Although Bayonetta is widely considered to be the best character in ''Smash 4'', she still has her weaknesses. Bayonetta's primary flaw is her poor frame data on the ground, with many of her grounded attacks coming out on frame 9 or later, as well as frequently having high cooldown lag, especially on her smash attacks. Some of her specials gain more landing lag the more she uses them in the air, making her landings relatively exploitable if her combos whiff. Because of their high lag, her attacks are unsafe on shield while also dealing minimal shield damage. Furthermore, despite her long recovery, Bayonetta is still considered a lightweight, and when considering her large [[hurtbox]], she is easier to hit and KO than most other characters. Finally, players must exercise caution with her Witch Time, due to its poor effectiveness on multi-hitting moves, and its lowering efficiency if used too often. Her flaws are outshined by her overwhelming strengths, however, and thus, Bayonetta still remains at first place on the tier list.

Bayonetta has historically achieved excellent tournament results and representation, even after she received infamous nerfs in 1.1.6, with {{Sm|Pink Fresh}} winning [[2GGT: KTAR Saga]] with her, along with players like {{Sm|Mistake}}  and {{Sm|CaptainZack}} placing high in nationals such as [[Super Smash Con 2017]] and [[GENESIS 4]] respectively, while {{Sm|Salem}} most notably achieved success from winning [[EVO_2017|EVO 2017]], [[DreamHack Atlanta 2017]] and [[2GGC: Fire Emblem Saga]]. Additionally, {{Sm|Lima}} took first place over {{Sm|CaptainZack}} at [[EVO 2018]], both while maining Bayonetta.
