Sonic (SSB4)

==Changes from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''==

Sonic has been [[buff]]ed ~~significantly~~ in his transition from ''Brawl'' to ''Smash 4''. The most noticeable improvement he received was to his KO potential, which was his most glaring weakness in ''Brawl''. A decent number of Sonic's attacks have had their knockback increased, most notably his forward smash, up smash, and clean back aerial, all of which are much more viable kill options. His back throw also now possesses KO potential.

His back throw also now possesses KO potential.

Sonic's moveset in general has also been improved in various ways. Notably, two of his moves (dash attack and down smash) have been completely overhauled. Sonic's new dash attack hits multiple times, which is further supplemented by the weakening of [[SDI]], and it possesses very high knockback growth; altogether, these traits make it better than his previous dash attack in regard to [[punish]]ing and [[tech-chasing]]. In comparison, Sonic's new down smash is generally more useful than his previous one, thanks to it being a [[semi-spike]] that has a consistent damage output and much less overall lag.
