A '''single person match''' is a glitched match which features only one player or team of players. If the game mode is set to [[Stock]], the match ends as soon as it starts: this happens because, due to the absence of opponents, there are no opposing stocks to deplete, so the player or team instantly wins. If the game mode is set to [[Time]], {{b|Bonus|mode}} or [[Coin Battle|Coin]] the single player or team can fight normally on the stage until the [[Match timer|timer]] runs out.

This is not to be confused with the various [[single player]] game modes where the player is intended to play alone. This method is the multiplayer mode not functioning correctly.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==
It is possible to initiate a Single person Melee with a variation of the [[Name Entry glitch]], discovered by Exchord92.

The glitch can be performed in [[Versus mode]] by using the following method:

#With the cursor over the name field, the player should press {{Button|GCN|A}} and {{Button|GCN|B}} simultaneously.
#The player should release {{Button|GCN|A}}, but continue holding {{Button|GCN|B}}.
#The player should scroll down to "Name Entry". Then the player should press {{Button|GCN|A}} at the correct time while still holding {{Button|GCN|B}}.
#If this is timed correctly, the player will go to the stage selection screen.

If the player performed the glitch correctly and the game does not freeze upon selecting a stage, the match will end as soon as the [[announcer]] says "Go!" in Stock or Stamina, or the player will be alone in other modes.

Players can also perform this glitch with two to four characters all on the same team (using the [[black character glitch]]) instead of only one player. The match will end instantaneously due to there being only one team remaining.

==In {{forwiiu}}==
As of version 1.1.6, an online match could start with one player or team if:
*All players selected their character, and were waiting in the lobby. In this state, all players' statuses were marked as OK and it was not possible to exit the match via the pause menu.
*After the confirmation sound plays and the screen started going black, but before the actual start of the battle, one of the players disconnected.

The still-online player then would enter a single-player match, which would end just a frame after the announcer gave the "GO!" signal.
