Additional Rules

• Meta Knight’s infinite dimensional cape tactic is banned and will result in a forfeit of the game.
• Ledge grab limit of 35 for timeouts.
• Scrooging is banned and will result in a forfeit of the game. This means that a player may not travel underneath the main stage a second time without first landing on the main stage again (platforms and ledges do not count) or taking damage (excluding from the magnifying glass).
• If a match ends with a self-destruct move causing the players to lose their last stock simultaneously, the results screen will determine the winner. If a sudden death occurs, standard sudden death rules apply. The only exception to this rule is a player successfully landing Ganondorf's or Bowser’s side special on the opponent when the opponent is on their last stock, causing the match to end. The initiator of the move wins regardless of the outcome for these specific exceptions.
