Temple is a stage in Super Smash Bros. Melee and is the only known past stage currently confirmed to appear in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It is commonly known as Hyrule Temple, though its proper name is Temple (since "Hyrule" denotes Temple's location). An extremely large stage, it is banned in tournaments because its size provides opportunities for game-breaking camping and stalling.
Temple
The stage is one of the 18 default stages available in Super Smash Bros. Melee. It is a Legend of Zelda stage on which characters from that franchise will usually battle you in single-player battles.
In All-Star mode, this stage is played on when you face Zelda and any of her teammates.
The lower portion of the stage can be referred to as the Fight Club (coined by Nintendo Power), due to the fact that the surrounding environment keeps the opponent from leaving the stage or being knocked out easily. This can result in characters accumulating high damage, and ricocheting violently off the Fight Club's walls after every hit.
Because of its size, Temple is the arena of such feats as the Hyrule Jump.
Past Stages: Temple
Temple has been confirmed to return in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. There are no major differences between both versions.
