***JUST A DISCLAIMER!!!!!***
There is NO NEED for additional set ups to be provided by the general public. This will not reduce/eliminate venue fee
This is a CASH ONLY tournament!! We cannot take any debit card transactions for neither venue fee nor tournament entry


YouTube:
We do have a YouTube account so that people can watch and review their matches from previous tournaments. We try our best to provide ample quality on all of our videos, and we hope you enjoy what we've got on our channel! Click the button to navigate directly to the channel.




Schedule:
12:30 Doors Open/Registration Starts
2:00 Wii U Doubles Registration Ends
4:00 Wii U Singles Registration Ends


Location:
Located about 15 minutes away from UNCC and practically in the same parking lot of the Concord Mills Mall, this is the ideal location for all your new, retro, card, and board gaming needs. Concord Mills Blvd is directly off I-85 as well so it should be easy enough for you travelers to find. There is plenty of food in the area including Steak & Shake, Chic-Fil-A, and of course the food court in the mall. While no outside food or drink is allowed in the venue, they do offer drinks and simple snacks at a very reasonable cost. Also, be sure to keep your language and behavior family friendly. We will continue to hold Smash tournaments here, so show them the best our community has to offer. It's important to note this is a high traffic area so be sure to keep that in mind when you’re heading to and from the event. Be sure to like and follow their Facebook page by clicking the image.



General Rules:
  • As a guest, be sure you clean up after yourself and leave no messes behind
  • Any person(s) caught vandalizing store property i.e. tournament equipment, items for sale, etc. will be responsible for any and all charges to replace the items and may have charges pressed onto them based on the severity
  • Absolutely no drugs and alcohol on the premises. If we see any, we’re sending you home packing
  • If you’re called on to play a match and you’re not present, you have 10 minutes to show up or else you’re disqualified from your match. A timer will be enacted on all bracket matches; matches are also marked as active during all brackets on our Challonge page
  • Coaching in any way, shape or form during a player’s match is prohibited. That includes in between games and sets. Giving advice to a player after a match when they’re on standby is completely legal. There is a three-strike system enforced to any violators
  • A T.O. set up is located right around the corner from the doorway. Anyone with a “Tournament Organizer” label or “T.O.” label can touch the equipment. Anyone else DOES NOT touch the brackets or equipment
  • It is the job of both players to report their matches. Please stay alert and on top of things when reporting matches to ensure efficiency
  • Money matches are to be played ONLY during the break time. If a T.O. finds a set up being used for a money match during bracket time, both players will be disqualified
  • Any disrespectful actions and comments to players, staff, outsiders, etc. will result in an escort off the premise
  • If there are any disputes about the rules or even a match, feel free to consult a T.O. at any time during the tournament
  • A T.O. may allot more time in the event you bring it to their attention but it is at their discretion and are not required to do so

Smash for Wii U Ruleset:

* 2 stock, 6 minutes
* Sets are best of 3; Top 8 is best of 5
* Items set to “off” and “none”
* Either player may call for a Double Blind character selection for the first match
* Stage selection for starters will have each player strike. A game of rock paper scissors will be played to determine who strikes first in a 1-2-1 basis; winner after each game bans two stages; In a Bo5, only one ban is permitted
* Stage bans affect opponents only. All bracket matches will comply with Dave's Stupid Rule (i.e. Once Smashville is played in a set, it can no longer be selected by the winning player on that map for the rest of the set)
* Infinites are legal up to 300%, beyond which is considered stalling and will result in a forfeit of that stock
* Pausing during a match, unless OK’d by the other player, will result in the loss of one stock for the one who paused
* Quitting out of a match before it is over will result in a loss for the quitter
* If time runs out, the person with the most stock left (or least % if they are equal) wins. If the % is equal as well, play a 1 stock 3 minute match, same characters and stage
* Any move that is considered a "suicide move" (i.e. Ganondorf's Flame Choke, DeDeDe and Kirby's Inhale, Bowser's Flying Slam) will be contested as a win/loss based on the results screen; If the suicide results in a "Sudden Death", players will determine the game with a 1 stock, 3 minute game instead
* No coaching during a game or set. Consulting someone between matches is allowed as long as it doesn't hold up the next match. Any players found coaching in a match will first get a warning, followed by the player getting disqualified in their match, and finally the coach AND the player will be disqualified completely from the tournament
* Both players CANNOT agree to any rule or stage outside the tournament ruleset
* GameCube controllers are HIGHLY recommended!! Any player that uses the Wii U Pro Controller MUST keep up with the connection with any set up and immediately disconnect after their matches to ensure no accidental interference
* 3DS controllers also apply the same idea and concept as the Wii U Pro Controllers during play; Wii U Gamepads will NOT be allowed for playing sets
* If you do not have a controller of any kind when coming to the event, the venue has GameCube controllers for sale at the front desk for modest prices
* Custom movesets are not allowed in any sets during bracket matches
* Mii Fighters are allowed; however, only the default sizes and 1111, 2222 and 3333 sets can be used
