Zero Suit Samus' [[punishment]] potential is also one of the greatest among the cast, courtesy of her fast and nimble mobility, a [[paralyze|paralyzing]] [[projectile]] in [[Paralyzer]], and a potent combo game that can quickly rack up damage or even KO outright. In addition, she possesses a long-distanced and varied recovery, thanks to having two [[Tether recovery|tether recoveries]], a third jump in [[Flip Jump]] and her new up special, [[Boost Kick]]. This makes her recovery hard to intercept as it's unpredictable and can be very deadly. Her aerial moves possess enough power to KO rather early as if she was a heavyweight especially Boost Kick and Flip Kick. | Zero Suit Samus' [[punishment]] potential is also one of the greatest among the cast, courtesy of her fast and nimble mobility, a [[paralyze|paralyzing]] [[projectile]] in [[Paralyzer]], and a potent combo game that can quickly rack up damage or even KO outright.

Although she has outstanding strengths, Zero Suit Samus | Although she has outstanding strengths, Zero Suit Samus nevertheless has some noticeable weaknesses. Her ground game is unimpressive compared to her air game, which is most evident with her grab game: her grabs' long ranges are offset by their extreme amounts of start-up and ending lag, while her forward, back and up throws have very minimal utility outside of dealing damage. Most of her ground moves also lack KO potential. Her only ground move that truly has KO potential is her forward smash. Even so, it is one of the weakest smash attacks in the game. The rest of her ground moves require very high percents or rely on edgeguarding to score a KO. | ||
By extension, many of Zero Suit Samus' attacks contain hitboxes that are positioned high above the ground, which can make it very difficult for her to fight against small characters. Even though Zero Suit Samus' air game is excellent, none of her aerials are effective combo breakers, which is further compounded by her susceptibility to combos. Altogether, these traits give Zero Suit Samus a weak [[neutral game]]. | By extension, many of Zero Suit Samus' attacks contain hitboxes that are positioned high above the ground, which can make it very difficult for her to fight against small characters.
