Substitutions is a theory being worked on by hampa, not currently in the game yet but. Yes that would come with the issue of people fighting matches for each other and switching off last second. (Account Sharing)
And it raises questions like who would get the Next Coins/QI the fighter who started the match or ended the match?
So until those things are figured out it'll remain a theory/concept rather a full thing. I'll update you on what he says.
But it is confirmed that a player can leave and come back to their place in a fight. (Unless the match has ran out of frames or someone DQ'd)

An IRL example I've always used to show this is a BJJ tournament (see picture) where there are multiple ongoing matches in the same space.
The benefits to this are pretty obvious but I'll still spell them out:
1. Knock out tournaments would play faster and look awesome as the number of dojos would go from 4 for the beginning fights, then 2 dojos for semifinals, and 1 dojo for the finals.
2. Clan servers would allow friends to play and talk simultaneously without having to wait in long queues.
3. Realistically this could only be applied to official mods like aikido/abd/wushi etc that have dojos that dont take up a lot of space.
matarika - wheter you think this is or isn't possible let me know if you think this is a cool idea
Interesting idea, the issue is the servers are very fragile things and can break down very easily if forced to handle too much information, (thats why there's an object limit for modmaking) but i'll talk to hampa about see what he says on the idea of implementing multiple match, servers.
Because currently servers can't handle more than 4 people fighting in a match. Even tho there are separate matches happening. if there are 4, two person fights happening in one sever, thats like 8 people fighting in a server, which is problematic.
