Fighting Tournament Weekend: Combo Breaker, RedBull Kumite, ELEAGUE, Tekken 7 UK

Beastapac has done this rules format for their Finals at CPT Asian Finals, but that was a round robin throughout the entire tournament.
 
Yeah, I don't quite get it - I think it's to prevent a short GFs.

HOTS has done this w/ tournaments in the past - but it's a MOBA w/ map bans and longer games and makes way more sense there.

it is indeed for that reason, this rule variation is generally used to avoid the amount of variance GF can produce in a double elimination tournament time-wise

OHHOHOHO
 
Literally every character in SFV bruh

And, most fighting games.

Community optimizes, and eventually everyone uses the best options.

People like to talk like previous SF games were a rainbow colored cornucopia of variety...but they really weren't lol.
Most people use the same optimized combos every time...in any fighting game.
