Rules:
All Events​

* All games will be best 2/3, until top 8, which will be 3/5 time permitted
* Set Procedure: Each player will choose their character, double blind pick is available by request. Players will then strike from the starter stage list given, and play on the agreed upon stage. For each subsequent game, the winner will announce their stage ban(s), the loser of the previous game will choose the stage, the winner will chose their character, then the loser will chose their character.
*Handwarmers in melee: 1 minute coin battle warmup before a set
*Other games: one minute timer match
*Coaching: Midset coaching is allowed, not midgame
*You cannot go back to a stage previously won on unless the player agrees, or below clause
*Geo’s Stupid Rule, which states that you cannot select a stage you have already won on unless agreed, but you can select the game 1 stage for game 5 in a best of 5.
*Items are set to OFF and NONE
*Pause is set to OFF
* If time runs out, the person with the highest number of stocks left wins. If stocks are tied lowest percent wins. If percents are tied, a 1 stock 3 minute match is played on same stage.
* In the event that the game crashes or the TV or console loses power in the middle of a match, that match will be restarted with discretion from the TO's.
* Stalling is banned, wobbling past 170% is stalling.
*No non standard characters can be selected, i.e. Melee master hand, 20xx giga bowser, PM wario man or custom mods. This will result in full DQ
*Wii U teams must be color cohesive with team color and outfit, unless agreed otherwise by players. Disputes for team color handled by RPS or sense (i.e. Characters with little options Sonic, Miis, Cloud)
* Players are not allowed to modify the length, nor change the other rules of the set without consulting the TO, even if both players agree. Any players found to be doing this will BOTH be disqualified, and face forfeiture of prize money.
* Any players colluding or manipulating the bracket will also be disqualified and face forfeiture of prize money.
* TOs have full discretion to override or change rules as they see fit, when circumstances warrant it.​
