Duck Hunt is 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. Thanks to their three versatile [[projectile]]s, Duck Hunt have a very capable zoning game, with the remote controllable [[Trick Shot]] being especially useful.

Duck Hunt's fast [[air speed]] and useful aerial attacks also grant them a decent air game, which in turn syncs well with their projectiles' ability to maintain stage control. Duck Hunt's frame data is also quite good: nearly all of their moves have less than 10 frames of start-up lag and very high knockback growth, which enable Duck Hunt to ward off opponents quite well in close quarters combat.
