Prelude To Smash Presents: The Low Tier Zone

This is the 5th tournament of Prelude To Smash. The Low Tier Zone is exactly what it sounds like. There will be absolutely no high tier characters in this tournament, except for friendlies matches. It will also feature a randomly paired 2v2 team event, and of course a traditional prize drawing.

Venue:
This event is at the very nice Wyndham Hotel meeting room, with great AC and space for a huge amount of set ups. The event is located off of highway 249 right next to Dairy Queen. Please see the map for location. Yes, Dairy Queen is right next door to us. But, that does not mean you won't get disqualified for being late to your match. If you get something to eat or drink, please keep in mind that if you are 5 minutes late to your match then you will be DQ'd. Also, I will issue warnings for wireless controllers of any kind that is not de-synced after a match. After this warning you will be sent to losers bracket. if this still persists for the same person causing the issue. That person will be disqualified from the tournament. Same rule applies for being late to your match.

Prize Drawing:
We will continue our traditional prize drawing. You will receive a free ticket upon registration. Any other additional tickets will be $1. The prizes include:

1. Jigglypuff amiibo
2. $20 Game Stop gift card

Does this mean Mewtwo is legal if the tourney is going off of this tier list
Never mind! Mewtwo is not legal anymore. The recent patch and buffs he got has made him significantly higher on the list.

We should still be ok. Anyone driving to the event needs to drive safe that day.
