Duck Hunt are currently ranked 30th out of 55 on the [[tier list]]; in addition to placing them at the top of the D tier, this renders them as the highest ranking mid-tier characters. Duck Hunt have a very capable zoning game thanks to their three versatile [[projectile]]s, with the remote controllable [[Trick Shot]] being especially useful.

*When the game is slowed down via [[Training]], [[Special Smash]] or the [[Timer]], the number of hits for Duck Hunt's smash attacks will double from three to six if all of their hits connect, which results in their smash attacks dealing twice as much damage. Conversely, the last hit of each of their smash attacks will be more powerful when the game is sped up. These quirks technically make Duck Hunt's smash attacks the most damaging and among the most powerful in the game.

*Due to their [[home stage]] being [[downloadable content]] in {{for3ds}}, unlocking Duck Hunt in that version of ''SSB4'' involves fighting them on [[Battlefield (SSB4)|Battlefield]], instead of on [[Duck Hunt (stage)|their home stage of the same name]]. Despite this, they are fought on their home stage in Classic Mode in both versions of ''SSB4''.
*Due to their [[home stage]] [[Duck Hunt (stage)|Duck Hunt]] being [[downloadable content]] in {{for3ds}}, in that game they are fought on {{SSB4|Battlefield}} when unlocking them, and on miscellaneous stages (like other characters who lack a stage) in Classic Mode. When the Duck Hunt stage is downloaded, their Classic Mode stage changes to that stage; however, their unlock stage remains Battlefield.
