Manager signups for MPL XI are now open! If you will be signing up, please be sure to read the rules below.​

The format for MPL XI is the following:
  • SV Monotype
  • SV Monotype
  • SV Monotype
  • SV Monotype
  • SS Monotype
  • SM Monotype
  • ORAS Monotype
  • BW Monotype
Notes for prospective managers:
  • Please try to pick team names with a general theme and make sure it is appropriate. This is up to the discretion of the forum mods and hosts and we generally encourage the reuse of names from past iterations (e.g. those from MPL X, Bell Tower Braves, Hearthome Honchkrows, Trick House Treeckos, etc.).
  • There will be 8 teams in this iteration of MPL.
  • Teams are eligible to have any combination of manager selfbuys or retains for a maximum of 2 between them. The pricing for managers is in a spoiler below.
  • The date of the auction is expected to be the weekend of May 3-4th!
  • Total starting credits will be 100k.
Manager price = (M-1) * 500 * # of wins last MPL + (P + 3000) + 750 * # of wins last MPL - 1000 * # of losses last MPL
M being the number of selfbuys performed by the team (1 or 2).
P being the price of said player in their last MPL capped at 17000.
If they never played MPL or if their price was lower than 10000, it defaults to 10000. The result is rounded up.

As we previously did not use a 100k budget, prices from MPL IX will be scaled accordingly prior to being used in the equation, being rounded down to the nearest multiple of 500.
Manager Name:
Assistant Manager (Assman):
Team Name:
Retains preference 1 (which team from MPL X you'd prefer to be able to retain from):
Retains preference 2:

Returning managers will be able to retain players from the team they managed in the previous iteration.
Example:
Example:

Manager Name: ken
Assistant Manager (Assman): Azick
Team Name: Cabo Poco Capsakids
Retains preference 1: Goldenrod Gengars
Retains preference 2: Tyrannical Tinkatons
  • Team A: Trick House Treeckos
  • Team B: Tyrannical Tinkatons
  • Team C: Tohjo Falls Thunders
  • Team D: Goldenrod Gengars
  • Team E: Zero Isle Zoroarks
  • Team F: Bell Tower Braves
  • Team G: Melemele Meloettas
  • Team H: Hearthome Honchkrows

As mentioned in the notes for prospective managers above, the draft date will be decided upon by the managers and hosts following the end of Player Signups. Expect the weekend of May 3rd/4th!

The manager selection process is mostly subjective. The Monotype moderation team will select the managers they feel are most strongly involved with the community and display the attitude requisite of a manager.

Manager signups end on Sunday, April 20th at 10 PM GMT -4!
They may also close earlier if we find we have 8 suitable managers/pairs prior to this time.

After some internal discussion within the forum mod team after some inquiries, we’re allowing teams to have 3 managers for this iteration to gauge if we think it’s appropriate to maintain moving forward.

For those pairs who’ve already signed up, if you’d like to add a third, please edit your signups ASAP.
