Smash Hero
In conjunction with the announcement of the online ratings project, the SBR will be hosted a rated tournament! Our kickoff event will be round robin style. The first two round will consist of two 4-person pools. The top-2 contestants in each round robin will advance to a second pool of 4, where the winner of the tournament will be determined. The purpose of a round robin style tournament is so more matches are played, increasing the accuracy of the ratings generated from the results.
We regret to announce that at this time, only North American players may participate. If there is enough interest, the SBR can hold events for Europe, South America, and other regions in the future.
This tournament uses the SBR Recommended Ruleset:
Game Settings
Mode: STOCK
Stocks: 5
Handicap: OFF
Team Attack: ON
Stage Select: ON
Damage: 100%
Item Switch: NONE
All Characters Available
Stages
The Starter Stage List consists of Congo Jungle, Hyrule Castle and Dream Land.
The Counterpick Stage List consists of Peach's Castle.
First match of all sets is selected by a 3-stage striking system with the Starter Stage List. An impartial observer/tournament organiser flips a coin to decide who strikes first. Rock-paper-scissors is alright too, but it's technically a skill irrelevant to smash. If this is impossible (online), whoever strikes first will be pre-decided by an RNG.
The 64 Recommended Ruleset uses the stage striking system. In this system, players take turns striking stages from the Starter Stage List until only one remains; these stages are not banned and can be counterpicked later in the set.
Characters
All characters are legal.
Black DK (Right-C), Dark Samus (Down-C) and Dark Falcon (Right-C) are discouraged if Congo Jungle is the stage for visibility reasons. The opposing player may reset the match without penalty if they wish for a colour change. Taking or dealing any damage nullifies this right.
Low Tiers are all characters in B tier and below: Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Jigglypuff, Ness, Luigi, Samus and Link.
Set Procedure
Players select characters for first match. Double Blind Picks may be called.
Players strike stages.
The first match is played.
The loser of the previous match selects the next match's stage from the Starter Stage and Counterpick Stage Lists.
The winner of the previous match selects their character.
The loser of the previous match selects their character.

Above four steps are repeated if necessary.
