His user-friendly play with upside, longevity and healthy tournament performance make him one of the best characters in the game. One of his most fun moves is the “Egg Lay,” trapping opponents inside to rack up damage. As a very mobile heavyweight with an effective double jump, he is able to press a consistently balanced attack and recovery. Yoshi is a dinosaur of the series, appearing since the first iteration. He has excellent combo ability, and while his longevity isn’t fantastic, as he’s only been around as of recently, he beats Donkey Kong for king of the jungle. You simply can’t deny the hilarity of his "Banana Peel" move, which causes opponents to trip, leading to lethal smash attacks. “Donkey’s little nephew wannabe” has a great recovery in “Rocketbarrel boost,” in both its effectiveness and creativity. 4, and remained solid in Ultimate even after decreasing his weight. Diddy Kongĭiddy Kong became one of the statistically best characters in Super Smash Bros. SYFY WIRE Why isn't Yoshi in 'The Super Mario Bros. We love this fan favorite, but only because we’re playing as him. He can “headbutt” opponents into the ground, allowing him to punish them with KO moves like the “Giant Punch.” We’d say opponents will rip their hair out from his insane durability, but Donkey Kong’s “grapple,” carrying opponents on his back only to self-destruct off the side, should beat it to the punch. Statistically ranking in the mid tier most of the games, Donkey Kong is a big bruiser superheavyweight, but is surprisingly one of the fastest characters. We might be giving into Jack Black Bowser recency bias hype, so we’re sorry, but Bowser is too much fun not to give at least B-tier. Don’t count him Dry Bowser yet though, because his “Fire Breath,” “Meteor Smash” and “Flying Slam”, when landed, are sure to force opponents out of their shell. This makes him easy to combo with characters like, you guessed it, his arch nemesis Mario. He is easily punished when his attacks whiff or are blocked, as quicker characters can take advantage of his large hurtbox. Bowserīowser is the single heaviest character from Melee to Ultimate, and while that makes him difficult to knock past the edge, it comes with some clear drawbacks. While not as well rounded as his more.well rounded older brother, he does have a few devastating tricks up his sleeve like the "Luigi Cyclone" to break up combos and shift momentum in his favor. Luigi does offer a quirky twist on the classic gameplay that Mario is known for, and has been a staple since the first Super Smash Bros. Ness and Lucas “PK Fire” spammers: get ready to feast. Luigi’s personality is about as awkward as his gameplay, with low mobility, air speed and range on his attacks. Wario has strong stat lines across most of his games, and while some of his KO moves can be hard to land, everyone wants to take a ride with Wario and his “Wario Bike.” The special moves aren’t super beginner friendly, but the fun you’ll have along the way makes learning this character the bomb. Unfortunately his overall performance as a character, and bizarre lack of longevity land him lower than his pops. His “Abandon Ship!” move, where he jumps out of his car only to explode on his opponents below it, is somewhat effective, but more importantly, super fun. The Clown Car has a separate hurtbox, giving him heavyweight advantages along with a bowling ball attack perfect to land a strike. doesn’t make his first appearance until Super Smash Bros. Surprisingly, the Clown Car licensed Boswer Jr. Movie' is now the highest-grossing video game adaptation ever 9. However, beginners will struggle to find much value in Luma, viewing playing two characters at once as a distraction, leaving us no choice but to send them down our rankings. Special moves like the “Luma Shot” and “Grand Star” can send players off the platform at the speed of light. Introduced in the beloved game Super Mario Galaxy, a skilled player can use the unique dual characters Rosalina and Luma to overwhelm opponents with galaxy-brained game plans. The stronger, but considerably slower version of Mario may appeal somewhat to beginners, but it seems experts will be much too limited, making him a lackluster operation. Since then, his technical ability, combining tournament performance and overall gameplay, have been low. 4 (it’s hard to get over how lackluster that name is in comparison to the others). After appearing in Melee, he was surprisingly left out of Brawl, only to make a comeback in Super Smash Bros. Mario isn’t for someone without patients.
