Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Official Super Smash Bros. Wii U League

 

We're less than a week away from the release of the Wii U version of Super Smash Bros. now and it is time to join the VGC Super Smash Bros. League. It will be hosted by myself and Smeags.

It'll be pretty much the same as the 3DS League as far as rules go: 

Super Smash Bros. League

  • Every player starts out with 100pts, you can join at any time.
  • You can challenge only people who are within 3 ranks of you (Ex. if you're in 5th place, you can issue a challenge to users ranks 2 to 4).
  • Once a challenge is issued, it must be retained for at least 24 hours (once that period has passed without an answer the player may choose to remove the challenge and challenge someone else)
  • You can have a maximum of 2 active challenges
    Challenges have to be accepted within 3 days (or else you'll suffer a 2 pts penalty).
  • Once the challenged user accepts, both players must battle within that 3 day period (plus a 24 hour extention). Any player who does not show up (whether it be the challenger or the challenged player) will suffer a 10 point deduction
  • Challenges must be made public in the League thread as well as accepted challenges and results of the match.
  • Matches will be a best of 3 rounds, 3 stocks, 8 minutes, no items.
  • The loser of the previous round may change character and will get to chose the next stage they will battle on (counterpick). The winner must keep the character he won with.

Points

Rank Difference Win Loss
3 Higher +14 -1
2 Higher +12 -2
1 Higher +10 -4
Same +8 -6
1 Lower +6 -7
2 Lower +4 -8
3 Lower +2 -10

Philosophy

  • Everyone starts on equal footing
  • The points distribution favors activity/challenges since you can gain points quicker by challenging someone then by waiting for a challenge.
  • The lead the top player can amass isn't too big since he can only gain a maximum of 6 pts per challenge and can lose it pretty quickly but a dominant player is still rewarded for his exploits.
  • On the other end, lower ranked players don't lose pts too fast and can regain a few positions quickly with some wins.

Notes

- If you decide to join before launch, you will be expected to get the game at launch. "I don't have the game yet." won't be a valid excuse to turn down a challenge.
- Since everyone starts at 100pts, everyone will be able to challenge anyone at first but you can't issue more than two challenges at once.
- The League will officially start on November 22nd 
- I know the rules can sound complicated but Smeags and I will be the ones doing the number crunching, all you guys need to do is play, enjoy and prove you're the best there is.
- You can join, right now!

This sums it up pretty well. Smash for 3DS is pretty much the first Smash game I really got into, but from the start I always knew it was training season before the real thing. (though to be honest playing on the GamePad might as well be handicapped season before I get the Pro Controller )


The gamepad is mile better that the 3ds controls :p, is easy to get used to, I can play any game on that thing but I would destroyed with smash that's why I have a wii u pro controller :P
