I'm putting this at the top so people see this: Note: The stage strike UI is disabled while playing with workshop characters. Negotiate stage bans with your opponent through Steam or Discord DMs.

Note but the second: This bracket, unlike most workshop tournaments, is NA ONLY.

Saturday Night Fight is a weekly tournament run by StayPuft, 2004 Honda Civic 4-Door Sedan, Sepi, and Scribe each Saturday at 7:30 EST. This tournament is dedicated to showcasing Workshop characters that we feel are closest of the base cast's level of moveset cohesion, balance, and quality.

The first three or four iterations of SNF each month will serve as practice for SNF Finals, a monthly event with a prize pool. In the time between the monthly SNF Finals and the first weekly SNF of the following month, changes will be made to the character collection if deemed necessary. Roster changes will only be made outside that period if if an issue is found with a character that warrants a ban.

It's required to be a part of the Rivals Recess discord to be a part of this tournament, if you're not already in it, you can join here: https://discord.gg/mbw2uGG
