Platforms are the basic building blocks of all stages in the Smash series. The four main classes of platforms are hard, semisoft, soft, and supersoft. Ledges from which characters can hang or, in Brawl, tether, can occur on any of the first three types, though they are most commonly found on the ends of hard platforms. Platforms can also possess a wide variety of other characteristics, such as rotation, weight sensitivity, destructibility, and more. Some items and special moves interact with platforms in more complex ways as well, such as a Hothead's ability to circumnavigate many platforms. (more...)
