'''Button Mashing''' is the act of quickly and randomly pressing various controller inputs in the hope that one's character react favorably. It, along with Spamming, is a tactic often used by new players who are unfamiliar with the mechanics of the game, and perhaps as a crude means for chains and [[combo]]s. Due mainly to the large play area and ample defenses, success in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series is not particularly conducive with this method, as many other games in the fighting genre may be.

Button mashing does have some specific uses. For example, rapidly pressing buttons allows characters to escape situations like being [[stun]]ned, [[grab]]bed, or [[frozen]] more quickly.
