The '''Home-Run Contest''' ({{ja|ホームランコンテスト|Hōmurankontesuto}}, ''Home-Run Contest'') is a [[Stadium]] minigame introduced in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and returning in all games since then, although it was initially absent from ''Ultimate'' until the [[List of updates (SSBU)#5.0.0|5.0.0 update]]. The player(s) must knock a [[Sandbag]] as far as possible, usually with the [[Home-Run Bat]] given. The player has ten seconds to rack up [[damage]] to lengthen the home-run. The most effective technique for dealing high damage very quickly is known as [[bat dropping]].

The minigame takes place in the [[Home-Run Stadium]], a unique [[stage]] otherwise inaccessible in other game modes without [[hacking]].

[[File:SmashBrosUltimateHomeRunContest.jpg|thumb|{{SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}} preparing to send Sandbag flying with two seconds left in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.]]
[[File:Home-Run Contest (Super Smash Bros. for Wii U).jpg|thumb|{{SSB4|Zero Suit Samus}} is ready to send Sandbag flying in {{forwiiu}}.]]
The player starts on a platform with a Sandbag in the center, and the character about 1/3 of the way from the left of the platform facing right. On the left edge is a [[Home-Run Bat]], which can be used to hit the bag extremely far. Hitting with the very end of the bat, known as a "[[tipper]]", makes Sandbag go farther than hitting with the middle of the bat, which goes farther than a close hit. Every game has a ten-second time limit. During that time, the player is expected to deal as much damage to the Sandbag as possible. After five seconds, a countdown will occur just like in a [[Match timer#Final countdown timer|standard timed match with only five seconds remaining]] before the player hits the bag with the bat or an attack. When the Sandbag lands on the field after being launched, that will be the player's total distance for the game. If the player chooses not to launch the Sandbag, or the Sandbag is launched to the wrong side, the game automatically ends and a distance of zero is recorded.

Hitting with the very end of the bat, known as a "[[tipper]]", makes Sandbag go farther than hitting with the middle of the bat, which goes farther than a close hit. Halfway through the game, the [[announcer]] will start the countdown just like In a [[Match timer#Final countdown timer|standard timed match with only five seconds remaining]] before the player hits the bag with the bat or an attack. When the Sandbag lands on the field, that will be the player's total distance for the game.


In ''Melee'', it is also possible for some characters to hit the Sandbag with the handle of the bat, causing what is known as a no-[[ping]] hit, which sends the Sandbag at a much sharper angle. A no-ping hit only does 8% damage rather than 20%, but the change in angle causes the Sandbag to fly much farther when its damage is relatively low (lower than about 120%). For example, using a no-ping hit when Sandbag is only at 35% damage sends the Sandbag over 1000 feet (304.8 meters). {{SSBM|Pichu}}, {{SSBM|Pikachu}}, and {{SSBM|Mr. Game & Watch}} can take advantage of their unique swing animations to perform a no-ping hit simply by walking next to the bag, facing away, and swinging. Most other characters require the bag to be in the air to perform a no-ping hit. The [[character]]s that cannot do a no-ping hit or it does not go farther than their normal Home-Run swing at any percent are {{SSBM|Dr. Mario}}, {{SSBM|Mario}}, {{SSBM|Luigi}}, {{SSBM|Donkey Kong}}, {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}}, and {{SSBM|Ganondorf}}. While the technique is possible in ''Brawl'' onwards, it is unconfirmed whether they have similar uses as in ''Melee''; the fact that most characters' Home-Run swings have been standardized to a single unique animation may be relevant.

*There is a shield around the platform which prevents Sandbag from being knocked out without sufficient force. The shield is breakable after being struck enough times (usually up to five times) or with sufficient force, but it greatly lowers the difficulty of bringing Sandbag's damage up. The shield automatically disappears when time is up.

[[File:HRC threshold.png|thumb|300px|A graph demonstrating 2 major knockback thresholds in Home-Run Contest]]
*In single player mode, the Sandbag now appears to stay in place until hit with an attack which deals above a certain threshold of knockback.
*As with [[Multi-Man Smash|Mob Smash]], Home-Run Contest is no longer a Stadium mode, instead located directly in the Games & More menu along with Mob Smash, {{SSBU|Classic Mode}}, [[Training mode]], [[Stage Builder]], and others.
*When the Sandbag is launched, a dynamic camera effect similar to those used in certain [[Final Smash]]es occurs.
*The setting has been changed to a runway in the middle of a lake. The background stadium is replaced with a lavish ''Smash'' themed fortress. The lake eventually turns into a series of waterfalls that lead into a canyon, where the runway turns into an isolated bridge to keep a level surface.
*While flying, the camera now follows the sandbag rather than letting it disappear off the top of the screen
*The Sandbag has infinite [[knockback resistance]] when the first hit connects.
*Distance is now measured in kilometers in all regions, rather than feet in the American version and meters in the Japanese and European versions of the game.
*The Sandbag's launch physics now change when certain horizontal launch speed thresholds are exceeded, becoming easier to launch further.
*The bat only appears after six seconds have passed, removing opportunities for bat drops.
**Oddly, the final threshold appears to cap the launch speed of the Sandbag, meaning that moves with higher launch angles have higher absolute limits.
*Major sources of [[randomness]] are removed, in addition to all the ones in ''Smash 4'' returning:
*When the Sandbag is launched, a dynamic camera effect similar to those used in certain [[Final Smash]]es occurs. Particularly strong swings are shown from a different angle, behind the player character. (The angled camera effect does not occur if Sandbag is launched while to the right of the stadium, however.)
*The Sandbag has a much higher top falling speed when launched.
*While flying, the camera now attempts to follow Sandbag rather than letting it disappear off the top of the screen; however, if Sandbag is launched hard enough, it will still be launched above where the camera is allowed to follow. As Sandbag flies, it may be launched out of the atmosphere into a starlit night sky in outer space, and launching Sandbag particularly hard will show it flying in front of the moon, before eventually plummeting below the cloud layer again. [[Rosalina]]'s {{s|mariowiki|Comet Observatory}} is visible in the background if Sandbag is launched this high.
*While Sandbag is in flight, the player can toggle fast-forward on and off by pressing and holding the B button.
*Distance is now measured in kilometers regardless of language or regional settings, rather than feet in American English and meters in all other languages of previous games.
**Distance markers have been changed from signposts to drones.
*The bat only appears after six seconds have passed, removing opportunities for early bat drop combos. It is still possible to do bat drop combos, but it only allows for a maximum of 25-45 drops before disallowing anymore (as the time runs out).
*Major sources of [[randomness]] are removed:
**All randomness-related changes from ''Smash 4'' return.
**Like Peach, Daisy can only pluck the dot-eyes [[Vegetable]].
**Like Peach, Daisy can only pluck the dot-eyes [[Vegetable]].
**Joker's [[Rebellion Gauge]] is always full and Arsene is always active.
**Hero's [[Command Selection]] will always show Sizzle, Kaboom, Flame Slash, and Hatchet Man in that order.
**Hero's [[Command Selection]] will always show Sizzle, Kaboom, Flame Slash, and Hatchet Man in that order.
**Hero's smash attacks can never have a critical hit.
**Hero's smash attacks can never critical hit.
*Some characters' moves work differently against the Sandbag:
*Unlike the regular Sandbag, this one can't be grabbed.
**Unlike the regular Sandbag, this one cannot be grabbed.
**Sandbag is completely immune to [[windbox]]es from certain moves such as [[Inhale]], [[Blunderbuss]], [[F.L.U.D.D.]], and {{SSBU|Palutena}}'s forward smash.
**Ridley's [[Skewer]] cannot connect with its 50% sweetspot.
**Joker's [[Rebellion Gauge]] immediately starts out full and never drains, causing Arséne to always be active.
**Min Min immediately starts out with her left ARM always in powered-up state.
**Steve lacks a crafting table, but starts out with a full set of diamond equipment.
*In addition to the new "happy" expression added to the Sandbag in ''Ultimate'', during Home-Run Contest only, it will blush at high damage.


==Moves that can hit farther than a Home-Run swing==
==Moves that can hit farther than a Home-Run swing==
Due to differences in [[knockback scaling]], certain moves can send the Sandbag farther than a Home-Run swing once the Sandbag's accumulated damage has become high enough.
Due to differences in [[knockback scaling]], certain moves can send the Sandbag farther than a Home-Run swing once the Sandbag's accumulated damage has become high enough.


Exact damage thresholds for some moves are unknown and are only given as bounded ranges. For example, if a move is listed as outperforming the Home-Run swing after "100% - 200%", the Home-Run swing is confirmed to be better at 99% or lower, and the other move is confirmed to be better at 200% or higher, but it is not known which move is better between these two numbers and the actual threshold may be as low as 100% or as high as 200%.

Moves that would require an unreachably high damage to outperform the Home-Run Bat are not listed.
The following lists only include moves potentially viable for record strategies; for example, moves that would require an unreachably high damage to outperform the Home-Run Bat are not listed, nor are moves that could outperform the Home-Run Bat but would always be outclassed by another move by that point.

{{cleanup|A lot of the "citations" on these do not properly demonstrate that the claimed move actually outperforms the bat.}}
In ''Ultimate'', the Home-Run Bat's launch power is nerfed in the Home-Run Contest. This makes it easier for moves to outperform the bat, thereby leading to a much greater diversity of moves that outperform the bat than in ''Smash 4''.

Note: in theory, any move with a higher launch angle than 30˚ would eventually outperform the bat due to maximum horizontal launch speed being restricted; however, in practice, the 999% damage cap prevents this from being a reality.

==Competitive Home-Run Contest==
==Competitive Home-Run Contest==
Since almost the beginning of ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', Home-Run Contest has been played competitively. Originally, before the game's release in Europe, North America and Japan had a competition between each other for the highest Home-Run Contest scores. This then moved out to include Europe when the game was released in its PAL version. This competitive nature has continued and grown onto ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', both versions of ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', and ''Super Smash Bros Ultimate'' especially due to the replay function (thus making video production easier) and video streaming sites such as YouTube. However, due to the large technique changes from game to game, most notably the introduction of the barrier and multiple bat drops in one jump in ''Brawl'', there is very little player overlap between games.

*'''NBA: No Bat Allowed.''' The bat cannot be used to attack in any way. The bat can be picked up, as long as it is not used. NBA strategies are usually unique, as it requires a completely different playing style. Bat swing cannot be used.

Two other subcategories that were created during ''Melee'''s lifetime were BMO and NJA:
*'''BMO: B Moves Only.''' Only special moves are allowed, and the last attack to hit Sandbag must be a special move. The bat can be used, so somewhat unique bat drops / throws are utilized. Bat swing cannot be used, as it counts as a forward smash. In ''Brawl'' with the advent of the barrier, the record strategies for this subcategory have mostly turned into multiple bat drops with a single special move used to finish, which some argue is against the category's original purpose.

Since the Sandbag never lands, no score is recorded (the game eventually crashes once the Sandbag goes past 4990.0 m or too far beyond the screen). {{YouTube|XLc8eagt9dk}}

**Through [[TAS]], Peach is also able to hit the Sandbag over the limit [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQetwMVP2S4], but cannot exactly hit 11,347.2 feet, with the best record known so far being 11,329.1 feet: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLKTC7cHPmw]
**The game can be hacked to remove the distance limitation.
**By hacking the game to remove the distance limitation, it can be seen that the Ice Climbers' world record would otherwise be 25,542.3 feet (in real time) or 80,046.7 feet (through TAS). [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UF0SpChC4s] Over-limit distance numbers for Ganondorf and Peach are currently undocumented.
***Under this change, the Ice Climbers' record is 25,542.3 feet, set by maple0810 {{YouTube|5UF0SpChC4s}}
***With TAS, Ganondorf's record is 21,788.2 feet {{YouTube|o_xdUnCZv9k}}
***With TAS, the Ice Climbers' record is 80,341.7 feet {{YouTube|Q9w25h4APd0}}
****With theoretically perfect randomisation, Peach can achieve a TAS distance of 300,510.2 feet {{YouTube|pkW7JDXeqCE}}, though it has not been proven if the game's pseudorandom algorithm is sufficiently high-quality to actually generate the needed sequence in time.

===In ''Melee''===
*In ''Melee'', there is a wall approximately 50 feet/15 metres to the left of the platform (off screen) that Sandbag can bounce off of.

[[File:Ssbm homeruncomparison.png|thumb|right|Sandbag's position and scale are identical between versions while the platform's scale isn't, proving the US version has a smaller platform.]]

*In ''Melee''{{'}}s Home-Run Contest, the platform changes size depending on what language the game is set to. The US version is slightly smaller than the Japanese and European versions. (This can be demonstrated by hitting the Sandbag from its starting position with a [[dash attack]] from the Home-Run Bat; the Sandbag will fall off the platform in the US version but stay on in the Japanese and European versions.)
*The platform changes size depending on what language the game is set to. The American version is slightly smaller than the Japanese and PAL versions. (This can be demonstrated by hitting the Sandbag from its starting position with a [[dash attack]] from the Home-Run Bat; the Sandbag will fall off the platform in the American version but stay on in the Japanese and PAL versions.)
*In the NTSC version of ''Melee'', the distance counter will stop at 9999.9 feet as it has run out of digits. However, values beyond this are still properly recorded under each characters' high score.
*In the NTSC English version, the distance counter will stop at 9999.9 feet as it has run out of digits. However, values beyond this are still properly recorded under each characters' high score.
**Four characters, Ganondorf, the Ice Climbers, Captain Falcon, and Peach, can exceed 10,000 feet in ''Melee''. Of these, Ganondorf is the only one that can do so in real time without using a glitch.

***The Ice Climbers require using the [[freeze glitch]], while Captain Falcon and Peach require [[TAS]] to pull off their strategies, and so they cannot reasonably be performed in real time.

*In ''Brawl'', the stage is composed of a unique [[terrain]] type designed so that {{SSBB|Olimar}} can only get Purple Pikmin. This is likely so that Olimar players would not constantly restart to get a Purple at an opportune moment, as the mechanics of the mode cause Purples to be the most useful Pikmin almost without question. Even in ''Smash 4'', where terrain no longer affects Pikmin plucking and they are normally plucked in a fixed order, {{SSB4|Olimar}} still begins with three Purple Pikmin. ''Smash 4'' would go on to introduce additional mechanics to reduce randomness.
===In ''Brawl''===
*In ''Brawl'', the highest number the distance counter can reach is 999,999.9, only visible with hacks. If the Sandbag is hit this far, it can also be seen that the signs on the ground start getting pushed along with the camera.

*In ''Brawl's'' co-op Home-Run Contest, it is possible to view the area to the [https://youtu.be/PF3HYj5Ws2c left of the main platform]. This can be done by having one player hit Sandbag off the platform, then having the other player send Sandbag flying to the left of the stage with the [[Home-Run Bat]]; the camera will continue to follow Sandbag, showing the backside of the stage, as well as its "end" if Sandbag is hit far enough.

*In co-op mode, it is possible to view the area to the {{YouTube|PF3HYj5Ws2c|left of the main platform}}.

===In ''For 3DS''===
*Attacks that usually cause a "screen-shaking" effect will not shake the screen while in the Home-Run Contest stadium. The same goes for the [[Target Blast]] stadium.
 
===In ''For Wii U''===
*Some tickets in [[Master Orders]] involve reaching a certain distance in the Home-Run Contest. These tickets allow [[custom moves]] to be used (and used to allow [[equipment]] as well until version [[1.0.8]]), something that is not normally possible when playing the Home-Run Contest. If {{SSB4|Mr. Game & Watch}} uses [[Extreme Judge]] (which normally only lands on 1 or 9), it will be changed to regular [[Judge]] and always land a 6 as usual.

===In ''Ultimate''===
*[[Special Zoom]] does not occur on moves that trigger the effect, unless Sandbag is launched by it.
*The maximum possible distance using the Home-Run swing is 4,135.3 km {{YouTube|rDbWVxNjHkc}}. The limit is reached at 880% damage (upper bound){{YouTube|MUnkXVOXd0I|t=27}}.
*The maximum possible distance is 4,294,967.295 km {{YouTube|DT6p0dUU0Fg|t=142}}, as that number is the {{s|wikipedia|32-bit}} {{iw|wikipedia|integer|computer science}} limit for representation as an (unsigned) binary number.
*The maximum distance that the top left counter can show is 2,147,483.647 km {{YouTube|DT6p0dUU0Fg|t=142}}, as that number is the {{s|wikipedia|32-bit}} {{iw|wikipedia|integer|computer science}} limit for representation as two's complement.
*The maximum distance that the ground counters can show is 9,999.999 km {{YouTube|r6llZDm6Qro|t=141}}.
 
==Trivia==
*All games' Home-Run Contests have the announcer say "Ready..." upon starting the mode, though only ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4'' have him say ''"Go!"'' right afterwards.
*In ''Melee'', Sheik ends up sending opponents flying vertically with the Home-Run Bat. As a result, she needs to transform into Zelda to use the Home-Run Bat properly in the Home-Run Contest.
*[[Jigglypuff]] is one of the few characters in the mode that can be KO'd, by breaking its shield. Also, [[Snake]] can be KO'd by blowing himself up with [[C4]], and [[Steve]] can be KO'd by blowing himself up with [[TNT]]. Should this happen, these characters will respawn from the [[revival platform]].
**At least in ''Melee'', with theoretically perfect randomization, it is possible for {{SSBM|Peach}} to KO herself by pulling at least 6 [[Bob-omb]]s within the 10 seconds {{YouTube|np3MmCwyik8}}, though it has not been proven if the game's pseudorandom algorithm is sufficiently high-quality to actually generate this.
*While ''Ultimate''{{'}}s version of the Home-Run Contest powers up several characters by default, such as giving Joker Arséne, and giving Steve his diamond tools, {{SSBU|Lucario}} still begins with minimum [[aura]], as it does in previous games, giving it a significant handicap as its attacks all have a 0.66× damage multiplier.
