• If time runs out, the winner is determined by stock, and then by percentage.

• If both stock and percentage are identical, or a game ends with both players being KO'd simultaneously, then a tiebreaker is played. A tiebreakers is a 1 stock, 3 minute match with the same characters and the same stage.

• All people are responsible for their own control scheme/name tag and must make sure it is set before the match begins. Both players must agree to restart a match on account of a controller problem.

• Stalling is banned. (Stalling is defined as any action that deliberately avoids all conflict as to make the game unplayable. Running from an opponent to get to a better position is not considered stalling.)

It varies. We have some that are still newer at the game and not so great and then we have some participants that more recently got top 20 at Smash Con.

Hey. I've been looking for smash tournaments in my area, and this looks pretty cool, but the times I could come do this are pretty limited. How often do you guys hold this tournament?

This is held every Sunday minus this Sunday due to weather. Next one will be on the 31st.

ok cool thanks for letting me know

And just one more question. This is my first time I might be going to a tournament and I'm not really sure what name tags are. Do you mean like our nickname on the game or what?

Some friends and I want to go to the tournament. I also have a wii u w/ all the dlc stages and characters and a monitor that i could bring. When is the best to arrive and register in time for pools and is it possible to do both doubles and singles?
