The process works by starting out with the full list of legal starter stages in the first set of a match; stages classified as counterpicks are not yet eligible. One player eliminates a stage that they feel would be beneficial to the opponent's character if played on; for example, fighting Lloyd on Nintendo 3DS would be a tremendous risk, so it would be wise to strike that against a known Lloyd user. The choice then goes back to the original player who strikes one of the two remaining stages, the last one remaining being the stage that the set is ultimately played on.

  • The process works by starting out with the full list of legal starter stages in the first set of a match; stages classified as counterpicks are not yet eligible. One player eliminates a stage that they feel would be beneficial to the opponent's character if played on; for example, fighting Lloyd on Nintendo 3DS would be a tremendous risk, so it would be wise to strike that against a known Lloyd user. Afterwards, the second player strikes two stages at once, to compensate for not getting the first choice. For larger stage lists, this may go on for longer, alternating between players at two strikes per turn, but it's not needed under current conditions. The choice then goes back to the original player who strikes one of the two remaining stages, the last one remaining being the stage that the set is ultimately played on. The process can be skipped entirely with the Gentleman's Clause, in which all players agree on a stage beforehand. When used, it is typically to expedite the match, as the striking process can be time-consuming.
