Smash Needs You was a European national tournament held by Kone during August 10th-12th, 2010 in Lickey, Birmingham.

Stagelist

• Starters: Battlefield, Final Destination, Dream Land, Yoshi's Story, Pokémon Stadium
• Counterpicks (singles only): Fountain of Dreams

For the first game of the set, stage striking was performed in P1-P2-P2-P1 order.

At the beginning of the set, each side could ban one stage for the whole set. It is unclear what would happen to the first game's striking procedure if one side chose to ban a starter stage while the other banned a counterpick stage.

Note that in doubles, there were effectively no counterpick-only stages with all stages being either starters or banned.
