For the first time, Dream Land is not a universally neutral stage. As most of the stages in the game have rather large blast zones, Dream Land is a comparatively small stage, with its ceiling being particularly low, being significantly lower than in pervious iterations. As a result, the stage heavily favors characters with primarily vertical finishers, such as {{SSB4|Zero Suit Samus}}, {{SSB4|Meta Knight}}, and {{SSB4|Ryu}}, who are all further aided by the platforms. The short side blast lines also benefit characters who have strong edge-guarding abilities, with {{SSB4|Captain Falcon}} and Meta Knight being notable examples. These advantages have resulted in the stage being viewed as less fair than Battlefield, and as such, some tournaments feature Dream Land as a counterpick.
For the first time, Dream Land is not a universally neutral stage, and it has shrunk to about the size of {{SSB4|Battlefield}}. Though the blast lines are actually average for {{forwiiu}}, the top platform is much closer to the ceiling compared to Battlefield. As a result, the stage heavily favors characters with primarily vertical finishers, such as {{SSB4|Zero Suit Samus}}, {{SSB4|Meta Knight}}, and {{SSB4|Ryu}}, who are all further aided by the platforms. This advantage has resulted in the stage being viewed as less fair than Battlefield, and as such, some tournaments feature Dream Land as a counterpick.
