Kirby (SSBB): Difference between revisions

Kirby ranks 20th on the current [[tier list]] in the top of middle tier, which is a drastic improvement over his last place ranking in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''. Kirby has one of the strongest combo abilities in ''Brawl'', as he has many great setup moves, and attacks that string together well. Additionally, Kirby possesses a strong [[grab]] and [[throw]] game, with an above average grab range, two great setup throws, and a throw that can even KO (which is rare among characters in ''Brawl''). Kirby also has a far reaching and generally safe [[recovery]], disproportionately far [[disjointed hitbox|disjointed]] [[reach]] in his attacks, fast and solid tilts, an all use attack in his [[back aerial]], solid [[edge guarding]] capabilities, and very powerful finishers (with his [[forward smash]] being especially effective). However, Kirby suffers from slow movement speed, which when combined with his lack of a solid projectile, creates difficulty [[approach]]ing and dealing with opposing [[camping]]. Additionally, with his very light [[weight]] and poor [[momentum cancelling]] abilities, Kirby has one of the worst endurances. Kirby also has his power taper off greatly outside his finishers (giving opponents very high survival potential if Kirby can't land his finishers), poor to mediocre aerials outside his back aerial, and generally poor [[matchup]]s against top/high tier characters (most notably, being countered by three of the four best characters). Overall, Kirby has above average matchups, with average [[tournament]] results.
