Dr. Mario (SSBM): Difference between revisions

Line 34: Line 34:
Overall, Dr. Mario is a solid character with fast, relatively powerful attacks with great edgeguarding ability and good approaching options. As long as players can stay on the stage during the battle and keep their opponents within arm's reach, there is little an opponent can do against him.

Since Dr. Mario is ranked much higher than Mario, he is much better overall. His attacks are much more powerful. He can also spike foes with his Up smash, albeit only working on grounded foes. He can KO earlier than Mario, and his throws are much stronger, with his back throw being among the strongest throws in the game.

However, Dr. Mario's recovery is worse since he cannot wall jump. His Super Sheet (side special) can only lift him up once and does not lift him high either. His forward smash has less reach and he can't cancel his Super Jump Punch.
