How to stage strike/choose a stage:

At the start of the set, your opponent and yourself will strike stages from the Neutral/Starting stage list.

Stage Striking:

1. Both participants/teams can agree to "gentleman", or immediately go, to a starter stage as long as it is a mutual decision
2. If not, smash.gg chooses who bans a stage first
3. Second person/team strikes x stages
4. First person/team strikes x stages
5. The remaining stage is the one where the first match will be played.

Counter-picking (after Game 1):

1. The winning player/team strikes x stages from starters and counter picks
2. The losing player/team chooses whichever stage they like from the remaining ones.
