The '''pre-match timer''' is an element that appears before the start of a match. The announcer will count down starting from three and say "GO!" to commence the match and start any timer. Depending on which game, characters will make their [[on-screen appearance]] during this time, and the [[music]] track will be briefly displayed in the top left-hand corner as well (''Brawl'', ''Smash 4'', and ''Ultimate''). Prior to the start of the countdown in ''Ultimate'', a [[versus splash screen]] will appear, showing the fighters for that match. | The '''pre-match timer''' is an element that appears before the start of a match.

In ''[[Melee]]'', the countdown is replaced with a meter depleting, with the time in centiseconds going down (though this is purely aesthetic and goes down quickly), and the announcer will instead say "Ready...Go!". A variation of this without the time is used since ''Brawl'' during [[single player]] modes such as [[All-Star]] and [[Adventure Mode: World of Light]]. Unlike in ''Melee'', on-screen appearances will be absent during this time. | In ''[[Melee]]'', the countdown is replaced with a meter depleting, with the time in centiseconds going down (though this is purely aesthetic and goes down quickly), and the announcer will instead say "Ready...Go!" when all playable characters share the same trophy appearance animations coming to life at the start of the match.
