Creating a tournament.

Tourney (トーナメント, Tournament) is a multiplayer mode in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. In this mode, players enter a tournament bracket and battle each other, with the winner of a game moving on to the next level of the bracket. The final two players battle in a grand finals game, and the winner of that game is declared champion. As with Brawl, up to 32 players are allowed, as opposed to the 64 max players of Melee and for Wii U. The rules for games in the tournament can be adjusted with most of the same options as other competitive modes.

This mode supports the use of amiibo, with up to 32 Figure Players allowed to be used at once. Multiple players can use the same characters with the same palette swaps if they like, making it the only offline mode where players can do so. The seeding can be reshuffled at the start of the tournament in case the organizers are unsatisfied with the random seeding and wish to change which players fight each other. CPU and FP only fights can be skipped, but Figure Players do not earn experience.

As with Squad Strike, rulesets can be configured separately from the main Smash mode.

As part of the Version 4.0.0 Update, an Online Tourney mode was added, making this iteration of Tournament Mode to be the first in the series to be offered both offline and online.

In competitive play[edit]

Despite being specifically designed for tournaments, this mode is almost never used for large scale tournaments. The ability to manually seed brackets is a notable improvement over the systems in Melee and Brawl. However, no other problems from previous games (such as a 32 player limit, all players needing to use the same system offline, brackets being restricted to single match sets, single-elimination, as well as the inability to change characters between games) were fixed. Other options have been used over the years like Start.gg or writing the bracket down by hand.

Trivia[edit]

  • The announcer's voice clips where he shouts "Round 1", "Round 2" and "Round 3" are previously unused voice clips found in both versions of Smash 4's data. This is also the case in voice clips used for the Mii Fighters.
  • The announcer's voice clip where he shouts "The champion is..." seems to have an error at the beginning, as it starts with a slight pause. This is more noticeable when played in Sound Test. This was not the case in SSB4, as the announcer did not vocalize on the champion screen.
  • When playing in an online tournament, there's an unknown glitch which causes some characters who are currently using an alternate costume to use their default costumes in-battle.
