Tourney (SSBU)
Tourney (トーナメント, Tournament) is a multiplayer mode in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. As with Brawl, up to 32 players are allowed, as opposed to the 64 max players of Melee and for Wii U.
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 order to make sure certain opponents do not face each other too early on. 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.
Trivia
- 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.
- 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.
