Bomb blasts abound in next Super Smash Bros. Ultimate online tournament event

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate‘s newest online Event Tourney theme promises explosive outcomes as it features fighters and items that specialize in sparking savage stock losses. The event is available now until Sunday, April 18 at 11pm.

Appropriately titled “Handle With Care,” this time-based tournament limits participants to 14 fighters, selected for their incendiary capabilities. Paired with a shortlist of items prone to “go boom” (including Bombchus, Bob-ombs, and Blast Boxes), players will need to be on their guard to advance to the top and win better Spirits.

The full list of available fighters includes:

  • Link
  • Young Link
  • Toon Link
  • Sheik
  • Inkling
  • Samus
  • Dark Samus
  • Snake
  • Mega Man
  • Steve
  • Bowser Jr.
  • Duck Hunt
  • Banjo & Kazooie
  • Mii Gunner

Event Tourneys are scheduled online tournaments based around a specific varying theme. They are active concurrent to regular one-on-one and Smash Tourneys, are usually timed battles instead of stock, and typically allow items and Final Smash Meters that the regular tourneys do not.
