'''Ness''' ({{ja|ネス|Nesu}}, ''Ness'') is an | '''Ness''' ({{ja|ネス|Nesu}}, ''Ness'') is an playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. He was confirmed on February 1st, 2008 on the ''Smash Dojo'' website. He is once again voiced by Makiko Ohmoto, with mostly recycled voice clips from ''Melee'', while providing some new ones. | ||
Ness is currently ranked 26th out of 38 on the [[tier list]], a vast improvement from his placement in Melee, where he was ranked 23rd out of 26 characters. Ness possesses a strong aerial game with very useful [[aerial attack]]s, as well as effective [[tilt]]s, effective [[throw]]s, a projectile with great trapping and damage potential in [[PK Fire]], a versatile projectile capable of very early KOs and [[mindgame]]s in [[PK Thunder]], and multiple powerful, reliable finishers (such as his back throw and back aerial). Ness is greatly hindered however, by his limited and easily disruptable recovery, the rather poor [[reach]] in most of his attacks, possessing a lackluster set of [[smash attack]]s, and by the 10 additional frames of [[lag]] he suffers when [[grab release]]d, leaving him vulnerable to grab release followups from almost every character, as well as [[infinite]] and zero to death grab release [[chain grab]]s (most infamously from {{SSBB|Marth}} and {{SSBB|Donkey Kong}}, but also {{SSBB|Charizard}} and {{SSBB|Squirtle}}). Ness overall has poor matchups with several [[Counter (matchup)|counters]], and he has had average [[tournament]] results. | Ness is currently ranked 26th out of 38 on the [[tier list]], a vast improvement from his placement in Melee, where he was ranked 23rd out of 26 characters.

*Ness is the only fighter to have his trophy list another ''Super Smash Bros.'' game for his game appearances. This is most likely due to the fact that outside of the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'', he only made a playable appearance in ''[[EarthBound (game)|EarthBound]]''. {{forwiiu}} instead lists the second appearance as ''Mother 1+2'', released in 2003 for the Game Boy Advance. | *Ness is the only fighter to have his trophy list another ''Super Smash Bros.'' game for his game appearances.
