'''[[Master Hand]]''' is a [[boss]] appearing in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', reprising his role as a boss in the single-player mode of ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]''. He is the final boss of the 1-player [[Classic Mode]], and has a set HP which must be depleted to win; he does not appear in the Adventure Mode or All-Star Mode, where his role is replaced instead by [[Giga Bowser]] and a team of [[Mr. Game & Watch]]es. He is fought on the ''Melee'' version of {{SSBM|Final Destination}}. Defeating Master Hand once again causes the screen to fade to white as he explodes into the background; after the last results screen, the player's character is seen tumbling, then turning into their [[Trophy]] state, landing in the [[Collection]] room of the game. Master Hand can be played via use of the [[Master Hand glitch]].

Master Hand received a multitude of alterations to his overall fighting style when moving on to ''Melee''. His moveset is slightly altered and expanded, he loses the ability to turn around, and his HP is altered based on the [[difficulty]]. In addition to this increase in HP, his power increases with each increment in difficulty, with the highest levels giving him a multitude of attacks with [[OHKO]] potential. Additionally, instead of appearing as a glove with a "cuff", Master Hand's "wrist" fades into nothingness.

:''The Master Hand awaits anyone who survives the long difficult road to the Final Destination.  This symbolic link between the real world and the imaginary battlefields of Super Smash Bros. Melee is quite a handful in battle, and just because he wears a white glove doesn't mean he fights clean. Get ready to get flicked, swatted, punched, and poked like crazy!''
