A '''self-destruct''' (abbreviated as '''SD''') is when a character is [[KO]]'d without being hit by an opponent. This usually equates to a suicide such as jumping off the edge, but falls also count as SDs when the stage KOs someone. In [[time mode]], self-destructs subtract one point by default from a player's score; this penalty can be changed to zero or two points. In [[bonus mode]], the player's [[bonus points|score]] is lowered by 500 points.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', however, a SD can only be attained if the KO'd character did not get hit by an opponent during the entire [[stock]]. Thusly, a character can be hit by any attack and walk off the edge, yet it does not count as an SD. Even performing a [[Footstool Jump]] without dealing damage will not make it count as an SD.
