Time to finally begin preparing for the...
Super Smash(not so Summer!)Bash!
The SSSB was the first planned Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS tournament, scheduled to occur a week after launch as a "
for fun" tournament where new players, experienced players alike can get together and enjoy casual Smash tournament gameplay with fellow NeoGAF members without having to succumb to the original plain tournament rules of banned stages and whatnot. This tournament is designed to be nothing but
fun, so everything will be vastly different from what tournaments you're normally used to.
It's time to tip the scales?!
This Smash tournament will play with different rules than most Smash tournaments, and they are as follows:
- Five minute, four stocks for matches
- Eight minutes, five stocks for Semi and Grand Final matches
- Single Elimination progression - Best of ONE!
- Items will be on low for all matches except Semi and Grand finals (FS will be on too!) - Items and FS are OFF in Semi/Grands
- Players will be matched with timezones where possible to kickstart this ASAP
- Will begin Monday 13th October and will last until the Sunday
What will be included?
The sole purpose of this tournament is of course, to enjoy Smash and everything it has to offer. As it is not a hardcore, to the bones tournament, the following will apply:
- All stages will be available, the purpose is to fully enjoy what Smash has to offer - Choose your own stages, or even agree with your opponent!
- In the Semi/Grand finals, stages will be Final Destination, all variations are available
- All characters will be available, though I ask you do NOT change your pick and to stick with them the whole tournament!
- As said, players will try and be matched with timezones where possible to easily kickstart the tournament
- There will be opportunity for a 3rd winner (runner-up!) in addition to your normal runner up
I decided I won't take registration yet as it is too early and most likely many will drop out, shall update this closer to release.
Will send out PM's with your first match and date when brackets are all ready to go!
Note:
Final submissions for entry are this Friday so I can create the bracket sheet and customise it to my liking.
