what's going on everyone i'm matt and
welcome back to gold coin mountain
notice no hat today and no i do not have
any hair
so what i wanted to do today was show
you guys a little trick to unlocking
characters as fast as possible
in smash bros ultimate i wanted this
because i usually play with my kids i
want all of us to pretty much
have the full roster at our disposal so
i went to
looking at youtube and went looking at
tried a couple things and they didn't
really work and then i came across a
couple reddit posts
that had the suggestion and i also saw
um austin john plays video on this topic
and those were pretty helpful but i'm
gonna go through the way that i did it
so you guys can see how to do it
and hopefully it works out for you too
so go into smash you're going to create
a new rule set
set it for 20 minutes so you're going to
come down to advanced
you're going to turn stage hazards off
stage morph off
and you're also going to have items off
all right and then you can save it you
can call it whatever you want
so once you get in here you're going to
want to pick well you can pick whatever
you want but i picked the uh
big battlefield here and i use sonic for
this
so what you're going to want to do is
you're going to want to add a second
player
and it does not matter at all who the
second player is
we'll just hit random you're gonna go
into the
match and you are literally just gonna
run back and forth
for 20 minutes i know that that sounds
boring it is boring
but it is well worth it if you want to
unlock the characters quickly
just run back and forth the whole time
the whole 20 minutes
so the theory is that there's a hidden
stat kept in this game
the distance that you travel
and when you do this for a while it adds
up and adds up and adds up
and then you can end up getting past the
10 minute cooldown
that you need to have a challenger
approach you when it gets to about 20
seconds left you can knock them off the
stage
and then right after you're done a
challenger
will approach so i'm up to lucas right
here is who i'm
with and i'm not very good with sonic
when you do that whether win or lose
you'll go back to the stage selection
screen here what you want to do
is hit your home button on your switch
completely close the game
and then go back into it so when it
loads back up you're gonna go back into
smash
you're gonna select a one stock rule set
you can pick the same battlefield that
you used before
and right here on this selection screen
i would pick someone that you're
comfortable with and that you think you
can beat a challenger with
so i'm gonna pick a link the computer
can be whoever it can be random it can
be whatever level it doesn't matter
and as soon as you're in literally just
kill yourself jump off the stage after
you go through all the stats and
everything
you will get a new foe has appeared
challenger approaching
and then if you beat the challenger or
if you don't beat the challenger
obviously he'll join the battle but when
you get back to the selection screen
do the same thing again close out
and then go back in and once you're back
in you just keep repeating that process
you go into a match with one stock you
jump off the edge against a random
computer
player after that it'll pop up say a
challenger has approached
and then you fight them and you can try
and unlock them this is the quickest way
that i've found to do it
last night i ended up unlocking 41
characters up from the original eight
that you start with
i think i did it in about i'll say 50
minutes or so
maybe an hour i'm not real good at the
game so you know it might take me a
little bit longer than some of you
but uh yeah this is this is the easiest
way i've found to do this
so let me know down in the comments if
it worked for you i hope it does
it worked for me after i tried numerous
different options and
those didn't work but i finally found
this one and i'm unlocking characters at
a
pretty solid rate that's all i got for
