(Clarified that Ray Mk II Mii Gunner has no voice)
Line 17: Line 17:
The Mii Gunner has been redesigned to be the slow, yet durable combatant of the three Mii Fighters. They are tied with Link, Captain Falcon, and Yoshi in terms of weight, possess an average walking speed, and the 5th slowest dashing speed in the game. As with the other two Mii Fighter types, the Gunner has access to 12 different special moves: [[Charge Blast]], [[Laser Blaze]], and [[Grenade Launch]] (Neutral Special), [[Flame Pillar]], [[Stealth Burst]], and [[Gunner Missile]] (Side Special), [[Lunar Launch]], [[Cannon Jump Kick]], and [[Arm Rocket]] (Up Special), and [[Echo Reflector]], [[Bomb Drop]], and [[Absorbing Vortex]] (Down Special).

Like the other Mii Fighters, one of the primary strengths of the Mii Gunner is their diverse set of versatile specials. Many of their specials excel at neutralizing approaches, racking up damage, edgeguarding, and shield pressure from a distance. Charge Blast is a very good KO'ing option which is extremely consistent, quick, and powerful when fully charged. Gunner Missile are both good at spacing and keeping enemies out. The Super variant deals a solid bit of damage and knockback while the Homing variant can wall out approaches and also help the Gunner initiate approaches of their own. Laser Blaze racks up decent damage while also causing flinching, making it a valuable tool similar to Falco and Fox's [[Blaster]]. Finally, Flame Pillar and Bomb Drop are both good tools for ledgetrapping and setting up kill confirms. A bomb drop at mid-high percentages can reliably confirm into back aerial while an opponent trapped in Flame Pillar can be combo'd into a fully charged Charge Blast. Additionally, the Mii Gunner can also further solidify their defensive playstyle with the usage of Echo Reflector and Absorbing Vortex, both of which aid in countering other campy or projectile-based characters.

Accompanying the Mii Gunner's vast collection of zoning specials is a very interesting and varying set of normals. While many of the Gunner's normals suffer from mild ending lag, they either possess high KO'ing power or range. Forward smash and up aerial are both among the longest-ranged moves in the game (the latter which can secure very early KO's at the top of the blast line and the former being an excellent way of reading rolls and covering landing options), forward tilt and neutral air are good tools to push pressuring opponents off of them, and forward aerial is a very useful move, which not only can edgeguard and space opponents from a distance due to it being a projectile, but it also can be used to perform a technique called gundashing, which is an excellent technique that significantly helps mitigate the Mii Gunner's lacking mobility and their recovery. Alongside the aforementioned moves are a slew of moves that have respectable KO'ing power such as up smash, up tilt, down tilt, down smash, and back aerial.
