Fighting bosses are an entirely different matter than normal fights. Compared to the playable cast, bosses usually have fewer attacks available. These attacks tend to be telegraphed with long startups and end lag, making them more avoidable; on the other hand, they generally deal higher damage and knockback should they connect. Bosses' immunity to knockback also means that the player's moveset will have to be used differently - for example, [[grab]]s and [[throws]] will nearly always be useless, and moves of high knockback but low damage are ineffective. On the other hand, bosses' large size and predictable movements and behavior often mean that they have difficulty dodging attacks, and so powerful moves with long startups such as [[Falcon Punch]] can be highly effective. | Fighting bosses are an entirely different matter than normal fights.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', boss characters were usable in normal games through hacks or the [[debug menu]]. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' onwards the character IDs for the bosses have been removed, meaning they are unplayable even with hacks, although in ''Brawl'' they are controllable in [[Boss Battles]] mode via hacks.

While the character IDs for bosses are still absent in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' Giga Boswer still has a character ID and can be made playable with hacks. Additionally in ''Ultimate'', {{SSBU|Master Hand}} can be controlled for one battle in [[World of Light]], which is the first intended instance of a boss being playable. | ||
