Jigglypuff (SSB4): Difference between revisions

Jigglypuff is currently ranked 58th on the [[tier list]], placing it at the bottom the F tier and the entire tier list itself, a slight drop from its already near-bottom ranking in ''Brawl''. Jigglypuff retains its strong air game due to its high aerial mobility thanks to its very fast [[air speed]] and multiple [[midair jump]]s, as well as good [[juggling]] ability thanks to its fast and long-lasting aerial attacks. All of these attributes facilitate a strong [[edgeguarding]] potential, and allow it to perform its signature [[Wall of Pain]] technique, although not with quite the same potency, while its neutral and back aerials are potent KOing options, include a now-buffed [[Rest]]. However, Jigglypuff is strongly held back by its poor ground game, due to its poor mobility on the ground and short [[range]] on most of its attacks, including its grab. Furthermore, Jigglypuff has significant difficulty in KOing opponents, as it has few reliable KO moves, and a majority of them feature considerable amounts of lag that cause them to be unsafe in most scenario. Its endurance is unarguably the worst in the game, as it is extremely floaty and possesses the lowest [[weight]] in the game, further exacerbated by the new [[rage]] mechanic and weaker [[shield]]s. Although generally considered non-viable for tournament play, Jigglypuff does have a few impressive tournament results to its credit, even with its sparse playerbase: {{Sm|CrazieCuban}}, {{Sm|MASTER PUFFY}}, {{Sm|RDR7}} and {{Sm|Serynder}} have performed decently with it at regional tournaments, while {{Sm|LeeT}} notably placed 33rd at [[Shine 2016]] and 49th at [[CEO 2017]] while exclusively using Jigglypuff.
