Town & City
Lylat Cruise
Counterpick Stages
Dreamland 64
Duck Hunt
Omega Stages**
* If Battlefield is banned, Miiverse in turn is banned as well. Both stages treated as one.
** Treated as Final Destination in banning phase. If Final Destination is banned, Omega Stages are banned and vice versa.
Set Procedure ==============================================
Pick characters.
Players may elect to do a double blind pick.
Stage Striking: (1-2-1)
Players engage in a round of RPS. Winner of the RPS may choose who strikes the first stage. The other person then strikes the next two stages. The first person to strike then strikes the last one, effectively choosing the first stage they play on.
Stage Bans: During the stage ban phase, the player who won the previous game may ban 1 stage from either the Starter or Counter-pick lists.
Loser selects the stage for the next game.
Note: In best of 5 sets, players must ban after each victory
2nd/3rd match procedure:
1: Winner bans one stage
2: Loser of the previous match chooses a stage to play the next match on
3: The winner of the previous match may elect to change their character
4. The loser of the previous match chooses their character, and starts the match.
Additional Rules ============================================
Maximum time allowed between games is 60 seconds. Violating players will be issued a loss.
Team Colors: Player character colors must match their team color when possible, to avoid confusion (ex: Luigi on the green team must use the green costume).
All controllers are acceptable for this event. If a gamepad is available at the setup in question, you are allowed to use it. However, do not ask us to provide a gamepad for you.
Gentleman’s Clause: If both players agree to play on a banned stage, then it is legal for that set.
Setup Cards =============================================
We will be assigning stations to each set that is played in tournament, and with each set we will be distributing a card with the number of the station written on it. Please display this card prominently on the table in front of the setup. When the set ends, the player that is victorious will need to come back to the TO desk to report the result. If you are playing a set without a card in front of you, it will be assumed that it is friendlies.
This will help us to be more efficient, get tournament completed quicker, and eventually, we'll be able to open up more setups for friendlies when we near the end.
