Alternative Takes

Superb Meter
The Superb Meter is located underneath the player's health.

Superb Move
Each character has their own version of a superb attack that can be performed once the Superb Meter is fully charged. Superb Moves hit differently depending on the fighter that you have. A Superb Move is meant to do massive damage to the opponent.

Most Superb Moves are close range, but some can only hit at mid-range. Most Superb Moves can be blocked. Your character will usually have priority over most attacks while performing a Superb Move.

Plot
Bold, underlined text indicates fights.

Chapter One: Chaos
February 13, Nicktropolis, New York; 2033

It's the night before Valentine's Day and Ross is looking anxiously through the Nicktropolis Mall for the perfect gift for Tammy. John, Bagel, Web, and Wario are shown shopping in the same mall as well. Ross ultimately leaves the mall with a Snickers bar (which he stole), but no actual gift for his girlfriend. As he contemplates what to do, he is suddenly assaulted and knocked unconscious. He is dragged into a nearby alleyway where a man is heard saying, "We have the test subject."

February 14, Nicktropolis, New York; 2033

The Troll King is whistling the instrumental of " Don't Worry, Be Happy " as he plants several bombs throughout the tunnels of the freeway, thus preventing travel in and out of the city. The Troll King then triggers the explosives, and the actual song "Don't Worry, Be Happy" plays. In the Richmen Hills neighborhood of Nicktropolis, four villains oversee this explosion and recognize it as their cue.

As The Troll King begins causing mere chaos in Nicktropolis, General Red invades the Nicktropolis Elementary School, putting the lives of numerous children at risk. Determined to fight back, the third graders organize a plan to stop Red. The very first battle in the game introduces a Multi-Battle, pitting General Red against Hailey, Luthor, and Jessie.

Easter eggs

 * Nick, in addition to being a playable character, is also a cameo in every single stage except Good Boy Corporation.
 * A silhouette is watching the players fight in the stage Good Boy Corporation. It is not Nick, as the silhouette's structure is not similar to his. This figure has been the subject of various creepypastas.

Trivia

 * The song played during The Ultimate Entity's trailer, Can't Play Dead, somewhat describes her.
