==Ruleset==
The following rules were in effect:<ref>http://e3.nintendo.com/tournament/info/</ref>
*Before the tournament began, all competitors chose characters in random order. Characters could not be chosen by multiple players, and players could not switch characters midway through the tournament.
*Each match was a four player free-for-all, with all players having four [[stock]]s, as well as a five minute [[time]]r. The top two players in terms of score advanced. A tie between two players was decided by which player scored more [[KO]]s; if this was insufficient, the tie would then be broken by fan vote.
*The finals took place on {{SSB4|Battlefield}}, with both players having four stocks and the time at 8 minutes, as an explicit homage to the competitive Smash community.
*[[Item]]s were on medium for round 1, low for rounds 2 and 3, and off for the final.
