Despite this, Mario always had solid representation thanks to players such as {{Sm|Dark Wizzy}}, {{Sm|Kurama}}, {{Sm|MastaMario}}, and {{Sm|Lui$}}. Dark Wizzy, in particular, has consistently placed in Top 8 at many national tournaments including {{Trn|Shine 2019}}, {{Trn|Glitch 8}}, and {{Trn|GENESIS 7}}. In addition, Kurama defeated {{Sm|MkLeo}} at {{Trn|Frostbite 2020}} in a 3-0 fashion. These results have significantly improved Mario's reception among professionals to the point where most players consider him to be top-tier. Furthermore, some of his hardest matchups, such as {{SSBU|Sonic}}, {{SSBU|Marth}}, and {{SSBU|Cloud}}, were considerably nerfed, and were less of a problem to deal with.

Due to his better reception, Mario's nerfs from ''Smash 4'' did not affect him in the long run as players noted that all his strengths from the previous game, despite being nerfed, were mostly retained. His matchup spread is also great: Mario has positive matchups against meta-relevant characters like {{SSBU|Pikachu}}, {{SSBU|R.O.B.}}, {{SSBU|Mega Man}}, {{SSBU|Olimar}}, {{SSBU|Pac-Man}}, {{SSBU|Inkling}}, {{SSBU|Fox}}, {{SSBU|Wolf}}, and {{SSBU|Wario}}, while only having a few troublesome matchups, such as {{SSBU|Lucina}},{{SSBU|Peach}}, {{SSBU|Palutena}}, {{SSBU|Mr. Game & Watch}}, {{SSBU|Roy}}, {{SSBU|Shulk}}, and {{SSBU|Sephiroth}}.
