Match Expansion

The supplied beginner sources describe matches beginning with a smaller active group and expanding through battle events, including wall splats and stage transitions. Team members share the team health structure described by the source material.

Assemble Counter And Crossover

Assemble Counter is an evasive counter option from neutral. Crossover calls a teammate while blocking to interrupt pressure. Practice both in Startup Battle before relying on them in online matches.

Practice Drill

One role, one purpose

Choose one Shooter or Vertical assist. Play ten training exchanges and call it only for its documented purpose. Do not call it on cooldown without checking the opponent's position.

Next Steps

Build a lineup in Team Building, then add offense in Combo Basics.
