===Exhibition/Salty Suite===
An '''exhibition''' is a featured set between two players who are usually of higher or top skill level. While the set is often a display of technical skill for the audience, it is typically played with the purpose of settling a feud between the two players, in which case it is colloquially referred as a '''Salty Suite'''. Notable streaming groups, such as {{Team|VGBootCamp}}, have hosted these types of side events at tournaments such as {{Trn|Apex 2014}} and {{Trn|Apex 2015}}. The salty suite between {{Sm|Leffen}} and {{Sm|Chillin}} during the latter tournament, would go on to be the most well known salty suite exhibition set within the greater ''Smash Bros.'' competitive scene. Some of these events will also often have additional wager on the line, such as [[money match|money]], or non-monetary wagers such as forbidding the loser from using a particular [[palette swap]] at future tournaments.
An '''exhibition''' is a featured match or set between players separate from any tournament. The results of an exhibition match usually don't factor in to any other competitive event and are often treated as its own category in competitive records. Players in an exhibition match are typically famous competitors of high skill level who use the match as an opportunity to show of their skills. Exhibitions are also typically played to settle a feud between the players, with the loser often having to sacrifice something of value to the winner.
