Location
The tournament will be held at Crossfit Ajax, at
110 riverfront rd. Suite A, Lawrence, Kansas 66044
Registration will begin at 2:00, and the tournament will begin at 3:00. (If the KU game starting at 11:00 goes to OT, this might be shifted back to 2:30 and 3:30). If there are somehow more than 64 people in attendance, only the first 64 will be entered.
Tournament Details
- 1$ entry fee, first prize wins 75%, second prize 25% (this may be changed depending on the reception on this and the smashboards post)
- 1v1
- Double Elimination
- There will be 4 bracket pools with no more than 16 players per pool (though I'm expecting pools to be around 8). 4 CRT TVs will be available with each pool playing on one TV throughout
- The top two in each pool will advance to the top 8, which will be seeded based on total net stock difference in pool play. Losses will be reset for the top 8, which will be double elimination also
Rules
Matches
- Each match will be a "3 character battle." If you are confused, it's like this video but with only 3 characters each instead of all 12. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbr2abFQw4s. An example against a CPU will be performed 15 minutes before the tournament starts.
- Each player must choose three different characters
- You get 4 stocks with each character (the first round might be 3 depending on the number of entrants)
- The picks for first character will be double blind.
- After you have chosen one character, you are locked in to that character until you lose your 4 stocks.
- After the first individual battle, the player that loses chooses the stage for the next battle. If they keep the same stage, the winner must keep their character. If they change stage, the winner then picks their next character, and finally the loser chooses their next character (Pen and paper will be provided to prevent confusion in how many stocks you have remaining).The winner will then suicide as necessary until they are down to the stocks they ended with the battle before and play will start when their invincibility is up (damage from the previous battle will not be replaced). This will be repeated until only one character has stocks remaining.
- In pool play, if one player loses two full characters before the other player loses their first one, the match will be ended prematurely.
- At the end of the match, report the winner and the number of stocks remaining (for tiebreaking purposes) to the Tournament Director. If the stocks are not reported at the time, it will be assumed the winner had one stock remaining.
Stages
- Each match will start on either Hyrule Castle or Dreamland for the first battle, if competitors can't agree either flip a coin or rock paper scissors
- Legal stages are Peach's Castle, Congo Jungle, Hyrule Castle, and Dreamland.
- If both players agree, any stage may be played
Controllers
- Controllers will be provided but it is recommended that you bring your own controller if you can. Any players accused of using modified controllers that give an advantage may be assessed a penalty up to disqualification
Items
- Item switch will be turned to off
Other Rules
- No pausing, pausing will result in a loss of stock if your opponent enforces it.
The rules are subject to change between now and the day of the tournament, if you have a suggestion post here or search for "Ichthus Smash 64 Tournament" on facebook and post there
