It is possible for a player to use more than one main character, though multiple mains are generally less common. In tournaments, multiple mains are more common with low tier mainers as they usually require more than one character in order to face all [[matchup]]s. | It is possible for a player to use more than one main character, though multiple mains are generally less common.

One may also main different characters in different games, like how [[Smasher:ZeRo|ZeRo]] mains {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and {{SSB4|Diddy Kong}} in ''[[SSB4]]''. This is common, seeing as many characters' tournament viability can fluctuate in different games. | |||

- This article refers to a main character in terms of a player. It does not refer to the main character of a game (i.e. protagonist).
A player's main character, often shortened to main, is the character a person uses the most often. For instance, Ken's main in Super Smash Bros. Melee is Marth. "Main" also can be used as a verb, e.g., "Isai mains Captain Falcon and Sheik". In contrast, secondary characters are used in specific situations or just for casual play.
It is possible for a player to use more than one main character, though multiple mains are generally less common. In tournaments, multiple mains are more common with low tier mainers as they usually require more than one character in order to face all matchups.
One may also main different characters in different games, like how ZeRo mains Meta Knight in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Diddy Kong in SSB4. This is common, seeing as many characters' tournament viability can fluctuate in different games.
