question

[Goku_1984]

I read this rule for brawl 'Resolving Ties: Any games ending in time running out should always be decided by stock, and then percents. If percents are the same or both players die simultaneously, there will be a 1 stock overttime or the sudden death will be played out. The TO needs to decide which of these will be used before the tournament. Bowser's suicide klaw is exempt from this rule.' and for melee 'Ties will be broken by lives, then percentage. In the event of a percentage tie, one stock sudden death will be played'. for smash 64 there isn't a rule for tie,in general which is? thanks in advance

there's no time

You cannot put a time limit on a stock match. Therefore, the match plays out until it's over... even if it takes weeks (ok, not that long, but you get the point).

no,the question is what happen if a tie happen in smash 64. there is a sudden death or people can choice to make 1 stock as brawl?

 

[MarioReincarnate]

ties are so rare that if it ever happened people would probably just play again with whatever rules they want

I think you're talking about time matches.

In stock matches there is no "tie" or a timer during stock matches as well.

Whoever plays time matches on a tournament setting must be heavily influenced by brawl

SSB64 5-stock matches are very rarely long, unless both players are hyper camping b¡tches.

ties happen but it doesn't say it... it'll give 1p the win i think, or whoever has the most kills... but if its 5 kills to 5, then i think it defaults to 1p, which is unfair

 

[Blue Yoshi]

Both characters can die at the same time (i.e. on the same frame). But as said before, it gives the win to someone. It does not go to sudden death... to my knowledge...

If it were to happen, just restart the match, or make it a 1 stock match or something.

Player one always wins in cases where both players die at the same time.

Actually, I think p4 always wins in cases where both players die. I got bored, went 4 *insert character here* (did it with many characters), and set them all to the same control. I made them all die at the exact same time (they all had no stocks left). First was p4, 2nd was p3, 3rd was p2, and 4th was p1.
