Welcome to BrawLBlazer's second online tournament here in the OTL! This will be a Nintendo franchise exclusive tournament. Fret not at the title, as I will explain the theme and rules:

Theme:

Each round of the tournament will consist of characters from a certain Nintendo franchise. The starter stage also must hail from that specific franchise, but the counterpicks may be any legal stage. For example, the starter for the Fire Emblen stage must be Castle Siege, as it is the only stage representing that series. The characters allowed would be :marth: and :ike: in that example.

Here are all the possible characters and stages in this tournament:

Mario Franchise:
Characters: :mario2: :luigi2: :peach: :bowser2:
Starter Stage(s): Delfino Plaza, Rainbow Cruise

Mario "Extras" Franchise: (Yoshi, DK, and Wario Franchises)
Characters (have made numerous appearances in the Mario franchise, and are such accounted for) :yoshi2: :dk2: :diddy: :wario:
Starter Stage(s): Yoshi's Island (Brawl), Jungle Japes

Zelda Franchise:
Characters: :link2: :zelda: :shiek: :ganondorf: :toonlink:
Starter Stage(s): Pirate Ship

Pokemon Franchise:
Characters: :pikachu2: :jigglypuff: :lucario: :pt:
Starter Stage(s): Pokemon Stadium 1, Pokemon Stadium 2

Kirby Franchise:
Characters: :kirby2: :metaknight: :dedede:
Starter Stage(s): Halberd

Metroid Franchise:
Characters: :samus2: :zerosuitsamus:
Starter Stage(s): Brinstar, Frigate Orpheon

StarFox Franchise:
Characters: :fox: :falco: :wolf:
Starter Stage(s): Lylat Cruise

Fire Emblen Franchise:
Characters: :marth: :ike:
Starter Stage(s): Castle Siege

Earthbound/Mother Franchise:
Characters: :ness2: :lucas:
Starter Stage(s): Onett (Yes, it's banned, but there's no other choice besides New Pork City and who would want to fight there?)

"Loners Franchise": (Includes franchises with only one character representing)
Metal Gear Franchise: :snake:
Ice Climbers Franchise: :popo:
Pikmin Franchise: :olimar:
Game & Watch Franchise: :gw:
Kid Icarus Franchise: :pit:
R.O.B. Franchise: :rob:
Sonic Franchise: :sonic:
F-Zero Franchise: :falcon:
Starter Stage(s): All are banned (lol), so the Smash Bros. Stages (Final Destination and Battlefield) will do.


Rules:

-16 Man Tournament

-Double Elimination

-3 Stock

-8 Minute Time Limit

-Items to be set to OFF and NONE

-All matches are best 2/3 except for Finals

-If a match ends with a suicide move which leads to sudden death, then the person who initiated the suicide is declared the winner of that match.

-The winner is determined by stock, then percent, and then sudden death.

-No stalling (If you can, please provide a replay of every match and send them to me)

-Both players may ban a stage at the start of the set

-After the neutral/starter stage, the loser of that match will counterpick a legal counterpick, and so on.

-Meta Knight's Infinite Dimensional Cape is banned.

-If the lag is unbearable, the set will be decided by a coin flip.

Yoshi's Island (Brawl)
Castle Siege
Delfino Plaza
Frigate Orpheon
Halberd

After this post, I will no longer update the participants until April 30th. I'm expecting them to be filled by then, and hopefully the tournament will start the day I come back.

All the lonely ones should be in the final round together in one group imo...

Then with that logic, let Sonic in! He is part of the Olympic series (yes, it is a series now!) :mad088:

If I am the only Lucas when it comes time to the Mother franchise ima get at some people.

Btw I think Norfair should be on the list for the Metroid franchise.

Also during the pokemon franchise. Going Jiggs :3


Also if ROB is in put GW/Olimar in.

This.

Good luck with that.

Those two never appeared in any of the other's games unlike ROB did.

Yes, I know I said I wouldn't be online or update until April 30th, but I've decided to lurk and sneak on even though I should be studying <_<.

Actually, yes I agree. I miscalculated, and I realized that there should be ten franchises in total as it is double elimination. Thus, I will group the loners and the Mario extras (:dk2:, :diddy:, :yoshi2: and :wario:) into separate groups.

ROB was in mario kart =p

It was a one time appearance. I will not consider cameos, one-time appearances, or appearances in any non-main series game (e.g. Mario sports) This will cover Sonic, Game and Watch, ROB, etc.

If I am the only Lucas when it comes time to the Mother franchise ima get at some people.

Btw I think Norfair should be on the list for the Metroid franchise.
I will probably use Lucas as well during the Earthbound Round, and Norfair sucks.

Now, with that covered, I should get back to studying. Procrastinating like this will only help me fail. :urg:

If either.
