Competitive:Supernova II

Supernova II is an upcoming Splatoon online tournament scheduled to be held on May 21st, 2016. Alongside three other tournaments, Supernova II will function as a qualifier for the Splatoon Anniversary Invitational.

Standings
The standings for the event are as follows:

Rules
The tournament will feature a set of rules similar to its previous iteration.

Group Stage
Competing teams will be placed into four-to-eight groups, and will compete against each other in a round-robin style.
 * Seeding will be done manually by the TOs (Tournament Organizers), with emphasis on separating the top teams into different groups.

This stage will last either 3 or 5 rounds. Each round will last a maximum of 30 minutes (35 for the first round). For each match, both teams will play a Best-of-3 set of games against each other; the first team to win 2 games will win the set.
 * In the case of this stage being only 3 rounds, all three games must be played, regardless of how many games a team has won during that match (his is so that game differentials can be used more effectively to rank teams with the same win-loss ratings).

The top 2 teams from each group will move on to the next stage

Final Stage
Winning teams from the previous stage will be seeded into a single-elimination bracket.
 * For the first round of the bracket, teams who placed first in their group will face off against team who placed second in their group.
 * No two teams who were from the same group in the Group Stage will be paired off against each other, nor will they be located on the same side of the bracket.

Each round will last a maximum of 40 minutes (50 for the Grand Finals).

All matches in this stage will be a Best-of-5 sets, with the exception of the Grand Finals, which will be a Best-of-7 set.
