Additional Info:
I've been doing these tournaments since the first wave of Smash brothers Amiibos came out and now I've decided to make it somewhat interesting for other people as well.
So I would like to Announce the Wave 5 Grand Amiibo Tournament Lottery!

- Send a tell to Isack Eron or PM me where this is posted with your pick for the winning Amiibo.
-- If you PM include the name of your FFXIV character so I can check against my Retainers sale history.
--- If you have an AH account as well please include it's name in when you choose your Amiibo so if you win you will get the badge as well.
That's it.

How to view:
Sadly I do not have a capture card for the Wii U and will not be streaming it. If this gets enough attention though I may purchase one for Wave 5 and beyond. I will be uploading the Championship Rounds for this so those who have a Wii U and Smash Brothers can watch the replay. In the latest patch they added the ability to upload match replays to YouTube but they cannot be longer then 3 minutes, due to this I will upload any matches that are less then 3 minutes to YouTube. Don't expect much to be posted to YouTube as the matches average around 5 minutes long.
Tournament Overview:
All Amiibos are Lv50(Max level) baseline models. No items or custom move sets.

F.A.Q:
Q: What's an Amiibo?
A: It's a small collectable figure with an NFC chip inside to allow it to work with certain games, in this case Smash Brothers.
(Not a picture of all Amiibos)
Q: Do I need any Amiibos for this?
A: Nope I've got all of them covered. I use my own collection of Amiibos for this tournament.
Q: Can I pick an Amiibo that has been picked by some one else?
A: Yes, in the event it wins the pot is split between the people who picked that Amiibo.
Q: Can I buy more then 1 ticket?
A: No, I want to keep the prize big for everyone while also retaining the feel of luck.
Q: Can I change my pick later?
A: No. Please have your mind made up before you choose which Amiibo you think will win.
Q: Will you be entering?
A: No I will not be making a pick. I enjoy watching the Amiibos fight and learn and that is enough for me. This contest is for other people to enjoy. I do however sponsor all of the beginning pot.
