Stage & Banning rules:

First stage picked by striking from neutrals, P1-P2-P2-P1 order.

Following stages decided by winner banning THREE stage from the stages listed above then loser chooses from the remaining stages

There is no Dave’s stupid rule (NO DSR). A player may pick any stage they previously won on during the set, assuming it is not banned from stage selection that phase.

You cannot play on a stage that is not on the available stages list. This will result in a double disqualification
