More details and rules follow the link:

Match progression:

1. Players choose their characters in a double-blind fashion.
2. Each player may ban a stage for the match from the counterpick selection.
3. First game on a random, neutral stage.
4. Loser chooses their counterpick stage.
5. Winner chooses their character.
6. Loser chooses their character.
7. Next game is played.
8. If a third game is necessary, repeat steps 4-7.

Additional Rules:

• Players are responsible for their own controller/control scheme and name tag, and should confirm settings before the start of the match.
• In the event of a dispute, controller ports will be decided by Rock, Paper, Scissors.
• In the event of time expiry, the winner is chosen by by lowest percentage instead of sudden death.
• Any action that can prevent the game from continuing (i.e., freezing, disappearing characters, game reset, etc.) will result in a forfeit of that match for the player that initiated the action.
• Stalling is banned (i.e. the act of deliberately avoiding any and all conflict so that one may make the game unplayable).

Character-Specific:

• Metaknight is banned from character selection.
• Metaknight’s Infinite Cape glitch is banned (on the off-chance someone chooses random and gets him).
• If a game ends with Bowser doing his suicide klaw and it ends in sudden death, the sudden death will be ignored and that game will count as a win for Bowser.
