Event matches are special challenges that were first introduced as a set of 51 single player tasks in Super Smash Bros. Melee. Each event match puts the player into a scenario with special conditions and a certain objective. The player must complete the objective in order to complete the event match, and the game records the completion and "score" of each event match. A completely new set of 41 single player event matches was included in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, with a separate set of 21 co-op event matches also included. Brawl also introduced three difficulty levels for each event match - easy, medium, and hard. Few of Melee's event matches force characters to either play as the character in an alternante costume or fight against the character or characters in a different costume (Mosty Trophy Tussle matches), while Brawl has only two events that both forces the player to play as the character in a different costume and team up with characters in their alternate costumes.

While most Melee events allow the player to choose any character, with relatively few being pre-determined, this is reversed in Brawl - in the latter game, all bar the few All-Star Matches and the final two events have set fighters. This appears to be done so that players are forced to use nearly every character at least once, while Melee only makes the player use all the non-clones.
