Chester's Choice is one of the three different game types that can be found in a Showdown match.

Hosted by Chester himself, Chester's Choice is accessed in the options menu when setting up a match in Battle Mode; unlike a regular Treasure Clash or Showdown match, a match in Chester's Choice is completely left to chance. It can either be a last standing duel or a loot collecting match, in any of the previously unlocked stages, with various modifier events exclusive to this type of match. These events can radically change the flow of battle, such as introducing giant opponents or gusts of wind. Sometimes matches are even surprisingly turned in team matches, with up to two CPU players will be added to make up the numbers.

Events[]
