*Note3: It's now Feb 2020 and even with the Byleth update, this method still works. *Note2: If you find the "running around not necessary " it's most likely that you've already played other modes and built up you "in-battle distance." *Note1: if you stop encountering characters, do another 20-minute run battle as explained in the video.

Rip my fingers. Especially since my birthday's the 27th.

10/31/2022 The method still works. Here are the steps resumed in the video for thoses that didn't understand: 1. Edit a new ruleset with 1 stock, 20 minutes limit timer, no items & no stage hazard. 2. Play that ruleset on a stage like Battlefield, and run from one side to the other back and forth. When the timer reaches 30 seconds, kill your opponent. 3. You should get a "Challenger Approach" screen now, defeat it. 4. When you get back on the stage select menu in the game, close the game from the HOME menu and reopen it. 5. Play the ruleset again, but this time, just SD (Self-Destruct). You should get a new "Challenger Approach" screen. 6. Repeat step 4 & 5 as long as you keep getting "Challenger Approach" screens. If not, repeat from step 2 to step 5.

Lmao. There's an easier way. As soon as you have a challenger approaching screen beat that character. As soon as the screen comes up that shows the character you just unlocked close the game down. Start it back up create a stock match with one life. Start the match and suicide. Another new challenger will approach repeat the earlier steps. Can do this over and over and over. No need for a ten minute match or wait time. And no need to change the language or any other goofy steps

For those that have trouble beating the challengers, if you go to games and more from the menu, in the lower right corner there will be a little yellow door that says challengers approach.

My experience with this method worked for the first 40 or something character I guess but then it stopped working after repeating the 20 minutes game. So I decided to work my way through classic mode and unlock characters that I desired according to the unlock chain. Eventually, while also playing some regular games in the Smash option, I unlocked all characters except for like 4 more characters in just 2 days! So don't be discouraged from trying this method while also enjoying some regular matches in between to hone your skills (as a newbie in smash) and playing the classic mode to unlock desired characters.

What about December, I'm getting a switch for Christmas and I will buy smash ultimate for it. AND I HATE GRINDING! So could you check plz

I feel like when Austin talk I feel like I’m in math class.

20 minutes methods still work on Switch OLED now. Thank you for making helpful video!!!

I used to only play on my frinds’s switches, and I mained bayonetta, so seeing how easy it was to unlock her fast here in only a few minutes (I had already unlocked sonic playing normally) was great so now I can really practice

Id reccommend using the mario bros arcade stage with no stage hazards, since you can run without changing direction

The method I had figured out was setting Classic Mode to the lowest difficulty so I could keep clearing it in under 4 minutes each time.

Your video helped me 5 years after, thank you

3 years later, this is still the best guide

I found a quicker way to do this. Do all the steps he says but when you run for 20 mins use fox. He can run fast and can save time on running,also any fast fighter. I use fox and ran for 7 mins and when I tried his method of killing yourself then battle then close out the game, I was able to get more than 21 characters with fox running for 7 mins. Tell me if this help go faster.

So using fox is 3 characters a minute, and there are 63 unlockable characters, I'm not counting the first 8 or dlc, so it would take about 21 minutes? Idk if that's right, but I'm gonna say about 30 minutes just using fox

9:40 you missed Lucas xD

Amazing video, still works June 2020 - thank you!

Thanks for the video man! Really helped me out!

9:06 this is my preferred way of doing it.

Thank you sooo much for this Tutorial I got every character thanks to you💪🏻💙

Best 3 hours I’ve ever spent grinding. Thanks for this one!

thx Austin John plays you helped me with this game it took me 1year without knowing what to do

Feb. 24, 2020! Still works thanks bro!!

Just confirmed the defeating the challenger and then reloading super smash bros still works in august 11th 2023!

I know this is probably well-knon by now but should be brought up in case it's missed... Pick Hazardless Mario Bros as your stage, it loops around so running off the edge will wrap you around to the other side, this way you can just hit the stick and hold it there for as long as you like and go do something else that doesn't need your attention

Checking in 2021 October 19th Sora just came out and I got a Nintendo switch oled had to start from scratch I can confirm doing the 20min method with sonic works do battle close it out rinse and repeat took me an hr thank you Austin John blessings to you brotha you’re an awesome content creator 🙏

In the distance part you can play smash for 20 minutes then when its up you will unlock ness then when your done go to the home menu press X then it restarts the 10 minute cool down. Then what you want to do is make it one stock but make it a rule time does not matter. And all you to do is to self destruct while SDing. Then the next character pops up when you defeat him or her keep doing it untill your done with the roster and have fun everyone.

Thank you so much for an actual accurate unlock guide!!

Worked for me! Currently unlocking as I type this, thanks

2-23-2024 - Still works! ~ Set time to 91 minutes, stage hazards off, one stock ~ Mario Bros stage, two controllers/Joycons ~ P2 jumps up a level, P1 start running on ground level ~ Tape down P1's control stick in direction of running ~ Take a nap. You deserve it. ~ Collect challenger, exit software, repeat on 1-stock SD match

Hey Austin. I just wanted to let you know it is possible to see the distance traveled. It’s in Vault > Records > Offline & Battle Arenas then you go down to Distance walked

Noice m8. Appreciate it my guy

You can also unlock characters by playing a bit of world of light

An AFK version I found was to play on the Mario Bros. map and tape down the joycon to a side so that the character was always running and being brought to the other side by the pipes.

It’s April 20th 2021 and can confirm this is still working. I just put the game in my switch for the first time today, only the original 8 characters were there- did exactly what Austin John said in the video and an hour and a half later I’m at 42 characters unlocked. Thank you sir!

I'm curios if I play the story mode, will I get the characters? Or should I do this method?

@goldcoinmountain

You will unlock them doing the story mode (world of light) but it’ll take you a heck of a lot longer. About 25-30 hours seems to be the consensus on that. This method is a heck of a lot quicker, but it’s ultimately up to you.
