Event Rules

These are the rules for the NBH Smash Ultimate Singles and Doubles Tournaments

3 Stocks 7 Minutes

The list of legal stages are (Hazards off) :

  • Final Destination*
  • Battlefield*
  • Pokemon Stadium 2
  • Small Battlefield
  • Smashville / Hollow Bastion
  • Town & City
  • Kalos Pokémon League

(Any stage with a '/' means that you may choose either version of the stage.) *You can also play on most Omega and Battlefield versions of all stages. If you are not sure which you can and can not play on, contact your TO.

Steps :

  1. The players will do rock paper scissors and the winner will ban two (2) stages from the list of starter stages.
  2. The loser will ban three (3) stages, and the winner will ban one (1) more afterwards.
  3. The remaining stage will be where the first game is played.
  4. The players will then select their respective characters and play the game. This can be done normally or via double blind.
  5. After the game ends, the winner will ban three (3) stages from the list of stages. DSR (Dave's Stupid Rule) is in effect.
  6. The loser will then choose the stage. No player can go back to the stage they have previously won on (DSR).
  7. Repeat step 5 to 6 until one player has 2 wins in a best of 3 set, or 3 in a best of 5 set.
  8. Return to the stage menu and disconnect all wireless controllers from the setup.
  9. Report the score to the T.O along with characters used, stages chosen, and stock counts.

Additional Rules :

  • No custom balance setting, items or Final Smash meter.
  • All characters are legal. Miis must be made with their loadout being their name i.e. 1111, 2222, 1231 etc
  • No infinites or stalling.
  • Modified Gentleman's agreement. As long as both members of the match agree to any legal stage, it may be played on. However, you cannot request a replay of the match if you disagree afterwards.
  • If there is an issue with control schemes, stage pick, or some other issue, it must be brought to the T.O's attention immediately. If not, there are no repeat games.
  • In the event of a timeout, the player with the higher stock count or lower percentage wins, Sudden Death wins do not count.
  • If a game ends in an exact tie, a one stock match on the stage must be played to determine a winner.
  • If a player pauses, they must lose a stock. If the pause is done for style when the opponent will obviously lose their stock the player will not lose his stock.
  • If a player forfeits (quits) they will lose the game.
  • For other questions, ask your respective T.O.
