Hey guys quick intro. I'm Jerkz/JRKZ. I'm a player,organizer,TO, and content creator from Virginia. (SOVA) I've recently gotten more involved with ESports within the FGC, and have always had a liking for Smash. Currently doing what ever I can to help build up the community within our local area.

-Main Topic-
I'm interested in the guidelines and rules for Ultimate since it's right around the corner,and I want to be sure to have a neutral rule set across regions. I'm more then sure certain guidelines will transfer over on how to handle certain things like pausing, timeouts, suicides and so on. But I'm very interested in how the actual rule set will look like when it comes to stocks,time, stage striking,and counter picking (stage, character).And sadly I am not a vip cause those guys are going in on that forum. I'm worried about stages but Im just trying to get a better picture of the rules.


- RULES
Stock: 3
Time: 8 min

Best of 3
Smash Meter: off (subject to change)

Mii Legal 1111 (subject to change)

-Process for stage/ character select
Game 1
Enforce blind pick (TO,write down)
Stage one is randomly selected from universal starters

Or striking 1-2-2-1
First strike decided by RPS


Game 2,3
Strike 2 , loser picks stage (cannot choose stage previously won on within set)
Character select
Winner stays or changes
Loser stays or changes

Stage lists I don't really know I might just look at neutral choices and see what is posted in the future. But here's an idea of what I'd pick for now.

Starters
BF
FD
Smashville
FOD
Pokemon stadium (haz off)

Counters
Warioware (haz off)
Town and city
Yoshi story (melee)
Kalos (haz off)
Frigate (haz off)
Dreamland
Green green (haz off)

It's pretty much similar to old rules but I'm just wondering what changes will or should be made playing ultimate.

You can find me anywhere online @jerkz_squad
I'll be lurking around reading up on what I can.
