Fight To The Finish Special Events

Fight To The Finish has had many new events added into Season 2. These different events occur during each individual tournament. The events vary with some happening in the background while the tournament occurs meanwhile other events require the player starting it. Participating in most events are optional; however, if you're willing you can earn bonus points on the tournament leader-board. We hope that these new events will keep players engaged in Fight To The Finish and add some tension. Events might get added or removed as time goes on, but for now Fight To The Finish will have three events.

Cody's Bounty Hunt

Each tournament will have an event known as Cody's Bounty Hunt. In this event, Cody will randomly select a number between one and the number of players in the tournament. After Cody picks a number and the bracket is finalized, a bounty is placed on the person with the corresponding seed. The person who has a bounty must make it to:

-Top 4 (for 16 players or less)
-Top 8 (16 players or more)  

If the player makes it to the specified round they have survived the bounty and will be awarded points on the leader-board. Although, a person’s opponent in the bracket could defeat the person with the bounty taking the points instead (this applies to both opponents in the Winners & Losers bracket) [For more information about point bonuses please refer to the tournament leader-board thread].

Grudge Match Fridays

Originating from Allisbrawl / Nintendodojo, Grudge Match Fridays are returning in Fight To The Finish. In this feature, players already knocked out of the tournament can compete against each other for redemption. A Grudge Match works similar to a friendly using tournament rules. If two players want to compete in a Grudge Match they either inform the tournament organizer or streamer that they're playing a grudge match. Next they play a Best of 5 series (it can be Best of 3 if both players agree on it) using tournament rules.

After the set is done players report results back to the person they informed about the Grudge Match. The winner of the Grudge Match earns bonus points on the tournament leader-board. A player can earn bonus points on the tournament leader-board for their first two Grudge Match victories only, but can play more than two if they desire.

Believe's Highlight Reel

After each tournament, players can earn bonus by sending clips to Believe. Each tournament Believe will watch all the highlights and pick whichever moment he thought was the best. These replays can either be actual tournament matches or grudge matches held at the actual tournament. Replays could either be submitted to Believe by:

-Adding his NNID and sending him the replays (Believe’s NNID: believemiracles)
-Uploading the clip to Youtube and linking it to Believe via a private message on Discord (Believe#5765).
-As of Fight To The Finish #18 onwards, you may only submit 2 REPLAYS AT MOST so make sure to pick your best ones.

Whichever clip Believe finds the best will be the tournament highlight and the person that submitted the replay will earn bonus points on the tournament leaderboard. The deadline for submitting a clip is the following Saturday at 11:59 PM PST. Believe will review the clips and make a decision by approximately Tuesday at 11:59 PM PST the latest. While the selected replay solely depends on Believe’s opinion some factors that could get used as judging criteria is:

-If the match has a cool combo, kill, or moment in it.
-If the match is intense and is extremely close.
-If the match is funny or has a funny moment in it.
-If a player in the match pulls off an amazing comeback in it.
-If the match is surprising and the unexpected occurs.

After Believe makes his decision he will post a link to the winning clip in the Challonge discussion page for the next tournament (if it's uploaded to Youtube) and explain why it won, he might also create a ranking of the submitted clips.
