I made a thread like this back in April, but it never really went anywhere. After completing my Smash Run mini-creation thread, I figured I'd take another shot at revising Classic Mode routes in Ultimate.

How does this thread work?
Similar to the other SmashBoards threads, I will give a prompt that anyone can respond to, say "Change Mario's Classic Mode route". Rounds will typically last until there stops being activity, and I will end the day when I have the time.

How each day works:
Before we move on to a character, I give you the following choice:
  1. Uproot an entire route and redo it from scratch
  2. Change just one thing about a particular existing route (whether it be changing a boss, changing the name, integrating DLC characters into base game characters' routes, etc.)
  3. Request that the route stay as is if you don't think changing it is necessary
What is necessary is when it comes to the first choice is:
  1. What the route's theme is
  2. What opponents and/or bosses a character fights on that route
  3. Which rounds the bonus game will be between, if necessary
  4. What special gimmick a particular character's route has, if necessary
  5. Picking a music track for each round and the credits
For an example, here's a template I made:
Route Name
What the route is about
Round
Opponent
Stage
Music
Notes
1​
2​
3​
4​
5​
6​
Bonus Game
Can be swapped with any other round depending on the context (:ultmegaman::ultryu::ultbayonetta:, for example)
Final Round​
A boss is usually fought here, but like with the bonus round, you can place the boss in another round depending on the context

After a while, we will vote on which of the submitted things should win. We'll handle ties with a SUDDEN DEATH day where the submission with the most votes wins.
