Character Picking
If the players do not discuss the method of character selection, it should be understood that the Standard method is being used. If the players cannot come to an agreement on the method of character selection, the judge will apply the double blind method.

Once either player chooses a character, neither is allowed to request that the Double Blind Selection method be used.

Double Blind Method
Double Blind Selection

* Either player must explicitly ask for the Double Blind Selection method before either player chooses a character.
* When a player request Double Blind, the player on the left side (1p) decides which character they will choose and whispers his selection to the Judge.
* The Judge then signals the player on the right (2p) to pick his characters and play modes.
* Once the player on the right (2p) has finished, the Judge makes sure the player on the left (1p) sticks to his original choices.


Loser can change character
The loser of a game can change character; the winner must keep the same character.
