Super Smash Bros. Ingenuity/Smash Cards

Smash Cards are a new collectible object, first collectible in Super Smash Bros. Ingenuity as a replacement for Spirits. Smash Cards take on a similar approach to said Spirits in Smash Ultimate.
While they do not play a pivotal role in the game's Story Mode, they can be equipped in said Story Mode for help during challenges.
Cards are a more plentiful collectible than trophies are- while trophies only take on characters with physical roles in game (Fighters, Assists, and Bosses), Smash Cards cover a huge amount of Nintendo (and other) media, with obscure characters being given cards. Unlike Spirits, while they CAN be connected to your character for benefits, they take on a more "active" shot than passive, like Spirits. While more than 4 cards can be connected to your character (1 major, with 4 minor), they can only be used once at a time.
A Major card can be "played" once every round by pressing ZL, while a minor card can be played once a round by pressing ZR. Major cards are very effective but might have recoil, but Minor cards can be used more than once each every 30 seconds.
Minor cards can be set up in a row, and every time you use one minor card, the next one gets in line, the one you used going to the back of your deck. When playing a Minor card, you must wait 30 seconds before using the next card.
Like Spirits, both Major and Minor Smash Cards have their own "battles", themed after the card they hold. You must beat this character before earning their card. While not a huge part of the story mode, you can battle for Smash Cards to the side of the main adventure, through treasure doors and the such. You can also go to the "Card Arena" for a Spirit Board-similar experience, where random cards show up to battle. Minor cards can also be collected through 52 Pickup every 24 hours.
