With Season 2 of the Royale Court Rankings being cut off pre-emptively, some of you may already have guessed that something major was coming up. (Or maybe you dont care because "TSF sux", either way). It is once more time for the main TSF event of the year...
Big Finish #2.0!After last years disaster, we have reworked the event to ensure that things are more organized this time around. Not only has the lineup changed drastically compared to the first Big Finish, but we also managed to pull some great TOs on board, such as:
- Doqtor Kirby
- DSwift
- KingPawn
- Corvid
- and more.
This year, we have decided to keep our focus on only two major events:
The SSF2 main event and a crew battle, held on Saturday, December 3rd and Sunday, December 4th respectively.Big Finish #2.0 SSF2 Singles: http://tsftournaments.challonge.com/BigFinish2

As for the SSF2 singles event, it is quite different from last years event. First of all, the tournament is now held on a single day as opposed to the two day system we used last time. We also reduced the player cap to a total of 16 entrees. The pools stage is reimplemented as well. As for the biggest change of them all...
Big Finish #2.0 is the official Season finale of the RCR Season 2. As such, the winner of Big Finish #2.0 will be awarded victor of Season 2.Additionally, players cannot signup this time. Instead, the Top 8 of the RCR is automatically invited to participate in the event, with the remaining 8 spots being voted by the community.To ensure that only high level players can be voted into Big Finish #2.0, we have installed a certain threshold players have to pass. In order to be added to the lineup of nominees, players have to apply to both of the following:
- The player is ranked at least Top 30 in the Season 2 RCR and
- The player has at least one registered Top 8 placements in the Season 2 RCR.
If you wish to know more about the nominees and want to get your vote in, make sure to check the official voting thread a look:
