinphrase.

How does this tour work?

Each generation will be played one time, with no repeats
(so series that go to a 5th game will see players play all 5 of the oldest Randbats formats). The order of generations does NOT need to be chronological. Instead:
1. Contact your opponent (if you are unsure as to how to schedule with an opponent, follow this guide which will explain how to schedule in detail) and determine which generation will be played first. If both players cannot agree on a format, use the command “!roll 5” on PS to randomly pick a starting generation.
2. Battle each other in the chosen generation.
3. Loser picks the next generation to play. Battles continue, generation by generation, until one player has 3 wins.

For example:
MaswoodShaheb and I are paired in Round 1, and after/during scheduling our match, we mutually decided to start off with Gen 4. However, in an alternate reality where MaswoodShaheb and I have only ever played gen8 randbats and don't really care which gen we start off with, we decided to do !roll 5 to decide our starting generation and gen3 was chosen for us to start with. (It doesn't matter who does !roll as long as both parties agree to letting the starting gen be random)

Please note:

1. All scheduling attempts MUST be done publicly on Smogon Walls. No other proof of communication will count for act calls regarding scheduling attempts.
2. You MUST post replays of your wins.

We strongly recommend familiarizing yourself with the Smogon Tournament Rules and General Guidelines, if you haven’t already. If you have further questions, don’t hesitate to contact the tour hosts, Maswoodshaheb, Clementine or myself here on Smogon.

Alright so last round predictions went 6-5 (so far), at least I'm not negative :eeveehide:

VanitasEcho  vs  (SpectralThief or AtraX Madara) | Keeping my last round prediction for the r5 match; Vanitas played pretty convincingly against sharp so I see no reason not to bold them here
Haider787  vs  Dj Breloominati♬| ok Haider got another big name out, their run is pretty impressive so far, but Spitfire is a tough player to beat and honestly I don't see him losing this one
Quoise  vs  MultiAmmiratore | Rands auth battle! Quoise got Teres out which is definitely impressive, but I still think Chiori is the better player here
PikaPlayer  vs  soTsoT | go skymins!
pokeblade101  vs  El químico del pueblucho | the highlight of the round imo. Blade is too often just seen a that gen8 rands top player, but it's underestimating how good he can play in old gens too, especially from gen3 to 5. Damm is mostly known for his expertise in the old gens as well and could definitely beat blade, but for once I will predict against my old team mate.
Luchik  vs  Xceloh | Snom battle :c Two very competent players ; though I think Xceloh's skillset is more diverse than Luchik's, and the expertise the latter has in gen1 might not necessarily prevail this time. I'm picking Xceloh, but it could go either way without too much of a surprise.
