As one of multiple changes done for the game's new online mode, ''Smash 4'' added a system as an attempt to combat players who attempt taunt matches or otherwise grief; among the offenses that players can be temporarily banned for include refraining from fighting, relentlessly targeting a specific player, intentionally self-destructing in a short period of time, and "other abuses of the system". Additionally, there is a limit to how often players can taunt during a match in [[With Anyone]] mode. | As one of multiple changes done for the game's new online mode, ''Smash 4'' added a system as an attempt to combat players who attempt taunt matches or otherwise grief; among the offenses that players can be temporarily banned for include refraining from fighting, relentlessly targeting a specific player, intentionally self-destructing in a short period of time, and "other abuses of the system".

Taunt matches are still a fairly common occurrence, particularly on [[For Fun]]. However, as a result of the taunting limit, they are not nearly as ubiquitous as they were in ''Brawl''. Characters with repetitive and/or aggravating attack animations and sounds are frequently used, as their attacks can be used as [[Taunt#Custom taunts pseudo-taunts]] to bypass the taunting limit. {{SSB4|Wario}} is a good example, as most of his moveset (particularly his [[Wario Waft]]) is accompanied by humorous animations and sounds, while his [[Wario Bike]] taunt is unaffected by the limit, making him a more frequent sight in taunt matches than in ''Brawl''. {{SSB4|Ganondorf}} and {{SSB4|Shulk}} are also occasionally seen due to their memetic status among players, who often find unintentional humor in their moves and mannerisms. | Taunt matches are still a fairly common occurrence, particularly on [[For Fun]].
