The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters.
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted.

Walls are structures found on every stage in every Super Smash Bros. game in some capacity. They can cancel the momentum of a character that has been sent flying, and depending on launching speed and angle, can send that character in the opposite direction at a fraction of the knockback. In Super Smash Bros. Melee, characters were able to tech on walls to both cancel their knockback momentum and quickly revert to their neutral falling position to act with either an aerial attack or their recovery. Melee also introduced wall jumping, a technique available only to a few characters, which allows them to jump off of walls (with mostly offscreen walls and very short walls having walljumps disabled); even if a character has no natural wall jump, they can do so during a wall tech. A bonus is awarded for hitting, but not teching walls multiple times in a short time span during a match. Teching and wall jumping returned in Super Smash Bros. Brawl along with the wall cling technique, which was available to even fewer characters and allowed them to attach themselves to walls as an act of stalling.

All walls will stop projectile attacks and dashing characters; dashing and running characters will crash into walls and stop moving, though they can walk indefinitely into a wall (for no practical effect). The walls on Shadow Moses Island can be destroyed by attacks, and otherwise have the same properties as regular walls.
