Ike is currently ranked 71st out of 82 on the [[tier list]], placing him in the upper of D- tier. This is a slight drop compared to his tier placement in ''SSB4'', where he was ranked 39th out of 54, and is his worst placement in the series. Ike's best assets lie in his overall power and range, having some of the strongest moves in the game. His neutral aerial's low landing lag and base knockback make it an effective option for spacing and initiating combos, including into KO confirms. Additionally, Ike has a promising combo game, as he is able to use down tilt, neutral aerial, down throw and, to a lesser extent, his up throw to confirm into combos at various percentages.

However, Ike also has some polarizing weaknesses, most notably his poor disadvantage state. Due to his tall height, heavy [[weight]], slow mobility, and sluggish frame data, Ike is especially susceptible to combo-oriented and/or speedy fighters. In addition, Ike suffers from a linear recovery and is reliant on his [[double jump]]; therefore, a reasonably strong [[semi-spike]] is generally sufficient to KO him while he is offstage, especially if he has already utilized his double jump.
