General informative thread dedicated to Sprite Club's various custom modes. Will be periodically updated as modes are changed or implemented.
Updraft
Starts at roughly 1800 rating and scales up dynamically over the course of 20 matches. Theoretically, during the last two matches, characters at the very top of the rating pool (lit. 2200-rated and above) will be picked.
Downdraft
Starts at roughly 1400 rating and scales down dynamically over the course of 20 matches, much like Updraft. Theoretically, during the last two matches, characters at the very bottom of the rating pool (lit. 1000-rated and below) will be picked.
Middraft
Generates matches within the 1400-1700 rating range at random, unlike Updraft or Downdraft.
King of the Hill
Picks a certain type of match (1v1, 2v2, or turns) and a division. The winning side continues until they lose or face a promotion boss in the case of 1v1 KotH. Crashes, timeouts, or skips will result in the fighters being rerolled, though this does not affect win streaks. Eligible divisions range from F to 1st, though it's not possible to promote from 1st, so the winner will advance until they lose or otherwise.
Lord of the Valley
Picks a certain type of match (1v1, 2v2, or turns) and a division. The losing side continues until they win or face a demotion boss in the case of 1v1 LotV. Crashes, timeouts, or skips will result in the fighters being rerolled, though this does not affect loss streaks. Eligible divisions range from 1st to 5th.
Whiplash
Switches between the highest and lowest divisions over the course of 20 matches. More information on this mode can be found here.
Turnaround
20 consecutive matches of nonstop turns matchmaking action! Can range from any division or any rating.
Double Trouble
20 consecutive matches of nonstop 2v2 matchmaking action! Can range from any division or any rating.
Boss Rush
20 Boss (promotion / demotion chance) fights in a row. Can choose from any matchmaking-allowed div, including F promotion / demotion.
Free for All
15 consecutive matches of nonstop chaos! Any character from any division on any palette can be picked - yes, this includes divisions like Untiered, Joke, and Duplicate! This can roll any form of matchmaking (1v1, 2v2, 2v1, or turns) as well. More information on this mode can be found here.
The Great Escape
Generates a 16-man Single Elimination 1v1 F Division bracket. Both finalists will escape F Division; tournament winner with a (0) streak, second place with a (-5) streak. Has since been made obsolete in favor of King of the Hill F, though is sometimes manually set by moderators for fun.
