With the addition of the stage hazard toggle in ''Ultimate'', Brinstar was initially considered for a counterpick due to the acid no longer being a factor, but its very small blast zones relative to the body of the stage cause greater volatility due to noticeably lower average K.O percents over the course of a match, and its heavily sloped surfaces can disproportionately favor short, small characters who are already difficult to attack. As a consequence, it is rarely, if ever, used in competitive play.

After a significant period of not seeing competitive play, Brinstar was made legal for ''Melee'' doubles tournament play at {{Trn|The Off-Season 2}}, as a charity incentive.
