While the soul breaker glitch has [[Broken|game-breaking potential]] similar to the [[freeze glitch]] (which is banned in tournaments), it is less of a threat in actual matches since its specific conditions (catching an opponent with Confusion while reflecting a projectile back and forth) make it impossible to achieve unless all players wanted to intentionally provoke the glitch. Furthermore, Confusion has little practicality in competitive play, due to its high starting and ending lag, as well as a lack of practical applications in Mewtwo's [[metagame]].

The glitch does not reappear in ''[[SSB4]]'', as projectiles that overpower reflectors, including Confusion, phase through them and damage the character.
