Kirby has been noticeably buffed via game updates. Update [[1.0.6]] improved up and down smashes' KO potentials; re-purposed down throw into a viable damage racking option; and decreased [[Inhale]] and [[Hammer Flip]]'s ending lag. | Kirby has been noticeably buffed via game updates. Update [[1.0.6]] improved up and down smashes' KO potentials; re-purposed down throw into a viable damage racking option; and decreased [[Inhale]] and [[Hammer Flip]]'s ending lag. Update [[1.1.0]] brought about further buffs: neutral attack's second hit connects into neutral infinite better; neutral infinite's finisher had its start-up lag decreased; forward throw was re-purposed into a useful combo starter like in ''Brawl''; and Inhale's start-up and ending lag were decreased. Kirby also slightly benefits from the new shield mechanics brought about by updates 1.1.0 and [[1.1.1]], as they make down aerial's multiple hits and [[Stone]]'s high damage output and [[hitlag]] much more reliable at pressuring shields. | ||

Update [[1.1.3]] brought about even more buffs for Kirby: his [[dash]]ing speed increased; his smash attacks, forward and back aerials, and all variations of Hammer Flip became slightly stronger; and up throw gained KO potential. Update [[1.1.4]] brought out another minor buff, as hard tripping now grants Kirby 5 frames of invincibility. Lastly, update [[1.1.5]], buffed Kirby's smash attacks and all variations of Hammer Flip by slightly increasing their knockback. As a result, Kirby is noticeably better than he was during ''SSB4''{{'}}s initial release. | Update [[1.1.3]] brought about even more buffs for Kirby: his [[dash]]ing speed increased; his smash attacks, forward and back aerials, and all variations of Hammer Flip became slightly stronger; and up throw gained KO potential.
