From ''Melee'' to ''Smash 4'', if nobody wins after roughly 20 seconds, [[Bob-omb]]s begin to fall from the sky to speed up the match. Unlike the Bob-omb items, these immediately explode on contact with any surface or player. In ''Melee'', the Bob-ombs act a little differently than in other games - they have no animation for appearing and can explode in mid-air without touching anything. As all players have 300% damage, getting hit by a Bob-omb is essentially an instant KO; however, with precise timing, players can grab Bob-ombs in midair with [[air dodge]]s or [[tech]] on any walls. Prior to ''Smash 4'', it is possible for a falling Bob-omb to instantly KO a player by launching them toward a side [[blast line]] while the other player is currently being sent flying by a [[Screen KO]] or [[Star KO]], causing the latter player to win the match in the middle of their KO animation; in ''Smash 4'', Star and Screen KOs normally no longer occur during Sudden Death. | From ''Melee'' to ''Smash 4'', if nobody wins after roughly 20 seconds, [[Bob-omb]]s begin to fall from the sky to speed up the match.

In ''Ultimate'', the camera will start at a fixed position and gradually zoom in from the center of the stage from the start of Sudden Death, with the [[blast zone]] shrinking alongside it until the camera itself is zoomed in very closely. The screen also now has flames around it from corner to corner, surrounding the center. | In ''Ultimate'', the camera will start at a fixed position and gradually zoom in from the center of the stage from the start of Sudden Death, with the [[blast zone]] shrinking alongside it until the camera itself is zoomed in very closely.

Should a tie occur within Sudden Death itself, which can only happen if all remaining characters are KO'd on the same frame, the match will end and a random player is selected to be the winner. In the first two ''Super Smash Bros.'' games, placement is based on [[port priority]]: in the original ''Super Smash Bros.'', the winner is the player with the highest port number (whose controller is closest to P4), while in ''Melee'', the winner is the player with the lowest port number (whose controller is closest to P1). As multiple players must be KO'd on the same frame for this to occur and the games run at 60 frames per second, the chances of this occurring are slim and any advantage given to certain player numbers compared to others is decidedly negligible, especially since Sudden Death is never used in competitive play. In ''Brawl'', tests have shown that the winner of the match is decided at random. In ''SSB4'', the winner is whoever dealt the most damage, with the placement of the other players following suit. The winner is decided at random if all players deal the exact same amount of damage. The same is true for ''Ultimate'', with the addition of a player that was elimated early potentially being randomly selected as the winner in games with more than two players. | Should a tie occur within Sudden Death itself, which can only happen if all remaining characters are KO'd on the same frame, the match will end and a random player is selected to be the winner.
