-----------------------------------------------------------
If you have a Wii U we can always use more for the tournament. We currently have 2 Wii U's plus Smash 4 at the Venue, one of which is the Stream setup. If you bring a system, you are responsible for making sure that you bring (and take home) all applicable cables.

SETUPS NEED TO HAVE ALL DLC CHARACTERS AND DREAM LAND! At this point you should try to have a Nintendo brand Gamecube adapter for your setup - they're widely available for reasonable prices, and the third-party adapters can have issues.

All controller types are welcome. If you have a wireless controller, please make sure it is not synced once you are done playing. If you have a Wii Remote, please take a battery out when you are not at a setup! Consistent gameplay interruptions may cause DQ.

All tournament entrants are expected to watch the bracket and be aware of any upcoming matches that they may need to play. When a match is called, both players should report to the assigned station within 10 minutes - if the game has not started after that point, players are subject to forfeiting games and/or the set at the TO's discretion.

All attendees should clean up after themselves, and properly discard of all trash they create or bring into the venue. Additionally, all attendees are expected to respect their fellow competitors and the venue.

Tardiness

STAGE SELECTION:

1. Players select their characters. Either player may choose to Blind Pick. In this case, each player secretly tells a third player their character before picking with the third player verifying their selections.
2. Players play Rock-Paper-Scissors. Winner chooses between selecting controller port or first Stage Strike
3. Players take turns removing stages from the Neutral Stages list above based upon the results of the previous rule. The first player to strike removes one (1) stage from the list, the second player removes two (2), and the first player then chooses from the remaining two (2) stages.
4. The players play the first match of the set
5. Winning player of the preceding match bans a stage from the full list of stages, both Neutral and Counter-Pick.
6. The Losing player of the preceding match picks a stage for the next match. Cannot choose the stage banned in the previous step, nor a stage they've already won on during this set, unless agreed.
7. The winning player of the preceding match may choose to change characters.
8. The losing player of the preceding match may choose to change characters.
9. The next match is played

Stage List

Starter Stages
Battlefield*
Final Destination**
Smashville
Town and City
Lylat Cruise

Counterpick Stages

Dream Land 64*
Omega Stages**

Stage Clause (you can't pick the LAST stage you won on)

* Treated as Battlefield in striking phase. If Battlefield is banned, Dream Land 64 is also banned and vice-versa.
** Treated as Final Destination in striking phase. If Final Destination is banned, Omega Stages are banned and vice versa. All Omega Stages are legal as counterpick until further notice, as we voted on that as a community.

Team Colors: Players’ character colors must match their team's color when possible, to avoid confusion (ex: Luigi on the green team must use the green costume).

Gentleman’s Clause: In the case where both players agree to play on a banned stage , then it is legal to play on for that set.

If there are any more questions for rules, with the exception of allowed omega stages we're following the suggested rule set.
