Sonic is currently ranked 4th out of 82 on the ''Ultimate'' [[tier list]], placing him at the top of S tier. This is a slight improvement from his 7th/8th out of 54 placement in ''Smash 4'' (where he was tied with {{SSB4|Fox}}), makes him the highest ranked base-game character | Sonic is currently ranked 4th out of 82 on the ''Ultimate'' [[tier list]], placing him at the top of S tier. This is a slight improvement from his 7th/8th out of 54 placement in ''Smash 4'' (where he was tied with {{SSB4|Fox}}), makes him the highest ranked base-game character, thus, making this his best placement in the series. Sonic's biggest strength is his speed, which allows him to have a hit-and-run playstyle. Complementing this speed is his massive array of burst options with a wide window of unreactable range thanks to moves like [[Spin Charge]] and [[Spin Dash]], giving Sonic unparalleled exertion over the [[stage]] as he is able to weave around enemy defenses, [[bait]] out [[approach|approaches]], and control the overall pace of the game. In addition, Sonic can also play offensively, as his speed allows him to chase opponents across the entire stage while his great recovery also allows him to place pressure on the opponents offstage. All of this allows Sonic to rack up damage fast while keeping damage done towards him at a minimum. | ||
However, Sonic has some noteworthy flaws, most notably his KO potential. Many of his best KO moves either require proper positioning to be most effective or have noticeable starting and ending lag; this can lead to opponents surviving up to high percents if Sonic is unable to secure an early KO. In addition, some of Sonic's moves, such as Spin Charge and his up aerial, also have occasionally unreliable hit detection, which can render situations where the opponent may inadvertently escape one of his combos. | However, Sonic has some noteworthy flaws, most notably his KO potential.
