* SkillGateCharacter: Shaggy is designed to be easy for new players to pick up and quickly learn about the game's various mechanics, which means he doesn't excel in any significant way. He has some decently powerful moves (especially if powered up), but they're all fairly predictable, so experienced players can easily punish them. It also doesn't help that a common strategy among Shaggy players is jumping into the air and then charge neutral special, something that can be stopped by a decently fast or air-centric character.

* HyperspaceArsenal: Despite having no pockets, Tom can somehow produce a tennis racket, an [[FryingPanOfDoom iron pan]], multiple rockets, a fishing rod, a MouseTrap (cheese included), a [[BratsWithSlingshots slingshot]], and a [[DropTheHammer mallet]]. That's not even getting into Jerry producing a wine bottle ''bigger'' than him out of nowhere.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: When winning a match against Bugs Bunny, Marvin occasionally tells him that maybe he'll actually be invited to his basketball team next time. He would later receive two Tune Squad skins (his referee outfit from the original ''WesternAnimation/SpaceJam'' and the uniform from ''[[Film/SpaceJamANewLegacy A New Legacy]]'') during the [=ValentiNeon=] event.

** Batman's neutral dodge has him recreate the cover of ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries''.
** For a single frame of his forward air attack, Batman becomes silhouetted and [[https://www.reddit.com/r/batman/comments/wc56yi/the_dark_knight_returns_reference_in_multiversus/ does a pose]] closely resembling the pose he does on the cover of ''ComicBook/BatmanTheDarkKnightReturns''.
** Batman's "Samurai" costume is very similar to his appearance from ''Anime/BatmanNinja''.
** One of Batman's alternate costumes is his ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' appearance.
** One of Batman's intros has him say [[Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice "Tell me, do you bleed?"]].
** When selected on the character select screen, Batman will sometimes say [[Film/BatmanBegins "It's not who we are underneath, it's what we do that defines us."]][[note]]It's a paraphrase of the original quote, using "we" and "us" instead of "you" or "I", but the reference is still obvious.[[/note]]
** Another voiceline Batman says on the character selection screen is "Our foes are a superstitious and cowardly lot.", alluding to his famous declaration of criminals being like that all the way back in Detective Comics #33.

* IAteWhat: Inverted. Upon knocking out an enemy, Arya will spawn an oversized pie, which can be "eaten" by the enemies, healing them but also applying a "Slow" debuff. ''[=GoT=]'' viewers will recognize the reference [[spoiler:to the infamous, [[AssholeVictim yet satisfying]] [[FamilialCannibalismSurprise Frey pie scene]]]], which has rather [[AutoCannibalism dark implications for]] [[TheSecretOfLongPorkPies the fillings of the pie]] that Arya spawns...

* MythologyGag:
** Ayra's Waterdancing variant is the outfit she wears when [[Recap/GameOfThronesS1E3LordSnow she first practiced the Waterdancing technique]].
** Her "Dress" variant is based on her first appearance in the beginning of Game of Thrones.
** When faced against Rick, Arya remarks that she loves to [[Recap/GameOfThronesS6E10TheWindsOfWinter put a disgusting old man in his proper place]].


Added DiffLines:

* MythologyGag:
** BMO's attack is the BMO Chop, which refers to a short gag in "Card Wars".
** Finn's taunt has him do his "tough tootin' baby" dance, seen in Season 3's "Memory of a Memory".
** Finn's Ugly Sweater variant comes from the ChristmasEpisode "Holly Jolly Secrets: Part 1".


Added DiffLines:

* MythologyGag: Fern's animation when selected on the character select screen starts with him photosynthesizing like he does at the beginning of "Whispers".

* MythologyGag:
** [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/harley_mv.png Harley's default design]] is based on ''ComicBook/DCRebirth''.
** The first of Harley's costumes to be available in the public beta is her classic jester outfit from ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' (with the costume even being officially named "Mad Love", after her famous OriginsEpisode).
** Harley's third has her don her Task Force X outfit from ''Film/TheSuicideSquad''.


Added DiffLines:

* MythologyGag:
** Marvin's pistol appears to be a [[CompositeCharacter combination]] of all his various weapons he's had over the years. His neutral attack, where he fires a bubble, comes from ''Film/LooneyTunesBackInAction'', he uses the Time-Space Gun from ''Mad as a Mars Hare'' for his side-special, and his disintegration ray comes from ''WesternAnimation/DuckDodgersInTheTwentyFourthAndAHalfCentury''.
** Marvin does a high kick for both his grounded and aerial side attacks. This is the same kick he does to K-9 in his [[WesternAnimation/HaredevilHare debut short]].
** Marvin's flag is used a lot, showing up as a part of his victory animation, one of his taunts, his down special, and even his wall cling animation. This is likely referencing the RunningGag in Marvin's shorts in ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunesCartoons'', where he is constantly trying (and failing) to claim a planet for Mars by planting down his flag.
*** The Spaceship that he summons for his up-special is also based on his ship from the show.
** Marvin's default design appears to draw inspiration from his design from modern ''Looney Tunes'' cartoons, as based on his eyes being extremely close to one another, the off-yellow coloring of his gloves, and the red dots on his shoes.
** Marvin's first variant has him appear as "Martian Commander X-2", the role he dons in ''WesternAnimation/DuckDodgers''.
** In the Valentine's Day event, he got two new variants pulling from his referee clothing from the original ''Space Jam'' and his own blue jersey from ''Film/SpaceJamANewLegacy'' respectively.
** If Marvin wins a match against Bugs Bunny, he might say "Maybe next time you'll invite me to be on your basketball team!" In both the original ''Film/SpaceJam'' and its [[Film/SpaceJamANewLegacy sequel]], Marvin was not a player of the Tune Squad, either acting as referee or being a RunningGag.
** Another one of his victory lines has Marvin steal [[WesternAnimation/PorkyPig Porky Pig's]] catchphrase "That's All Folks", even mimicking his iconic stutter.


Added DiffLines:

* MythologyGag:
** Stripe's down special has him summon some dynamite and then bite into it, blowing himself up. While this generally references the self-destructive nature of the Gremlins, the way Stripe is blasted into the air brings to mind how the majority of the Gremlins were blown to kingdom come near the end of the original film.
** Stripe wields many of the various weapons he used to try to kill Billy in the movie, including a sawblade, a chainsaw, and most notably, a gun.[[note]]In the film, he had an actual gun, while in the game, it's stated he's using a [[AdaptationalWeaponSwap toy]].[[/note]]
** On the character select screen, Stripe pops out of the [[PupatingPeril cocoon]] that are made when ''mogwai'' turn into Gremlins.
** Stripe will sometimes blurt out "Merry Christmas!". This references the gremlins' rampage occurring during Christmas, in the original ''Film/{{Gremlins}}''.
