Sudden Death: Difference between revisions

'''Sudden Death''' occurs when a vs. mode match ends in a tie. All players are given [[Damage Percent|300% damage]], as opposed to zero, making them easy to [[KO]]. This mode can be instantly accessed via the Special Melee mode "[[Super Sudden Death]]". After a certain amount of time, [[Bob-omb]]s will begin to fall from the sky, a feature which is absent from the Special Melee version.

Sudden Death almost never occurs in Stock mode (barring a timed Stock Match), though it ''is'' possible if all characters lose their last life at the exact same time (to the second). Certain forms of [[Kirbycide]] can easily create this situation in two player matches, and having all characters on a horizontal platform in Icicle Mountain can also do such. If all characters die at the same time in Sudden Death, the player with the highest player number will win (ie if Player 1 and Player 2 tie in Sudden Death, Player 1 will win). This gives a negligible, but technically true, advantage to players with higher player numbers.
