Samus is a tall heavyweight character that is also rather [[floaty]] (which is uncommon for heavyweights). She has a fast [[dashing]] speed, but her low [[air speed]], low [[falling]] speed, and long and slow [[roll]] heavily decrease her mobility. She has decent [[range]] and also has two [[projectile]]s, including [[Charge Shot]] (which covers a great distance and is fairly powerful, being quite useful for keeping opponents at bay, but requires a large amount of charging to have KO power) and [[Bomb (Samus)|Bomb]] (which can aid her horizontal [[recovery]]). [[Spacing]] works quite well with Samus, with her forward tilt and back aerial being useful. However, she has a high and slow [[short hop]]. Her [[grab]] is one of the three tether grabs in the game, giving it excellent range, but very high lag if it misses. Her back throw is a powerful KO throw and is also tied with {{SSB|Pikachu}} and {{SSB|Donkey Kong}}'s back throws for the most damaging throw in the game.

Samus is known for being the only character in ''Smash 64'' who cannot [[0-death]] easily, though her floatiness and Screw Attack can slightly help her escape combos. Posting a legitimate Samus combo is considered to be an inside joke in the ''Smash 64'' community, as there are players who state that Samus has no [[combo]]s and that it's virtually impossible to make a combo video of her without hacking.

Overall, Samus has the worst [[matchup]]s in the game. She is heavily countered by virtually everyone in the high tiers, with especially terrible matchups against {{SSB|Fox}} and Pikachu. She has no advantageous matchups, and her only even matchup ({{SSB|Jigglypuff}}) could still be considered to be slightly in Jigglypuff's favour.
