Tournament Rules __________________________________________________
Louisiana General Melee Ruleset The Ruleset 4 stock
8-min. time limit
Items set to "None"
Best 2 of 3 games
Double Elimination Bracket - 60/30/10 cash split
The Stage List Starter
Battlefield Dream Land 64 Final Destination Fountain of Dreams Yoshi's Story Counterpick
Brinstar Kongo Jungle 64 Pokemon Stadium Rainbow Cruise Banned
The rest The Procedure Game 1 is played on one of the starter stages. At this time, both players stage strike, meaning that each one of you eliminates one stage until one is left, then you play on that stage.
Game 2 starts the counterpick system in a sense if you so choose. It goes like this: Loser of Game 1 chooses the next stage for Game 2, then the winner of Game 1 picks his/her character, then the loser of Game 1 picks his/her character. Game 2 then begins. The process for Game 3 is the same if the match gets to it.
When Game 2 starts, both players each get one stage ban, meaning whatever stage a person decides to ban, that stage cannot be picked for the duration of the match.
Extra rules - Wobbling IS allowed, but it must not go beyond 200% to prevent excessive stalling.
- Dave's Stupid Rule is applied - A player may not pick a stage that he/she has already won on.
- Ties are broken by stocks, then percentage.
- Kirbycides count towards the Kirby winning the match.
