 '''Kirby''' ({{ja|カービィ|Kābī}}, ''Kirby'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Like all veterans, he was confirmed on June 12th, 2018. Kirby is classified as [[Fighter  number|Fighter #06]].

 Kirby is voiced in all regions once again by Makiko Ōmoto, using a combination of new voice clips and ones recycled from ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''.
-Kirby is currently ranked 76th out of 82 on the ''Ultimate'' [[tier list]], placing him in the upper half of D+ tier. This is similar to his placement in the previous game, where he was ranked 49th out of 54. Kirby is characterized by excellent frame-data, granting him access to quick and powerful [[combos]]. He also possesses high damage output on the majority of his moveset, with his back aerial and dash attack granting him access to strong KO options in his kit. Kirby's relatively small size and low crouch also makes him hard to hit; his crouch especially allows him to avoid most grabs and some attacks. Finally, Kirby's [[Inhale]] grants him his opponent's [[neutral special move]], which not only deals more damage than the opponent's, but can also be useful for alleviating some of Kirby's weaknesses and turning the tides of various matchups.
+Kirby is currently ranked 75th out of 82 on the ''Ultimate'' [[tier list]], placing him in the upper half of D+ tier. This is marginally better his placement in the previous game, where he was ranked 49th out of 54. Kirby is characterized by excellent frame-data, granting him access to quick and powerful [[combos]]. He also possesses high damage output on the majority of his moveset, with his back aerial and dash attack granting him access to strong KO options in his kit.

Finally, Kirby's [[Inhale]] grants him his opponent's [[neutral special move]], which not only deals more damage than the opponent's, but can also be useful for alleviating some of Kirby's weaknesses and turning the tides of various matchups.
 However, Kirby's strenghts come at a cost of his poor endurance, as his light [[weight]] makes him susceptible to early KOs. His poor mobility, as well as a lack of projectiles and ranged attacks, presents a host of problems in [[Neutral game|neutral]] and offstage, as Kirby has trouble approaching and fighting those that can outrange him. Finally, Kirby's recovery, though far-reaching, is rather predictable, and his poor air speed and [[floatiness]] make Kirby very vulnerable to edgeguarding.
