'''Team Attack''', named '''Friendly Fire''' in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', is an optional feature for [[Team Battle]]s appearing in the ''Smash Bros.'' games. Normally, teammates are incapable of attacking or damaging each other, with attacks simply passing through them with no effect. Activating Team Attack disables this immunity, allowing teammates to hit or even [[KO]] each other.

*Teammates can attack each other to replenish their [[stale]] attacks or knock them out of [[ending lag]] (for example, jabbing a Jigglypuff that has used [[Rest]] in order to let them act much earlier).

The vast majority of [[tournament legal|tournament]]s for every game require that Team Attack be turned on. This ensures that teammates cooperate a lot more with each other and ensures that 2v1 strategies aren't as lopsided.
The vast majority of [[tournament legal|tournaments]] for all four games require that Team Attack be turned on in [[doubles]]. This forces extra co-ordination and makes it much more difficult to do two-on-one [[combo]]s.


In most one-player modes, Team Attack is turned off so players and enemies cannot hit their teammates.
In most one-player modes, Team Attack is turned off so enemies such as the [[Alloy]]s cannot hit each other. This also applies to the player team in co-op [[Target Test]]s and the like.


Some moves and [[Final Smash]]es can affect teammates whether Team Attack is on or off. These include:

If Team Attack is enabled, the [[Team Healer]] will consider any teammate an enemy, which means it will either heal them for 11%, or damage them for 8%. Leaving the option turned off does not affect the [[list of bonuses|bonuses]] Bully, Predator, and Stalker; even though teammates are immune to one's attacks and so the only viable target is the opponent, these single-target-penalizing bonuses still activate in 2-on-1 or 3-on-1 matches.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*In every game, CPUs will ignore Team Attack, throwing and pummeling teammates when they are grabbed on accident, as well as using powerful attacks even if a teammate at KO percentage is in the way.
*In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and  ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', the shield color for human players will be based on port number, rather than be based on team color (e.g. Player 1 has red shield, Player 2 has blue shield, Player 3 has yellow shield, and Player 4 has green shield). This also affects the color of their [[blast line]].
*Although {{SSBU|Ryu}}, {{SSBU|Ken}}, {{SSBU|Terry}} and {{SSBU|Kazuya}} will always face the opponent when there is only one left in a match, this calculation includes teammates when Team Attack is on.
**In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', the shield color is out of order for Player 3 and Player 4 (P3 will have a green shield and P4 will have a yellow shield). The blast line colors are random as well, for example, Player 1 could have a yellow explosion, while Player 2 could have a red explosion.
 
*In every game, CPUs will ignore Team Attack, throwing and pummeling teammates when they are grabbed on accident, as well as using powerful attacks on both enemies and other teammates, even when it can KO them.
