Centered on the iconic Nintendo Switch title Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the “Super Smash Bros. Ultimate European Online Challenge: Winter Clash 2024” promises a thrilling online competition. Hosted by Nintendo of Europe SE in Frankfurt, Germany, this event is set to bring together players from across the continent.
Event Period and Locations
Mark your calendars for Friday, December 6th, when the action kicks off from 18:00 to 20:00 CET (or 17:00 to 19:00 UK time). Gamers from various European countries—ranging from Austria to the United Kingdom—are invited to partake in the excitement. However, due to geographical considerations, participants from distant locations like the Azores and Svalbard may face restrictions.
Getting Involved
Participating is simple. Just ensure your Nintendo Account is set to one of the eligible countries and that it’s tied to an active Nintendo Switch Online membership. Whether you’re on a paid plan or still trying out the service, you’re good to go. Dive into the Game through the Nintendo Switch and finish at least one event tourney match. You’ll find the tourney by heading to the game’s main menu, selecting “Online,” and then “Official Tourney Qualifiers.”
Scoring System
Your Tourney score is unique to these events, offering a glimpse into your skills based on match performances and the scores of your adversaries. Keep an eye on your progress within the Game as you play. Throughout the competition, you can engage in as many matches as you wish to boost your score. Even if a match concludes after the event’s official end, it will still affect your Tourney score if it began in time.
Prizes for Top Players
The stakes are high, with the top 10 players each receiving 2,500 My Nintendo Gold Points. Meanwhile, those ranking from 11th to 100th place will not leave empty-handed—they’ll each earn 1,000 My Nintendo Gold Points. Keep your account details consistent; changing your country setting to a non-eligible location will result in disqualification. Maintaining fair play is crucial—cheaters or those exploiting the system in any way, as mentioned in Nintendo’s Code of Conduct, may find themselves disqualified or worse, with their accounts suspended.
Prize Delivery
Expect your winnings to be credited to your Nintendo Account within two weeks following the event. You can easily verify your gold points by checking the My Nintendo Point Log.
