GENERAL RULES

  • 150cc speed setting

  • Lobby hosts must have a stable internet connection

  • Normal Items

  • All vehicles, gliders, and characters allowed

  • Smart steering is allowed

  • Lobby hosts are responsible for sending scores to tournament operator (a screenshot is fine; include CPU points if needed)
