The Scrapstar Series is an online biweekly ARMS tournament series organized and streamed by Mileve. The series started in February 2019 and is still running events today. It is one of the few currently running biweekly events to still be consistently streamed as well. Each of the tournaments count toward the Power Ranking of their respective regions.
Initially, the Scrapstar Series ran weekly double elimination brackets for North American and European players. Over time, this changed so that the series ran biweekly with both brackets still being the same day. For a short time there were also events held for players in South and Central America as well, but these were shortly lived.
Up until the 31st event, Scrapstar brackets were ran on Challonge which required players to utilize Mileve's Discord server to communicate with their opponents as Challonge lacks player-to-player chat functions. For the 31st event onward, Battlefy was used for the brackets instead. Battlefy does have player-to-player chat functions if players desire to use it, but players also have the option to still use Discord communications if it works better for them. This change occurred because the tournament's organizer, Mileve, was offered benefits and advertising by Battlefy which Challonge did not provide.
Scrapstar Series events typically run tournaments with the "Backroom" stage list, but on occasion other stages have been thrown into the mix. These other stages include [NAME REDACTED], Sky Arena, and Ramen Bowl.
With 18 wins, AstroNinja0 has the most Scrapstar Series wins out of all 19 unique North American victors.
This accolade goes to Ripha, with 30 wins, for the European events and GameMasterTom, with 4 wins, for the South American events.
