2 rounds of 2v2 each is way better than 1 round of 4v4, 3v3 is pretty unbalanced as well but at least it's better than 4v4.
if it were up to me, the tournament would have a best of 3 2v2 in the first round, best of 3 2v2 and best of 3 1v1 in the second round, best of 5 2v2 and best of 3 1v1 in the third round, and best of 5 2v2 and best of 5 1v1 in the final round (assuming there are 4 rounds, each round has 3 stock and 100% damage, pretty easy to exploit other damage modifiers. also assuming that anyone from the team can compete at any given time so long as each teammate plays in each round meaning that the team that wins the first match of the first round will have to have the other two teammates play the next doubles match).
also, i'm fine with how the tournament is currently, i just think it could be a lot better and giving some insight to how it could be ran in terms of making it more fair for everyone and justifying skill > luck based on modifiers and 4v4.
edit: sorry for not saying this earlier: beattle and any variant (skeleton, skele, skele belly, idiot bitch, steven beattie, steven beattle, skeleton hero steven beattie, etc.) are just nicknames for phail. our sub beattle = phail, so feel free to remove him from the list of available players and just add him as our sub. thanks.
in-case you didn't see this liar, you can ignore the first part if you really want but the edit is important.
