Tennis League 5

Tennis League 5, also known as TL5 or satan incarnate was a tennis tournament held from 2019 to 2020, the first ever on YTPMania.

It was won by Razerek.

History

Tennis was in a very troubled time after the shutdown of YouChew. Many of the staff were completely gone, and it was up to the younger crowd to pick up the pieces. With no staff, who would run tournaments?

Due to the general immaturity of many of the staff in hosting tournaments, TL5 was a growing pain in rebuilding that side of the community. It was largely agreed upon that the League format no longer worked for the modern meta and likely would never happen again, unless the scale was brought down significantly or other major changes were made to ease the load.

Layout

TL5 was laid out very similar to TL4, with a twist. In a blend of the match variation system of Tennis Season, there were five different match types one could get. These were:

• A regular match
• Multiplied Time Tennis (starting at 16 seconds)
• NoPlug Tennis
• Single Source Tennis
• Wildcard Tennis

While interesting on paper, many of these special tennis types resulted in unfair advantages for players depending on if they made even or odd rounds (in particular, MTT and Wildcard).

Set 4

Set 5

Due to mistakes in matchmaking, set 5 had to be split up to avoid duplicate matches occurring. That alongside increasing dropouts made planning the final set a nightmare. But it was done.

Final Match

Razerek won this match, making them the winner overall.
