===Smashdown===
Some ''Ultimate'' tourneys use the [[Smashdown]] mode, where everyone is forced to pick a new character every game until none are left. While picking a character for a game is usually done on the spot, some require players to reserve fighters ahead of time to avoid disputes where multiple players want the same fighter. Due to the way Smashdown works, only a maximum of eight players can be in a single tourney, and they all have to play every game. The player that takes the most KOs during the tourney is declared the winner. The tourney can also end early if the mercy rule is on.

===Combo Contest===
A combo contest is an event where players perform the most impressive combo they can perform. The rules are typically any character can be used on any stage, and as many [[item]]s as neccessary can be used. The combo is judged by a panel that typically rate the combo out of ten. The entrant that performed the combo with the highest average score wins. While any game in the series is capable of a combo contest, ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' has the most popular combo contest scene by a wide margin due to the game engine allowing for incredibly long combos.
