Finishing Zoom
The Finishing Zoom is very similar to the Special Zoom, except it occurs when any player strikes their last remaining opponent (or only opponent in a 1v1 match) who is on their last stock or critically low HP. The Finishing Zoom won't occur during timed matches unless it goes to Sudden Death. A variant of the ping will be played as well.
