But the punishment for a misinput was pretty awkward to implement, and with empty chase being safe, not doing a chase 50/50 was usually favorable for risk/reward, so it became less frequent and a ban became unnecessary.

	Counterattack + Disable Counterattack is a staple synergy due to it's consistency and overall strength.

 The following rules are a template and can be deviated from at the tournament organiser's discretion. For example, in some 2022 tournaments, assist depletion was banned or group battle jobs were allowed.

 * In-game rules set to "Official"
 * Dave's Stupid Rule
 A player cannot pick a stage they have won on during the set in question. Therefore, the losing player would be free to pick the same stage they lost on for the second game, having previously lost on such a stage. Should that player win that time, however, they can no longer pick the stage for future matches in the set.

 If a player continues chase after a chase BRV, it must be an empty chase, meaning the player does not perform any additional chase attacks.
 === Notes ===
 The in-game ruleset "Official" disables calendar bonuses, artifacts, breakable accessories and a select few booster accessories. This inherently levels much of the playing field in customisation.
 The available list of stages can vary depending on tournament organiser(s). It's common to have a smaller selection of stages.
 All Breakable Accessories are banned by the official ruleset. Sometimes Chocobo Items+Great Ribbon is allowed, but it's on a case by case basis.
 The Equip-less multipliers and Level Gap are banned by the official ruleset in-game, the equip-less multipliers are usually allowed in any non-official format or casuals.
