'''Trouble King''' is the 1st [[event match]] of the 51 event matches in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.


'''Event Match 1: Trouble King''' is the first of the 51 [[Event mode|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 [[Special Stages: Battlefield|Battlefield]] stage.  
The player controls Mario, who must win a 2 [[stock]] match against a [[CPU]] Bowser on the {{SSBM|Battlefield}} stage. The event match features no time limit. Bowser is heavily [[handicap]]ped and his [[artificial intelligence]] is set to Level 1.
When the match starts, Mario spawns at the center of the main platform, while Bowser spawns on the top soft platform.


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!]]

After selecting Event 1 from the Event mode menu, the match automatically begins with you playing as Mario vs. Bowser on the [[Special Stages: Battlefield|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.
==Trivia==
*This event match has a successor in the form of [[Event 42: Trouble King 2]]. It received another follow-up in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' with [[Event 1: Two Trouble Kings]].
*The music track that plays in this match, "Multi-Man Melee 2", is not used in any other event match until [[Event 51: The Showdown]]. In this regard, the two event matches can serve as bookends of the mode.


==Strategies==
{{Event Melee}}
This is not a tough Event match at all, so specific strategies for most players are not actually needed. Since it is an Event match, it can be played over and over again, and hardcore Smashers set completion time records for themselves by defeating [[Bowser]]'s two lives as quickly as possible. Specific strategies may be applied here to minimize the completion time
 
The strategy used to achieve the World Record rating of 7.5 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]] [[meteor smash]]. Both Mario and Bowser should die. After respawning, either repeat the process or spike Bowser with the top of the [[Mario Tornado]].
 
 
==Gimp Killing==
 
It's possible to [[Gimp kill]] Bowser in this Event Match. First wait for Bowser to fall through the platform, and then [[Grab]] him and [[Back throw]] him. As soon as he comes back on the stage, use Forward [[Smash]] to make Bowser go through the [[Blast line]]. When he comes back, wait for Bowser to lose his [[Invincibility frame]]s. Then back throw Bowser again when you're standing on the edge of the stage. Bowser will then try to use his [[Whirling Fortress]]. As soon as he does it, [[Wavedash]] backwards to [[Edge-hog]]. You will finish the match in at least 16 seconds with a total of 43% damage.
 
 
First Gimp Kill: 32% damage.
 
Second Gimp Kill: 11% damage.
