A '''money match''', sometimes referred to as a '''cash battle''' and abbreviated as '''MM''', is a match that involves an element of gambling, such as the winner getting a sum of real-world money or some other prize in addition to an in-game victory. Money matches can occur at any time for any reason, often used as a method of gaining competitive sets outside of tournaments. Money matches are sometimes side events at [[tournament]]s (such as in a [[Salty Suite]]), as well as proposed in an online environment with electronic methods of payment being used to pay the wager. Non-monetary wagers are also commonplace, such as the loser paying for the winner's expenses or giving up a valuable item of some kind; [[Leffen vs. Chillin (Apex 2015)|a particularly well-known money match]] between {{SSBM|Fox}} players {{Sm|Leffen}} and {{Sm|Chillin}} at [[Apex 2015]] had a monetary wager of $100 USD, along with the loser surrendering the "rights" to [[Alternate costume (SSBM)#Fox|Fox's default costume]]. Sometimes the wager is simply bragging rights, which itself can be quite valuable in a competitive sport, where public image is very important. In many cases, players' careers can be defined by their performance in money matches; {{Sm|Rolex}} vs. {{Sm|Professor Pro}} at {{Trn|SKTAR 3}} remains one of the most famous sets in the history of [[Project M]] and ''Smash'' as a whole. | A '''money match''', sometimes referred to as a '''cash battle''' and abbreviated as '''MM''', is a match that involves an element of gambling, such as the winner getting a sum of real-world money or some other prize in addition to an in-game victory.
