Public opinion on Ganondorf during ''Ultimate''{{'}}s early metagame was high due to improvements to his flaws from previous games, with some players comparing him to his [[Ganondorf (SSBM)|''Melee'' self]]. This positive opinion was supported by {{Sm|Nairo}}'s surprise yet successful usage of the character against {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}} at {{Trn|Collision 2019}}, which led many players to believe that Ganondorf was viable, or at least better than what he was in the previous two games. | Public opinion on Ganondorf during ''Ultimate''{{'}}s early metagame was high due to improvements to his flaws from previous games, with some players comparing him to his [[Ganondorf (SSBM)|''Melee'' self]].

However, this positive perception did not last long as more players noted issues regarding his gameplay: he still has severe difficulty in approaching, recovering, and escaping disadvantage. Despite the buffs he received in the transition, his matchup spread remains atrocious, as most other characters from the previous game retained similar tools to overwhelm him, such as {{SSBU|Pikachu}}, {{SSBU|Palutena}}, and {{SSBU|Cloud}}. This was compounded with how Ganondorf mostly received minor changes in patches while other low-tier characters received significant buffs. As a result, Ganondorf's playerbase remains one of the smallest in the current metagame, with sporadic success seen from players such as {{Sm|Rickles}} in the early metagame and {{Sm|Komegura}} and {{Sm|Major}} in the post-online metagame.

Despite being significantly better than his ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4'' incarnations, Ganondorf is once again considered one of the worst characters in the game, and as such is ranked dead last on the current tier list. | ||
