help with an online tourney i'm co-organizing

[spacemanspiff]

so there's an online tourney i'm helping to organize and this is my description on the ruling of chain grabs/ infinites. thoughts anyone?

Chain throws for the most part add to the meta game of the match. For example, what would Dededee or Falco be without his chain throws? But when a Chain Throw is inescapable to an unlimited % it becomes a game break as there is no skill required really and it should = an automatic stock loss. For this reason Chain Throws will be allowed IF one or more of the following applies to them:

-Only can be done within a certain % bracket
-Can be escaped with DI/air Dodge/Tech roll... etc.

Note that these rules apply regardless of circumstances. Meaning that if you use a character that has a chain grab that becomes an infinite against certain characters, you MAY use that chain grab against any character EXCEPT the ones it becomes an infinite against.

Why not just force an end to the infinite after 300%?

then i might as well just not ban them... as the idea of an infinite is that it gives you an auto KO... and at 300 you'll die from the next throw. i want to make it so chain grabs can be used, but not as auto stock losses. i want them used as extra strats, not game breaks
