'''Final Destination''' ({{ja|終点}} ''Shūten'', '''Ending''') is a [[Special Stage]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. It has the feel of its ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' counterpart (also called {{SSBM|Final Destination}}), except ''Brawl's'' Final Destination is smaller, most notably it has a lower ceiling. It is a perfectly flat stage with no environmental hazards or background dangers. It functions exactly like the ''Melee'' version, but has updated graphics and a boxier bottom side. In ''Brawl'', Final Destination flies through exquisitely detailed backgrounds such as a galaxy, a wormhole, a starry sky, and finally, a "lovely ocean view", among many in-between scenarios, similar to the one at the end of [[Subspace Emissary]]. It is possible to get caught under the ledge and be unable to recover, though it now is possible for characters with superb recoveries to fly under it from one end to the other. Players often employ these stage lips to [[stage spike]] opponents, as stage spiking them here will often send opponents straight down.

Fighting on Final Destination is often quite straightforward, as there are no platforms or hazards on the stage. Projectile combat is often employed because it is always a straight shot at the opponent. Characters without projectiles are often forced to go on the offensive against those with projectiles to negate the range advantage that said projectiles give.

Given that the stage is, from a fighting perspective, the same as the one in ''Melee'', the [[Final Destination (SSBM)#Controversy in Competitive Play|controversy]] that surrounded the old Final Destination still applies to this one. Like its ''Melee'' counterpart, its neutrality is disputed.

 

[[Master Hand]] (and, under certain conditions, [[Crazy Hand]]) will fight the player here when playing [[Classic Mode]]. Additionally, both Hands are fought here during [[Boss Battles Mode]] in separate battles.

A jump similar to the [[Hyrule Jump]] can be employed on Final Destination, where certain characters can travel under the stage from one end and emerge at the other. The Final Destination jump can be used as a method to surprise one's opponent. It is often used as a test of a character's horizontal recovery. For example, Meta Knight's ability to perform the jump several ways is an indicator of his above-par recovery.

*{{SSBB|Kirby}} - Kirby use his five midair jumps to go under the stage and finish with [[Final Cutter]]. He can also copy other characters' neutral special moves and use them to help him recover.

*{{SSBB|Link}} - Link can use his [[Bomb]] for [[Bomb recovery]], though this only works at higher percentages.

*{{SSBB|Lucario}}- Lucario can aim [[ExtremeSpeed]] into the wall to [[wall cling]], then wall jump up above the ledge, allowing it to land on the stage.

*{{SSBB|Peach}} - Peach can float under the stage and then reach the ledge with a [[Peach Parasol]].

*{{SSBB|Sonic}} - Can use [[Homing Attack]] on the base of the stage and [[Spin Dash]] to go under most of the stage, and then [[Spring Jump]].

==Features==

*No hazards or unusual features effecting the stage.

*A flat area with no obstructions.

*Sections under each ledge has the properties of a wall, thus allowing players to [[Wall jump]] and [[Wall cling]].

*Boxier bottom under edges do not always allow players that are beneath to hug the stage to ledge grab, which complicates recovery and frequently cause recoveries to fail.

*''Brawl'''s Final Destination was the first one whose surface isn't in the shape of an octagon (especially if one ignores the thin panels on either side of the stage), and doesn't have any variation of the color purple visible (if one disregards the "gem" located within the stage).

*This is the only Final Destination in the series to be a [[starter stage|starter]].
