The editor who added this tag elaborates: Were Finish Zoom glitches patched?

This update was released on August 4th, 2020 (August 5th in some time zones).

  • Stage
    • The Small Battlefield stage has been added. Players can also set Small Battlefield as a Preferred rule in Online battles.
    • Players can now select any stage-specific music for the Battlefield, Small Battlefield, Big Battlefield, and Final Destination stages.

      • Random Custom Stages also has its own unique icon now as well.
  • Online
    • The online user experience has been adjusted.
      • The tick rate of 1-on-1 battles not involving spectators has been increased from 30Hz to 60Hz, matching the in-game frame rate. This improves responsiveness, but decreases stability on low quality connections.[2]
      • Average input delay of 1-on-1 battles not involving spectators has been reduced from roughly 5 frames to 4 frames.[3]
    • The way matching is determined when using Preferred Rules has been adjusted.
    • Following a look at the current number of players eligible for Elite Smash, the threshold for entry has been recalculated to allow more players. Additionally, the way initial values for Global Smash Power are calculated has also been adjusted.

Further investigations and adjustments to Online mode are expected.

    • Several issues have been fixed to improve the gameplay experience.
    • Fixed Min Min's T-Pose glitch.

    • The display for Spring Man on Spring Stadium's billboard now properly shows his "S" logo instead of Springtron's "T" logo.
