  2. [B][SIZE=7]The Cryonicles (2-7)[/SIZE][/B][/CENTER]
  3. The Cryonicles had some great players this season, such as star players @teal6 going 8-1 and Lutra going 6-1. Sadly, the Cryonicles also had some disappointments, as new star player kamikaze and SPL veteran Lohgock struggled to get wins this season. Sadly, managers Vinc2612 and Valentine couldn't help the Cryonicles to a playoffs spot, as they lost in the tiebreaker to the Alpha Ruiners. Outside of kamikaze and Lohgock, HJAD also played a single Doubles game, which he lost vs BLOOD TOTEM.

  6. [SIZE=3]A highly anticipated player was kamikaze, a player that climbed the Doubles hierarchy very quickly, by becoming a Tier Leader in less than a year. [/SIZE]

  22. [B][SIZE=7]The Ever Grande BIGs (3-6)[/SIZE][/B][/CENTER]
  23. The Ever Grande BIGs were struggling this season, ending in the 9th place with only 2 wins. Star player Laga was expected to do well in his third SPL, however he sadly went without a win and due to inactivity he was eventually sold and replaced by BLINGAS, who brought some "innovation" to the SPL, such as Slaking and hyping Hoopa-Unbound a lot, and ended the season with a 3-2 record. bugzinator also played one game of Doubles for the BIGs, which he lost versus Arcticblast. It has been an interesting season for fresh manager Mizuhime, paired with the more experienced manager Funkasaurus.

  35. [B][SIZE=7]The Alpha Ruiners (3-7)[/SIZE][/B][/CENTER]
  36. It was a huge surprise for everyone when checkmater75 got drafted. A fairly unknown player, which had not put down any spectacular performances. Many people did not expect him to do well, but he went 2-3, which was still a fairly good performance for someone who was expected to go without wins. Despite his interesting teams (such as triple Tailwind), the Alpha Ruiners led by Ciele and BAIKA bought deoxys speed, which struggled in a few haxy games, such as losing to Swagger Klefki by Lohgock. Despite both Doubles players having a negative record, the Ruiners had some revelations such as their OU duo ABR and TheEnder, going 10-1 and 8-2, respectively. Tiba also went 8-2, and SoulWind, idiotfrommars, dekzeh, mad0ka, and Hogg all had a positive record. Despite the Ruiners beating the Cryonicles in the Tiebreakers, they lost versus the Congregation of the Classiest in the Semifinals, ending their season with a 4-4-1 record.

  45. [B][SIZE=7]The WiFi Wolfpack[/SIZE][/B][/CENTER]
  46. Rookie managers Nails and Pearl managed the WiFi Wolfpack, and they did really well. Having star players such as Grand Slam winner Bouffalant (7-2), strong ORAS OU player PDC (7-3), and the extremely versatile aim (who played [B]five [/B]different tiers), going 7-3. Sadly, the Wolfpack couldn't get past the Stark Sharks, and that's how the WiFi Wolfpack ended their season.

  55. The Indie Scooters[/SIZE][/B][/CENTER]
  56. The Indie Scooters, led by BKC and bro fist came just shy of a playoff spot, ending in the 6th place. Despite a talentful roster, with players such as Windsong, Realistic Waters, and xMarth, the Indie Scooters couldn't get past some opponents, such as the powerful Sharks, Classiest, and Wolfpack.

  62. The Alpha Raiders will look forward to next year, considering this year didn't go as well they had hoped to. Despite strong players such as TDK, CrashinBoomBang, kokoloko, and Grand Slam finalist Kingler12345, and talented managers Sam and FLCL, the Alpha Raiders sadly finished on the 8th spot.

  67. [B][SIZE=5]The Circus Maximus Tigers (6-3)[/SIZE][/B][/CENTER]
  68. The Circus Maximus Tigers, led by tennisace and Sweep, finished in the 7th place which was sadly not enough to obtain a spot in the playoffs. Despite missing out on the playoffs, they still had players that did well, such as Earthworm (7-2), JabbaTheGriffin (6-2), and Doubles surprise of the season MajorBowman (4-0).

  71. [B]1. How are you reflecting on this season, personally? Do you feel like you have performed well as a rookie?[/B]
  72. I think I did alright for my first SPL season. 2-3 in doubles is pretty average and I'm regretting a few of my team/move choices looking back on it but I did fine for my first time.
  73.  
  74. [B]2. How was it to work together with Tigers, and especially teammate MajorBowman?[/B]
  75. Bowman's a great guy and it was fun working + testing with him, especially considering he kinda carried our team in doubles ._. Tigers were a cool team, both managers were nice as well as the players and we didn't have any drama ^_^
  76.  
  77. [B]3. You have played a game in NU and RU, how did you feel about those games?[/B]
  78. Lost both, didn't play my best in either I don't think but I got haxed out pretty bad so I can just blame it on that :<
  79.  
  80. [B]4. Have you discovered some interesting or innovative sets during the SPL you'd like to share?[/B]
  81. I would share mence but now everyone loves it sooooo
  82. http://pastebin.com/vBEVubhN
  83. Fast Rhyperior with Tailwind support is really dangerous on the right team, I think Lohgock/Stratos used it last SPL but I haven't seen it much. Definitely an underappreciated set.
  84.  
  85. [B]5. Are you excited for the Doubles Premier League as a manager?[/B]
  86. Yea for sure. This should be a fun tournament and I'm excited to crush the other teams + see some new talent.

  94. The Firebot Falcons[/SIZE][/B][/CENTER]
  95. [SIZE=3]The Firebot Falcons had an extremely disappointing season. Despite getting #1 in the SPL Power Rankings, they actually ended up in the #10 spot. Last year's star player Tesung disappointed with a 2-7 record, and many other players did too. Even though the Falcons didn't do well, some players such as Triangles, Tamahome, and KyleCole actually ended up with a positive record (6-3).[/SIZE]
