Upon entering a Battle Arena, all players are placed in the upper-right corner of the screen, where they can stay if they are not ready to go to another area. | Upon entering a Battle Arena, all players are placed in the upper-right corner of the screen, where they can stay if they are not ready to go to another area. players will be represented by tokens displaying the character the player has chosen for their [[Smash Tag|Smash tag]]. The tokens can be moved by the player to place them into other areas of interest. The top of the screen, from left to right, is the button to leave the arena, a prompt that displays the arena rules that the host can modify, information about the host, an icon that shows the arena type, the name of the arena, the background music that can be changed, and the player list that the host can use to kick players. The arena ID is also located in the upper-right corner. The box on the lower-left corner is a chat and message box that displays important information like match statistics and rule changes, which is also shown with a yellow banner that briefly appears at the top of the screen. As of update version 6.0.0, players can press the [[L button]] to expand the box and press the [[R button]] to send pre-written message to the box for others to see. The lower-right corner of the screen shows a player's personal statistics like name, icon, amount of victories, and preferred stage and character that the player can change, but doing so would kick them back to the waiting area. | ||
The center of the arena is The Ring, which any player can join if there is room. If there is no room, players will form a line on the catwalk to the right side. Matches are started when any of the players in the ring presses start. All players in the ring will then have 15 seconds to press the join button to ready-up, or holding the special button to back-out. Any players that back-out or do not ready-up in the 15 seconds will be put in the back of the line, allowing other players into the ring. Once every player has readied-up, the match will start. Once the match ends, the message box will update with relevant information like player placements and player(s) designated by the selected rotation system will be kicked to the back of the line and awaiting players will be allowed into the ring. | The center of the arena is The Ring, which any player can join if there is room.
