Event Match 1: Trouble King is the first of the 51 Event Matches in the Event mode of Super Smash Bros. Melee. It is more-or-less a straight-forward 2-stock match between the player's Mario and the computer-controlled Bowser with unlimited time on the Battlefield stage.
This is one of four event matches that take place on the Battlefield stage; the others are Event 36: Space Travelers (later on), Event 37: Legendary Pokemon, and Event 44: Mewtwo Strikes!
The "sequel" to this event match, Two Trouble Kings, appears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, likewise being the first event match in that game.
Layout
After selecting Event 1 from the Event mode menu, the match automatically begins with you playing as Mario vs. Bowser on the Battlefield stage. You spawn on the center of the stage's lowest level while Bowser spawns above the topmost platform. Both Mario and Bowser have two lives in stock although you should complete this without losing a life. The stage has an unlimited time for completion.
The object of the match is to KO Bowser twice. Bowser is given an unimpressive AI, most likely Level 2, compelling him to attack sluggisly and occasionally, and is given a large handicap, allowing him to be knocked back somewhat easily despite his weight.
Strategies
This is not a difficult Event Match, so most players will not require a specific strategy. However, since it is an Event Match, some hardcore Smashers like to try to set (personal) records for completion time.
The strategy used to achieve the World Record (as noted above) is as follows: as soon as possible, grab and forward throw Bowser off the edge and then jump out and hit him with a forward aerial. Both Mario and Bowser should die. After respawning, either repeat the process or spike Bowser with the top of the Mario Tornado.
Another strategy is to continually hit Bowser with cape until he is at high enough damage to finish. Bowser does not attack much so you should be safe.
