TOURNAMENT CANCELLED
Japes of Wrath


a brawl minus tournament

OP will be updated with a banner within the next month.


What?


Japes of Wrath is the first in a tournament series, specifically for Brawl Minus. It will be run with version 2.1.1 until we release version 2.X, just to allow for people to practice. This tournament will be running with 2.X.

When?

Date is highly subject to change, but I'm tentatively saying May 5th.

Where?

I still need to get final confirmation on the venue, expect full details within a week.

How much?

Venue fee: TBA
Singles: $10
Doubles: $15 ($7.50 per team member)
Side Event: Project M, $2 entry

Pot Split

1st: 60%
2nd: 30%
3rd: 10%

Ruleset


General Game Play Rules
~ 4 Stocks
~ 8 Minute Time Limit
~ Items set to "OFF" and "NONE"
~ Pause set to "OFF"
~ The winner will be determined by what the game says in all situations except:
- Suicide rule: If Ganondorf ends the set by grabbing his opponent with side-B, the results screen is ignored and Ganondorf is considered to lose. With regards to all other suicide moves, the results screen is used always.
- In the event of a match going to time, the winner will be determined by who has less percent (stock difference still takes priority but will be shown in the results screen).
- Any situation not covered above which results in Sudden Death will be played as a 1 stock 2 minute rematch on the same stage with the same characters.

Modified Rules for Doubles

~ Team Attack set to "On"
~ Life stealing is allowed.
~ In the event of a game going to time and both teams have an equal amount of combined stocks, then whichever team has a lower combined percent is declared the winner.

Set Procedure

~ Player Priority is determined if it can not be agreed on.
~ Each Team selects one controller port to use for each Player.
~ Each Team selects one character for each Player. A double blind pick may be called by any player.
~ The first game is played on a Stage selected from the Starter Stage List either by mutual consent or through the Stage Striking Method. The order of stage striking will be 2-3-1 (Team 1 strikes two stages, followed by Team 2 striking three stages, with Team 1 then striking one of the two remaining stages).
~ The first match is played.
~ The team that lost the previous match may opt to re-pick controller ports (with themselves picking first).
~ The Team that won the previous match may announce four "Stage Bans" if they have not already done so in this set.
~ The Team that lost the previous match announces the stage for the next match from either the Starter or the Counterpick Stage List. Any Stage named as a "Stage Ban" by the either Team may not be selected. No Stage may be used by a Team that has already won on that Stage in this set.
~ The Team that won the previous match chooses one character for each Player.
~ The Team that lost the previous match chooses one character for each Player.
~ The next match is played.
~ Repeat steps 6-11 for all proceeding matches.

Standard conduct rules apply, use common sense.

Now THIS is something I can at least pretend I have a shot with.
I just need to decide who I'm going to play as.
I'm going until proven otherwise.

LMAO.


In all seriousness, I wish that my local community had the kind of support that made pure Brawl- tournaments possible. I can barely get away with running it as a side event at my own damn tournament. :( Good luck, guys.

I argue with 4 stage bans having something as ridiculous as Big Blue works.

Also YAY ruleset + stagelist guys!

Just throwing this out, the stagelist is absolutely guaranteed to change by release. And by change I mean acquire more stages.

We could have a setup and side event of Project: M, yeah.

$2 entry'll probably be fine.

Just know it won't be getting stream time at all. This is a strictly Brawl Minus tourney and I reserve the right to shut down any and all non-Minus setups if they're needed to run the tourney.

A big part of it is interest I'm afraid. I mean... look at attendance -_-

Like... 20 people TOPS. Most OoC people who would likely bail BECAUSE of the low attendance.
