A '''ditto match''' or a '''mirror match''' is a match where both players choose the same [[character]]. They are different from other matches in that neither player has a match-up or stage advantage over the other player. The name comes from the definition of 'ditto', which means 'the same'. Ditto matches occur at times during tournaments. | A '''ditto match''' or a '''mirror match''' is a match where both players choose the same [[character]].

Strategies for a ditto match often vary greatly from the character's normal strategy. This is especially the case for characters such as [[Marth]] or [[Jigglypuff]], whose strategies rely on an advantage in [[range]], mobility, or attack speed; this variation is removed during a ditto match. Another example would be in a [[Super Smash Bros.]] Captain Falcon ditto match, where even low ranked Captain Falcons can take out top people due to incredibly easy combos, or [[Yoshi]] ditto matches where [[DJC]]'ing isn't as common.
