[collapse=Rules]General Rules
No items
4 Stocks, 8 Minutes
Wobbling is legal unless used to stall. Wobbling over 250% is typically considered stalling
Bring your own controller
No pausing. If you break this rule your opponent can make you forfeit your current stock, or in extenuating circumstances after discussion with TO, the whole game.
Team attack on for doubles.
In the case of timeouts, winner is decided by current stock, followed by current %
Certain stages legal only: See stagelist below
Giga Bowser is banned (PM)
If you are called 3 times (over the course of 20 mins) for a tournament game and you don't appear to play, you forfeit a game, and forfeit subsequent games every 8 minutes from that point. If you're worried about missing games ask me I'll let you know if you're likely to be called for a game soon.
All disputes should be settled with the tournament organisers (Tristan or Alex)
How to select stage/characters for tournament sets
First game:
1.) Both players blind pick character (say it the same time, or both tell a third party to avoid counterpicking)
2.) Stage striking occurs, player A strikes one stage, player B strikes 2, player A then picks from the remaining two stages. Play RPS to decide who strikes first.
Subsequent games:
1.) Winner bans 1 stage (Bo3 Only)
2.) Loser picks a stage (not the stage he won on most recently)
3.) Winner picks character
4.) Loser picks character
