by Doc – Owner, Founder, Never Hosted a Spirits Amiibo Tournament Before
I’ve not historically been a fan of the spirits amiibo meta. Back in the days of Smash 4, the amiibo community had a sort of tunnel vision for the spirits meta, which was about as dry and boring as the Tic-Tac-Toe metagame. When the community largely switched to vanilla for Ultimate, I made it a point to promote vanilla amiibo tournaments in my content, and have done so consistently since Day 1.
Well, spirits is kinda cool too. It’s so cool that I hosted a spirits amiibo tournament, which you can watch here:
This tournament’s ruleset was simple:
- Incineroar Banned
- Baton Pass Format, Best of 3
- 1st amiibo limited to A+, 2nd amiibo limited to S under the January USAC amiibo tier list
- Big 5 Banned
I’d recommend watching the tournament before checking the bracket in the video’s description. You wouldn’t want to spoil it for yourself!

I have a question, how do you train an Amiibo to hold an item for long periods of time. Instead of them throwing it at the start of the game.

Oh, and also when they drop it, how do you make sure they pick it back up again?
