Additional Rules

All tournament sets will be Best of 3 until Top 32, at which point they will become Best of 5

Stagelist
For Game 1, the stage will be selected by a 1-2-1 ban order (with the lower seeded player banning first)
For subsequent games: the winner of the previous game may ban THREE stages. The loser may then pick from the remaining stages
Full DSR is in effect, meaning that no player may counterpick to ANY stage on which they've previously won a game during the current set

During Pools:
All tournament sets played in Pools will be played on the workshop version of the stagelist

During Main Bracket:
Competitors have an options between workshop or basecast stages

DQ Timers:
The first round of Winner's side will have a 10 minute automatic disqualification timer, all subsequent rounds (including all of Loser's Bracket) will have a 5 minute timer.
The timer will return to 10 minutes for the first round of Main Bracket as well.
If your opponent does not show up for 10 minutes after checking in, use the "Call Moderator" function on smash.gg and a TO will be along to assess the situation. If they are delaying bracket, they will be disqualified into losers.

Misc:
If alerted by your opponent you MUST changes alts if requested, if requested during the first 5 seconds of the game, the game will be restarted
If alerted by your opponent you MUST turn off voice modes if requested, if requested during the first 5 seconds of the game, the game will be restarted
All alternative modes on characters WILL NOT be allowed

In the event of a lag test:
A LAN connection IS required for participation in this tournament.
In the event of a lag test, both players must provide proof of LAN or confirm that they are playing on a wireless connection.
Minimum specifications for a "stable connection" are considered to be a "Ping" under 30 ms and an "Upload Speed" above 10 mb/s.
If there is a vast difference between the player's internet speeds, it is up to TO discretion to determine who is the cause of the lag using these guidelines.
