Home stage

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, stages and characters are not matched one-to-one like they are in Melee. What follows is a list of home stages based on where characters are fought in Classic Mode and All-Star Mode, almost always based on a character's universe. The only exception is ROB, who has no stage from his universe. Because of this, he has no true home stage, though as he is fought at Mario Bros in Classic and All Star modes, while Mario characters are never fought there in those modes, that stage can be considered his.

As was the case with the Past Stages in Brawl and Melee, stages returning from that game are now seen in Classic Mode, unlike Brawl's Past Stages. This leads to the fact that Halberd is sometimes seen in Classic Mode, and sometimes Green Greens will be seen instead, and the Kirby series is randomly fought in Classic Mode.
