Super Smash Stadium

Super Smash Stadium by the SSS Superpowers (or SPs for short) is a fanfiction based on the Super Smash Bros series. The plot focuses on the titular stadium and the fights shown at the stadium as though it were a promotion complete with commentary. There are currently five seasons consisting of more than 100 matches. Each season has an underlining plot to it.

One of the last active Script Fics from the era when Script Fics were common, it actually started out in prose but turned into one soon after because of the usefulness of color commentary. Notably, during its adaptation of Subspace Emissary, it reverted back to prose.

Here's the link to it. The Current SPs are Metal Man (Head SP), Digifanatic, Light Bear, Terri, Escomanivero Deisedarah, and Yesman. Past SPs were Kyle Orland, VGW (Former Head SP), Prince Lemmy Koopa, Patrick VanDusen, Lugia/Zer (Former Head SP), Canadian Yosheh, Goshi, Sir Tomintul, Knight9910, Lord Reid, SwordBlade, Great Saiyaman, and Game Guru (Former Head SP).

Super Smash Stadium provides examples of the following tropes:

Old SSS (Seasons 1-5)

• All There in the Manual: To understand the plot of Season 2, one must read the supplementary story Ganna Legacy
• Alternate Universe: Implied with the crossovers and Toon Link
• Alternate Universe Fic: The actual video game characters are fighting rather than dolls or trophies of them.
• Arc Welding: Both Season 2 & 3 suffer from this, though nearly every Aborted Arc has been cleared up by Season 4.
• Artifact Title: The titular stadium ended up being the first place captured in the Subspace Emissary Arc.
• Author Avatar: The SPs
• Back From the Dead: Lampshaded with Ash
• Butt Monkey: Boshi, Link
• Cast Herd
• Corrupt Corporate Executive: Powers, Tai
• Crossover: With Neglected Mario Characters BOTVGH SSB Arena, and Super Smash Quest
• Cutting Off the Branches: The Subspace Emissary Adaptation has Kirby able to save only Peach.
• The Danza: Two of the Superpowers (This Troper is one of them) are named after the people who represent them.
• Ensemble Darkhorse: Killer
• Everything's Better with Plushies: 175
• Executive Meddling: Led to many aborted arcs as matches were deleted or replaced. In particular Zer, the Head SP of Season 3 was opposed to large story arcs, believing them to be the cause of Season 2's problems, and aborted any and all arcs pretty much immediately, leaving the other SPs to make up a story at the last minute after he disappeared.
• Gratuitous French & Gratuitous Japanese: Averted, as any use of another language is used in the proper context. Mostly treated as if it were 'subtitled' or left as an action.
• Go-Karting with Bowser
• Groundhog Day Loop
• Heroic Sacrifice: Sir Tomintul
• Hijacked by Ganon
• Killed Off for Real
• Loads and Loads of Characters
• Medium Awareness
• Mega Crossover: It is based on Super Smash Bros after all.
• Metal Gearing
• Milestone Celebration: Match #100
• Missing Episode: Match #67, and Chapters 1, 8, 9, and 13 of Ganna Legacy. The SPs hang lampshades on it. Match 67 was eventually rewritten, along with a lampshade of its own.
• My Name Is Not Durwood: Bowser, Game Guru
• No Ontological Inertia: One of the few consistent rules of Time Travel.
• Old Shame: Some of the SPs consider this as one of them.
• Original Character
• Painting the Fourth Wall

• Round Robin
• Running Gag: Knight's Manboobs

• Tournament Arc: Even-numbered seasons
• With Great Power Comes Great Insanity
