A '''character matchup''', or a '''counter''', is a prediction on how two characters would fare against each other in [[Tournament Legal|tournament settings]]. For example, the matchup between [[Meta Knight (SSBB)|Meta Knight]] and [[Peach (SSBB)|Peach]] favors Meta Knight. This list does not mean that a character has no chance of beating another character in any match, or that players cannot beat a certain character while using any certain character. In addition, this chart does not directly affect tier rankings, nor is it influenced by a character's tier ranking. It simply shows what the general outcome would be if two players with the exact same skill level played each other and used specific characters.

A '''character matchup''', or a '''[[counter (matchup)|counter]]''', is a prediction on how two characters would fare against each other in [[Tournament legal (SSBB)|tournament settings]]. For example, the matchup between {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} and {{SSBB|Samus}} favors Meta Knight, while the matchup between {{SSBB|Olimar}} and {{SSBB|Ness}} is (mostly) even. This list does not mean that a character has no chance of beating another character in any match, or that players cannot beat a certain character while using any certain character. In addition, this chart does not directly affect tier rankings, nor is it influenced by a character's tier ranking.

Below is a chart for [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] obtained from Smash World Forums. The chart is incomplete because the information was taken from various character boards on [[Smash World Forums|Smash Boards]], and not all character boards have completed their matchup discussions. The chart is subject to change and current as of April 8th, 2010. To use it, choose a character from the left side. That character's matchups are displayed in the corresponding row. Since the "think tanks" of the two characters may not agree, there may be a slightly different number listed as the opposite matchup.
Below is the [[Smash Back Room|BBR]]'s official chart for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' version 3.0. The chart is current as of July 9th, 2013 with a wholesale new version stated to be "extremely unlikely", though there is intent for a new process to update specific matchups instead of the entire chart. To use it, choose a character from the left side. That character's matchups are displayed in the corresponding row.
