Stagebanning:
Players have the possibility to ban a stage before the stage stage striking procedure. This stage will be banned for the whole set and must not be used. This may also happen with the help of an impartial third person. If both players happen to ban the same stage only one stage will be banned from the set.
First Stage:
The first stage of a set will be determined via the stage striking procedure:
Der first player (determined either via agreement or by flipping a coin/rock-paper-scissors) calls a stage from the pool of starter stages. This stage will not be used for the first game.
Then the second player calls a stage, which he doesn't want the game to be played on.
This procedure will be repeated until there's only one stage left - this will be the stage for the first game of the set.
Double Blind Character Pick:
This may be used for the character selection after banning and striking stages. An impartial person will be used to help - both players tell him, which character they use (in order to prevent pre-match counterpicking) without the other palaying knowing it. After both players told the impartial person their character he will call them out for both players to hear.
Stage Agree:
Both players are allowed to play on any stage they like if they both agree to play on that stage. In this case it doesn't matter if the stage is banned ot not. Banned stages may only be used if both players agree. This can also be used to determine the starter stage.
Advanced Slob Picks:
After the first game of a set, the loser is allowed to choose one of the allowed stages for the next game and announces it clearly. The winner of the first match is then allowed to choose another characters. Afterwards the loser can change his character as well (the winner is not allowed to change his character again afterwards).
The set will continue on the announced stage.
Daves Stupid Rule:
It is not allowed to choose the stage, where you won your last game, unless the opponent agrees.
Life Stealing:
In Team Tournaments Life Stealing is allowed.
Set:
Reguar sets will be played best of 3.
Winners semi-finals, winners finals and losers finals will be best of 5.
Grand finals will be best of 7.
Controller port and team colour:
In case of a disagreement the colour of the teams will be determined by flipping a coin/rock-paper-scissors.
In teams the controller ports are always distributed in a 1221-way (A team will either have port 1 + 4 or 2 + 3).
If a player happens to be colour blind he is allowed to choose the colour for both teams to avoid confusion.
Pools:
(not confirmed - depending on the number of entrants)
Double Elimination:
A player has to lose two times before being knocked out of the tournament. The bracket is divided into a winners- and a losers bracket. If you lose a set in winners bracket you will be knocked into losers bracket. If ouy lose a set in losers bracket you are out of the tournament.
Seeding:
Most tournaments seed their players depending on their skill level - with the help of experienced players the TO will try to have a balanced bracket. If you disagree with your seeding you may contact the TO although it won't help in most cases.
Tie (Gleichstand):
If the time runs out the winner will be determined by stocks first, then by percent. Should there be another tie, there will be another game with 1 stock and minutes.
No sudden death.
DQ Rule:
If a set is announced both players have to play their set asap. If you are 5 minutes too late you will lose the first match. After 8 minutes you will lose the whole set.
Stalling:
Any action that makes contact with your opponent - and thus playing - impossible is banned. All CGs have to ended after 300% or else they're considered stalling.
Infinite Cape Glitch Rule:
Meta knights Infinite Cape Glitch is banned.
Suicide Rule:
If a game ends with a suicide move like Ganondorf/Bowser side-B there will be no sudden death. Instead, the game will be ended with the Bowser/Ganondorf player as the winner.
Responsibilities of the players:
You are responsible for your controller, your tag and any mistake that might happen. Make sure that your controller works before your games start.
You are responsible for any action that might cause to freeze/crash the game (intentional or not). If such a bug occurs the game will be counted as a loss for the player, who is responsible for the freeze/crash.
It is assumed that you know the rules - if you fail to call the TO when your opponent breaks the rule it's your own fault.
