SSBB MAY 2009 LEAGUE RULES

League participants play in a combination of 1 on 1 matches and free-for-all (4-player) matches to accumulate points. The 6 highest-scoring players will be invited to participate in the Super Smash Bros Brawl League Playoffs, beginning Monday, June 1.

Each Monday’s league session will allow players to participate in as many Super Smash Bros Brawl games as we can schedule during the time allotted. The more matches played, the more points accumulated toward playoff eligibility.

League matches will be played on Battlefield, Brinstar, Delfino, Pokemon Stadium 1, Pokemon Stadium 2, Final Destination, Smashville, or Yoshi’s Island (Brawl version) stages. Items will be OFF, with the only exception being that in the last matches of each league week, we will have one random item on (with medium frequency).

All league matches will be “timed stock” matches, with 3 lives and 7 time minutes. Sudden death will determine the winner of matches that go into overtime.

Stall tactics or other actions which have the potential to infinitely prolong a match are not allowed and will result in an immediate match loss. Continued use of stall tactics or other illegal maneuvers within the game will result in permanent disqualification from the league without refund.

Players are allowed (and encouraged) to bring their own Wavebird controllers if they have one and would like to use it. Wired GameCube controllers are not allowed. Any indication that a personal Wavebird controller is modded in any way which affects gameplay will result in immediate disqualification from the league without refund.

Players are responsible for their own nametag and control preferences. Any settings changes must be made prior to the beginning of any match.
