Dark Samus, alongside her base fighter Samus, is ranked 25th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing her in the A+ tier. Dark Samus has very minor differences from Samus, such as slighty altered hitboxes due to her different animations and elemental properties. These differences are not enough to make her play differently from Samus. As such, they are viewed as the same character in competitive play.

Dark Samus shares the same positives as Samus, such as strong zoning capabilities and a heavy [[weight]]. However, she also shares Samus' weaknesses, such as poor grounded options against up-close opponents and unreliable smash attacks.
