[[File:MuteCityFZX.png|thumb|left|200px|Mute City 1: Figure Eight as it originally appeared in ''{{s|fzerowiki|F-Zero X}}''.]]
This stage is based on the Mute City 1: Figure Eight track from ''{{s|fzerowiki|F-Zero X}}'', which is the first track in the Jack Cup. The overall layout and design of the track itself in this stage is mostly accurate to how it was in ''F-Zero X'' with elements that include {{s|fzerowiki|Dash Zone}}s on the track, which gave F-Zero {{s|fzerowiki|machine}}s a boost when driven over; {{s|fzerowiki|Pit}}s on the track, which gradually refilled the machine's {{s|fzerowiki|energy}} when driven over; spinning signs that read "Smash 2" instead of "Nintex"; and the buildings in the background. The Pits in this stage, however, act more like {{s|fzerowiki|Magnetic Field Block Coat}}s due to their slippery nature. In ''{{s|fzerowiki|F-Zero}}'', a sound is played every time the player crosses the finish line, which is the same sound heard when the "GO" notification appears in this stage before the platform begins to move.

In the ''F-Zero'' games, damage given to a machine depletes its energy. When the energy runs out, the machine explodes and {{s|fzerowiki|retire}}s. In this stage, the machines are based on their appearance in ''F-Zero X'', and when enough damage is dealt to them by fighters or explosives laid on the track, they will explode and the wreckage will stay at that same point for the rest of the match.

Line 36: Line 35:
Mute City is currently banned in ''Melee'', though it was a common [[counterpick]] stage in past rulesets. The reason for its banning is due to a lack of ledges that can be grabbed (which ironically made {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}} very bad on this stage) and the stage's primary platform size; it can just barely provide sufficient space for two combatants, and it becomes far too small for doubles play. Similar to [[Fountain of Dreams]], the stage can also lag in doubles play, making gameplay detrimental in such cases. In addition, {{SSBM|Peach}} had a notorious advantage against {{SSBM|Fox}} and {{SSBM|Falco}} on this stage.

This stage was also unbanned as a one-off in [[Apex 2015]] for {{Sm|Ken}} vs. {{Sm|PC Chris}}, though it was not played on.

==Trophy descriptions==
Upon reaching a charity milestone, Mute City was enabled as a counterpick stage during the final bracket of [[The Off-Season]]. {{Sm|Wizzrobe}} counterpicked to it in Winners' Semis (against {{Sm|aMSa}}), and {{Sm|Axe}} counterpicked to it in Losers' Semis (against {{Sm|S2J}}) and Losers' Finals (against {{Sm|Jmook}}). It returned at {{Trn|The Off-Season 2}} alongside [[Corneria]], which was won by {{Sm|aMSa}}.

''F-Zero courses are set hundreds of feet above ground and kept afloat by opposing-gravity guard beams on both sides of the tracks. Mute City, which grew from an intergalactic trading post to a city with a population of over two billion, is the most famous stop on the F-Zero Grand Prix. This course layout is from the F-Zero X era.''

*One of the billboards on the stage is labelled "SMASH 2", as ''Melee'' is the second installment of the ''Smash'' series.

*In the [[Special Movie]], during {{SSBM|Pikachu}}'s scene (when it uses {{b|Thunder|Pokémon}}), one of the "stops" of the stage is shown with two spinning platforms, when in every mode there is only one platform, and it moves laterally. These two platforms do appear in the trophy of Mute City (under the main platform, inside the track).

These two platforms may actually appear in the trophy of Mute City (under the main platform, inside the track).
*Racers are far larger and slower relative to the track than in ''F-Zero X''. ''F-Zero'' tracks are typically extremely wide so as to accommodate the extreme speeds.
*Racers are far larger and slower relative to the track than in ''F-Zero X''.
*The first time the F-Zero Racers appear on the stage in a match, the original 4 cars will be arranged in a square, but the others will just be scattered all over the track.
*The first time the F-Zero Racers appear on the stage in a match, the original 4 machines will be arranged in a square, but the others will be scattered all over the track.
*Mute City (SSBM), along with [[Icicle Mountain]] and [[Poké Floats]], are the only stages not to reappear outside of ''Melee''.
*If an F-Zero Racer is destroyed during the fight, its charred carcass will remain at the exact point where it exploded for the remainder of the match.
**This is also the only ''F-Zero'' stage that is not in ''Ultimate''.
*Mute City, along with [[Icicle Mountain]], {{SSBM|Mushroom Kingdom}} and [[Poké Floats]] are the only stages not to reappear outside of ''Melee''.
**This is also the only ''F-Zero'' stage that is not in ''Ultimate'', as [[Port Town Aero Dive]] is a functionally identical stage (both consist of platforms that move along with the racetrack with periodic stops, during some of which F-Zero Racers might plow into the fighters) and the game features the [[Mute City SNES|Mute City stage]] from ''for 3DS''.
