Jedi Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 (edited) This has been a long time coming, but we should have a central hub for tourney results, and suggestions etc. Previous Tournaments Return of Serenes Forest Smash - Winner IceSage, so far the only 32 man Serenes Tourney Joined by Fate - Winner Dotty Radiant Confrontation - Winner IceSage Nerf Me To the Moon Wii U - Winner IceSage Nerf Me To the Moon 3DS - Winner Aura Wolf Thracia77Swiss (Swiss styled tourney with a top 6 finale) - Winner Knife Previous Tournaments that stray from the Norm The King of Dankness (Ganondorf Tournament) - Winner Aura Wolf In Progress Tournaments Draft Crews Round Robin Azure Blue World Suggestions Reverse Main Format - Suggested by Jiac & Euklyd. Current Ruleset we are using for main tournaments. Ruleset3 Stock8 MinutesDouble Elimination.No Customs (barring the small Mii rule at the bottom)Starter StagesFinal Destination BattlefieldSmashvilleTown & CityLylat CruiseCounterpick StagesDreamland 64Duck HuntOmega Stages**In the banning phase, banning Final Destination bans Omegas as well. But as a starter stage, Omega's cannot be chosen regularlySET PROCEDUREPlayers select characters, tell each other your character of choice -Dishonesty will not be tolerated- if a player wishes, they may opt for a blind pick, in which both players secretly inform a neutral third party of their selection, and that person announces both at the same timeFirst stage is selected according to stage striking.Game is playedCounterpicking procedure takes place:Game winner bans 1 stage. This ban is in effect for the following game ONLY.Game loser picks stage from among legal stages. Players/teams may not pick ANY stage they have won on in the set previously except by agreement of the opponent (Stage Clause, also known as Modified Dave's Stupid Rule).Winning player change characters.Losing player may change characters.Next game is played.STAGE STRIKING:Use Game & Watch Hammer (Both players pick G&W and do his side b for the higher number) or flip a coin on Discord. Winner strikes the first stage. Loser then strikes the next two stages. Winner strikes the last one effectively choosing the first stage they play on. (1-2-1)Daves Stupid RuleYou may not counterpick to a stage you have won on in the set unless your opponent agrees to it.Gentlemans RuleIf you and your opponent agree to it, you may play a nonlegal stage (I.E Midgar,Gamer, etc) or a stage won on by the current player picking (It negates Daves Stupid Rule)Mii'sYou may make a Mii for tourney play if you so wish, but you can only setup one of each type and you can't switch their movesets after you lock them in.ReplaysYou are to send replays to me (NNID is Jedisupersonic), each match of your sets, no exceptions, however if you do miss replays you won't be penalized, I'll just be disappointed.

euklyd Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 This is a really useful thread; we should consider asking for it to be pinned. Are we planning to index older tournament threads as well, or just the revived series? I'd suggest separating gimmick tourneys from main-sequence tourneys, though.

I think just the revived series for the time being. Also I'll do that in a mo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euklyd Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I just came up with a really cool, 100% original idea for a tournament entirely on my own! I call it the "Reverse Main" format! Basically, each player uses THEIR OPPONENT'S main in their set!!!!!!!!!11!!!!1! Jedi, I think you should add it to the OP! I'll also post it on Discord since NOBODY HAS HEARD OF SUCH AN IDEA yet!!!

Jedi Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 An idea I had way back was like 4 themed tourneys with like Series 1 being the O12 only Series 2 being the Melee newcomers only Series 3 being Brawl newcomers only And series 4 being 4 newcomers only But I figured no one would really like this.

This sounds fine to me. OR we could do it as an ironman where everyone picks one newcomer from each game, since four tournaments might take too long.

Jedi Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 How about a Customs on reverse main tournament I think that might be a tad much haha. So does anyone have any like stage suggestions? Right now we are using Evo stages, I know some regions use different stages or more stages, was curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Posted October 15, 2016 Author Share Posted October 15, 2016 Castle Seige Funny story with castle siege, at the local in Spokane I occasionally go to, we had Castle Siege legal for a bit of last year, and I kept using it as my counterpick and I had like a 100% victory record on it. So naturally everyone started banning it vs me and then it was determined not legal later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Posted June 16, 2018 Author Share Posted June 16, 2018 (edited) I'm reviving this, welcome to the eventual Hub of Smash Ultimate Tournaments on Serenes Forest, To make this more official I'd like to somehow operate this as a "wifi local" of sorts, if you're not familar smash locals usually try to do a tourney a month or ever few weeks or each week depending. Also seeding will be reset for the new game until we get results. I'm still working out the details, but I'd like some input on ideas. I'm getting some from my Discords too. Edited June 16, 2018 by Jedi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Right_Here Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 So for our first 4 ultimate tournaments, I was thinking we could do something like having them past-game themed. For instance, the first one would limit the characters to smash 64's cast and legal stages. Same thing for melee, brawl, and 4. I don't know about rules like stage striking because I think Ultimate's format will make things weird for that.

This honestly could be really cool, and I’ll keep it in mind for the first tournament and onward. Still need to figure out how to make these faster though I’d rather us do like 2 to 3 a month than 1 every 2 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thany Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 so with the new info on smash bros and their online lobby, is it safe to say we have a better way to do online tournaments here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
