In the early metagame of ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', many people have realized that the Mii Swordfighter had great potential to be a viable character due to having stronger frame data (with their aerials having the most notable change), better combo tools than the previous game, and a stronger set of kill confirms their moveset. This overall led to being considered a high-tier character at best, being the strongest of the Mii Fighters.

However, as the meta advanced, the viewpoint on the Mii Swordfighter's opinion has gone down considerably from release. Pros such as {{sm|ESAM}} and {{sm|ZeRo}} have come to believe that while they have a strong set of kill confirms and projectiles, they possess one of, if not the worst disjoint in the game, a below average speed for a swordfighter, lackluster throws aside from down throw, and struggle against rushdown and characters with significantly better disjoints such as {{SSBU|Cloud}}, {{SSBU|Lucina}}, and {{SSBU|Roy}}. Despite this, their strengths and results in competitive play have still been well demonstrated, thanks to players such as {{sm|Anonymous Moniker}} and {{sm|Tsu}}, and as a result has been considered a mid tier character, though this opinion may change as the other Miis have been seeing better success, potentially leaving Mii Swordfighter as the worst of the three Mii Fighters, ranking 78th on the first and current tier list.
As the meta advanced, opinions Mii Swordfighter's viability went down considerably. Players believed that while they have a strong set of kill confirms and projectiles, Mii Swordfighter possessed one of the worst, if not the worst disjoints in the game, a below average speed for a swordfighter, and lackluster throws aside from down throw, causing them to struggle against characters with a rushdown playstyle or significantly better disjoints. This is reflected in Mii Brawler's nonexistent playerbase: although Mii Swordfighter saw some success from {{Sm|Anonymous Moniker}} in the early metagame and {{Sm|Myollnir}} in 2021, Mii Swordfighter remains one of the least represented characters in the metagame, ranking at or near the bottom in terms of representation since 2021. This low representation and poor reception is reflected in Mii Swordfighter's placements on the first two tier lists, where the character was ranked 78th on the first list as a low tier and 76th on the second list in the D- tier.
