Would you do any "amiibo tournaments" in Ultimate?

I was poking around the other day and realized there's still two amiibo websites that seem to be regularly updated, which made me wonder if this is still a thing. I doubt it, cause amiibo seem expensive, but hey there's something for everybody.

I bought my first two Amiibos last week (Lucina & Falco), those are cheap (~20$ total). Anyway, that would be funny to watch so why not?

Once all the smash bros amiibos have been released, I will pair them all up in one huge tournament to see who is the strongest. It will be called the Tournament of Power and any amiibo that loses gets thrown in the trash.

Might as well. I do have all 62 Smash 3DS/Wii U amiibo in card form (undecided if I'll do the same for the Smash Ultimate amiibo) so why not?

Sounds like something I would do. Can easily put them in a draft and line them up

Probably. It doesn't look like custom moves are going to return, so most of what made Mac a good amiibo is gone now.
Of course, it didn't help that most tournaments were on Omega stages (whose idea was that, anyway?).

Right, that's what I meant. When I did amiibo there were two rulesets, vanilla (no custom moves, no equipment, no bonus effects, nothing) and customs (custom moves, equipment, bonus effects, etc.). I had a brain fart moment.

That Bayo gif isn't representative of a lot of the rest of the cast: Bayonetta has her combos permanently programmed in, while (as far as I'm aware) no other amiibo can pull off a combo like that.

Most of them can't
Fox has some of his down throw followups but thats basically it.
Ryu has a bunch of combos but they aren't long like bayos

C Competitively do you do a lot of amiibo training? I've been out of Smash 4 training aside from some peripheral reading so I don't know quite everything there is yet.
