==Changes from ''Brawl''==
==Changes from ''Brawl''==
Sonic has been [[buff]]ed in the transition from ''[[Brawl]]'' to ''[[SSB4]]'', and many of the flaws that nearly crippled him in ''Brawl'' have been addressed. Several of his attacks have been given more knockback, and his KOing power has drastically improved. Also, many of his less effective and situational moves from ''Brawl'' (which were most of his attacks outside of his special moves) have been buffed to possess more utility by either being capable of comboing into other attacks or KOing outright.  
Sonic has been buffed in the transition from ''[[Brawl]]'' to ''[[SSB4]]'', in which he was a mid-tier character. Several of his attacks have been given more knockback (most notably to his throws and smash attacks), and many of his less effective/situational moves from ''Brawl'' (which were most of his attacks outside of his special moves) have been buffed to possess more utility by either being capable of comboing into other attacks or KO'ing outright.
 
However, Sonic also also received some nerfs. His overall recovery was slightly nerfed, as some of his options are either not as reliable as before (such as Homing Attack) or they travel a shorter distance (such as Spring Jump). Additionally, the game updates have nerfed his combo and his KOing games. However, these nerfs are insignifcant compared to the buffs he received.
 
Overall, Sonic has achieved impressive tournament representation and results and is considered by the competitive community to be a solid high-teir.

Additionally, the game updates have nerfed his combo and his KOing games. Nonetheless, Sonic is effectively much more viable than he was in ''Brawl''.
