Swordplay

Swordplay is one of 12 games available to play in Wii Sports Resort. Taking advantage of the Wii MotionPlus, the main mechanic of the game is using your Wii Remote like a sword to hit an opponent/opponents. There are 3 variations of the game.

Duel
The objective of the Duel is to knock your opponent off the high-rise platform. It is played in a two-out-of-three style match. If both fighters are unable to knock each other off then the round is a tie. If the match is tied then the game goes to Sudden Death, where the playing field becomes extremely small. The stamps are: Met Your Match, Cliff Hanger, One-Hit Wonder, Straight to the Point, and Last Mii Standing. If you have beaten the champion,at the Mii selection, hold the 1 button. Then you can use Matt's purple sword to fight. Your skill should be around 1496-1500 to fight Matt.

Speed Slice
The objective of Speed Slice is to cut an object faster than your opponent. The referee (Matt) will toss an object at the player, and the player must cut that object in the specified direction before your opponent can. But if you are facing Matt in Speed Slice, the referee will be Ryan (shown dueling above). The level of the opponents is the same from Swordplay Duel.

Speed Slice Armors
They usually wear the same armor, but with a special slicing sword to slice things with.

Showdown
The objective of the Showdown is to defeat the oncoming horde of Miis. The player has three hearts, and must defeat the army of sword-wielding Miis without taking three hits. Each level has a Boss (Black Armored with Purple Sword) at the end of the level. They have three hearts and are hard to defeat (specially the latter ones). These are the list, the level in Swordplay Duel (and Speed Slice) and the picture of the Bosses from every level at Swordplay Showdown:

Non-Bosses
The Miis who aren't Bosses can come in five different colors of armors: Green, Gold , Pink , Purple or Black. It's always the same Miis who appear in determined stage and armor, and they always use a red sword. Or, in the Bosses's case, a purple sword.

Green Armor
The Miis that come in this color of armor are the easiest to defeat. They never defend themselves, and they delay to attack you. But at later levels, in which they rarely appear, they may be quick to attack. These Miis are most common in the early stages. They have one heart.

Gold Armor
The Miis that come in this color of armor are still not difficult to defeat, but they have a difference compared to the ones who wear green armor: they practically only defend themselves, still taking time to attack, Again, in more advanced stages, they can prioritize attack to defense. Miis with this armor are more common at initial and intermediate levels. They have one heart.

Pink Armor
The Miis that appear in this color of armor are more dangerous than the last two types. They defend themselves, change the direction of the defense just a little, and take time to attack. However, if you try to attack them while they defend themselves, and you are blocked, these Miis will counterattack right away. They start appear in stage 2 and become common at later stages, specially at the Reverse Stages. They have two hearts.

Purple Armor Thin

The behavior of these Miis is somewhat similar to that of those with Gold Armor at later stages. They tend to be more aggressive and attack more frequently than normal Purple Armored miis. They begin to appear in stage 12 and are somewhat common in the Reverse stages. They have two hearts, similar to miis who use purple armor.

Purple Armor
The behavior of these Miis is identical to those who use red armor, with one exception: they change the direction of their defense more often, making it easier for you to be blocked and counterattacked. They only begin to appear in the stage 6, becoming common in the Reverse Stages. They have two hearts.

Black Armor
Although these Miis are not Bosses, they behave exactly like one. Some of them have the same larger size of the Bosses. What sets them apart from a Boss is the color of the sword they use, which is red, just like all the Miis of the previous categories. They only begin to appear in stage 10 and even after that, they are somewhat rare. These Miis only appear in greater quantities in Beach Reverse and Volcano Reverse. They have three hearts.

Matt
Matt is the final and toughest Boss. He is bigger and angrier than the other Miis that wear Black Armor. The easiest way to defeat him is when he is in front of the Mii you are targeting. He is the toughest Boss because he is quick to attack and counterattack and even when you successfully block one of his attacks, he will try to block you, which is a characteristic given to Matt and Matt only.
