Smash 4 Competitive Items Bracket

Hello fam,

The goal of this ruleset is to incorporate items into competitive Smash 4 play. Having items in competitive play sounds ridiculous at first, but counterpicking items against an friend's character is in itself tactical and surprisingly, very fun.

When i first started putting together this ruleset, I thought items were dumb RNG noncompetitive silliness for children. This is still partially true, except when raw Smash 4 competitive skill is thrown into the mix. As detailed in the document, stupid/noncompetitive items are not allowed, along with a limited total number of items in each match (2 maximum per match). This was a crazy idea at first, but after a lot of testing and some friendlies (and even a small tournament at my college incorporating the ruleset) i was surprised at how much fun the players and I were having.

Just try a set with a friend, and let me know how it goes what changes should be made! A lot of testing went into this, but i'm sure the ruleset could be improved!

Enjoy, Jetpack Little Mac OP

You might be interested in this.

The striking and counterpicking items idea is definitely interesting though, this seems like it could be fun.
