'''Hoop damage''' is the [[damage]] that a [[character]] receives when they are out of the camera's boundaries but not at the [[blast line]]. The character is still shown, but only inside a small "hoop" at the edge of the camera boundary. The damage is applied at a rate of 1% per second to prevent players from simply hiding near the blast lines of a stage. Once a character reaches 150%, however, hoop damage stops, meaning that stalling is still possible in [[Sudden Death]]. Hoop damage is present in ''[[Melee]]'', ''[[Brawl]]'', and ''[[SSB4]]''. It was mentioned on the [[Smash Bros. DOJO!!]] on April 14, 2008. Hoop damage occurs in every [[mode]], except for [[Training Mode]].

In ''Melee'' and ''SSB4'', the "hoop" is called the Magnifying Glass, as evidenced by the ''Lost In Space'' [[Bonus points|bonus]] and ''Magnifying-Glass Damage'' [[tip]].
