Default July Tournament Discussion: Super Smash Bros. Brawl

How goes it everyone? 7 months ago this site had its first Brawl tournament, and now the Wii fighter game is rearing its head back for Round 2!! I am Alakazamaster, and I am co-hosting this tournament with the dashing Ayunnuya, and we intend on making this tournament a roaring success! I joined this site thanks to the glorious tourney held back in December, and as such I will do justice to this very tournament. The tournament shall take place on July 31st at 12 Noon Pacific Time. Now, enough babbling and rambling, what say you to the idea of laying down the basic rules?


Type of Battles: One vs. one. Not a lot to say here.


Items off. No items are to be allowed whatsoever. This rule is incredibly important, as not abiding by this rule will result in an automatic disqualification.


Number of Battles: Best two out of three. To avoid possible flukes, three [3] battles will be played. Whomever win two [2] of the three [3] will be declared victor.

Time and Stock: Three [3] stock, and eight [8] minutes. This ensures that there will not be any foolish stalling. If time runs out, however, then whomever had fewer lives and more damage dealt will be declared loser.

No Hacks or Glitches: This should be clear. Hack and you are out.

No Stalling: Jumping and running away without dealing damage is prohibited. Naturally there are characters such as Olimar whom excel at camping, but there is a fine line between that and stalling. Planking/Scrooging is also banned.


Suicide Rules: All suicide techniques are allowed and valid.

Is Switching Characters Allowed: YES.

Stages:
Stages Allowed    
Battlefield, Final Destination, Smashville, Yoshi's Island, Castle Siege, Halberd, Lylat Cruise, Pokemon Stadium (Melee), Brinstar (Melee), Delfino Plaza, Frigate Orpheon, Jungle Japes (Melee), Pictochat, Pirate Ship, Pokemon Stadium 2, Rainbow Cruise (Melee).


Super Nice Bonus Rule: If people taunt after a kill, do not kill them! Let them taunt once and THEN press on the fight!


Welp, those are the rules. More likely than not, some of you may have a few questions. Go ahead and ask them, as that is the reason that this thread was invented! I hope that you did not find anything TOO outrageous or scandalous, and that any conflicts are meager at best.

1) I think any stage should be allowed.
2) Suicide rules. No. No way. That's completely unfair. Either everybody can use suicide moves or none of them can use them. I get what you mean with the sword move and the jump move, but instead, rephrase it somehow, because that's unfair and biased. Which moves do you mean that they(Kirby and Dedede) can use exactly?

We can't even have the brawl ball? It's called super smash bros. brawl, so I think we should at least have that.

1) If enough people back you up with this statement, I would be more than happy to allow all of the stages. Some are banned simply because certain characters have drastic disadvantages there (Ivysaur uses tether recovery and on Summit the edge can not be grabbed), or have a luck element which can cause a victory caused by sheer chance (becoming invincible on Wario Ware to win, or randomly being electrocuted by the surges of energy on Spear Pillar.)

2) There is a reason certain characters are banned from using suicide moves and some are not. Bowser and Ganondorf have moves that are literally IMPOSSIBLE to escape from, a they will always win while performing them because they are on top when the two characters fall off the stage. King Dedede and Kirby's suicide moves involve sucking up the foe and jumping off of the edge. First of all, this move is far harder to perform correctly, as when a foe is sucked up they, can move their control stick back and forth and escape with relative ease. However, if the suicide move is completed and both players have 1 life left, then the two will enter Sudden Death Mode.

Basically, Ganondorf and Bowser have moves that are impossible to stop and essentially provide free wins, as opposed to Dedede and Kirby's which are harder to perform, easier to escape from, and don't even ensure a victory.

Do you mean the Smash Ball? Yeah, that could end up being just a tad unfair when used by characters like Sonic, which are pretty much guaranteed to get a kill with it.

Perhaps you should provide some reasoning as to why they should do what you're asking instead of making snide comments and demands. JADs the only one that provided some reasoning along with his suggestions. Please if you want the rules changed provide reasoning. :V Kaz really had his heart set on making a traditional "tourneytard" tourney wear there is no item hax too hinder anyones ability so everyone may have an equal chance.

if me and my cusion join this can we both use the same game to brawl in the tournament? like if i was to brawl someone and used his game and won, and if he also had a brawl with someone after that, can we use the same game to brawl with as long as we use different names when we pick our characters?
Cause i dont have a wii and this game, but my cusion always brings his game over to my house to play it.

Well your cousin would have to make an account on the site to take part, but I don't mind how you were playing, as long as you could. If he made an account, he could take part.

I'm probably gonna join this, but can you allow the stage Corneria? It's one of my favourites, and I don't think anyone gets an unfair advantage.

Just a statement because I'm finding inconsistencies.

The below two numbers are on the account that both characters are on their final lives.

1) Ganoncides count as Ganondorf's victory if it says he is first-place in the final result, if both characters are equally placed in the final result screen, Ganoncide results in a loss.

2) Same goes for Bowsercides.

Continuing on the topic of cides, tournaments allow these cides because you truly have to be blind to not see the tactic coming.

Even moreso, Bowser and Ganondorf require grabs, very close proximity. Dedede has a different sucking mechanic than kirby in the brawl coding, and also uses SUCKING. Which has MORE range than the two in discussion.

(However, on the above notes and the fact that you can't see final result screens, it should be all cides allowed, or no cides allowed, personally, I go with the no cides allowed.)

3) Time limit should be five minutes, but because I doubt everyone here has the same code that I do to remove recording limits in Brawl, it should have NO time limit. Time limits are installed in tournaments to prevent overtime. It should not be installed in online non-pro matches unless all recipients(spellfail) can commit to coding.

I think we ought to include all stages unless there is one in particular someone objects to. I also think that we should include Smash Balls and Pokeballs on LOW, because smash balls are a main part of the game and pokeballs because WE'RE A POKEMON WEBSITE.

First off, I'd like to say thanks to Kaz for getting this started for me. We discussed these prior to making these threads and tried to reduce every bit of hax possible (however, thanks to Brawl's TERRIBLE wifi, lag will be near inevitable.) So, I'm here to check a few questions.

As mentioned before, we're trying to avoid being haxxed over by random stage deaths and easy item kills.

If anyone has any extra stages in mind, Kaz and I would like to hear them and explain why we excluded them from the touney. For example:

Corneria is a really campy stage. Although camping is technically allowed, it's a bit cheap and detrimental to showing true skill. Also, Arwings like to fly in and blast people, occasionally resulting in stage deaths, which we really don't want.

Oh yeah, and comments from item lovers to "tourney tards" like me, I don't hate items. I brawl with them to have a good time. But this is a more serious tourney. So go ahead. Hate on the no items clause. Won't change my mind. But don't worry. We'll probably have another items tourney in the near future...

Anymore comments, questions, or suggestions?

What happens if my opponet taunts but im attacking before the taunt is even used is that ok about that taunt rule? Like say if i attacked kirby my opponet hit the taunt button my attack is still doing the attack and kirby does the taunt right before being hit. how will that work.

I think I get what your asking. If your killed by someone, give 'em a sec to taunt. If they continue fighting, then you may continue as well.

Field Example:
Mario smashes Bowser off of the stage, resulting in Bowser losing one life. Mario may then taunt once. If Mario taunts, Bowser may not sneak in a free hit. Fighting resumes after the taunt is complete and the taunter resumes basic brawling action.

BUT, if Mario KO's Bowser and makes no attempt to taunt after he respawns, basic brawl ensues.

So in short, if you want to taunt after a KO, do it quickly so you can continue the fight.

Hope it helps!!!

Thank you. Sunny suggested I put that rule in, since he and I often play by said rule when we Brawl.

I don't really care whether items are on or not.

The official "high level tournament" play guide allows suicide kills from all characters. If Bowser's Over B ends the match, then Bowser is considered to win regardless of whether it goes to sudden death or not. It's not like the suicide kills are that broken, as characters that use such things are generally considered "bad" anyway. Of course, I don't plan on using Bowser in a tournament.

Also, due to personal bias, I don't like Jungle Japes or Pirate Ship being unbanned. I personally find both stages to be unfair and rather luck based. Of course, if people want to keep them, that's fine. (You hear that people? Use those stages as counterpicks against me. xD)

Yes, I found it to be a bit unfair to allow certain Counter-Pick stages, so as such I have added all counter-pick stages to the list. Thank you for commenting on this.

I have also allowed the use of all suicide moves, since both you and Krayzee have brought this up.

Bridge of Eldin is banned due to the excessive camping game that can easily be played there, as well as the walk-off edges. Distant Planet also has the walk off edge, as well as the Bulborb and the rain. The checkpoints in Green Hill Zone make camping much easier, and, like the other two, there are walk-off edges. Luigi's Mansion has some very fine reasons for banning, but the main one is the fact that the pillars block projectiles. Mario Circuit has more walk-off edges and karts, while Shadow Moses Island's walls allow for easy infinites. Yoshi's Island is banned because the blocks ruin many KO's, and the center area makes certain recoveries impossible to perform. Corneria allows for camping in the area to the left, and the stage favors characters with vertical KO's. Finally, Onett's size is quite small, and the walls allow for infinites.

Hope this cleared things up.

Distant Planet has walkoffs and the Bulborb, too many stage kills.
Green Hill Zone has walkoffs.
Luigi's Mansion can turn into Final Destination if you Brawl hard enough.
Mario Circuit has walkoffs as well, and can result in too many stage kills due to the karts.
Shadow Moses Island relies too much on the breakaway walls IMO. It also has the rare occurrence of getting a Metal Gear to bust in and kill you.
Melee stages have too many stage kills as well.

Literally every single character can glitch out Bridge of Eldin due to the broken bridge. Examples include (but are not limited to):
  • Giga-lypuff
  • Unable to spawn Smash Balls due to characters keeping them indefinitely
  • Characters using their Final Smash endlessly (ROB, for example)

This tourney is meant to be a more official one, with rules banning items and certain stages and so forth. There will probably be a tourney in the future that allows items, so please stop complaining about items being banned.

Good! I'm with my dad every other weekend due to a recent divorce between my parents. That weekend is one I'm with my mom, so I can use Wi-Fi at my house. Now I need to remember if I've posted my FC on my profile.

EDIT: Profile now updated with Brawl FC.

EDIT 2: After checking a calendar, turns out the 31st is a dad weekend. Oops.

I think I should be able to participate, as long as it's on the 31st. The only thing is that I'm not completely sure if I'll have Wi-Fi, but I most likely will.

The last brawl tournament sucked though

What if there's a tie between all of them? (Also, I'm joining but I might have to forfeit, my brawl disk isn't very trustful)

A tie? I don't understand. It will be 1 on 1 matches, and the best of 3 moves on.

Nice to know that you are joining, but I must remind you all that this is NOT the sign-up thread. The tourney will take place on the 31st of July, at 12 PM Pacific Time. This information has also been added to the main post.

I think Castle Siege should be banned. Not only does it sometimes have walk-off edges, but when you're going in-between areas, you could walk to one side and then find out that you've gone too far, and you die off the edge.

Castle Siege is considered a legal counter-pick stage, and as such is not banned nor will it be banned.

Sure. Basically, you head on to the site the day of the tourney and there will be a check-in thread where all combatants must reply to, saying that they are present and available. Next, head on over to the chatbox since that will be the main area for anything tourney-related. Try to download the Chat Program, since there is a tab on the program specifically for tourneys. Next, check the brackets to see who you are up against. The brackets will be posted when sign-ups close. You must then contact the person you are up against, either through the chatbox, private messaging, or visitor messaging. Once you have each others' Friend Codes, you can battle. Whomever comes out victorious should post on the thread where wins and losses are to be posted. This way, I can keep track of who won and who is out. If you make it to the next round, fight the next person in the brackets and so forth until you either win or lose.

And that's it!

It's generally difficult to tell whether a person is "stalling" or not.

Running away to get a better position to use projectiles or a long range attack = camping

Running away constantly like a pansy trying to avoid all contact with the opponent = stalling

Its ok to try and time out the clock, but you have to be doing something like camping with a projectile.

Also I think the ledgegrab limit rule should be added....FOR METAKNIGHT ONLY!

The ledgegrab rule states that the player cannot grab the ledge 40 times. This rule was inforced due to metaknights perfect planking abilitys. He can't camp on the ledge with his shutter loop attack and be perfectly safe. he litteraly has no frames wear he can be hit while hes doing that. Either that or just inforce metaknight not being able to shutter loop camp on the ledge.

Heh. I don't really care If we can't use some characters or stages or items. Makes my job easier.
However, Items are fun and so are some of the stages mentioned, but whatever. It's fine with me.

and LEAF? Shut it. No one wants to listen to you.

No Stalling: Jumping and running away without dealing damage is prohibited. Naturally there are characters such as Olimar whom excel at camping, but there is a fine line between that and stalling.
Add Planking/Scrooging. I was gonna failplank in this tourney when I read that.

I won't be here anyways, I thought I'd help though. I played a certain person and it got really annoying to hear PEEKAY FIER repeadtedly. It's like saying camping with a nuke is a tactic, and it's not.

PK FIRE is useless when spammed. xD All ya gotta do is shield it. I mean its incredibly predictable when ness starts shouting PK FIYAH. Sure it can lead to a grab if it actually hits, but it won't ever against anyone that knows how to shield or roll properly. =w= Ness can't camp because his long ranged moves are easily shielded or leave him helpless. A good example of a campy character is falco or pikachu. Especially falco. :V

Just saying if your fighting a spammy player just walk up to em, shield there projectile then punish them....unless its falco. :C Everyone can be punished for spamming with by shielding and slowly advancing or punishing depending on how far away they are!....except that jerk falco. :V
