Rules:

DOUBLE ELIMINATION (you're not out after your first set loss)

Game Settings: 2 Stock, 6 Minute Time Limit, Items Off, Equipment Off, 2/3 Games, 3/5 for Winner's, Loser's and Grand Finals

Custom moves Alternate OFF/ON week by week

Starter Stages:
● Battlefield (or Miiverse as an alternative)
● Final Destination
● Smashville

Counterpick Stages:
● Dreamland
● Town & City
● Duck Hunt
● Lylat Cruise
● Any stage in Omega form

Stage Striking: The winner of a RPS match chooses which player will strike first one stage from the Starter Stage list. Then the other player strikes one more and the remaining stage is used for the first match. (1-1)

Stage Bans: During the stage ban phase, the player who won the previous game may ban 1 stage from either the Starter or Counterpick lists. A player cannot have more than one ban phase during a set.

The losing player then chooses from the remaining stages, and the winner chooses a character for the next game before the loser chooses their own

NOTE: Banning Final Destination also bans ALL Omega Stages, and banning any non-Omega Stage also bans its Omega form (i.e. banning Battlefield also bans Omega Battlefield)

Self-Destruct Moves: If a match ends with the successful use of a character’s selfdestruct move, the player that initiated the self destruct move wins the match regardless of what the results screen states. Selfdestruct moves include only Ganondorf’s SideB, King Dedede’s NeutralB, Wario’s NeutralB, and Kirby’s NeutralB.

Any chance we can do melee as well?
Unfortunately, no. I'd like to but our space is limited and getting so many CRTs and Melee setups will be difficult, plus our WiiU events are extremely successful

Are there any age limitations or things like that? (Sorry if it's a dumb question, I'm new.)

Hey, I can finally make it out to this one! This will be my first ever Sm4sh tournament so I'm really hyped. I just had a question as I know that customs alternate. Will there be customs in the tournament on 09/12?

Thanks.

Yes, customs will be on for the even Saturdays (2nd and 4th) of each month. Hope to see you there!
