Amiibo Tournament, 75+ contestants

First topic message reminder :

Hey friends. I've been a lurker for a while, but I want to see how my guys fare against yours! I have 75 trained amiibo who have been competing in my own personal tournament for the better part of 8 months now. I'd love to get some new blood in the mix! Email me your entrants to josef.santos12@yahoo.com with the Subject "Amiibo Tournament".

I will use a Challonge Bracket. Accepting Amiibo until 10am on 11/14, starting the tournament at ~10:30am on 11/14.

Rules:

• Singles Format
  
• Single Elimination
  
• EDIT: 2 Stock, No Time Limit (Best of 3, Quarters, Semis, and Finals are Best of 5)
  
• Smash Balls on Low
  
• Random Omega Stages
  
• Stats must be legit (Equal 120 or less)
  
• No bans
  
• All Amiibo will be saved. If you want a copy of your Amiibo Post-Tournament please let me know via email after the tournament is over.
  

Thanks for your participation! I still need a name for the tournament if you have any ideas let me hear em! :D
Also debating giving a prize if someone that is not me takes first place.. which I think is likely, I don't think my guys are all that great.. I'm not sure what Amiibos are rare anymore, so if someone wins I might just get them one of their choosing from Amazon. Again, I haven't decided this part yet.




Thank you to all who participated, I truly enjoyed running this large tournament and it helped exploit some of the weaknesses that I was blind to see in some of my guys. I look forward to being around more and participating in more tournaments/running more of my own. Good games to all and congrats to the winners.

I'm thinking that I will run another tournament, but this time doubles. Tentative start date would be 12/5. Hoping for 50 teams, I will be limiting my entrants this time around. Thanks again for all! 


CURRENT NUMBER OF COMPETITORS: 163

UPDATE: I will be randomizing all Amiibo including my own using Excel. I hadn't anticipated this many entrants and it's getting a little difficult to keep everything organized, but I will continue to accept until Monday. I will put a cap on it if it reaches 215 Amiibo.

UPDATE2: 2 Stock and No Time Limit. Again the number of entrants threw me off lol.


UPDATE3: Starting at 11:15CST. Just making sure everything is organized and ready to go. Also contacted some people who had issues sending their guys in, hopefully they can get them to me asap!

UPDATE4: Let the games begin! I had one participant who had issues sending their 5 contestants to me. I held 5 spots in the tournament for him and expect to have his participants later this afternoon. Until then, I will refrain from starting those matches, but the tournament will continue without them. Once I have his amiibo in, then I will catch them up to the current round. Those spots are marked with "Spot Held". I took my 5 worst amiibo out of the tournament to hold those spots. His amiibo will be randomly selected for each held spot.


UPDATE5: Break time! I might continue tonight and try to finish off Round 2.. But I am not sure how likely that will be. If I don't, then I will continue on tomorrow around 10:30 am CST. It's been awesome hosting thus far! Thanks for joining in!

UPDATE6: Will continue later this afternoon!

Sending My best (and worse(and my other best(And my favorite)))

You do know what you're getting yourself into, correct? I would do two stocks over three.

Went through my amiibo, picked out about 8 for the pool

Six minutes seems pretty short for 3 stocks, going to be a lot of timeouts

I agree, a properly trained/defensive amiibo takes around 3 minutes for a two stock round, some much longer such as Olimar or Duck Hunt.

In my personal ones, the most recent top ten tournament was:
1 Little Mac
2 Ness
3 Robin
4 Pikachu
5 Mii Swordfighter
6 Luigi
7 Ganondorf
8 Wii Fit Trainer
9 Peach
10 Zelda

But there have been a mix or crazy in the last few with some upsets. I have every smash amiibo and some doubled, so there's a lot to be prepared for! :D

Honestly, I'll probably not even use a time limit. I'd like to see everything haha. My freakin' Duck Hunt keeps the round going for ages if I don't set a timer though lol.

Mac is OP, I discourage the use of him.

Haha, I do. I'll probably do portions of the brackets over a couple days so I don't go crazy. But I'd love to see how my guys stack up and I'd love to see yours!

Blue wrote:Mac is OP, I discourage the use of him.

I know. I've been training my guys specifically to learn how to play against him. There's around 10 or so that have beaten my #1 Mac a few times. I'm hoping he gets knocked out tbh. lol, but I'm leaving no bans and letting it roll.
