The freshness bonus from ''Brawl'' is retained, and damage calculation is altered to the point where a fully staled move will deal 0.5294x of its original damage, being higher than in ''Brawl'' but lower than in ''Melee''. In addition, the knockback formula reduces the sum of reduction factors and freshness bonus to 0.3x of its calculated value when taking in the damage dealt, meaning that staleness is 70% less of a factor on knockback dealt. As a result, the damage dealt by KO moves will easily override the knockback loss to staleness outside of extreme cases, especially when taking the [[rage]] effect into consideration, and like in ''Melee'', players do not need to actively concern themselves with preserving the usage of KO moves. This change also prevents the exploitation of staleness to chain a single low-knockback move well beyond normal. | The freshness bonus from ''Brawl'' is retained, and damage calculation is altered to the point where a fully staled move will deal 0.5294x of its original damage, being higher than in ''Brawl'' but lower than in ''Melee''.

Items are additionally no longer subject to stale-move negation, including character-produced items such as Link's [[Bomb (Link)|Bombs]] and Mega Man's [[Metal Blade]]. However, the usage of them will still enter the queue if they hit, meaning characters that can produce items can effectively refresh their queue without having to stale other moves, when they hit another character or damageable stage element with their item. Additionally, although it is an item, the Home-Run bat in Home-Run Contest is still affected by stale move negation. | |||
Like in ''Brawl'', both the stale-move negation and the freshness bonus do not apply in any single-player mode outside of the [[Home-Run Contest]]. | Like in ''Brawl'', both the stale-move negation and the freshness bonus do not apply in any single-player mode outside of the [[Home-Run Contest]]. |
