Just got the game on the 20th, and followed tips that I've read on here and just finished getting the last custom move about an hour ago. I had time to do other stuff outside of smash too. Here's some specs from the game, I also spent a bit of time doing some of the challenges, I'm at 93/140 last I checked.
Power Time: 75:10
Solo Play Time (ie. Classic, Crazy Orders, etc): 21:22
Group Play Time: 00:56
Classic times cleared: 37 (90%~ clear rate, mostly on difficulty 6-7)
All Star times cleared: 10 (mostly on hard, lost over double midway)
Smash Tour Play Time: 1:58
Crazy Orders, times played: 95
Crazy Orders, times cleared: 8 (lol, 90% of the time died on turn 20-30)
Trophy Rush: maybe like 100 times or something (the last 10 customs were took about 25 clears, I went from 35k to 17k gold)
So my advice is to play classic up until you can get the 3 equipment: Homerun Bat, Quick Batter, First Striker. I wanted to get it for fox but I ended up getting it on Mario so I just got his fast fireball custom and grinded crazy orders from there.
Once you start doing crazy orders; metal battle and giant battle are easiest, followed by FFA, just keep grinding up until you have half to 2/3rds of the customs, and then what you do is map out whos left missing customs still and focus on selecting their icons on the tickets in crazy orders (priority of characters w/ least collected customs to most collected). Soon, you'll find that you're collecting more homerun bat, quick batter, and first striker equipment for other characters, you can use those characters as well in crazy orders to speed up collecting their customs.
From what it felt like, playing a certain character boosted the chance of you getting their custom as long as you select their icon (ex. playing as mario, select the mushroom instead of triforce). Also, when you select an icon, note who's being featured as the opponent/ally, it's likely their custom you may end up getting (ex. Giant Battle, Fire emblem icon, enemy = lucina would be more likely than not to be a lucina custom)
Remember there are some unlockable customs in the challenges. Once I got down to my last 10 customs to grind, I just went to trophy rush and selected the characters who were still missing them.
Hopefully this can raise awareness on unlocking customs, I'm all for custom ON tourneys. Good luck grinding out there guys!
