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. |

Combo video
A combo video is a compilation that demonstrates the comboing abilities of certain characters or players. The concept of a combo video itself is very diverse and generalized. They can inlude mindgames towards other players or move strings, contrasting true combos. A combo video can be about comboing in general with a character, or about a specific combo.
Explanation
The character and combo both are usually shown in the title. A "Ken Combo" video might demonstrate the ability of Marth to combine his fair into his dair. However, a video merely titled "a Marth combo video" would likely show numerous other combos performable by Marth. A combo video's title could also be ambiguous, such as "Wombo Combo" simply being a clip demonstrating combos by two players at once. Combo videos are often made up of multiple excerpts from tournament matches or online play. The purpose of combo videos dually serves by educating beginners about how to combo with their main as well as demonstrating the creator's own skill.
Combo videos entered the smash scene in 2004 and have become increasingly popular ever since.
