King K Rool hasn't been in a game for 10 years, guys. Mario Super Sluggers was his last appearance. Let that sink in. Don't ask what it wants.

Squad Strike is pretty much how my brother and I tried to use tourney, but now we don't have to worry about having our selected characters duel each other.

That has to be a new Story Mode they blurred. Saving that for another Smash Direct in November I’m assuming.

The option's green, like Smash Run and Smash Tour, and isn't tucked away under Games & More like how Adventure Mode was under Solo in previous games/Classic is under Game & More.
I might be wrong, but I don't think it'll be an Adventure Mode.

Why would they keep that mode a mystery? I don’t think people really care about that mode, so hyping mystery mode up only to reveal it as the one mode that got mixed reception is really not worth hiding.
 
Someone enhanced the image and manages to see the mode is called "Spirits". That's very vague though and hard to tell what it is from that name alone. But it's likely not exactly a return of Smash Run or Smash Tour. My guesses currently that it is some kind of take on an adventure mode that includes bosses and stuff. But kind of doubtful it's a big story mode of any kind on Subspace's level.
 
ey

Smash Run on Switch would be all the hype dude
 
I think a neat use of amiibo that don't have playable characters is scanning them gets you their trophy instantly, we already know Waluigi and Shovel Knight will have ones, so it makes sense, plus it can add stuff like Tiki and Chibi Robo to the game without making them playable.
 
- Simon Belmont is in, which means that one leaker was right. Also having two characters from one 3rd-party series is actually pretty significant. I wouldn't be surprised if Shadow gets revealed as a Sonic Echo later.
- Chrom and Dark Samus aren't very surprising choices for Echos. Oh yeah and Fire Emblem is now tied with Pokemon for 2nd place in number of reps (if you count Pokemon Trainer as one character). Hoo boy.
- That's a lot of stages, man. And all of them are available for 8-player Smash. I know a certain pair of users are happy about that...
- There's so much music; it's beautiful. I mean, with all that Splatoon music, I hope we're getting Tidal Rush! It was also a good call to make music from a series play at all stages from that series.
- It makes way more sense for Stamina to be with Stock and Time than where it was before.
- Final Smash Meter was unexpected and it reminds me of other fighting games. I wonder whether or not it will be used in the competitive scene?
- Shovel Knight is an Assist Trophy and that means my top 4 most wanted fighters are confirmed as Assists and I am officially dead inside.
- King K. Rool is lookin' pretty cool. That was a great trailer, and it looks like they're taking a lot of inspiration from his games for the moveset. The non-echo newcomer roster for this game is looking very strong (if not exactly appealing to my desires). It's just hit after hit with Inkling, Ridley, K. Rool, and to a slightly lesser degree, Simon Belmont.

Some people are saying that Spirits is a story mode where instead of collecting trophies, you’re collecting spirits. If it is Story Mode then that sounds like it could be a more enchanting and soothing story mode with elegant artistry that could make Terrence Malick Cream his pants instead of the dark broodiness that was Subspace Emissary.
