Okay, I'll do what I should have done from the start and write up a few example battles..that is by far the easiest way to explain how this stuff works. My apologies for the clumsy way I write out rules.
Mario vs Kirby
Mario's set up - 1/2/3
Kirby's set up - 1/3/2
Clash 1
Mario uses Super Jump Attack - 5 power
Kirby uses Kirby Inhale - 6 power +1 = 7 power
Kirby Inhale is a normal type which gets a +1 bonus against Mario's brawler type move.
Kirby wins the first clash.
Clash 2
Mario uses Fire Flower Frenzy - 5 power
Kirby uses Hammer Swing - 5 power
Mario's fire type move and Kirby's Weapon type move are on opposite sides of the class match up chart and so no one gets any bonuses.
The clash ends in a draw.
Clash 3
Mario uses Triple Jump - 5 power +1 = 6 power
Kirby uses Final Cutter - 4 power
Mario's Normal type move gets a +1 bonus against Kirby's Weapon type move.
Mario wins the clash.
Results
Kirby and Mario both won a single clash each so the match ends in a draw. In order to determine a winner in this situation we look at the difference between points. Kirby won the first clash with a difference of 2 points. Mario won the third clash with a difference of 2 points..so..I chose a great example here didn't I...-__-..they are still in a draw situation. In this situation we roll a dice for each player..the player with the higher score wins the battle!

Results
Pretty interesting battle..but the overall result has to come down to a dice roll. All three starting characters are pretty averaged out so I was expecting a few draw situations between them..however..there are multiple set ups you can use for each character which would change everything..and also your choice of character in the first place would be a major factor in who wins so things do balance out.

Results
Mario wins! If Mario had used 2/1/3 instead of 1/2/3 however the results would have been rather different.
The more characters you unlock the greater variety there will be in battles and strategy. It's a bit like playing rock, paper, scissors..you need to try to figure out how your opponent will play their moves and act accordingly.
Nintendo Cult!
So long and thanks for the memories.
