This group is the main group for melbourne, you should be able to get everything from there. Both tournaments and meets.

The real reason I only have 3 mains in brawl is cus I have been playing that for years now.

 

[Leeyam]

Does anyone have any idea of what the format for the tournament will be like?

What happened last year? I'd assume it wouldn't be the same since this looks like there's going to be way more entrants.

Pools, then a double elimination bracket.

 

[Jamwa]

pretty sure its just gna be a round robin so that the results are accurate end everyone gets to verse each other

 

[Darkwing SykeDuk]

Round robin into marco polo into triple axle into top 128 cpu tournament into TAS into brawl top 8.

Just kidding, there's no brawl.

Are there any good ice climber players in Aus attending? I've recently switched from Falco and keen to learn from another IC main as no-one in NZ plays them.

Are there any plans outlined for what's happening outside of the tournament? I'll go ahead and throw NZ into the top 5 from each state-match you mentioned earlier in the thread (crew battle tournament?) even though a couple of us coming are pretty casual/new it should be good times!

Looking forward to getting stomped and learning, 6 Kiwis confirmed now and 2 more looking likely

[S.D]

Heck yes AUS v NZ crew battle first time in history hype cannot be contained!!!

As for IC players there aren't any notable mains left in Australia, however I used to play them and can still probably give some relevant tips/guidance.

 

[Redact]

crew battles to be single state (vic v nsw v qld v nz/sa/perth?) or are we gonna have some super crew vs vic?

I totes propose myself as vic captain for either situation and all situations

 

[Hobs_]

Has anybody backed the Shadowloo tshirt campaign to bring another pro player down for the tournament? The shirt is pretty neat.

I volunteer as tribute for vic crew.

 

[Redact]

Also how big do people want crews? 5v5? 6v6? 10v10?

need to know the extent of oos attendance in order to figure this out

 

[kelots]

Is that because there are likely to be more players from vic/nsw/qld than sa/perth? (just went and googled to see which state melbourne is in - i know nada about aussie hahahah)

 

[Karnu]

If I have a job by then I'll look at coming for Melee and Projct M

we've done a few different formats before but 5v5 is the most common, there has been bigger before and if it turns out each state would like to put in 8 players instead of 5 we could do that easy. It's up to the other states since melbourne will always have enough since the event is in melbourne.

 

[kelots]

Melbourne vs the world?

 

[Darkwing SykeDuk]

5v5 would be best in terms of viewability, stretching to 8 would let some scrubadubs creep in for unpleasant viewing..

 

[Leeyam]

Also agree with 5v5 if we're having crews from each state, also prob a lot easier timewise.

 

[Mytus]

Yeah, probably keep it around 5 or you'll have the likes of me throwing QLD stocks away.

 

[Jamwa]

you cant keep this skrubadub away from stream, its just not happening soz

 

[Chappos]

Perth should be well represented, 5 skilled players for crew battles will be easy for us.

 

[kelots]

5 sounds logical if you're going to do something like 4 teams of 5

Aus vs the world 10v10 if its the only match :D

 

[S.D]

Trans Tasman battle dictates there should be a momentous best of Australia vs best of NZ match.
We can always run a 5v5 regional crew round robin/mini bracket if everyone turns out, but nationalism trumps regionalism.
Also Skyla the crews will be formed of the top 5 ranked players from each region, so you'd better wreck some scalps next tournament if you want a look in! This is not to be exclusive/elitist, but merely for the sake of the best possible exhibition/spectacle.

 

[kelots]

hahahaha we're gonna get crushed :D

 

[Redact]

currently its looking like vic would be:

dekar
redact
atticus
cao
tom/billy

i vote tom because he is a crew monster

 

[Leeyam]

I guess we do have to start the intense NZ/Aus rivalry/hype legacy thing for years to come with a crew battle, but yea, it won't be pretty.

Gotta start somewhere

Plz don't put tom in against me I still reeling from that uber knee he dished me at Tak's.

 

[Hughie]

A crew without a falcon is a **** crew. If Tom doesn't get in I will cry.

 

[Basty]

Maybe we should have 8v8 Melbourne v Tasmania, 8 Bastys against 8 others

 

[Chappos]

Hoping we can get some PM crew battles happening too, Perth generally plays more PM than Melee.

 

[Redact]

Just a confirmation update here that Armada is now 100% funded, stretch goals/second player is still a thing though!

 

[Basty]

Has anyone posted this http://teespring.com/ssvsmash?

[Basty]

Anyone looking for a PM doubles partner? I'm free

Vic vs rest of aus PM 5v5 crew battle hype anybody?

 

[Splice]

What? You can't forsake NSW in a PM crew battle event!
