Why is this tournament called "Coin Flip"? Like, you're undervaluing the own merits and reasons for existence of this tournament by naming Ubers tournaments "Just a Prank Tier" or "Coin Flip", am I really understanding something wrong here but I feel like it's getting implied that Ubers tournaments are basically equivalent to "coin flips" and have no competitiveness to them. I find this completely ridiculous. Ubers tournaments have a lot of competitiveness behind them and you need actual skill and your own teambuild to them. Pokemon like Swampert, Cradily, Porygon2, Cloyster (which I'm not surprised if becomes NU) are for example even more viable Pokemon in Ubers than in OU. The biggest reason Ubers are Ubers because they make the metagame much more narrow and centralized around them - that's why they are Ubers. In addition they would make 95% of the defensive Pokemon worthless. Pokemon's Video Game Championship format 2015 and 2016 were much less diverse than our Ubers tier, 2015 all top players literally ran 5 the same Pokemon and 2016 every good team considered basically 6 out of 10 Pokemon. And the winners of these tournaments were declared the world championships of competitive Pokemon.

 

I know I might be a lamer who just takes too seriously these names which are meant to be fun but there's no reason to release an Ubers tournament for community and act like it's completely pointless.

Because half the players have a prize.

 

There is no Uber offense in this name. If I really was the Uber Hater you describe why would I host it ?

Because of the theme in titles I'm seeing in Ubers officials which labels it as a non significant tournament. I'm asking that if you consider it the tournament as "non significant" enough to give it such a dismissive name, why to even host them? Again, this wouldn't be a problem if the # of tournaments wasn't limited but when you have a limited number of tournaments you can host I hope it's treated as a real official tournament. Like, no one wants to win a tournament called "Just a prank tier" or "Lucky elf coin flip" tournament. It undermines the amount of skill you need to reach that title.
