Stage List
Starter Stages
Counterpick Stages
* Treated as Final Destination in banning phase. If Final Destination is banned, Omega Stages are banned and vice versa.
** If Battlefield is banned, Miiverse in turn is banned as well. Both stages treated as one and the same. Miiverse is unplayable for 3DS users which only gives the option of Battlefield.
Project M rule set:
4 stock.
8 Minute timer.
Items are set to "off" and "none".
If the timer runs out, the victor is determined first by stock and then by percentage. If there is a tie, see the tiebreaker section to follow.
Controller ports will be decided by players.
You may switch controller ports on your counterpick only.
Any controller malfunction mid match is on you. If you need to reset, your opponent will have to agree to a reset as doing so will require you to pause the match. (if pause is on).
Stalling is banned. You know what this is, ask if you're unsure.
If you freeze the game on an action initiated by your character, you lose the game. You are expected to know the boundaries of your character. (This rarely, if ever, happens.)
Pause is recommended to be turned on for quick resets, but players can request it be turned off for the duration of their match.
If a player pauses the match mid game (accidentally or intentionally), it is a stock loss to the player who pressed it (unless for valid interruption at T.O's discretion).
A match ending in simultaneous death does not go to the initiator. If the result is sudden death from this, use the normal tie breaking rules (to follow) to determine the winner. Otherwise use who the game declared the winner.
Coaching mid-match is banned. Don't do it.
You cannot re-select a stage you have won on as a counterpick.
Any and all infinites (basically, where someone can control the opponent without them being able to do anything about it) must end at 300%, otherwise it becomes stalling. All infinites are entirely legal otherwise.
In the event of a game running to time, the winner is determined first by stocks, then % if the stocks are tied.
