Mr. Game & Watch demonstrates all nine Judge attacks on Snake in Brawl.
User Mr. Game & Watch
Universe Game & Watch universe
Judge in Melee.

Judge is Mr. Game & Watch's side special move. Mr. Game & Watch will attack with his hammer and hold up a digital display with a random number on it when used.

The effects are as follows:

  • 1 - A very weak attack that does 2%; the opponent won't flinch. In Brawl, this Judge damages Mr. Game & Watch by 12%, regardless of whether the attack connects with an opponent, and regardless of stale-move negation.
  • 2 - A weak attack that does 4% with minimal knockback, but has a chance of tripping the opponent.
  • 3 - An attack that does 6% with a fan sound upon contact. Similar to a Fan ftilt, this attack launches the enemy backwards and deals significant shield damage to opposing shields.
  • 4 - A slashing attack that does 8% and launches opponents diagonally, similar to the Beam Sword ftilt.
  • 5 - An attack that produces four electrical charges that zap the opponent, making them rise slightly. Each hit does 3%, for a total of 12%.
  • 6 - A flame attack that does 12% with surprisingly strong horizontal knockback. This attack is also a semi-spike, making it deadly to recovering opponents. This Judge is the second strongest Judge in terms of knockback.
  • 7 - An attack that does 14% with moderate horizontal knockback. A food item will also appear in honor of the lucky #7. In Brawl, this item is invariably an apple. The apple only appears if the attack is used on the ground, and if the hammer connects with Mr. Game & Watch's opponent.
  • 8 - An attack that does 9% with weak vertical knockback while freezing the opponent.
  • 9 - An extremely powerful attack that does 32% with massive horizontal knock back, KOing at low percentages. It produces the a bell sound upon the move and a "ping" sound upon contact; similar to the Home-Run Bat's smash attack.

Mr. Game & Watch cannot get a number that was used in either of the two previous uses of the move; for example, getting a 5 will mean that the next two uses of the move cannot result in a 5. In the same way, the first use of Judge in a match cannot be a 2, and the first two uses cannot be a 1. This means that, ignoring the two invalid numbers, each possibility has a 1/7 chance of occuring.

Origin

Judge was a Game & Watch game that could be played with two players. Two Game & Watch characters had signboards and hammers. When a round starts, each player's sign would display a random number from 1 to 9. The point of the game was for the player with the higher number to hit his opponent on the head with their hammer, while the player with the lower number tried to dodge said attack. If the numbers were equal, the player can either hit or dodge. This was translated in the Smash world in which the higher the number, the stronger the attack.

Trivia

  • Despite being known as Judgement in his Super Smash Bros. Melee trophy data, it was changed for his update on the DOJO!! to match the name of the source game.
