Super Smash Bros. Melee/Event Matches

01. Trouble King
Character: Mario

Description: Very easy event match. You fight against a Level 2 CPU Bowser with a handicap of 5. It's quite possible to beat this without Bowser even getting in one punch. You have two lives, and so does Bowser, but it wouldn't make a bit of difference if you only had one life.

Difficulty: Nonexistant

02. Lord of the Jungle
Character: Donkey Kong

Description: Another very easy event match, you're Giant DK, and you're pitted against a Level 3 CPU Mini DK with a handicap of 7 (but it seems even more of a handicap because you're so big and he's so small). Sounds easy, right? Well, that's because it is. It's a bit tougher than Event 1 because you have less room to move around, but Mini DK shouldn't be a problem at all, infact, like event 1, you should have no problem taking out Mini DK twice without losing a single life.

Difficulty: Nonexistant

03. Bomb-fest
Character: Select

Description: This can actually be somewhat challenging, just avoid Link and Samus and watch them blow each other to bits. Still, nothing compared to the event matches that lie ahead.

Difficulty: 5

04. Dino-wrangling
Character: Select

Description: You have three lives, and Giant Yoshi has one. However, fighting a Giant Level 4 CPU Yoshi shouldn't be that tough, infact you should be racking up his damage faster than he does yours, you may KO him without losing a single life. Plus, Giant Yoshi is clumsy enough to suicide sometimes as soon as the match begins. Pretty easy match.

Difficulty: 1

05. Spare Change
Character: Ness

Description: If you're not familiar with Grab The Coin mode, what you have to do is hit your opponent to cause coins to appear, if you're hit and recover fast enough, you can get the coins that came from you as well. Shouldn't be too tough as long as you know the basics of Ness. No need to master his PK Hammer and PK Cross moves, although they would help in this easy match.

Difficulty: 1

06. Kirbys on Parade
Character: Select

Description: Like events 1 and 2, the only challenge these offer is trying to beat your best time. Each Mini Kirby has two lives, while you have one. Still these Mini Kirbies are set to Level 1 CPU with a handicap of 5. The Kirbies are actually afraid of you, and only the pink ones will use weak defensive attacks. You should have no problem beating this.

Difficulty: Nonexistant

07. Pokémon Battle
Character: Select

Description: Can be very easy or very hard, use a fast charachter. You and Pikachu don't attack each other, instead you use Pokeballs. This level is more an exercise in frustration than anything. Grab more Pokeballs than Pikachu and you're gold.

Difficulty: 3

08. Hot Date on Brinstar
Character: Select

Description: You have 116% Damage at the start, Samus has 130%. Everyone has three lives. Use a heavy charachter and attack Samus with everything you have. Or use Mr. Game and Watch if you feel lucky and hope for three Judgement 9's or use Oil Panic. Should be pretty easy.

Difficulty: 2

09. Hide 'n' Sheik
Character: Select

Description: Only Sheik KOs count. Just beat the snot out of the Level 2 CPU Zeldas, wait for the change, and KO them as Sheik. Not too hard.

Difficulty: 3

10. All-Star Match 1
Character: Select

Description: You have two lives to beat Level 2 CPU Mario, DK, Bowser, Yoshi, and Peach. There's a good chance you'll complete this without losing a life.

Difficulty: 3

11. King of the Mountain
Character: Select

Description: Survive being stuck with two sets of Level 4 CPU Ice Climbers with infinate lives for 1 minute. Use a heavy, but agile charachter like DK, Ganondorf, or Captain Falcon.

Difficulty: 4

12. Seconds, Anyone?
Character: Select

Description: Both you and Captain Falcon start out at 100% damage, you have 7 seconds to KO C. Falcon. Sounds tough? Not really if you use DK, Captain Falcon, or Ganondorf. Mr. Game and Watch gets you the best time if you get a 9 on Judgement. Kind of fun once you get the hang of it.

Difficulty: 1

13. Yoshi's Egg
Character: Yoshi

Description: Protect Yoshi's egg for 55 seconds. You have an infinate amout of lives (and so do your opponents) but if the egg breaks, you lose. Just evade and don't focus too much on fighting.

Difficulty: 3

14. Trophy Tussle 1
Character: Select

Description: You're pitted against 3 random Level 3 CPU charachters on top of a Goomba. You can actually climb all the way to the bottom of the goomba without falling off.

Difficulty: 3

15. Girl Power
Character: Select

Description: Even though your charachter is a mini version of itself while the girl charachters are normal sized, this should be another easy event match. Samus is set to Level 4 CPU while Zelda and Peach are set to Level 3. Everyone has two lives.

Difficulty: 3

16. Kirby's Air-raid
Character: Kirby

Description: You have 36 seconds to KO a bunch of walking Kirby drones with warp stars. Not as easy as it sounds, but hardly maddening.

Difficulty: 3

17. Bounty Hunters
Character: Samus

Description: It's like in Very Easy mode of Classic where your teammate is set to a very competent level while your enemy is set to moron level. The challenge here isn't KOing Bowser, but getting Falcon to suicide to make it easier. Or, you can just smash at Bowser and hope that Falcon doesn't intervene.

Difficulty: 6

18. Link's Adventure
Character: Link

Description: You're Link up against a Level 6 CPU Oni-Link. Level 6 CPU opponents are more aggressive than the ones you've faced thus far, but you should have no problem bullying them into a KO. No need for evasive dodge techniques yet. Just dodge, shield, attack, grab, like you would a lower level opponent, however, you may end up losing a life to Oni-Link. Oni-Link's moves are identical to your own.

Difficulty: 5

19. Peach's Peril
Character: Mario

Description: It's tough to keep yourself AND Peach from getting KO'ed by a Level 7 CPU Bowser. Mostly he goes after Peach, who is set to walk mode like in training mode, so if you work up his damage, it should be easier to keep him away from Peach without getting yourself KO'ed.

Difficulty: 8

20. All-Star Match 2
Character: Select

Description: You're up against five Level 4 CPU opponents from the "realistic" series. Those are Samus, Captain Falcon, Link, Zelda, and Fox. Use your best charachter.

Difficulty: 4

21. Ice Breaker
Charachter: Select

Description: Both sets of Ice Climbers are set to jump. You must KO both Nanas, if one Popo is KOed, you lose the match. I STRONGLY reccommend Jigglypuff for this, just toss Nana into the air, and rest attack her. Using any other charachter makes this insanely difficult.

Difficulty: 6

22. Super Mario 128
Charachter: Select

Description: KO 128 tiny Level 1 CPU Marios with a Handicap of 1 that couldn't KO you if their life depended on it. It's like a very easy version of the 100 man melee.

Difficulty: 1

23. Slippy's Invention
Charachter: Select

Description: Fight a Level 6 Fox and Falco on top of the Great Fox in the Venom arena, who both have a permanent cloaking device. You all have two lives. Because you can't see them easily, it's tough to doge them and easy for them to dodge you. It's a combinaton of frustration and insane difficulty. This is one you probably won't play again.

Difficulty: 9

24. The Yoshi Herd
Charachter: Select

Description: Defeat 30 Yoshis, with the final one being a giant Yoshi. All Yoshis are set to Level 1 CPU with a Handicap of 2. Shouldn't be too hard.

Difficulty: 3

25. Gargantuans
Charachter: Bowser

Description: You have one life, DK has two. Both of you have a permanent super mushroom. You're heavier, Giant DK is clumsy, and as long as you're not clumsy yourself you should have an easy time with this match. You can be at over 400% damage and still Giant DK won't be able to send you flying very far.

Difficulty: 1

26. Trophy Tussle 2
Charachter: Select

Description: Fight 3 random Level 5 CPU opponents on top of an Entei. The difficulty heavily depends on your competence with the charachter you select. Usually one will stay by himself up at the top, and then becomes easy prey for you once you defeat the other 2.

Difficulty: 7

27. Cold Armor
Charachter: Samus

Description: You must fight 3 metal Level 5 Samuses on the Brimstar Depths arena. Your best bet is to try to get them to suicide or meteor smash them into oblivion, since metal opponents have a tough time recovering from a meteor attack.

Difficulty: 6

28. Puffballs Unite!
Charachter: Select

Description: Defeat 14 Level 3 Kirbies with copied abilities. Not too hard. It's sort of like the Team Kirby event in Adventure.

Difficulty: 3

29. Triforce Gathering
Charachter: Link

Description: You must defeat Level 7 Ganondorf with Zelda as an ally who has 2 lives without yourself or Zelda getting KO'ed once. After you defeat Ganondorf, he challenges you to become a playable charachter.

Difficulty: 8

30. All-Star Match 3
Charachter: Select

Description: Fight against a Level 5 CPU Kirby, Pikachu, Ness, and Ice Climbers, all are lightweight so they should be sent flying fairly easy.

Difficulty: 4

31. Mario Bros. Madness
Charachter: Select

Description: Score more KO's than the Level 6 CPU Mario Bros. You have an advantage in that if both suicide they lose 2 points, and if you do you lose 1, plus Luigi tends to suicide because he never uses his third jump, and only uses his green missile to get back on stage.

Difficulty: 5

32. Target Acquired
Charachter: Falco

Description: KO Jigglypuff more than the airwings do. Not a very easy match, but not insanely difficult either. More a humorous themed match than anything.

Difficulty: 6

33. Lethal Marathon
Charachter: Captain Falcon

Description: You must run through the F-Zero Grand Prix level of Adventure mode in 45 seoncds at 2x speed. Plus the cars are stronger than usual. It's very easy to mess up here and get KO'ed or suicide. Timing is everything.

Difficulty: 8

34. Seven Years
Charachter: Young Link

Description: You must defeat Level 8 CPU Link as Young Link. Each have 3 lives. Your best bet is to be a defensive player with Young Link. Attack from a distance, beat the snot out of Link if he comes close (or at least try) then run away and repeat before he knows what hit him. Eventually Link should be racking up the damage and you'll score a KO.

Difficulty: 7

35. Time For a Checkup
Charachter: Luigi

Description: As Luigi you must fight Dr. Mario and Nurse Peach (Peach in the white dress costume), who are both set to Level 7 CPU. You probably forgot to pay your bill, so they're after you. The humorous theme of the match will distract you from completing this actually somewhat difficult match. Focus on KOing Dr. Mario then Peach should be a snap.

Difficulty: 7

36. Space Travellers
Charachter: Ness

Description: Fight Samus, Kirby, and Fox on Fourside and Captian Falcon and Falco in Battlefield. It's actually quite tough because Falco is set to Level 8 and your damage will be quite high by then. Try to take out the first 4 without acquiring much damage who are Level 2, Level 2, Level 5, and Level 6 respectively.

Difficulty: 9

37. Legendary Pokemon
Charachter: Select

Description: Defeat Jigglypuff and 4 wireframes using Pokeballs. Not really that tough, even though most of the Pokemon are the Legendary Pokemon.

Difficulty: 4

38. Super Mario Bros. 2
Charachter: Select

Description: You're up against Luigi, Mario, and Peach in the Subcon stage. All are set to Level 7 CPU, making this a difficult 3 on 1 match. Focus on getting them to suicide. Luigi has a high chance of green missiling himself into oblivion at some point.

Difficulty: 8

39. Jigglypuff Live!
Charachter: Jigglypuff

Description: Looks challenging until you realize that you just need to throw the other Jigglypuffs into the air to win this match. They'll fly so high they're star KO'ed. You may complete this without losing a single life.

Difficulty: 1

40. All-Star Match 4
Charachter: Select

Description: Fight a Level 7 Marth, Luigi, Jigglypuff, Mewtwo, and a Level 8 Mr. Game and Watch with 2 lives. This is actually quite tough, especially at the end, but easier than Event 36.

Difficulty: 8

41. En Garde!
Charachter: Marth

Description: You must defeat a Level 8 CPU Link as Marth. Link is very aggressive, but Marth's sword reach is longer, it's best to attempt to defeat Link in the caves below.

Difficulty: 8

42. Trouble King 2
Charachter: Luigi

Description: As normal sized Luigi, you must defeat a Level 8 CPU Bowser with a permanent super mushroom in Poke Floats. Plus it seems that you're set to a handicap of 5. The best way to KO him twice is to knock him off of the Squirtle arm while staying put. Not as tough as it seems.

Difficulty: 6

43. Birds of Prey
Charachter: Fox

Description: You're pitted against a Level 8 Falco and Captain Falcon in the ever moving Big Blue arena. Your best bet is hoping for them to suicide since they outclass you in all areas except speed.

Difficulty: 9

44. Mewtwo Strikes!
Charachter: Select

Description: At first it'll look like you're battling Zelda, but then after a few seconds, Mewtwo will appear. Don't KO Zelda or you'll lose the match. Sometimes Mewtwo will stupidly walk off of the left side of the arena and suicide.

Difficulty: 8

45. Game and Watch Forever!
Charachter: Mr. Game and Watch

Description: With 3 lives, you must defeat 25 Level 7 CPU Mr. Game and Watches, but a single smash attack from either side will KO you or your opponent. Use this to your advantage and smash them into oblivion as soon as they appear.

Difficulty: 5

46. Fire Emblen Pride
Charachter: Select

Description: Defeat both Marth and Roy who are set to Level 8 CPU. This actually is annoyingly tough. The best strategy is to attack with projectiles or aerially.

Difficulty: 9

47. Trophy Tussle 3
Charachter: Select

Description: Fight 3 random Level 9 CPU charachters on top of Majora's Mask. Unlike previous matches, friendly fire is turned OFF here, meaning it's a true 3 on 1 match.

Difficulty: 10

48. Pikachu and Pichu
Charachter: Select

Description: Defeat two Level 8 Pichus with a Pikachu protecting it. Ignore the Pikachu, since it has infinate lives. Just KO both Pichus. Use a heavy, but fast charachter or your best charachter.

Difficulty: 5

49. All-Star Match Deluxe
Charachter: Select

Description: Fight Level 8 Dr. Mario, Falco, Roy, Young Link, Pichu, and Ganondorf using two lives. Not exactly easy since not only is it the toughest match but also the longest All-Star match.

Difficulty: 9

50. Final Destination Match
Charachter: Select

Description: Fight Master Hand and Crazy Hand at 300 HP who are set to Very Hard Mode difficulty with one life. The people who designed this level were sadistic in doing so. However this is not the toughest Event Match, but it will take awhile to beat.

Difficulty: 10+

51. The Showdown
Charachter: Select

Description: Fight a downright ruthless Level 9 Giga Bowser, and a Level 9 Ganondorf and Mewtwo. Take out Giga Boswer first, and then work on Mewtwo and Ganondorf.

Difficulty: 10+++++++++++++++++
