Corrin was previously considered to be a high tier character in ''SSB4'' (13th out of | Corrin was previously considered to be a high tier character in ''SSB4'' (13th out of 55 characters) thanks to a combination of excellent range and passable speed to go with good frame data, a surprisingly effective combo game, great approach option in his [[Dragon Lunge]], and repspectable KO power. Most likely owing to the stigma left by DLC characters in the previous game, Corrin was drastically nerfed during the initial release of ''Ultimate''; however, game updates would provide many noteworthy buffs to help compensate and make up for his lost options. Regardless, Corrin is still considered to be slightly nerfed overall. | ||
Corrin's nerfs have primarily addressed the most oppressive aspects of his kit, with his special moveset suffering the largest recipients. [[Dragon Lunge]], previously his most versatile move, has become riskier to execute as its kicking part now covers less distance and suffers much more ending lag, and its ability to cross up opponents is also worsened with the game's changes to [[jostling]]. [[Dragon Fang Shot]] has increased lag and [[paralysis|paralyzes]] opponents for less time if not fully charged or at low percentage, both changes of which make the projectile follow up into the bite less consistently and remove its previous KO confirm from forward aerial at mid-percentages (though the move itself still follows up naturally at high percentages). [[Counter Surge]], previously one of the most infamous counterattacks in the game, has lost its strong late hit, deals substantially less knockback, and has much more ending lag upon a successful counterattack. Among other nerfs, his [[forward smash]] has a much shorter active duration, [[down smash]]'s back hit is weaker, and [[Dragon Ascent]] now halts at the end of the move, slightly reducing Corrin's horizontal recovery distance. His grabs have slightly less range, rendering them harder to use to pressure opponents, and causing Corrin to rely on spacing much more, while his forward and back throws' lower knockback makes them less effective in battles against multiple characters. | Corrin's nerfs have primarily addressed the most oppressive aspects of his kit, with his special moveset suffering the largest recipients.
