Just throwing this out there because I had an idea one evening.
Overview
- 10 initial participants
- Players are divided into at least two teams each episode
- Teams will first compete in a non-game section for an advantage in the game section
- Team then competes in UMvC3 using special rules
- Losing teams eliminates a team member by vote
- Teams will be rebalanced if one team has two more players than the other team
- Players are to be eliminated each episode until there are three players left
- The final 3 players will compete against each other individually
