Hey everyone! Inspired by SmashCPU's tournaments on Twitch, I decided to start making CPU tournaments for fun, albeit CPUs just fighting with characters rather than CPUs being assigned to different players.

Make predictions and view the bracket for Turbo Heavy 2: http://challonge.com/ssf2cputh2

3 Stocks, 6 minutes

No items, hazards off

Legal stages: Battlefield, Final Destination, Tower of Salvation, Smashville, Dreamland, Yoshi's Story, Pokemon Stadium 3, Nintendo 3DS, Castle Siege, Warioware Inc., Chaos Shrine, Lunar Core, Dracula's Castle, Saturn Valley (Stages are picked randomly)

Round 1 Results so far:
Megaman vs. Tails

Sorry about this taking so long and not doing commentary anymore. Being busy with college and stuff.
Here are the results!
1st: Bomberman
2nd: Kirby
3rd: Peach
4th: Jigglypuff
5th: Black Mage, Tails
7th: Fox, Pikachu
9th: Link, Ness, Megaman, Donkey Kong
13th: Goku, Captain Falcon, Lloyd, Sheik
17th: Marth, Sonic, Chibi Robo, Wario, Naruto, Zelda, Ichigo, Yoshi
25th: Mario, Meta Knight, Sora, Samus, Zero Suit Samus
Stuff to note:
[*]Seeds were based off of the results from the 1st tournament and while be based off of the averages of tournament placings in the future
[*]DK is a fraud
[*]Tails had an amazing Loser's bracket run
[*]Kirby is a scary beast and also had an amazing run through his short time in losers, having to defeat the 1, 2 and 3 seeds in a row
[*]Jiggs, Black Mage, Peach and Bomberman continue to be really strong threats

On replays: I haven't been uploading the replays on YouTube from the first tournament and probably won't get to them because of school and stuff. I'll see if I can upload the .ssfrec files as a substitute.

I also did a couple doubles CPU tournaments, one with items and one without. Both were really fun to watch, perhaps even moreso than singles. Peach, Black Mage and Wario seem really strong in this format.

You were so close. Too bad that Bomberman and Kirby are savages.

A correct guess! Bravo

I had 3 CPU Tours while back. They were set up like the World Cup with a groups stage, then a knockout round.

It was actually pretty hype XD

That sounds fun. I'm doing something similar with my SSB3DS one (though it's taking awhile because of the roster size).

I just started a third tournament for SSF2 singles btw.: http://challonge.com/jagssf2cpu3

Will run pretty much the same way as last time except without the live commentary since that's too much commitment for me atm. It should go a lot more smoothly this way. I would like to get some bracket predictions on Challonge, but seeing that I didn't get any from these forums last time, I don't expect any.

I've attached replays of the Top 8 in a .zip file for tournament 2 since uploading to Youtube will take too long. For tournament 3, I think I will save replays of all the matches and organize them into different folders within the compressed folder.

Gonna start the tournament now. Will upload the Round 1 matches here once R1 is complete.

EDIT: Round 1 is complete! The matches for this round are attached to this post in a zip file. As far as predictions go, YoshiBlaze is winning by one point so far over me.

Yoshi vs Ness, Falcon vs Meta Knight and Kirby vs Ichigo were all pretty fun sets to watch.

Next will be Losers R1:

Okay, Winners Bracket Round 2 will start. Ichigo vs. Zelda was definitely the most intense set so far, give that a watch if you're going to watch the replays. Losers Round 1 Replays are attached to this post.

Well, my whole prediction is messed up XD

R.I.P. Meta Knight "You have much yet to learn"

We're actually dead even right now lol. I thought Sheik was going to place high, but she was just not playing well against Fox. Meta Knight would be a certain high tier for CPUs if he didn't SD with Shuttle Loop so much. :/

EDIT:
WR2 complete! Peach vs Marth and Kirby vs Tails were insanely close sets (and surely saved both mine and YoshiBlaze's brackets lol). Jigglypuff vs DK and Ness vs Falcon also have some really nice highlights. My bracket is now winning by one point over YoshiBlaze's.

Losers Round 2 and Winners Quarters are up next.

Well this took longer than it should have. Sorry to anyone folllowing.

Losers Round 2 and Winners Quarters are now complete! Peach vs. Kirby was fittingly close, but Kirby came through, meaning that YoshiBlaze has a chance of predicting the winner of Winner's Bracket correctly and I don't. Black Mage's performance vs. Link was insane, especially in game 2. Give that set a watch for sure. Replays for both LR2 and Winners Quarters are attached.

Losers Round 3 and Winners Semis are up next.
