Editing All-Star Mode

All-Star Mode made its debut in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', as an unlockable [[:Category:Single-player modes|1-player mode]] which puts the player up against every [[fighter]] in the game. It is automatically unlocked upon unlocking every fighter.

All-Star Mode has 13 stages. The number of opponents per stage increases as the player advances: one opponent per stage for Stages 1 to 4, two per stage for Stages 5 to 8, three per stage for Stages 9 to 12, and a [[Classic Mode#Team battle|team]] of 25 Mr. Game & Watch for Stage 13. Similarly to [[wikirby:The Arena#Kirby Super Star / Kirby Super Star Ultra|its inspiration]], the opponents are selected at random from the entire roster, excluding {{SSBM|Mr. Game & Watch}} (who is always fought last), so that each character is fought once. Each opponent (except Mr. Game & Watch) wears one of their first three [[alternate costume]]s, unless the player is wearing one of those three costumes, in which case that character can wear their default costume (but not the costume the player is wearing); Mr. Game & Watch will always wear his default costume, unless the player uses that costume, in which case they will wear the red costume.

All-Star Mode returns in ''Brawl'', and is mostly unchanged from ''Melee''. The player still gets a trio of Heart Containers, as well as random trophies (which, unlike in ''Melee'', do not appear as a question mark if the game is paused), and they fight through every fighter in the game. The player still only has 1 stock, and they do not regain health between matches without a Heart Container (although after using one, the player can now enter the teleporter without having to wait for their health to fully recover).

The order in which the opponents are fought is based on the Japanese release date of the first game in the fighter's/fighters' universe, with fighters from older series being fought first. As such, the player will always fight Mr. Game & Watch first and {{SSBB|Olimar}} last, with Olimar's difficulty ramped up. In effect, this means that stages for {{uv|Kid Icarus}}, {{uv|Ice Climber}} and {{uv|Pikmin}} will be easier than {{uv|Mario}}, {{uv|The Legend of Zelda}} and {{uv|Pokémon}}, due to the latter three universes having multiple opponents.

To defeat {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}}, the player must defeat {{SSBB|Squirtle}}, {{SSBB|Ivysaur}} and {{SSBB|Charizard}}; once one is defeated, the Trainer will send out the next one. For {{uv|The Legend of Zelda}} and {{uv|Metroid}}, the player will battle one of {{SSBB|Zelda}} or {{SSBB|Sheik}} and one of {{SSBB|Samus}} or {{SSBB|Zero Suit Samus}}, selected at random.

At the end of All-Star Mode, the player can unlock their fighter's Final Smash trophy. Completing the mode in co-op unlocks both characters' Final Smash trophies together. However, the high score (along with the Final Smash trophies unlocked in co-op) is tracked into a unique reserved slot, as opposed to a specific fighter.

Playing All-Star Mode with two players allows them to receive two [[Final Smash]] trophies at the same time. However, co-op play does not count towards the [[Challenges]] for All-Star Mode. The co-op high score and Final Smash trophies are not attached to either fighter. Instead, they both appear in its own reserved slot.

Unlike previous installments, All-Star Mode is playable from the start of the game. However, the mode is incomplete at first, as players cannot fight against fighters or on stages they have not yet unlocked. Once all unlockable fighters have been unlocked, it is referred to as the "True All-Star Mode," which is required for many of the rewards from the [[Challenges]] in {{forwiiu}}. Downloadable fighters and stages will also be added to the mode if the player obtains them, but their presence or absence will not affect any of the challenges, and if the player deletes the DLC data, they will be removed from the mode until they are re-downloaded.

The order in which different characters are fought is now based on a fighter's personal first appearance in Japan (all characters debuted first in Japan with the exception of [[Diddy Kong]], [[Sonic]], and [[Zero Suit Samus]], while [[Greninja]] debuted on the same day worldwide). In {{for3ds}}, the order of opponents starts with the oldest fighters (1980) and progresses to the newest ones (2013 or 2015, depending on whether {{SSB4|Corrin}} has been downloaded); in {{forwiiu}}, the order is reversed, with the newest fighters fought first and the oldest ones fought last. {{SSB4|Mii Fighter}}s are absent from this All-Star Mode.

The recovery items available in the rest area are one Special [[Heart Container]] (healing 999%), a [[Maxim Tomato]] (healing 50%), a [[Fairy Bottle]] (healing 100%, but only if the player's damage is 100% or greater), and, if all fighters are unlocked, a second Special Heart Container. In the Group version, two extra Special Heart Containers are added. If the player attempts to carry one of these items outside of the rest area (e.g. carrying the Fairy Bottle normally, or [[Pocket]]ing an item), it will be lost without healing the player. Unlike in previous games, no items spawn at all during battles. In addition, while in the rest area, the player's damage is fixed and cannot be altered in any way outside the provided healing items—self-damaging moves (such as [[Judge]]) and self-healing moves (such as [[Sun Salutation]]) will not have any effect on the player's damage. [[Chomp]] cannot boost the effectiveness of healing items in the rest area.

Rather than the knockback handicaps used in previous games, in ''SSB4'', damage multipliers are used to increase the damage dealt to opponents while reducing the damage taken by the player. The CPUs also have launch rates slightly below 1.0x, possibly to stop some moves from KOing them too early due to the damage multipliers. However, attacks from [[projectile]]s and other articles and props—such as Charizard's [[Flare Blitz]], Olimar's Pikmin, and Ness's yo-yo—are not affected by the player's damage boost or the opponents' damage reduction. In addition, stage hazards will deal full damage and knockback to players and enemies alike (such as falling onto the track in [[Mute City (3DS)|Mute City]]). As a result, prop-based attacks and stage hazards are by far the greatest threats to the player in this mode, since the opponents will otherwise be unable to reliably KO the player until approximately 200%. In this mode, opponents cannot be [[Star KO]]'d or [[Screen KO]]'d.

In Solo mode, when the player finishes All-Star Mode, the [[credits]] will roll and they will earn their fighter's "(Alt.)" trophy (in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'') or a [[Final Smash]] trophy (in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''). In ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', "(Alt.)" trophies are instead randomly obtained from the [[Trophy Shop]] after beating {{SSB4-Wii U|Classic Mode}} or All-Star Mode with that fighter. Completing the mode in co-op unlocks both characters' respective trophies.

The opponents appear from oldest to newest based on their first appearance within their home series in Japan. When all the fighters have been defeated, the cycle repeats, looping back to the oldest fighters. Opponents will use their default costume unless the player is using that fighter's default costume.

All-Star in ''Ultimate'' is similar to the final Co-Op [[event match]]es in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and {{forwiiu}} ([[Co-Op Event 21: The True All-Star Battle]] and [[The Ultimate Battle]], respectively) and fought in the same order as All-Star Mode from {{for3ds}}; only that [[Mario]] and [[Donkey Kong]] swap placements, [[Yoshi]] switches his placement with [[Captain Falcon]] and all {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation I}} [[List of Pokémon|Pokémon]] are fought in a different order.

[[File:KSS The Arena rest area.png|thumb|The Arena's Rest Area in ''Kirby Super Star''.]]

All-Star Mode in the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' games is inspired by The Arena subgame in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and its remake, and the Boss Endurance in other {{uv|Kirby}} games. Like The Arena and Boss Endurance, the selected fighter has to battle and defeat every other fighter in the game, similar to how [[Kirby]] has to defeat every boss in his games.

The main difference is that instead of [[Maxim Tomato]]es to refill a health bar, the player collects [[Heart Container]]s from {{uv|The Legend of Zelda}} series to empty their damage meter. The rest area in All-Star is also very similar in appearance to that in The Arena, and the music played in ''Melee''{{'}}s version is a remix of the song that plays in the save cottages in {{iw|wikirby|The Great Cave Offensive}} from ''Kirby Super Star''. Additionally, instead of a [[Warp Star]] used to teleport to the boss battle, the fighter goes into a vortex to compete in the battle.

*Due to All-Star Mode being available from the start in ''for Wii U'', it is the only game in which an unlockable character can normally be unlocked by completing All-Star Mode (that being {{SSB4|Dark Pit}}).

*The only stages that have never appeared in All-Star for any installment are [[Planet Zebes]], [[Sector Z]], [[Pictochat]], [[Pac-Maze]], [[Jungle Hijinxs]], and [[Miiverse]].

*[[Hero]] from {{uv|Dragon Quest}} was the only fighter who is placed in order based on their iteration rather than the character's debut. Prior to Version 8.0.0, his placement was based on the release date of ''{{s|wikipedia|Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age}}'' (July 28, 2017) rather than the release date of the original ''{{iw|wikipedia|Dragon Quest|video game}}'' (May 27, 1986). Starting from Version 8.0.0, his placement is now based on the release date of ''{{s|wikipedia|Dragon Quest III}}'' (February 10, 1988).

**Conversely, other fighters with an iteration different from their debut, such as [[Link]], are placed in order based on the character's debut.  If Hero were to be placed accordingly, he would appear between [[Zelda]] and [[Samus]].

**Although not by name, All-Star Smash was the only in-game occurrence where the Luminary's debut is counted as ''Dragon Quest XI'' rather than ''Dragon Quest XI S'' (September 27, 2019) prior to Version 8.0.0.

**This also makes Hero the only character to have their All-Star placement based on an [[alternate costume]] character's debut rather than the default (as [[Olimar]] and [[Bowser Jr.]] use their debuts for their placements rather than those of [[Alph]] and the [[Koopalings]]), as well as the only character to change his All-Star placement through an update.

*[[Yoshi]] and [[Captain Falcon]] are the only characters with the same release date, but different games, as both ''[[Super Mario World]]'' and ''[[F-Zero]]'' released on November 21, 1990 as {{s|wikipedia|launch title}}s for the {{s|wikipedia|Super Nintendo Entertainment System}}.
