I probably will be attending, this is my first tourney so can someone explain to me all the stuff that goes on before/during the match?

I mean like, stage striking before/during and things of that nature. I would really appreciate it!

To clarify, I'm a little confused what would happen after one match is played. The winner of the match gets to ban another stage? As in from the counterpick stages? And after the next match, the winner again gets to ban another stage?

After the a match, you forget about all the stage striking.

Winner of last match bans 1 stage. It can be any stage, neutral, counterpick, anything.
Loser of last match chooses the next stage to play on from the entire list of neutrals and counterpicks excluding the 1 banned stage.
Winner chooses his character.
Loser chooses his character.

This process applies to match 2 and match 3 if there is one. For match 3 the roles of winner and loser will naturally be reversed.

Stage striking usually goes in the order of first player to gets to strike 1 stage, second player gets to strike 2 in a row, then the first player gets to strike another 1 between what's left.

Players usually decide who strikes first by either who get's the first controller slot or sometimes rock/paper/scissors.

Also hype for Wings Over. I'm going there, I don't care how or what's going on. I miss it too much.

Pine and Skler <3

Just want to reiterate what Kevin said. The schedule is going to be run on time. If you arrive after signups end, the tournament will already be in progress!

See you guys tomorrow!
