SEEDING
PROJECT M SINGLES: Players will be subjectively seeded based on perceived skill level in comparison to the rest of the players present. Attempts will be made to prevent players from similar groups from facing each other early. Players are welcome to view and discuss seeding with the Tournament Organizer before the start of a tournament, but the Tournament Organizer will have the final call.
PROJECT M DOUBLES: Because there is no precedent on the strength of a team, doubles will be not be seeded by Great Value Smash. If players can, as a group, agree on seeding, then Great Value Smash will use that.
SMASH 64 SINGLES: ...Real talk, we’re just going to beg Fireblaster to seed this one.
