*[[Falco (SSBB)|Falco]] (P2) grabs [[Ike (SSBB)|Ike]] (P3) and while Falco is holding Ike, another player, [[Lucas (SSBB)|Lucas]], attacks them with [[PK Freeze]].

Since Ike (P3) has a higher port than Falco (P2), Ike receives FSA, so Falco releases him while Ike takes damage from Lucas' attack, but is otherwise unaffected. Falco, however, will take damage as well as being knocked into the air and becoming frozen. | ||
*Toon Link (P1) pulls out and holds a [[bomb]]. [[Lucario (SSBB)|Lucario]] (P4) grabs him, and while he is holding Toon Link, the bomb explodes. Lucario (P4) receives FSA and only takes damage, but Toon Link (P1) incurs knockback and a fire ailment from the bomb. | *Toon Link (P1) pulls out and holds a [[bomb]].

*Snake sticks a [[C4]] onto [[Meta Knight (SSBB)|Meta Knight]] (P2). Meta Knight then grabs Diddy Kong (P1), and uses his up throw. This causes both he and Diddy to rise above the stage, and while they are high in the air, Snake detonates the C4. Since Meta Knight has FSA, he falls to safety while Diddy is KOd by the upper blastline, from the C4's knockback. This trick, known as the "Omnigay" (named after a player called InfernoOmni<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhmRoAz_4CQ InfernoOmni performing the Omnigay</ref>), is popular in competitive team matches. | *Snake sticks a [[C4]] onto [[Meta Knight (SSBB)|Meta Knight]] (P2).

Due to the effects of FSA, port priority is of significant importance during competitive [[doubles]] matches, and singles matches that involve [[Snake (SSBB)|Snake]], [[Link (SSBB)|Link]] or [[Toon Link (SSBB)|Toon Link]], since these characters can summon explosive items. As such, many [[tournament]]s enforce rules and procedures to ensure fairness. For example, before a set of singles matches, a game of rock-paper-scissors may determine which player chooses his or her port first if there is a dispute, or the privilege may instead be given to the player who strikes the first [[stage]] in a stage striking process. Doubles sets often arrange team players in a "1221" fashion, and may allow the losing team to choose their ports for the second match. | Due to the effects of FSA, port priority is of significant importance during competitive [[doubles]] matches, and singles matches that involve [[Snake (SSBB)|Snake]], [[Link (SSBB)|Link]] or [[Toon Link (SSBB)|Toon Link]], since these characters can summon explosive items.
