The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters. |
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted. |

Once a match is desynched, the players are essentially playing different matches. Inputs will be sent and acted upon as usual, but the results of the inputs can be wildly different - a control stick input might be a down throw on one system, but the other system believes the grab whiffed, so the fighter simply crouches on that end.

Inputs will be sent and acted upon as usual, but the results of the inputs can be wildly different - a control stick input might be a down throw on one system, but the other system believes the grab whiffed, so the fighter simply crouches on that end. Re-syncing a match is sometimes possible, but requires an extensive and usually unfeasible amount coordination between the players involved, and the cause of the original desynch will likely cause another disconnection later. | ||

When playing online, the games send information about the actions performed, mostly, but they can also send information that a loadable element has finished loading. If a match is desynched, a player may open a [[Smash Ball]] on one screen, but not on another. On the console where the Ball is opened, the game will load data for the corresponding Final Smash, and will send all other players a message saying that the Final Smash has been loaded. Since on the other consoles no Smash Ball has been opened, and no Final Smash had to be loaded, this "loading successful" message is treated as a mistake. After around 10 seconds, it's acknowledged that a desynch has inevitably fallen into place, and all players are disconnected. | ||
