Title: NWR Super Smash Bros. Playoffs Semi-Finals
Post by: oksoda on May 04, 2015, 01:44:05 AM

We are down to four teams and three of them haven't lost yet. Who will prevail?

We only had one upset in the first round of our playoffs, as the 5th-seeded RFN team beat the 4th-seeded Famicast squad. That means RFN will face off against the top-seeded PGC team, which features longtime RFN co-host/editor Greg Leahy. That should be fun.

On the other side, we have a battle of the unbeatens, as 3rd-seeded Newscast takes on the 2nd-seeded Mousers team. The Mousers have the regular season MVP Justin Berube on their squad, but Newscast has the dependable Andy Goergen and Zach Miller, who were perfect during the regular season.

In case you don't know how the playoffs work:

• Teams play in a best-of-five series
• The higher-seeded team will have "home field" for matches 1, 3, and 5 while the lower-seeded team will have "home field" for matches 2 and 4
• Home field is a stage and item set of the team's choosing. No custom stages or rules
• Each match is three stock
• Each team has three players, and each player must play at least once during the series

Now, let's see what our final match-up will be...

That second match in PGC vs. RFN... is that what justice feels like?

We had no idea what RFN had selected the prior week. Justice is blind.
