'''Mii Fighters'''  ({{ja|Miiファイター|Mii Faitā}}, ''Mii Fighter'') are three newcomers in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. They were confirmed alongside {{SSB4|Palutena}} and {{SSB4|Pac-Man}} during E3 2014 on June 10th, 2014. Three variations exist: the {{SSB4|Mii Brawler}}, who relies on physical combat, the {{SSB4|Mii Swordfighter}}, who relies on skilled sword combat, and the {{SSB4|Mii Gunner}}, who relies heavily on projectiles.

**Despite this, the character portraits of Mii Fighters will still be replaced with that of a generic Mii when used in [[Smash Run]]. Additionally, if one looks at the 3DS version's pause screen during a match with Miis present, the icons that represent those characters are represented by generic Miis as well, and in both versions, [[amiibo]] of Mii Fighters will show up as generic Miis when scanned on the character selection screen, although their portraits during matches will properly show them in their true appearance. These scenarios always occur regardless of which system the Miis originated from.

*As with the gender variants of {{SSB4|Wii Fit Trainer}}, {{SSB4|Robin}}, {{SSB4|Villager}}, and {{SSB4|Corrin}}, there are no gameplay/functional differences between male and female Mii Fighters whatsoever.

*A Mii Fighter's height and weight depend on what they are set to when the Mii in question was made in Mii Maker (a feature seen previously in ''Mario Kart Wii'' and ''Mario Kart 8''). Miis that are smaller in size are lighter, can jump higher, move faster (up to 1.2208x [[walking]] and [[dash]]ing, and 1.176x [[air speed]] for the shortest and thinnest Miis), and have less ending lag on their attacks, while larger Miis jump lower, have slower mobility (down to 0.817x walking and dashing, and 0.8455x air speed for the tallest and fattest Miis), have more ending lag on their attacks, and are more powerful, allowing them to benefit significantly from the new [[rage]] mechanic.

*Unlike most in-game uses of Miis, Mii Fighters are not tied to the original Mii data. Editing or deleting a Mii in Mii Maker will not affect any Mii Fighters based on that Mii. Due to this, it is possible to make separate Mii Fighters from the same Mii without having to edit the original.

In [[Multi-Man mode|Multi-Man Smash]], the '''Fighting Mii Team''' ({{ja|謎のMii軍団}}, ''Mysterious Mii Corps'') appears as an opposing horde of Mii Fighters with uniform height and weight. Like other [[enemy team]]s, they are weaker than standard characters, being unable to use special moves and have limited defenses. Each fighter wears a black uniform which differs slightly based on the Mii Fighter type, with a white 'M' logo and two of the letter 'i' on their limbs to spell 'Mii'. Any Mii on the player's system can appear as a Swordfighter, Brawler, or Gunner, regardless of what types of Mii Fighters have been created. They do not change their facial expressions in battle.

Mii Fighters have achieved among the worst results in tournament play, and suffered from the poorest representation among the cast, due to debates on their legality as well as their general unpopularity as characters. Some of the most notable Mii players include {{Sm|Dapuffster}}, who primarily mained the Mii Brawler; {{Sm|Nyani}}, who mained the Swordfighter; and {{Sm|Rom}}, who mained the Gunner.  
Mii Fighters have gotten among the worst results in tournament play, and arguably suffer from the poorest representation among the cast, due to debates on their legality (see below) as well as their general unpopularity as characters. Notable Mii players include {{Sm|Dapuffster}}, who primarily mained the Mii Brawler; {{Sm|Nyani}}, who mains the Swordfighter; and {{Sm|Rom}}, who mains the Gunner.  


The Mii Brawler is generally considered the best of the three Mii Fighters when customs are allowed, and was considered a potential high or even top tier with them. All Mii Fighters are considered considerably worse without access to their customs, and are generally regarded as low or even bottom tier characters when restricted to their "default" moveset, with all iterations of the [[Smash Back Room]]'s [[tier list]] ranking them as such until the final tier list, which didn't rank them at all due to their heavily disputed legality and their severe lack of tournament data.
The Mii Brawler is generally considered the best of the three Mii Fighters when customs are allowed, and is a potential high or even top tier with them. All Mii Fighters are considered considerably worse without access to their customs, and as the [[tier list]] currently does not recognize custom movesets in its ranking of characters, the Brawler ranks at 56th, Gunner at 54th, and Swordfighter at 57th.

With the universal ban on custom moves at major tournaments after [[EVO 2015]] and a playstyle that revolves around customisation, Mii Fighters have seen very little tournament usage. While most tournaments do allow for Mii Fighters to be used, varying rulesets have been featured for the characters that restrict them in some way.

*The Miis do not have to be Guest Miis, but their heights and weights cannot be changed. Players can use a variety of preset, specific movesets for the Miis, but these combinations cannot be modified, as part of the [[Official Custom Moveset Project]].

In spite of these rulesets, Mii legality remained a heated subject of debate throughout the rest of ''Smash 4''{{'}}s competitive life. As previously mentioned, custom moves are generally banned in competitive play, leading to this debate; some tournaments allow Miis to have full access to their custom moves, while others only allow for 1111 movesets. In smaller tournaments where custom moves are legal, there also existed debate as to what extent players can be allowed to modify the heights and weights of their Miis, though rarely did any tournaments allow size modification after the post-EVO 2015 custom moves ban.
