	Steve was voted #1 by 57 panelists and ranked in the top 5 on 66 ballots. He received a total score that was close to a perfect score of 10.5, leading to a bit of a discussion as to whether he should be in his own separate tier. Though North American and European panelists overwhelmingly considered Steve the best, only 64% of Japanese panelists thought so, while 21.4% ended up voting for Kazuya instead.

	Luigi's continued popularity in the competitive scene led him to rise into the top 10, while {{Sm\|Doramigi}}'s explosive performances and him ranking 1st in 2025 led to Min Min's rise just outside the top 5, with Japanese panelists overall placing Min Min behind Steve and Sonic. Owing to {{Sm\|Peabnut}}'s meteoric rise into a top 10-level player, Mega Man skyrocketed 21 spots, the most out of any other character. Likewise, Duck Hunt's results from {{Sm\|Jagabata}} and {{Sm\|zawg}} led the character to rise 10 spots. Japan had a notable effect on this tier list, as characters popular or had notable representatives in the region, such as Captain Falcon, Donkey Kong, Isabelle, and Robin, also had sizeable rises. Finally, Piranha Plant rose out of the D tier range due to {{Sm\|Sparg0}}'s surprising success with the character.

	The existence of a new console was confirmed on May 7, 2024 via a tweet written by Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa. Known in development by its codename '''Ounce''', information afterwards was scarce, though many leaks came out that later turned out to be true. The console was formally revealed on January 16, 2025 with a planned release date for that year. A [[Nintendo Direct]] then released on April 2, 2025, revealing its full specifications, release date, and pricing. Hands-on events were also held ahead of the console's release across the world throughout the months of April and May. While preorders started on April 9, 2025 worldwide, these were delayed in the United States until April 24th due to negative reception of hardware and software prices, as well as potential tariff implementations affecting prices further.

	Steve was voted #1 by 57 panelists and ranked in the top 5 on 66 ballots.

Though North American and European panelists overwhelmingly considered Steve the best, only 64% of Japanese panelists thought so, while 21.4% ended up voting for Kazuya instead.

	Luigi's continued popularity in the competitive scene led him to rise into the top 10, while {{Sm\|Doramigi}}'s explosive performances and him ranking 1st in 2025 led to Min Min's rise just outside the top 5, with ~~Japan~~ panelists overall placing Min Min behind Steve and Sonic. Owing to {{Sm\|Peabnut}}'s meteoric rise into a top 10-level player, Mega Man skyrocketed 21 spots, the most out of any other character. Likewise, Duck Hunt's results from {{Sm\|Jagabata}} and {{Sm\|zawg}} led the character to rise 10 spots. Japan had a notable effect on this tier list, as characters popular or had notable representatives in the region, such as Captain Falcon, Donkey Kong, Isabelle, and Robin, also had sizeable rises.

Lucario also dropped 9 spots, due to {{Sm\|Gachipi}} being the only notable representative at the highest level of competitive play, while also having mixed results at majors.

	However, Isabelle has numerous drawbacks. Some include poor offense, low [[damage]] output, sluggish movement, low [[weight]], a slow [[grab]], and a difficulty in closing [[stock]]s. In addition, both [[Lloid Trap]] and [[Fishing Rod]] have significant flaws that hinder their reliability. Isabelle’s Lloid Trap can be easily destroyed by many characters, causing a explosion that uniquely hurts the user. Furthermore, if the trap hasn’t been set off or destroyed within ten seconds, it will disappear entirely. Fishing Rod will sometimes disconnect if a [[platform]] obstructs Isabelle’s ability to reel in her line. In addition, what happens when this occurs is rather unpredictable, ranging from breaking off immediately, to bringing her catch in, without performing a [[throw]]. While the latter can be desirable, the effect is neither common nor controllable. Losing her catch often results in no punish, and can leave her vulnerable to a counter attack.

While a notable player before 2025, his performances in the first half of 2025 would see some of Mega Man's strongest results since the pandemic; after a few solid placements at a few superregionals, Peabnut would emerge as a top-level threat, achieving a 17th place finish at {{Trn\|Kagaribi 13}}, the most difficult ''Ultimate'' tournament of all time, and the single strongest performance from a mid-tiered character at the event, tied with {{Sm\|Reno}}'s placement with {{SSBU\|Byleth}}.

	In the early metagame of ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', many people believed that Mii Swordfighter had great potential to be a viable character due to having stronger frame data (with their aerials receiving the most notable changes) and better combo tools than the previous game. The significant buffs to their custom moves also stood out in particular compared to the other Mii Fighters, granting them a strong set of kill confirms (notably with Gale Strike and Chakram) and a much higher KO potential relative to ''Smash 4''. This overall led to them being considered a high-tier character at best, and they were often regarded as the strongest of the Mii Fighters.		In the early metagame of ''Super Smash Bros.

This overall led to them being considered a high-tier character at best, and they were often regarded as the strongest of the Mii Fighters.

	However, as the meta advanced, opinions on Mii Swordfighter's viability plummeted. Their weaknesses were perceived to be worse than expected, as their lackluster, disjointed range, below-average speed, and frame data for a swordfighter, a lack of moves with good frame data (such as down tilt), and lackluster throws (aside from down throw) altogether hindered their toolkit. This caused them to struggle against characters with a rushdown playstyle or significantly better disjoints. This is reflected in Mii Swordfighter's nonexistent playerbase; although Mii Swordfighter saw some success from {{Sm\|Anonymous Moniker}} in the early metagame, {{Sm\|Myollnir}} in 2021, and as an online character/occasional offline pocket from {{Sm\|Miya\|p=Honshu}} in 2024, Mii Swordfighter remains one of the least represented characters in the metagame, ranking at or near the bottom in terms of representation since 2021. This low representation and poor reception are reflected in Mii Swordfighter's placements, as they have not ranked above the D- tier out of the three officially released tier lists. Despite their lack of representation at top level, the character has placed higher at every preceding tier list so far. They have been ranked 78th on the first tier list~~, 76th on the second tier list, 72nd on the third tier list,~~ and 71st on the fourth and current tier list. Their ~~tier~~ is mostly due to the reassessments of other fighters in D+ and not because of metagame breakthroughs for Mii Swordfighter.

	Lucina's stagnation remained in the following year as her best players, albeit successful at several events, remained inconsistent overall, while even more characters ranked below her saw improved representation or overall stronger results. These resulted in Lucina sliding even further on the third tier list to 38th, ranking all the way at the end of the A- tier. Overall, though players still agree that Lucina is a good character, her lower effectiveness in the newer metagame keeps her from being as successful as the other A-tier characters.

			Despite Lucina going up by a single spot to 37th on the fourth tier list, her stagnation in the newer metagame continued throughout 2025 despite a few notable results by Mr. E. So much so that he ended up dropping the character for solo Aegis in early 2026, leaving Lucina with no representation much like her parent character Marth.

	Palutena is ranked 16th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing her near the top of the A+ tier. This is a drastic improvement over her 44th out of 54 placement in ''SSB4''. Palutena is one of the most improved veterans from the transition to ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'' due to the engine of ''Ultimate'' complementing her unique strengths. Her aerials are a core part of her neutral due to her high aerial mobility and their effective traits: they both start and extend combos, most notably with her neutral aerial, which is commonly considered one of the best moves in the game due to its overall utility for starting combos, comboing into itself, high active frames and KOing at very high percents. Her back air is great for retreating and mid-range combat due to the invincibility of the shield and priority, while up air is an amazing disjointed multi-hit that functions as a juggle tool and KO option. Her grab game is also impressive due to its above-average reach and her decent set of throws. Overall, this results in her having one of the best advantage states in the game. Her specials also have seen noteworthy improvements: [[Autoreticle]] is useful for interrupting midrange approaches or recoveries, [[Explosive Flame]] is effective for general zoning and for halting approaches, [[Warp]] makes her difficult to edgeguard consistently, and her [[Reflect Barrier]] functions as a simultaneous [[counterattack]] and [[reflection\|reflector]] that enhances her already strong defense.		Palutena is ranked 16th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing her near the top of the A+ tier. This is a drastic improvement over her 44th out of 54 placement in ''SSB4'', and makes her the highest-ranked veteran from ''Smash 4''.

	Despite these many strengths, Palutena is not without her flaws. While she wields an excellent air game, her ground game is below average in comparison, having slow and unsafe tilts alongside committal smash attacks. She also has trouble securing stocks at high percents due to her KO moves being fairly predictable (Explosive Flame) or easily staled due to overuse (back aerial). Palutena's main combo starters are also unsafe on shield and thus forces her to mix up her gameplan and neutral. Finally, her recovery is completely reliant on Warp, which has no active hitbox and can be consistently [[two frame\|two frame punished]].

	Bowser's nerfs, however, are notably offset by the very useful buffs Bowser has received (particularly to up throw). Overall, Bowser has seen some rather significant buffs, which work excellently with the game's universal changes. Bowser not only has greater endurance, is overall faster, and has a much better recovery, but he also has greater KO potential and excellent combo potential, due to his greatly improved up throw. This has resulted in him faring much better than he ever did in ''Brawl'' and especially ''Melee''.

This has resulted in him faring much better than he ever did in ''Brawl'' and especially ''Melee''.

	In earlier versions, Bowser was still considered a low-tier character due to his flaws largely remaining intact. Besides his recovery and improved KO potential, Bowser still suffered from the same flaws he had in ''Brawl'', and he had lost some of his more effective tools (notably his shorter grab release, which noticeably hurt his grab game at the time). Subsequent patches introduced crucial buffs that greatly improved his up throw, which became a devastating combo throw known for starting combos and closing stocks. While its combo potential was toned down in version [[1.1.4]] (~~and~~ {{SSB4\|Bayonetta}} ~~was introduced in the same patch~~), he received other useful buffs in the subsequent patches, and it remained an excellent combo tool.

	Robin is ranked 59th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing him near the end of the C- tier. This is a moderate drop from his 37th/38th out of 54 placement in ''SSB4'', where he was tied with {{SSB4\|Samus}}. Robin plays as a zoner with access to a variety of useful projectiles in [[Thunder (Robin)\|Thunder]] and [[Arcfire]], the latter allowing him to set up punishes or ledge traps. He has a unique mechanic in the form of durability, which turns his tomes and Levin Sword into [[item]]s that can be thrown after sufficient use, which allows for creative item play. His Levin Sword has limited durability but strong power and shield safety for its speed; when combined with his projectiles, this allows him to do highly damaging conversions from one opening. Finally, he has a far-reaching recovery with [[Elwind]], and a niche healing [[command grab]] in [[Nosferatu]], which [[healing\|heals]] for substantially more based on how damaged he is compared to his victim.		Robin is ranked 59th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing him near the end of the C+ tier.

	However, Robin has notable flaws. His durability mechanic is the most glaring: it forces downtime into his gameplay cycle and removes essential tools from his kit when he has no uses. Outside of his decent aerial mobility, his general speed is one of the worst in the game. Additionally, all his projectiles outside of Thoron are canceled out against other hitboxes, while his disjointed range is very short for a swordfighter, especially with the Bronze Sword, which makes trading blows very unfavorable. Combined, these make it difficult for him to start aggressive [[approach]]es and makes him vulnerable to rushdowns. Robin's defensive game is lacking as he has almost no [[out of shield]] options outside of [[Z-drop]]ping used items (which requires him to deplete tools), while his grab is only average in speed and range, with his throws having only serviceable use. Finally, his recovery does not provide any protection from above, and the aforementioned durability mechanic can cause him to lose access to it.		However, Robin has notable flaws.

	Despite being buffed during the transition from ''Smash 4'', Robin remained a relatively unpopular character for most of competitive play, due to his lackluster speed, weak defensive options, and the weapon durability system. As such, Robin was often overlooked for other characters who did his job better, and despite efforts from players such as {{Sm\|Jul}} in the early metagame, Robin's representation in the metagame remained rather small, and only decreased further following Jul's inactivity.

	Currently, there are a few notable Robin players who perform well regionally, including {{Sm\|morrocoYo}}, who dominates competitive ''Ultimate'' in Venezuela; {{Sm\|Leaf\|p=Japan}}, who has a few notable major placements; and {{Sm\|Whisky}}, who regularly places well at Mexican events. However, both morrocoYo and Whisky have limited national-level appearances, while Leaf's results remain inconsistent. As such, opinions on Robin have largely remained the same since the early metagame, which was reflected in Robin's placement on the first tier list, where he is ranked 62nd as a lower-mid tier. He then dropped further to 67th on the second tier list in the D+ tier and retained this position for the third, although tier restructuring technically made him rise into the C- tier. However, following more breakout performances from Leaf, Robin would finally rise to 59th on the fourth tier list, marking the tactician's highest placement in Ultimate's lifespan.

			== Amendment to "Titles should be nouns as opposed to verbs" ==

			{{proposal}}
			Fighting game terminology couldn't care less about "grammatical correctness". I propose that the Manual of Style be changed to allow articles to have titles that are verbs, but '''if and only if''' the title of the article is commonly used by the ''Smash'' community as a noun. "Punish" is a ''waaaaaay'' more common term in the community than "punishment" is. You wouldn't hear a smasher say that they didn't get the punishment; you’d hear them say that they didn’t get the ''punish''. Even ''I'' use "punish" as a noun, but I only use it as such in the context of ''Smash'', and I use it exclusively as a verb when I'm not talking about ''Smash''.

Dependent universes: I listened to the Pirates track that supposedly inspired Gang-Plank Galleon, and I honestly think it's way too loose of a resemblance to consider this so much as dependent representation.

Most notably, Kameme's results coming into 2021 were worse than what he had in the early metagame, and he began playing other characters, ultimately settling on {{SSBU\|Sora}}, while relegating Mega Man to a secondary. Although new Mega Man players such as {{Sm\|MPg}}, {{Sm\|Peabnut}}, and {{Sm\|Repo}} began making waves with the character during this time, none had the consistently high placements that Kameme saw in the early metagame. As such, opinions on Mega Man have since mellowed out: he was initially ranked 38th on the first tier list at the very end of the high-tier, but later dropped down to 48th, one of the largest drops between the first and second tier list, then rose one place to 47th on the third.

	However, only a few months after the third tier list's release, Peabnut would begin to challenge Mega Man's placement on the tier list. While a notable player before 2025, his performances in the first half of 2025 would see some of Mega Man's strongest results since the pandemic; after a few solid placements at a few superregionals, Peabnut would emerge as a top-level threat, achieving a 17th place finish at {{Trn\|Kagaribi 13}}, the most difficult ''Ultimate'' tournament of all time, and the single strongest performance from a mid-tiered character at the event, tied with {{Sm\|Reno}}'s placement with {{SSBU\|Byleth}}. He followed this up with consistent top 16 placements at every major he attended (save for {{Trn\|Get On My Level: Forever}}), and saw various victories over many top players, including {{Sm\|Sparg0}}, {{Sm\|Syrup}}, and {{Sm\|Onin}}. Additionally, he became the second Mega Man player to win a major, doing so at {{Trn\|Luminosity Makes Moves Miami 2025}}. With Peabnut proving Mega Man's viability, Mega Man dramatically rose a whopping 21 spots to 26th on the fourth tier list, tying Luigi's rise from the third tier list, and effectively erasing the earlier drops from the previous tier lists.

	Palutena is ranked 16th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing her near the top of the A+ tier. This is a drastic improvement over her 44th out of 54 placement in ''SSB4''. Palutena is one of the most improved veterans from the transition to ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'' due to the engine of ''Ultimate'' complementing her unique strengths. Her aerials are a core part of her neutral due to her high aerial mobility and their effective traits: they both start and extend combos, most notably with her neutral aerial, which is commonly considered one of the best moves in the game due to its overall utility for starting combos, comboing into itself, high active frames and KOing at very high percents. Her back air is great for retreating and mid-range combat due to the invincibility of the shield and priority, while up air is an amazing disjointed multi-hit that functions as a juggle tool and KO option. Her grab game is also impressive due to its above-average reach and her decent set of throws. Overall, this results in her having one of the best advantage states in the game. Her specials also have seen noteworthy improvements: [[Autoreticle]] is useful for interrupting midrange approaches or recoveries, [[Explosive Flame]] is effective for general zoning and for halting approaches, [[Warp]] makes her difficult to edgeguard consistently, and her [[Reflect Barrier]] functions as a simultaneous [[counterattack]] and [[reflection\|reflector]] that enhances her already strong defense.		Palutena is ranked 16th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing her near the top of the A+ tier.

	Despite these many strengths, Palutena is not without her flaws. While she wields an excellent air game, her ground game is below average in comparison, having slow and unsafe tilts alongside committal smash attacks. She also has trouble securing stocks at high percents due to her KO moves being fairly predictable (Explosive Flame) or easily staled due to overuse (back aerial). Palutena's main combo starters are also unsafe on shield and thus forces her to mix up her gameplan and neutral. Finally, her recovery is completely reliant on Warp, which has no active hitbox and can be consistently [[two frame\|two frame punished]].

	Robin is ranked 59th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing him near the end of the C- tier. This is a moderate drop from his 37th/38th out of 54 placement in ''SSB4'', where he was tied with {{SSB4\|Samus}}. Robin plays as a zoner with access to a variety of useful projectiles in [[Thunder (Robin)\|Thunder]] and [[Arcfire]], the latter allowing him to set up punishes or ledge traps. He has a unique mechanic in the form of durability, which turns his tomes and Levin Sword into [[item]]s that can be thrown after sufficient use, which allows for creative item play. His Levin Sword has limited durability but strong power and shield safety for its speed; when combined with his projectiles, this allows him to do highly damaging conversions from one opening. Finally, he has a far-reaching recovery with [[Elwind]], and a niche healing [[command grab]] in [[Nosferatu]], which [[healing\|heals]] for substantially more based on how damaged he is compared to his victim.

	However, Robin has notable flaws. His durability mechanic is the most glaring: it forces downtime into his gameplay cycle and removes essential tools from his kit when he has no uses. Outside of his decent aerial mobility, his general speed is one of the worst in the game. Additionally, all his projectiles outside of Thoron are canceled out against other hitboxes, while his disjointed range is very short for a swordfighter, especially with the Bronze Sword, which makes trading blows very unfavorable. Combined, these make it difficult for him to start aggressive [[approach]]es and makes him vulnerable to rushdowns. Robin's defensive game is lacking as he has almost no [[out of shield]] options outside of [[Z-drop]]ping used items (which requires him to deplete tools), while his grab is only average in speed and range, with his throws having only serviceable use. Finally, his recovery does not provide any protection from above, and the aforementioned durability mechanic can cause him to lose access to it.		However, Robin has notable flaws.

	Despite being buffed during the transition from ''Smash 4'', Robin remained a relatively unpopular character for most of competitive play, due to his lackluster speed, weak defensive options, and the weapon durability system. As such, Robin was often overlooked for other characters who did his job better, and despite efforts from players such as {{Sm\|Jul}} in the early metagame, Robin's representation in the metagame remained rather small, and only decreased further following Jul's inactivity.

	Currently, there are a few notable Robin players who perform well regionally, including {{Sm\|morrocoYo}}, who dominates competitive ''Ultimate'' in Venezuela; {{Sm\|Leaf\|p=Japan}}, who has a few notable major placements; and {{Sm\|Whisky}}, who regularly places well at Mexican events. However, both morrocoYo and Whisky have limited national-level appearances, while Leaf's results remain inconsistent. As such, opinions on Robin have largely remained the same since the early metagame, which was reflected in Robin's placement on the first tier list, where he is ranked 62nd as a lower-mid tier. He then dropped further to 67th on the second tier list in the D+ tier and retained this position for the third, although tier restructuring technically made him rise into the C- tier. However, following more breakout performances from Leaf, Robin would finally rise to 59th on the fourth tier list, marking the tactician's highest placement in Ultimate's lifespan.
