Playstyle
Tweek has a very methodical, punish-heavy style of playing with all his characters. This style has very clear strengths, like being able to kill very early when Tweek reads a panic option; however, it is also susceptible to strong defense in the neutral. Because Tweek often uses his character's high-risk-high-reward combo starters in neutral, he can frustrate himself when he does not get an early advantage. His switch to Bayonetta in Smash 4 saw an increase in consistency to his results as Bayonetta's Witch Twist is a strong, safe combo starter. His Cloud was infamous for refusing to use Limit on the first stock to preserve the movement and recovery buff and also potentially land an early kill on his opponent's second stock.

Throughout much of Ultimate's history, Tweek has shown great skill in a diverse range of the game's cast, able to take games off of top players with over seven different characters. This ability was so extreme that it enabled him to reach Grand Finals of EVO after maining only maining Pokemon Trainer for a couple of months. However, this same talent also led to a problem Tweek has now been known for, an inability to stay with a set character. Until finding his footing with Diddy Kong, Tweek had been known to sporadically counterpick his opponents with varying results, where at times it can be argued that if he consistently stuck with a single character he could have found better success.

With Diddy Kong, Tweek maintains an extremely execution-heavy playstyle, which relies on an overall patient gameplan, waiting for his opponent to make mistakes before unleashing an explosive punish game that is unique amongst Diddy Kong players. He is known for his incredible creativity with Banana Peel in all aspects of the game, whether it be ledge-trapping, edge-guarding, combos, or disadvantage, Tweek has taken the core aspect of Diddy's gameplan to a higher level.
