[Sputnik]

Manager: Sputnik
Co-Manager: about15gals
Team Name: Refined Regigigases
Accomplishments: I have previously managed the Stalwart Skarmories in two previous NDPLs and have played in NDPL and other PLs across the site as well. I was also a previous council, vr council, and room staff member. About15gals is also a room staff member and has made finals in the previous NDFL and semifinals in NDWC III.
Why would we make good managers?: We have previous team tour experience both as players and managers so we both know our way around this kind of tournament. Also the vibes will be chill and we will get our lineups in on time so TOs won't have to chase us in DMs.

[Ineros]

Manager: Ineros
Assistant Manager: ARTYMASION
Team Name: Kingly Kyurems
List of Accomplishments:
For Artymasion, he is a good player with a successful tour reputation; to prove this, He had good ND Invitational and ND Winter seasonal runs, getting to round 6 in the former and to round 10 in the latter. Not only that, he played for and supported team France in NDWC and was a sub for the last NDFL’s Brutal Buzzards.

I don’t really have much accomplishments to prove who I am as I am relatively new to the tour scene, but I played in ND invitational, was supporting U.S South in NDWC, and am going to be a support asset for the Unrelenting Unmons in NDPL.

Why would you make a Good Manager?: For Artymasion, the above accomplishments show he has the capability to support a team’s sv and ss slots, which he also has good knowledge of, to victory. His creative teambuilding and knowledge of the metagames he excels in allows him to accomplish this. For me, although mainly as a sub, I have been in team tours (like PSPL, NDWC, and NDOTSL) where I have witnessed how managing works and what effort goes into supporting players. This is similar in Arty’s case as well. We both also know what players the ND playerbase across all the given tiers have to offer, allowing us to gain the most value out of people who will support / play the tiers they have knowledge in. Together, with these things and our motivation to manage, I believe we can create a healthy team tour environment and bring the needed support to our slots.
