European Online Challenge for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: Winter Clash Begins December 6th! | News

The “Super Smash Bros. Ultimate European Online Challenge: Winter Clash 2024” is set to be a thrilling online competition for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate fans on the Nintendo Switch. Organized by Nintendo of Europe, this event will be an opportunity for players across various European countries to showcase their skills.

### Event Timing and Eligibility

Mark your calendars because the event is happening on Friday, December 6th, from 18:00 to 20:00 CET (which is 17:00 to 19:00 UK time). Participants are welcome from a wide array of countries including Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Finland, France, Germany, and many others, up to the United Kingdom. Due to geographical considerations, players from distant regions like the Azores and Svalbard may face restrictions in participation to ensure a seamless gaming experience for everyone involved.

### How to Get Involved

To join the fun, you’ll need a Nintendo Account set to one of the participating countries, along with an active Nintendo Switch Online membership. It doesn’t matter if it’s a paid subscription or a free trial. Once you’re set up, dive into your Nintendo Switch, enter the game, and select “Online” followed by “Official Tourney Qualifiers” to get started in the event. Just make sure to partake in at least one event match to have your score counted.

### Scoring the Tournament

The goal is simple: aim for the highest Tourney Score you can manage. This exclusive rating reflects your performance based on match outcomes and the skill level of your opponents. So, the higher your opponents’ scores, the more you have to gain when you win. You can keep track of your progress at any point during the event.

The best part? You can play as many matches as you like during the event window, and any match that starts within the timeframe will count towards your score, even if it concludes after the event closes.

### Prizes for the Top Players

There’s a serious incentive to climb the leaderboard. The top 10 participants will each win 2,500 My Nintendo Gold Points, while those who rank from 11th to 100th will earn 1,000 points. However, make sure your account settings remain within the participating countries to avoid disqualification. Plus, any unfair play like cheating or exploiting game bugs will lead to disqualification and potential suspension of your Nintendo Account in line with Nintendo’s Code of Conduct.

### Receiving Your Rewards
