Counterpick Stages
First match of all sets is selected by a 3-stage striking system with the Starter Stage List. The player closest to the first port strikes first. Players take turns striking stages from the Starter Stage List until only one remains;After a match, winner bans 1 stage and loser selects from the counterpick stages in addition to Peaches Castle.
Black DK (Right-C), Dark Samus (Down-C) and Dark Falcon (Right-C) are discouraged if Congo Jungle is the stage for visibility reasons. The opposing player may reset the match without penalty if they wish for a colour change. Taking or dealing any damage nullifies this right.
