Spring Stadium (スプリングスタジアム,Spring Stadium) is adownloadable stage forSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate. It is bundled withMin Min in Challenger Pack 6, which is also part of theFighters Pass Vol. 2 and was released on June 29, 2020.
Stage overview[edit]
This stage is set on a flat, floatinghard platform in the middle of an arena-like stadium with a singlesoft platform floating above it. Occasionally the floating platform and the edges of the main platform will become trampolines, with the ones on the edges being slanted towards the center of the stage. Small trampolines will also occasionally appear beside the main platform that will automatically launch fighters upward when landed upon. Items that land on trampolines will bounce. There are also two arches above the stage that act asceilings. Uniquely, the arches are only solid on the bottom sides; therefore, fighters launched above the ceilings are able to fall back through. If items are turned on,ARMS Drones will occasionally carry items onto the stage.
If a fighter performs a fulljump while standing on a trampoline, they will have a second 2framejump squat, be launched upwards, and have 6 frames ofintangibility starting on the additional jump squat frames. Performing ashort hop on the trampolines will not launch the fighter. Fighters that land on the small trampolines away from the main platform will automatically be launched (with the aforementioned 2 frame jump squat and intangibility). Launched fighters will deal damage to any opponent in the way, dealing 21% (sweetspot)/19% (sourspot) on frames 1-2, 16% on frames 3-10, and 8% on frames 11-15.
The background consists of a cheering audience of both Spring Man fans and Min Min fans dressed inSmash Bros.-themed t-shirts, as well as a screen display. This display shows off visuals representing every playable character inARMS.
Ω form and Battlefield form[edit]
The main platform of theΩ form andBattlefield form is identical to how it appears in the normal form; however, it is resized and reshaped to matchFinal Destination andBattlefield, respectively. The trampolines on both ledges are also absent. The threesoft platforms of the Battlefield form resemble the floating soft platform of the normal form and do not become trampolines. The ceilings above the stage are removed, as well as the other arches in the background. The occasional trampolines that appear to the side of the stage also do not appear.
Hazards off[edit]
With hazards off, the trampolines on the stage never activate. The small floating trampolines on either side do not appear, and neither do ARMS Drones. The arches that act as ceilings are still present.
Origin[edit]
Spring Stadium is a stage inARMS that is owned and operated by the Spring Gym, and it is the home stage ofSpring Man. InARMS, Spring Stadium is a square, mostly flat stage with trampolines along the perimeter that can be used to jump on for height and bounce opponents off of. InUltimate, the overall design of Spring Stadium is mostly retained; however, rather than being set on the ground, the stage is set on a floating platform in the middle of the arena with trampolines on the edges that fighters can use to jump off of.
InARMS, if items are turned on, drones will randomly spawn carrying items that either deal damage to opponents or heal the user. InUltimate, these drones also randomly spawn carrying items if items are on.
Tournament legality[edit]
Spring Stadium has often been banned in tournaments due to the ceiling arches that can beteched off of; they can cause longer survivability and interrupt combos, and are not disabled when stage hazards are turned off. Despite this, it has seen some rare usage in online tournaments, as it has a fairly neutral layout.
Update history[edit]
- The display for Spring Man on Spring Stadium's electronic billboard now properly shows his "S" logo, fixing an error with the stage on launch where it mistakenly used Springtron's "T" logo instead.

Trivia[edit]
- Spring Stadium is one of four stages in theSuper Smash Bros. series to originate from a fighting game other thanSmash itself, with the others beingSuzaku Castle,King of Fighters Stadium, andMishima Dojo.
- AlthoughMin Min is a fighter andSpring Man is not, the stage is the home stage of the latter. Min Min's home stage inARMS isRamen Bowl.

- However, using aspirit with Screw Attack Equipped can bypass this. Using a trampoline with a Screw Attack results in a normal Screw Attack jump.

- IfSteve is mining on a trampoline and jumps, he won't be launched.
- The Assist Trophies that can't be summoned areArcade Bunny,Devil, andMoon. Additionally,Lunala can't be summoned.
- Spring Stadium is the only DLC stage that uses aCrate design aside from the Normal one, being the Futuristic design.
- Rarely, theBeam Sword will appear slanted at a 45 degree angle on the ground if it bounces off a trampoline and onto normal ground.
- Of all the 15 ARMS fighters appearing in the jumbotron, Spring Man is the only character to have two different colors as opposed to having one color for the other fighters; being blue and red.
