***
#### 1.1 Set Length

* All tournament sets will be a best-of-3 games, until a top cut where games are extended to best-of-5 games. The recommended top cut is 3.125%, for example, the top 32 in a 1024 entrant bracket, or the top 16 in a 512 entrant bracket. 
***
#### 1.2 Set Procedure

* Players select their characters. Either player may elect to do Double Blind Character Selection (see section 1.4)
* Use Starter Stage Striking to determine the first stage
* The players play the first game of the set
* Winning player of the preceding game strikes 2 stages (when applicable).The losing player of the preceding game picks a stage for the next game
* The winning player of the preceding game may choose to change characters.
* The losing player of the preceding game may choose to change characters after the winning player has decided to change characters or not.
* The next game is played.
* Repeat Steps 4 through 8 for all subsequent games until the set is complete.
***

#### 1.3 Stage Agreement Clause
* Players may select any LEGAL stage if they both agree on it. Players may not play on illegal stages or change the length of a set. If this is violated, both players will be subject to complete disqualification from the event.
***

#### 1.4 Double Blind Character Selection
* Either player may request that a double blind selection occur. In this situation, a referee or third party will be told, in secret, of each player’s choices for the first round. Both players are to then select their first round character, with the referee validating the character selections.
***

#### 1.5 Stage Striking
* Players play a best-of-1 Rock-Paper-Scissors, and winner may choose to either strike a stage first or select a port first. Stages are stuck in a P1-P2-P2-P1 order.
***

#### 1.6 Pausing
* Pause setting should be off. However, if it is not, pausing is only legal while either player remains upon their OWN respawn platform, and only for the purpose of summoning a tournament official or in the case of a controller malfunction. All other pauses will incur a stock loss to the player who pauses the game. If the pause causes the opponent to lose a stock, the player who pauses forfeits 2 stocks
***

#### 1.7 Stalling
* Stalling, or intentionally making the game unplayable, is banned and at the discretion of tournament staff. Stalling includes but is not limited to becoming invisible, continuing infinites past 300%, and reaching a position that your opponent can never reach you. Stalling will result in a forfeit of the game for the player that initiated the action.
***

#### 1.8 Self-Destruct Moves
* If a game ends with a self-destruct move, the results screen will determine the winner. If a sudden death occurs, standard sudden death rules apply (see 1.9).
***

#### 1.9 Sudden Death
* If a game goes to Sudden Death, the winner is determined by stocks and percentage at the time the game ends. If both players are tied in stocks the player with the lower percentage is the winner. In the event of a percentage tie, or a game in which both players lose their last stock simultaneously, a 1 stock tiebreaker will be played with a 3 minute time limit. The results of an in-game 300% Sudden Death do not count. If Sudden Death occurs in a Sudden Death game, this process is repeated.
***

#### 1.10 Warm-ups
* Warm-up periods, button checks, and “handwarmers” may not exceed 30 seconds on the game clock. Violation of this rule may result in an automatic forfeit at the discretion of the TO.
***

        * 2nd offense (major): Player receives a game loss.
        * 3rd offense (severe): Player and offending coach receive complete disqualification from the event

#### Guideline for violations

* Cheering -  Nondescript statements such as “Lets Go!”, “You got this!”, or “mess them up!”. These are not violations
* Minor violation - General statements such as  “Play Slow”, “Take your time” or “Hit him!”
* Major violation - Specific statements pointing out habits, specific options, or timings such as “Watch for his neutral getup!”, “His waft is almost ready!” or “He keeps rolling!”
* Severe violation - Physical interference to either player.

_Tournament Staff reserve the right to judge on what is deemed “coaching” and the severity of the violation._
***

* Anyone who is not present for their set by 5 minutes past the scheduled start time is subject to a set loss
***

#### 1.14 Collusion
* Players suspected of colluding may be immediately disqualified from the tournament. This includes intentionally throwing a game, splitting a payout, or committing any other form of bracket manipulation. The TO reserves the right to deny payout of event winnings to any player suspected of colluding.
***

#### 1.15 Misinterpretation/Misconfiguration
* Games or sets are not to be replayed due to a misinterpretation of the rules OR misconfiguration of game settings. Game settings should be configured according to section 2.1. It is the players’ responsibilities to ask the TO for any clarification of the rule set in the event of a disagreement, and the outcome of a game or set will not be changed after the fact unless under extreme circumstances, judgment reserved for tournament staff.
