Flash Royale

Flash Royale is an ongoing online tournament series. The series is hosted by the crew Team Star Flash (TSF Tournaments), and was started by CSWooly and Skailler. The series currently consists of multiple tournament miniseries, including Turbo Royale, HYPE! Royale, which was formerly the HYPE! Teams Tournament series, and the namesake series, Flash Royale.

HYPE! Teams Tournament Series
The HYPE! Teams Tournament Series was originally conceived by Skailler alongside his TO and teams partner TheCodeSamurai as a teams tournament series, complete with it's own ranking system. The first HYPE! tournament was a moderate success, where 5 teams participated in total, with the next one being more successful with 6 teams. However, due to the lack of success of the later tournaments, with HYPE! 5 only having two participating teams, the series was cancelled,

Flash Royale
Flash Royale was started by CSWooly due to a lack of his own participation in tournaments and the fact that he wanted to try his hand at being a Tournament organizer. The original tournament didn't garner very many participants due to awkward timing of the tournaments, with the tournament only having 5 participants due to issues with competing.

The series as a whole was conceived by Skailler, who suggested the idea of Turbo Royale as a tournament specifically focused for Turbo Mode, as well as reviving the HYPE! Teams Tournament series as HYPE! Royale. The tournaments are usually hosted almost every Sunday, save for one Sunday each month, and generally have decent attendance.

Some time after this, Smash Flashathon became a TSF group tournament series, being partnered with the Flash Royale series.

Big Finish
On 25th December 2015, CSWooly announced that he, alongside the TOs of Thunder Edge and others, would be hosting a large multi-game event called Big Finish I on January 15th 2016, incorporating the two-stage tournament system as opposed to the standard single-stage double elimination format that most SSF2 tournaments use. It has been specifically stated that the style of tournament was designed in a manner similar to the Hypest Tournaments end-of-season playoffs.

During this announcement, he revealed that until June 2016, he would no longer TO for the Flash Royale series, due to outside commitments.
