==Changes from ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
==Changes from ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
The Mii Brawler has been the most extensively modified of the Mii Fighters. With its height and weight now being fixed, the Mii Brawler now has set attributes, now being a [[weight|middleweight]] fast faller with high mobility and effective close combat abilities, making his playstyle along the lines of other combo-oriented "footsies" fighters like {{SSBU|Little Mac}} or {{SSBU|Squirtle}}. The Brawler is also the Mii whose custom moves have been the most extensively modified. As a result of his moveset overhaul, the Mii Brawler has received a large mix of buffs and nerfs in the transition from ''SSB4'' to ''Ultimate''; while he was initially believed to have not been buffed enough to raise his standing on release, game updates would provide substantial buffs for the Brawler, and the changes to game mechanics have been mostly positive for him. Overall, the Mii Brawler was noticeably buffed in the transition to ''Ultimate''.

In terms of move changes, aside from some animation changes that set his moves apart from other characters, the Brawler's standard moveset has been noticeably improved. His moves' functionality has not been altered significantly, with quality-of-life changes like forward tilt losing its sourspot, forward aerial being faster, and moves such as his smash attacks and back aerial getting moderate to high increases in knockback. Similarly to the other Mii Fighters, the Brawler's default special moves have been buffed significantly: [[Shot Put]] has less endlag and sends at a lower angle that makes it more useful, [[Onslaught]] has increased KO potential overall, [[Soaring Axe Kick]] covers slightly more distance and the descending part now has to be manually inputted, and [[Head-On Assault]] can now KO and deals increased shield damage. These changes give him a larger abundance of powerful moveset choices, fixing one of the Brawler's former weaknesses and allowing the Brawler to function just as effectively without altered custom moves.

In the end, the changes to the Mii Brawler's moveset have improved his moveset overall and allow more of his special moves to shine due to their new utility, allowing the Brawler to more reliably adapt to a combo-based hit-and-run playstyle, though at the cost of weaker down throw combos and his strongest special moves being put in-line with the rest. Of note is that the Brawler still retains some of his former weaknesses from ''SSB4'' despite them being toned down, such as a polarized neutral game due to his poor range and only passable projectile, trouble at landing his most powerful KO options, and a vulnerable recovery. Game updates, however, have provided the Brawler with some notable buffs, compensating for some of his initial nerfs and significantly improving his options in the neutral game. As a result, the Brawler has vastly improved from his appearance in ''SSB4'', and he is widely considered to be the most effective out of the three Miis.
