Donkey Kong is currently ranked 21st out of 38 on the [[tier list]] in the Mid tier. This is an improvement over his ranking in ''[[Melee]]'', were he is ranked 17th out of 26 in the lower mid tier. Donkey Kong possesses a combination of incredible power with many great finishers (especially in his [[smash attack]]s), and incredible [[reach]] in his attacks. Along with this power and reach combination, Donkey Kong possesses above average movement with remarkably good mobility for a character of his size, and many fast attacks (such as his [[back aerial]] and [[tilt]]s). Additionally, Donkey Kong possesses by far the greatest horizontal endurance with his great [[weight]] and [[Spinning Kong]] [[momentum cancelling#Horizontal momentum cancelling|momentum cancelling]], as well as one of the strongest vertical endurances, and a [[recovery]] that gains great horizontal distance while protecting Donkey Kong, making Donkey Kong one of the hardest characters to KO. Donkey Kong's incredible weight is a double-edge sword however; while it makes him incredibly difficult to KO, it also makes him incredibly easy to [[combo]], [[juggle]], and [[chain throw]], including making him vulnerable to [[infinite]] and zero to death chain throws (most notoriously from {{SSBB|King Dedede}}). Additional problems of Donkey Kong include most of his attacks having heavy ending [[lag]] (making it easy to [[punish]] most of his attacks if he misses), being very vulnerable to [[meteor smash]] gimps due to his recovery gaining much less vertical distance, his [[shield]] being too small for a character of his size leaving him heavily vulnerable to [[shield stabbing]], and lacking a [[projectile]], which when combined with his very large size and aforementioned shield issues, gives Donkey Kong severe issues dealing with [[camp]]ing. While his [[roll]]s and [[air dodge]] are about average, his [[sidestep]] is the second slowest, after {{SSBB|Bowser}}. Overall, Donkey Kong has decidedly poor [[matchup]]s while being [[counter (matchup)|countered]] by the majority of top and high tier (and is also hard countered by two, but Donkey Kong also hard counters three), and has achieved average [[tournament]] results. | |||

Donkey Kong is a very [[Weight#SSBB_Weight_Ranking|heavy]] character with very powerful attacks, great attack range, and high [[knockback]] capabilities. Despite these pros, Donkey Kong lacks projectiles and a reliable way to deal with them, which makes his moveset and style of approach unvaried. He is one of the fastest heavyweight characters; his movement speed is above average: fast running, fast walking, fast air speed, and very high initial [[jump]]. Donkey Kong's weight helps him stay alive longer, though he is a big target and has very poor vertical recovery, but extremely long horizontal recovery. He can even use Spinning Kong to | Donkey Kong is a very [[Weight#SSBB_Weight_Ranking|heavy]] character with very powerful attacks, great attack range, and high [[knockback]] capabilities. Despite these pros, Donkey Kong lacks projectiles and a reliable way to deal with them, which makes his moveset and style of approach unvaried. He is one of the fastest heavyweight characters; his movement speed is above average: fast running, fast walking, fast air speed, and very high initial [[jump]]. Donkey Kong's weight helps him stay alive longer, though he is a big target and has very poor vertical recovery, but extremely long horizontal recovery. He can even use Spinning Kong to cancel knockback from an attack that would even KO {{SSBB|Bowser}}, {{SSBB|Snake}}, or {{SSBB|King Dedede}}. Despite his extremely long horizontal recovery, it is vulnerable to disjointed attacks and has poor vertical height which means even weak meteor smashes can be devastating, though it's hard to edge guard without a disjointed attack due its initial invincibility frames. Combining his impressive weight and good horizontal recovery with good [[directional influence]], he will be extremely hard to KO. | ||
Although he can take a lot of damage before being [[KO]]ed, he gets hit very easily due to his large size. His large size and heavy weight also leaves him open to many chain grabs (e.g. {{SSBB|King Dedede}}'s infinite chain grab without a wall, which is truly problematic at such a high level), except Bowser's ground releases. Though given his attack range and speed, it can be difficult for characters with short-ranged grabs like the {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}} to grab him to begin with. His Headbutt attack allows him to get a free attack on the opponent, as many of his follow-up attacks have low startup time, and it also does very high damage to shields. His fully charged Giant Punch also heavily damages shields, and the [[armor]] it grants may allow him to trade KO moves with an opponent and survive. Even his grounded [[Spinning Kong]] does high damage to opponents or shields. Having three high shield damage attacks he can give high shield pressure. Donkey Kong has no problems KOing: all his smashes are powerful, with his [[up smash|up]] & [[down smash]]es coming out very fast; [[up aerial]] can compensate for a missed [[edge-guard]], three reliable [[meteor smash]]es, [[back aerial]] & [[back throw|throw]], Giant Punch (10 charges is actually more powerful than fully charged, but doesn't have armor) and the cargo [[stage spike]]. | |||
He can counter any ground grab releases because of his unique extremely short grab release animation, making him escape from release lag 10 frames earlier than any other character does and being immune to Bowser's grab release game with the addition of only Snake and Yoshi being able to force him to jump break from grabs. Donkey Kong is unique to be able to carry [[crate]]s, [[barrel]]s and [[Bonsly]] without a reduction in speed, but small items have unusual long end animation (though he has one of the best [[Glide Toss]]es in the game). DK also has a large grab range with powerful throws, and he is even able to chain-grab some characters, DK can infinite-Cargo release Lucas and Ness, he can KO characters in low damage percentages when using the Cargo stage-spike. Donkey Kong can also perform [[Sacrificial KO|Kongocide]], although it's not the most useful of the sacrificial KOs. Although Donkey Kong has his share of problems, he fares decently against the majority of the cast, and there are very few problems he can't overcome. | |||
In terms of cosmetics, Donkey Kong has more realistic gorilla roars (similar to other characters having more realistic noises). His costume is lighter and very different from ''Melee'' (making him comparable to his appearance in ''{{s|dkwiki|Donkey Kong Jungle Beat}}'' with his furrier appearance). | |||
==Changes from ''Melee'' to ''Brawl''== | |||
In the transition from ''Melee'' to ''Brawl'', Donkey Kong was heavily buffed overall. Alongside receiving no significant nerf, he has been improved in several aspects, including his mobility, endurance potential, power, recovery, and range. | |||

===Tier placement and history=== | ===Tier placement and history=== | ||
Donkey Kong was | |||
Donkey Kong was initally seen as a high tier character in ''Brawl'', being ranked 10th on the first tier list. The buffs he received from his transition from ''Melee'' to ''Brawl'' made him a powerful character that could compete against a then inexperienced playerbase who didn't utilize much camping and chaingrabbing. As the metagame developed however, it became apparent that Donkey Kong's buffs were simply not enough to keep him as a high tier character, since he struggled to deal with projectile camping from the likes of {{SSBB|Snake}}, {{SSBB|Falco}} and {{SSBB|Olimar}} and was heavily vulnerable to chaingrabbing, most notoriously from {{SSBB|King Dedede}}. | |||
Donkey Kong's decline started slowly, as he fell to 14th on the second tier list, and fell again to 18th on the third one, but he remained there on the fourth iteration. He slightly dropped to 20th out of 38 on the fifth tier list before going back to 18th on the sixth tier list. The seventh tier list marked Donkey Kong's lowest placing to date at 23rd out of 38, before rising to his current position of 21st out of 38 on the current tier list. While Donkey Kong struggles at high levels of play, his representation and results gathered by his playerbase have managed to secure his position as a mid tier character. In the mid tier and lower, there aren't many projectiles that heavily disrupt his approach and chaingrabbing is much less frequent, which allows him to fully take advantage of his great mobility, range and excellent endurance. | Donkey Kong's decline started slowly, as he fell to 14th on the second tier list, and fell again to 18th on the third one, but he remained there on the fourth iteration.

The [[Koopa Troopa]]s and {{SSBB|Bowser}} steal Donkey Kong's Banana Hoard. As a [[Hammer Bro.]] drives off in a [[Cargo]] which contains all the bananas, Donkey Kong watches him from a cliff. The Hammer Bro. and the [[Goomba]] aboard from the Cargo spot you shoot [[Bullet Bill]]s to Donkey Kong at him. However, {{SSBB|Diddy Kong}} comes out from a bush and expertly shoots the [[Bullet Bill]]s with his [[Peanut Popgun]]s. Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong then follow the Hammer Bro. and to the Goomba to retrieve the Banana Hoard. After following him, recover their Bananas, but they see Bowser with a strange type of gun called a [[Dark Cannon]], revealing that he is working for the [[Subspace Army]]. When Bowser charges the cannon, Donkey Kong quickly charges his [[Giant Punch]] and launches Diddy into the sky and out of the way, sacrificing himself. Bowser shoots Donkey Kong and turns him into a trophy. Later in the story, Diddy Kong, {{SSBB|Fox}} and {{SSBB|Falco}} see a [[Smash Skiff]] is carrying Donkey Kong as a [[trophy]] to the [[Isle of the Ancients]]. Falco then helps Diddy by following it with his Arwing and having the little Kong with him. Falco then does a barrel roll and drops Diddy out. Diddy fires up his [[Rocketbarrel Boost|Rocket Barrel]]s and takes out his Peanut Popguns and shoots the ship. After seeing this, {{SSBB|Captain Falcon}} and {{SSBB|Olimar}} decide to help him and jump to the Smash Skiff, where Diddy frees Donkey Kong. And all four then fight the [[Primid]]s and other enemies on the ship. | |||

The Smash Skiff takes them inside a factory producing [[Subspace Bombs]], and encounter various [[R.O.B.]]s that happen to live on the island. They later meet up with {{SSBB|Pikachu}} and {{SSBB|Samus}} where they see the [[Ancient Minister]] and a whole lot of R.O.B.s. After {{SSBB|Ganondorf}} controls the R.O.B.s into activating all of the [[Subspace Bomb]]s, the Ancient Minister is shown to be {{SSBB|R.O.B.}}, the leader of all the lesser R.O.B.s who were forced to work for the Subspace Army. R.O.B. then fights with the others. Then try remove the bombs from the R.O.B.s for that do not explode to exception from R.O.B. what do not attack them and this depressed from what the R.O.B. go to die to the burst the bombs, while Diddy Kong points that the help to remove to the R.O.B.s connected to the bombs, by R.O.B just slumps and is so depressed due to the R.O.B.s, that Donkey Kong has to carry him out. When trying to escape Captain Falcon calls for his [[Falcon Flyer]] and tries to leave the cave when [[Meta Ridley]] appears and they must fight him. After that they all meet up with the others. | |||
