SASUKE Vietnam: All-Stars Competition 2019, also known as SASUKE Vietnam: Vietnam vs. The World 4, was the fourth installment of SASUKE Vietnam's international competition. The competition premiered right after the conclusion of SASUKE Vietnam's 5th Anniversary Gala. However, unlike the first three international tournaments of SASUKE Vietnam, this tournament is a event of SASUKE Vietnam's 5th Anniversary.
There were 4 teams competing in the tournament, similar to the SASUKE Vietnam: International Competition 2018, with 2 teams from Vietnam (Team Jungle and Team Fire) and 2 international teams (Team Sky and Team Sun). The number of competitors from each team was increased from 3 to 4. This competition (along with SASUKE Vietnam: International Competition 2018) holds the record for the most teams representing a single nation in an international tournament with two, until the announcement of the SASUKE World Cup 1 with three.
Compared to SASUKE Vietnam: International Competition 2018, there were some major changes for the competition format. In Stage One, the stage worked in almost a similar fashion during SASUKE Ninja Warrior Indonesia: International Competition's Speed Challenge, with the exception of using the fastest time instead of points, unlike several international/regional special competitions in most international SASUKE/Ninja Warrior formats. In Stage Three, the stage has the same format that used in the previous international competition, except three competitors from each teams would compete on a relay race, and the other would attempt Stage Four.
There is no time limit across all stages. However, during the broadcast, host Thành Trung announcement the Stage Four have 30 seconds time limit. It's not sure that this applied to SASUKE Vietnam 5 only or also in this international competition, but nevertheless, all two competitors were cleared the Stage Four with under 30 seconds.
Stage One
There were 4 heats in the stage. Only Stage 1A is used. Each heat consisted of 4 competitors (1 competitor from each team).
After all competitors finished their runs, the team had the fewest competitors to finish the stage would be eliminated from the competition. If there was more than 1 team had the fewest competitors to finish the stage, then the time of the finished competitors would be accumulated, the team(s) had the fastest time would advance to Stage Three.
The clear time would be accumulated and the team who has the slowest time would be eliminated,
Stage Three
The stage worked in a relay fashion (similar to Team Ninja Warrior's Relay Showdown round), with each member of the four teams would tackle a few obstacles.
When one competitor of a team failed an obstacle, the next competitor would return to the starting line or the previous obstacle from the competitor cleared beforehand.
Two teams who completed the course (or made the furthest) in the fastest time would advance to the Stage Four.
Stage Four
This stage consisted of Spider Climb and Rope Climb, with 2 competitors (1 competitor from each team).
The competitor who reached the top of the tower in the fastest time, his respective team would be the champion of the tournament.
