The “Super Smash Bros. Ultimate European Online Challenge: Winter Clash 2024” is gearing up to be an exciting online competition for gamers across Europe. Held entirely in the Nintendo Switch’s popular fighting game, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, this event is put together by Nintendo of Europe SE, based in Frankfurt, Germany.
### Event Details
Mark your calendars for Friday, December 6th, when the action kicks off from 18:00 to 20:00 CET. If you’re in the UK, the times are 17:00 to 19:00. Gamers from Austria, Belgium, and a host of other European countries are all invited to join in on the fun. However, those located way out in areas like the Azores and Svalbard might find themselves sitting this one out due to geographical restrictions affecting gameplay.
### How to Join
Signing up is a breeze, but you will need a Nintendo Account set to one of the eligible countries, along with an active Nintendo Switch Online membership—paid or trial, it doesn’t matter. Once you’re all set up, launch the game, navigate to “Online” from the main menu, and look for “Official Tourney Qualifiers” to dive into the competition.
### Scoring in the Tournament
Tourney scores add a fun, competitive edge to the event. Every match impacts your overall score, which reflects your skills against others in the tournament. Aim high and keep an eye on your evolving Tourney score during the event. You have unlimited attempts, so play as many matches as you want to climb that leaderboard.
### Prizes for the Top Performers
The stakes are high with My Nintendo Gold Points up for grabs! The top 10 players will each receive a hefty 2,500 points, while those ranking 11th to 100th will pocket 1,000 points each. A head’s up: make sure to keep your account’s country setting unchanged to avoid disqualification.
Cheaters and rule-breakers, beware. Nintendo takes fairness seriously, and violations like exploiting bugs or other unfair practices could get your account suspended.
### Prize Distribution
Expect the Gold Points to land in your Nintendo Account within two weeks after the event wraps up. You’ll be able to verify the points’ arrival by checking in at the My Nintendo Point Log.
### Important Policies
Before you jump into the fray, remember that the Nintendo Account Agreement and Privacy Policy are in effect, along with the My Nintendo Rewards Programme terms.
So, good luck to all participants! Let’s make this a battle to remember.
