Kirby is a simple character suitable for beginners, and this can be observed in the versatility of his moveset. Many of his attacks are characterized by speed and combo ability, with some outliers trading those strengths for raw power. His [[jab]] and [[forward tilt]] are both fast and effective close-quarter attacks, while [[up tilt]] is a highly versatile attack which [[combo]]s into itself cleanly. Down tilt is weak, but its speed and [[Sakurai angle]] allow it to [[trip]] opponents consistently. His [[smash attack]]s are notably strong without being particularly slow, making them excellent finishing moves.

Kirby's grab game is similarly effective, as he boasts a fast [[grab]], an effective [[pummel]], and a set of useful [[throw]]s. His [[forward throw]] can cleanly fit into any part of a combo and enables Kirby to set up long and highly [[damage|damaging]] follow-ups, even a [[down aerial]] into a regrab. [[Back throw]] can KO on the ledge at high [[percentage]]s, and [[up throw]] can KO even earlier off the top (especially if he lands on a [[platform]] with it. Lastly, [[down throw]], while not especially useful overall, can rack up damage when no other throw can yield better results.

Complementing his six jumps, Kirby has effective [[aerial attack]]s as well. [[Neutral aerial]]'s long duration and short [[landing lag]] allow him to protect himself when landing, while [[forward aerial]] is an excellent all-around attack for combos, [[edgeguarding]], and KOing at high percentages. His [[back aerial]] takes that principle even further, being his fastest and strongest aerial. [[Up aerial]] is a standard attack for juggling and low-damage combos, allowing for many potential followups. Finally, his [[down aerial]], while slow, is a multi-hitting [[spike]] with low landing lag and generally little risk, making it a great tool for both edgeguarding and setups on grounded opponents.
