In the Japanese version, Fox is now voiced by {{s|Wikipedia|Takashi Ōhara}}, reprising his role from ''Star Fox 64 3D'' and ''Star Fox Zero'', replacing {{s|wikipedia|Kenji Nojima}} from ''[[Super Smash Bros.

| | |
| Fox is ranked 8th out of 82 on the [[tier list]], placing him in S- tier and making him the highest ranking member of the [[Fighter|perfect-attendance crew]]. This is a slight improvement from his placement in ''Smash 4'', where he was ranked 7th/8th out of 54 and tied with {{SSB4|Sonic}}. Fox's biggest strengths revolve around his phenomenal movement options, stellar frame data, and high [[damage]] output, which gives him the ability to overwhelm opponents easily and allows him to have one of the best [[Neutral game|neutrals]] and advantage states in the entire game. Fox also has several ways to KO reliably thanks to his powerful and quick [[smash attack]]s and his notoriously safe [[back aerial]] at [[ledge]]. Finally, Fox's [[combo]] and [[juggling]] game also greatly benefits from universal changes made in the transition from ''Smash 4'' to ''Ultimate'', such as the game's increased speed, reduction to [[landing lag]], and [[airdodging]] nerfs.
| |
| | |
| However, Fox also has some noticeable weaknesses. His most notable weakness is his survivability, as he is one of the lightest characters in the game and has the fastest [[falling speed]] and [[gravity]] out of anyone in the roster. This means his endurance is poor compared to the rest of the cast, as he is rather susceptible to combos and potential early KOs. Finally, although Fox has several recovery options that cover a great distance, their linearity makes it easy for him to be [[Edgeguarding|edgeguarded]] continuously if the player isn't careful.
| |
| | |
| Overall, Fox's strengths outweigh his weaknesses, and he has garnered several strong results from players such as {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}}, {{Sm|Kaninabe}} and {{Sm|Paseriman}}.
| |
| | |
| ==Attributes==
| |
| Fox is a lightweight, hit-and-run type character with excellent grounded mobility and good frame data for the majority of his moveset. Fox is incredibly mobile: he possesses the sixth-fastest dashing speed, third-fastest walking speed, 33rd fastest air speed, 21st highest air acceleration, the highest falling (and thus fast falling) speed and gravity in the game, with the latter two allowing him to quickly move from the air to the ground with ease. These attributes allow him to keep up with almost any opponent while additionally making him very difficult to punish.
| |
| | |
| In terms of attack speed, almost all of Fox's moves have less than 10 frames of startup lag, which greatly helps him with approaching and comboing, while some of them are decently powerful despite their quick startup. All of his grounded moves excluding smash attacks have both low startup and ending lag, which allows them to connect and flow into each other extremely easily. All of his aerials also have quick startup lag, and some of them are able to auto-cancel from a short hop (back aerial, up aerial), or have low landing lag (neutral aerial, back aerial). Alongside his fast falling speed, this gives him a good aerial approach and shield pressure.
| |
| | |
| Another one of Fox's biggest strengths is his combo potential. Almost all of his moves can combo into each other and he even has several KO confirms. Though a majority of his combos are not as lengthy compared to other characters like {{SSBU|Sheik}}, the higher damage output makes up for it.
| |
| | |
| Fox's tilts are an important part of his combo game. Forward tilt, while mostly used for spacing, can be used as a combo starter at low to mid percentages and can start tech chases at higher percentages, giving Fox an opportunity to extend his combos if the opponent fails to tech or if the tech is read properly. Up tilt can combo into itself and can lead to other grounded moves or aerials. Down tilt is one of Fox's best combo starters despite it being difficult to connect, and can combo into most of his aerials and up smash at various percentages. Dash attack is quick and is one of his best moves for whiff punishes, with its early hit being able to combo into several moves (most notably neutral aerial) or start a 50:50 scenario into his forward aerial or up aerial, while the late hit can set up into up smash as a KO confirm at high percentages.
| |
| | |
| Fox's aerials are also a huge staple of his moveset, arguably being the most important part of his combo game. All of his aerials have either average or above-average damage output and they can combo into other aerials and some grounded moves, including smash attacks. Neutral aerial has very high speed, as well as low knockback, all of which allow it to combo into other moves even at high percentages, and allows it to serve as a reliable KO setup, with the weak hit of neutral aerial being able to lead into an up smash. Forward aerial can combo into up aerial and can drag opponents down if Fox lands before ending the move, allowing for jab lock/tech chase opportunities and can even drag the opponents down offstage, which can gimp certain characters. Back aerial can combo into grounded moves at lower percentages and is useful for shield pressure and KOing at high percentages. Up aerial deals the highest amount of damage and can combo into itself, making it a great juggling move. Additionally, it can serve as an effective KO move, which makes it arguably his most potent aerial, due to the number of moves that can combo into it. Down aerial can pressure shields and can lead into other aerials if autocanceled. The landing hit launches opponents at a low angle and can setup into up smash as a KO confirm.
| |
| | |
| His grab and throw game is below average but is nonetheless an important part of Fox's arsenal. Fox's grab is fast and has decent ending lag, but has low range, requiring Fox to be very close to the opponent. His pummel, while weak, is very fast, allowing him to slightly damage the opponent before throwing and is effective for unstaling other moves. None of his throws are true combo starters (barring down throw at low percentages if the opponent DIs in), but can help with setting up juggles and combos if the opponent's reaction is read properly.
| |
| | |
| Fox's special moves have several uses. His {{b|Blaster|Fox}}, while it lacks hitstun and deals low damage at a longer range, is quick and helps with forcing approaches while unstaling his moves without drastically reducing the effectiveness of the projectiles. [[Fox Illusion]] is one of his two recovery moves, covers a good horizontal distance and doesn't leave him helpless. It can be used to start combos or even KO outright at really high percentages with the grounded version. [[Fire Fox]] covers great distance, can be angled and deals high damage if all of the hits connect, and with the high knockback, it can stage spike reckless edge guarders. {{b|Reflector|Fox}} is quick, reflects projectiles and is one of the only reflectors that can be held indefinitely. It has intangibility and a hitbox on startup, which can help with breaking out of combos or gimping weak recoveries offstage. It also reduces Fox's falling speed, giving him landing or recovery mix-up potential.
| |
| | |
| Fox has good KO potential despite his attributes. Fox's up smash has quick startup, high knockback on clean hit, good range and even has setups into it, making it his primary KO move. Forward smash, while fairly weak at lower percentages, has decent knockback growth and end lag. It's best used for punishing the regular ledge getup because of the good range and lasting hitbox. Down smash is his quickest smash attack, which makes it useful for covering rolls. It can also [[2 frame punish|2-frame punish]] the opponents, all while sending them at a [[Semispike|semispike angle]]. Up aerial deals high knockback and can KO at reasonable percentages if the opponent is above the ground. Back aerial, while noticeably weaker compared to his fellow ''Star Fox'' characters {{SSBU|Falco}} and {{SSBU|Wolf}}, still has decent knockback and launches at a semi-spike angle, and is his safest KO move.
| |
| | |
| However, Fox has several notable weaknesses. His primary weaknesses are endurance and recovery. He's the fifth lightest character in the game, in addition to being taller than other characters in his weight class (though still relatively small) and has the highest falling speed and gravity, which makes him extremely susceptible to combos and getting KO'd early, which gives him a terrible disadvantage state and one of the worst survivabilities out of all the cast. His recovery, while covering a great distance, is nonetheless linear and predictable. Fox Illusion can't be angled and can only change the drift after the hitboxes end, which can be intercepted with most moves. Fire Fox has very slow startup and is linear, which makes him very vulnerable to stage spikes and meteor smashes and causes him to get KO'd extremely early offstage. Reflector can only stall once, which lessens the mix-up options. His air dodges have among the shortest distances in the game, making them ineffective for the recovery, and coupled with the falling speed, air dodging below the stage is almost always fatal.
| |
| | |
| Despite possessing moves with high knockback, he can struggle KOing the opponents. Up smash has high-end lag and is hard to land without a read or setup. Neutral aerial, which is used to KO confirm into up smash, can be predictable and only true combos at certain percentages without tumbling the opponent, unless it gets stale, while down aerial has high landing lag and can sometimes send the opponents at a different angle. Forward or down smash are also hard to land and deal unimpressive knockback at mid-high percentages, and the latter has low reach. Up aerial is predictable, has narrow hitboxes, can stale if used frequently and the second hit can sometimes even miss after hitting with the first one. Back aerial has a small hitbox, short duration, and is angled somewhat high, making it hard to land, especially on short characters. All of his KO moves deal unimpressive shield damage, and because the moves can stale on shield, this can make the opponent shield more often and cause his moves to KO even later. Fox Illusion stops on shield, which can make it punishable if used predictably. In addition, none of his throws are viable KO options, which further exacerbates the unreliability of KOing. Since he has high falling speed, high-end lag on his aerials and slow vertical recovery, edge guarding with Fox is risky and can put him in an even more vulnerable position. In addition, while [[rage]] can help with KOing to a certain extent, he doesn't benefit from it as much as heavier characters, who can usually survive for much longer and gain more rage in return.
| |
| | |
| Overall, Fox is a glass cannon character. He can approach the opponents with his proficient movement and attack speed along with a decent damage output for a rushdown character, which allows him to quickly deal high damage to opponents and KO them with several of his finishers. However, the player must stay unpredictable and not let himself get punished, otherwise, he himself can suffer from high damaging combos and get KO'd very early.

| ==Changes from ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''== | | ==Changes from ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''== |
| Fox has received a mix of buffs and nerfs in his transition to ''Ultimate''. His moveset has been altered in several ways that, while leaving his core playstyle relatively unchanged, have altered the way he has to execute said playstyle, and the changes to the game's engine further compound this, causing him to be a more polarized character. | | Fox has received a healthy mix of buffs and nerfs in his transition over from ''Smash 4''. All of his aerials have less landing lag, and his general mobility has seen improvements due to the game's new engine changes. His primary KO options (such as up smash) have received buffs as well, granting him access to some new kill setups that weren't possible in his previous iterations. Fox greatly benefits from the engine changes and new mechanics, with run cancelling allowing him to approach with his great grounded options and revamped air dodges making his powerful juggling options even more oppressive. In addition, the start-up time on his reflector has been cut in half, giving him access to increased edge-guarding and combo extensions. |
| | |
| Fox's buffs primarily come from his moveset's improved versatility. [[Blaster]]'s shots travel farther and the move has less endlag, granting him a far better camping tool. His primary KO options in his [[forward smash|forward]] and [[up smash]]es, as well as [[Fire Fox]], now have increased knockback, which has overall further improved his KO power. Down tilt had its knockback and angles altered, whereas dash attack has less ending lag, making both even better combo starters overall. In addition, [[Reflector]]'s startup has been cut in half and grants him [[intangibility]] (reminiscent of his ''Melee'' incarnation), allowing him to escape combos easier and edgeguard more safely.
| |
| | |
| Fox also greatly benefits from many of the changes to ''Ultimate''{{'}}s gameplay mechanics. The universal increase to horizontal mobility has especially improved his previously lackluster air speed, while making his grounded speed even faster. The ability to use any attack out of a run drastically benefits his close-ranged combat and further improves his grounded moveset's utility and combo ability, giving him far more options than he had to pressure the opponent on the ground. The universal reduction to landing lag also improves his aerial game's combo ability, but most importantly, it improves his already great safety on shield despite the reduced [[shieldstun]] on aerial attacks. Finally, the changes to [[air dodge]] mechanics notably benefit his powerful juggling options. | |
| | |
| However, Fox has also received many glaring nerfs as well, the most significant ones being to his survivability, the ability to combo into his finishers, and the ability to easily [[jostle|cross-up]]; many of the changes to gameplay mechanics further compound these issues. Fox is even lighter, now being the fifth lightest character in the game, and his gravity now matches that of his ''Melee'' incarnation, worsening his already bad endurance, while both [[Fox Illusion]] and Fire Fox travel a shorter distance and Reflector now only stalls Fox's momentum out once, making him easier to edgeguard. Combined with the ability to use only one air dodge before landing or getting hit, the smaller sizes in stages' edges, and the fact enough downwards velocity now causes opponents to be KO'd faster from the bottom blast line, Fox's survivability is much worse than before, possibly the worst in his appearances so far. Conversely, while Fox's KO potential was improved, he has also lost several KO confirms due to his moveset's worsened combo potential outside of down tilt and dash attack; [[forward tilt]]'s altered knockback reduces its combo and KO potential and almost completely removes its locking potential, one of down tilt's hitboxes that could lead into up aerial at high percentages was removed, and [[up tilt]] can no longer lead into KO setups as easily due to its altered knockback and its altered hitbox placements rendering it unable to hit opponents hanging on an edge or during their 2-frame vulnerability. The removal of [[frame canceling]] and the changes to [[reeling]] animations no longer being untechable have also drastically worsened his down aerial's combo ability.
| |
| | |
| Fox's dash attack, despite being faster, is now almost unable to cross-up opponents (unless they're small or thin) due to its higher shieldstun and the changes to jostling mechanics, and [[Fox Illusion]] can no longer bypass shields, making it much more difficult for him to recover back on-stage by crossing the opponent up, and instead making it much easier to punish him. Other nerfs also include the worsening of his already poor grab game, with his grabs having even less range, now being tied for the third shortest, [[back throw]] being worse for edgeguarding, and the faster knockback physics completely removing down throw's combo potential when combined with its unfavorable angle and Fox's slower initial dash. Up smash has lost its small sourspot in front of Fox, but its animation was made faster with the hitbox duration unchanged, which while making it easier to hit opponents behind him, it also makes the clean hit slightly harder to land; the move also no longer grants intangibility to Fox's head during startup, making it a less effective anti-air.
| |
| | |
| Lastly, the changes to [[perfect shield]]ing both benefit and hinder Fox. He arguably benefits from the revamped perfect shield the most, because of possessing very quick moves like up tilt or up smash, while perfect shield is ineffective against quick multi-hitting attacks like his down aerial. In contrast, it also makes it easier to retaliate against otherwise hard to punish moves, like his neutral aerial, forcing Fox to use his staple landing moves less predictably.
| |
| | |
| Overall, Fox is a more polarized glass cannon. Most of his tremendous strengths and advantages remain, and some of his moves have increased utility, resulting in a much more vast repertoire of versatile options; however, his key weaknesses are easier to exploit, and he has an even harder time getting out of disadvantage, meaning he has to play more carefully in order to gain or retain the advantage. The shifts to game mechanics compound both points. Regardless of these changes, it is important to note that Fox's own changes result in his viability remaining relatively unchanged, unlike other former powerful characters in ''SSB4'' (such as {{SSBU|Sheik}} and {{SSBU|Zero Suit Samus}}). As a result, despite the introduction of DLC characters and changes from game updates, Fox performs slightly better than in ''SSB4'', and he continues to be a powerful character who commonly sees use in competitive play.
| |
|
| |
|
| {{SSB4 to SSBU changelist|char=Fox}}
| | However, Fox also received some noticeable nerfs, the most significant ones being to his recovery. Fire Fox's travel distance is now shorter, Reflector only allows stalling once, and Fox Illusion no longer bypasses shields. This makes it much more difficult for him to bypass and cross-up opponents on stage, while also making it easier for him to be punished and edgeguarded. In addition, he is lighter than before, worsening his endurance. |
|
| |
|
| ==Update history==
| | Overall, Fox's tremendous strengths and advantages are now even better than they used to be, but his key weaknesses are significantly more exploitable, which makes it uncertain as to whether he was buffed or nerfed from ''Smash 4'' to ''Ultimate''. Nevertheless, his early metagame representation is still high, with players such as {{Sm|Larry Lurr}}, {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}}, {{Sm|Charlie}}, and {{Sm|ZD}} placing highly at regional and national tournaments. |
| Aside from a single nerf to his hitstun animation in update 6.0.0, Fox has been buffed slightly via game updates. Update 3.1.0 improved his neutral attack's consistency, while update 7.0.0 made him less susceptible to shield poking by adjusting his shielding animation. Update 10.1.0 granted Fox his most worthwhile buffs, as his forward and down aerials became noticeably more consistent via hitbox and knockback adjustments.
| |
|
| |
|
| Due to his buffs, Fox fares slightly better than he did at ''Ultimate''{{'}}s launch, and he continues to be generally seen as a top/high tier character.
| | ===Aesthetics=== |
| | *{{change|Fox's design is now a combination of his appearances in ''{{s|lylatwiki|Star Fox Zero}}'' and ''Super Smash Bros. 4''. His flight suit and headset are from ''Zero'', whereas the rest of his design returns from ''SSB4''. The proportions of his head have been slightly altered, and his fur is more pronounced. Fox now also has visible whiskers. Lastly, the aesthetic used in ''Ultimate'' has resulted in Fox's overall color scheme being more subdued.}} |
| | *{{change|Fox's jacket collar is smaller, and his holster has been redesigned indigo with vegas gold tints. Additionally, his headset is now entirely gray. Lastly, Fox's toe boxes are much smoother and are brick red. These changes are original to ''Ultimate''.}} |

| |neutraldesc=Two alternating jabs followed by a flurry of kicks, ending with a mid-level roundhouse kick with his opposite leg. Quick start-up time (frame 2) means that dash-canceling into jab is a solid approach option in neutral, is a good spot dodge punish option and is a reliable move for breaking non-true grounded combos. Compared to ''Smash 4'', the jab can lock and the rapid jab connects better, making it a more effective damage racking tool at almost any percentage. However, it can no longer jab cancel into other moves. Good combo finisher, most notably with early hit neutral aerial at low percentages.

| |ftiltdesc=A roundhouse kick with good startup (frame 6), very low ending lag and decent range making it good for spacing. However, it's not safe on shield if not spaced properly. Has [[transcendent priority]], which allows it to ignore or trade with other moves, but prevents it from canceling out projectiles. It can be angled up or down, both of which deal more damage and knockback than if not angled. Using this move repeatedly causes Fox to move slightly forward. Angling it down may hit the opponents hanging on the ledge. May cause [[tripping]] at low percentages. Using forward tilt at low percentages can combo into itself once more, at low-mid percentages can lead to dash attack and at mid percentages can lead to tech chase and jab lock opportunities. | | |ftiltdesc=A roundhouse kick.

| |utiltdesc=Fox plants his hands on the ground and does a scorpion kick with his right leg. It has extremely fast startup for a tilt (frame 3), which can make it a good option for surprising the opponents and is his most reliable option to use after perfect shielding. Compared to ''Smash 4'', the hitboxes are moved higher up, which makes it impossible to 2-frame punish but is better as an anti-air move. A purple trail indicates the hitbox, starting behind and ending in front of him. It's not safe on shield, making it punishable. Combos into itself along with jab, down tilt, forward tilt, up smash (at higher percents), neutral air, up air, back air, and several other moves. Fox's strongest tilt attack when sweetspotted, although it will only start KOing Mario at around 215% on Final Destination. | | |utiltdesc=Fox plants his hands on the ground and does a scorpion kick with his right leg.

| |dashdesc=A flying kick with great startup (frame 4) and low ending lag. Good approach option in neutral that can lead to a jab, up tilt, up smash, neutral air or down air follow-up. The late hit can combo into forward aerial at mid or up smash as a KO setup at higher percentages, while the early hit can follow up into forward or up aerial depending on the opponent's reaction. However, it stops on shield unless done at point-blank range, making it punishable. | | |dashdesc=A flying kick with great frame data. Good approach option in neutral that can lead to a jab or neutral air follow-up. |

| |fsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|14}} (clean), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|11}} (late) | | |fsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|14}} |
| |fsmashdesc=A butterfly kick. Fox's only non-special move that has more than 10 frames of startup (13 frames), but has decent ending lag compared to his other smash attacks, making it somewhat hard to punish on whiff, but is still punishable on shield. It has good range since Fox somersaults forward. It has a decent duration for a smash attack, making it reliable for punishing regular ledge getups. Has somewhat low base knockback for a forward smash, but decent knockback growth. KOs Mario at around 92% near the ledge and at around 127% at the center of Final Destination. The late hit is capable of hitting opponents on the ledge, while also having decent knockback near the ledge, KOing Mario at around 116% near the ledge of Final Destination, albeit failing to KO until around 160% at the center of Final Destination. | | |fsmashdesc=An outwards crescent kick. It has good range since Fox somersaults forward. Has somewhat low base knockback for a forward smash, but decent knockback growth. |

| |usmashdesc=A bicycle kick with good horizontal and great vertical range. One of Fox's primary KO moves. Very fast (frame 8), has high knockback and even has reliable KO setups to it, most notably falling late neutral aerial to up smash. However, due to the high ending lag, it is very punishable if shielded or whiffed. The late hit also has significantly weaker knockback and can only KO the opponents near the ledge at very high percentages. It can hit opponents standing on top of some platforms, like the lower platforms on Battlefield. The clean hit KOs Mario at around 107% on Final Destination. The late hit is hard to land because of up smash's short duration and launches opponents weakly at a horizontal angle. It KOs Mario at around 137% at the edge of Final Destination, and at around 180% at the center of Final Destination. | | |usmashdesc=The classic Fox bicycle kick. One of his prime kill options when used out of a fast-falling neutral air. Can hit opponents standing on top of some platforms. |

| |dsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|14}} (feet), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|12}} (legs) | | |dsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|14}} |
| |dsmashdesc=A split kick. Quick start-up (frame 6) means this move can be used to cover rolls and ledge options and is Fox's most reliable 2-frame punish move. Sends the opponent at a semi-spike angle. His legs gain intangibility the moment the hitboxes are active (frames 6-7). However, its high ending lag makes it punishable if shielded or whiffed. KOs Mario at around 116% and 159% while near the ledge and at the center of Final Destination, respectively. | | |dsmashdesc=A split kick.

| |nairdesc=A flying kick. Fox's fastest aerial attack, coming out on frame 4. Due to being a [[sex kick]], it loses power the longer it is out. However, the late hit can be useful for setting up any of his attacks at mid to high percentages, especially due to rather low landing lag (7 frames) coupled with Fox's quick falling speed and it can be relatively safe on shield if spaced properly. A great combo & pressure tool that all Fox mains would be wise to take advantage of. Auto-cancels from a full hop. Fox’s third strongest aerial when hit clean, albeit it only starts KOing Mario near the ledge of Final Destination at around 169%. | | |nairdesc=A flying kick.

| |fairdesc=Does five roundhouse kicks in quick succession. Comes out on frame 7. This move makes Fox "hover" until the move ends if used right after a jump. Good for building up damage, as opponents will be trapped within the flurry of kicks for the duration of the attack. Suffers from noticeable landing lag (18 frames) and auto-cancels in a full hop, but with strict timing. When fast-fallen, hitting an opponent with any of the first four kicks will drag them towards the ground, allowing for Fox to combo into any of his tilts and smashes upon jab-locking. It can function as a pseudo meteor smash when fast-falling offstage with the opponent before the final hit, allowing him to gimp some opponents who have used their midair jump and can even possibly lead into Reflector, making the opponent even harder to recover, but it also puts Fox at higher risk for recovering back to the stage. It can also be used as a situational KOing option while near the upper blast zone at very high percentages. | | |fairdesc=Five swiveling roundhouse kicks performed in quick succession. This move makes Fox "hover" until the move ends if used right after a jump. Good for building up damage, as opponents will be trapped within the flurry of kicks for the duration of the attack. Suffers from moderate landing lag, but auto-cancels from a full hop. When fast-fallen, hitting an opponent with any of the first four kicks will drag them towards the ground, allowing for Fox to combo into any of his tilts and smashes upon jab-locking. |
| |bairname=Reverse Spin Kick ({{ja|リバーススピンキック|Ribāsu Supin Kikku}}) | | |bairname= |
| |bairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|13}} | | |bairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|13}} |
| |bairdesc=A back kick. A good KO option at very high percentages due to decent startup (9 frames) low landing lag (9 frames), a semi-spike angle, and somewhat high knockback. It has a great auto-cancel window (frame 18), allowing Fox to use back aerial at the peak of short hop and fast fall while still auto-canceling before landing, making it a good pressure and spacing option and is relatively safe on shield if hit with the tip of the move, making the move somewhat hard to punish. Also great for catching horizontal recovery options, but it leaves Fox vulnerable offstage due to very high ending lag and Fox's high falling speed. It also has poor range and is angled high, making it somewhat hard to land. Fox can combo out of back air at low percentages due to its very generous autocancel window. KOs Mario at the ledge of Final Destination at around 118%, and around 155% at the center of Final Destination. | | |bairdesc=A back kick. Good pressure and kill option due to low landing lag, low angle, and high knockback. Also great for catching horizontal recovery options. Fox can combo out of back air at low percents. |
| |uairname=McCloud Flip ({{ja|テイル＆レッグ|Teiru ando Reggu}}, ''Tail & Leg'') | | |uairname=McCloud Flip |
| |uairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|5}} (hit 1), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|10}} (hit 2) | | |uairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|5}} (hit 1), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|10}} (hit 2) |
| |uairdesc=From a mid-air somersault, Fox attacks above him with a tail sweep followed by a heel kick. Comes out on frame 9. It can combo into itself and is great for juggling opponents while racking up quick damage. If hit with the tip of the first hit, there's a chance that the second hit will miss. While it can auto-cancel from a short hop, it can only be done on the first frame Fox jumps after a [[jumpsquat]]. Due to lower landing lag (13 frames) compared to ''Smash 4'' and the first hit of up aerial having set knockback, landing only the first hit on the grounded opponent can lead to other moves at any percentage, most notably up smash. Fox's strongest aerial in terms of knockback, and can KO Mario at his full jump height at around 125% and can even KO Mario on the ground starting at 143% on Final Destination if both hits connect in both cases. | | |uairdesc=From a midair somersault, Fox attacks above him with a tail sweep followed by a heel kick. Can combo into itself and is great for juggling opponents while racking up quick damage. |
| |dairname=Air Drill ({{ja|エアドリル|Ea Doriru}}) | | |dairname= |

| |dairdesc=A corkscrew kick that hits multiple times in quick succession. The move auto-cancels almost immediately after its final hitbox ends, and has good startup (frame 5), making it useful for punishing mis-spaced moves out of shield and for getting Fox from the ledge back on stage. The last hit deals moderate diagonal knockback. It is a very useful combo starter, both with the landing hit and the final hit when auto-cancelled. When autocancelled, the opponent is launched diagonally upward and Fox can freely follow up with another aerial of his choice. When using its landing hitbox, the move can combo into tilts, jab, and into itself at low-mid percentages, and confirm a KO into his up smash at high percentages. While it has high landing lag (17 frames), it can be used as a mix-up in case the opponent expects and wants to perfect shield the neutral aerial or to shield poke. There's a chance the opponent will fall out of this move. | | |dairdesc=A drill kick that hits multiple times in quick succession. Auto-cancels from a full hop, making it useful for reading jumps. The last hit deals low knockback. The landing hit launches opponents away and at high percentages, a running up smash can be used as an immediate follow-up. |

| |fthrowdesc=Releases the opponent and quickly performs a cross, launching them forward. It can be used for tech chasing at mid percentages or putting the opponents offstage. Fox's strongest throw, but fails to KO Mario until around 212% at the very edge of {{SSBU|Final Destination}}. | | |fthrowdesc=Releases the opponent and quickly performs a cross, launching them forward. |
| |bthrowname=Close Range Blaster H ({{ja|クローズレンジブラスターＨ|Kurōzu Renji Burasutā Ecchi}}) | | |bthrowname= |
| |bthrowdmg=2% (throw), 2% (Blaster shots) | | |bthrowdmg=2% (throw), 2% (Blaster shots) |
| |bthrowdesc=Throws the opponent backward and shoots them with three rapid shots from his Blaster. Due to its high angle and very weak knockback, it's not great at putting the opponents offstage. It can be used to set up tech chase on platforms at various percentages. | | |bthrowdesc=Throws the opponent backward and shoots them with three rapid shots from his Blaster. |

| |uthrowdesc=Throws the opponent upward and shoots them with three rapid shots from his Blaster. It can be used to put the opponent on a platform or to follow up with up air if the opponent's reaction is read properly.

| |dthrowdesc=Slams the opponent onto the ground and fires three rapid, point-blank shots at them with his Blaster. Less reliable as a combo starter compared to ''Smash 4'' due to the changes of knockback, angle, hitstun and Fox's slower initial dash speed. Can follow up with an up smash, back air, neutral air, or forward air at low-mid percents depending on opponent's DI and/or if the opponent's reaction is read properly. | | |dthrowdesc=Slams the opponent onto the ground and fires three rapid, point-blank shots at them with his Blaster.

The Blaster itself has relatively low ending lag and the projectiles have [[transcendent priority]], which makes it good at forcing approaches at long distances. The Blaster's lasers are fired rapidly but do not make the opponent flinch and they lose power the farther they travel. Slightly less lag while used in the air. It can be used for camping and is an excellent move for punishing shield breaks or very laggy moves (like [[Rest]]) because of the lack of hitstun. | | |nsdesc=Takes his Blaster out of its holster and fires at the opponent.

Stops on shields, making it punishable. The end of the grounded version can function as a KO setup into his up aerial at around 100% on middleweights. The grounded version can also function as a situational KOing move, KOing Mario at around 174% on Final Destination. | | |ssdesc=Dashes forward at a blindingly fast speed, leaving behind afterimages.

Travels a long distance, but has very high startup for both his charging flames and dash (20 and 43 frames, respectively), in addition to it being completely linear making Fox widely open for edgeguards. The trajectory of the move can be chosen before Fox launches himself, with up to 8 angles to choose from. After the move ends, Fox becomes helpless. It can be used to KO at high percents; however, this is risky due to the high ending lag. It can also stage spike reckless edgeguarders who got hit with Fire Fox. | | |usdesc=Engulfs himself in an aura of [[flame]] before launching himself in a fiery tackle.

It stalls Fox in the air, giving him a landing or a recovery mix-up, though he can only do it once until he lands or gets hit.

| ''See also: [[:Category:Fox players (SSBU)]]''
| | =={{SSBU|Classic Mode}}: Spaceborne Smash== |
| | | Fox's opponents are all space travelers. |
| *{{Sm|Kaninabe|Japan}} - A newer player compared to other Fox players, but established himself as the second-best Fox player in the world in the post-online metagame. His best results took place in 2023, where he notably placed 5th at {{Trn|Kagaribi 11}} and 7th at both {{Trn|Maesuma TOP 11}} and {{Trn|Port Priority 8}}, ultimately ranking 35th on the [[LumiRank 2023]] as the first new Fox player in the top 50 since the early metagame.
| |
| *{{Sm|Light|USA|p=Connecticut}} - The undisputed greatest Fox player of all-time and a top 10 player for most of competitive ''Ultimate'', peaking at 3rd on the [[OrionRank 2022]]. He is the only Fox player who has won multiple majors, winning {{Trn|Super Smash Con: Fall Fest}}, {{Trn|MomoCon 2022}}, {{Trn|LVL UP EXPO 2023}}, {{Trn|Litvitational 2}}, and {{Trn|Litvitational 3}}.
| |
| *{{Sm|Lui$|USA}} - Primarily played Fox in 2019 and was one of the best Fox players in the world during this time, peaking at 39th on the [[Fall 2019 PGRU]]. He was best known for placing 7th at {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2019}}, where he also defeated {{Sm|Shuton}} and {{Sm|Kola}}; he had also placed 7th at {{Trn|2GG: Nightmare on Smashville}}. He dropped Fox for {{SSBU|Palutena}} during the online metagame, and has seldom used Fox since.
| |
| *{{Sm|Paseriman|Japan}} - The second best Fox player of all-time, and the first Fox player to win a major, doing so at {{Trn|Sumabato SP 11}}. He was also the only Fox player who challenged Light's title for best Fox player, doing so in the first few months of 2020 thanks to a string of strong performances such as 4th at {{Trn|EVO Japan 2020}} and 9th at {{Trn|Frostbite 2020}}. He was never able to reach the same consistency since, although he remains one of the best Fox players in Japan, notably placing 3rd at {{Trn|Kagaribi 6}} and 4th at {{Trn|L'Odyssée - Chant I}} in the post-pandemic metagame.
| |
| *{{Sm|RyuKai|France}} - The best Fox player in Europe, although he briefly mained {{SSBU|Wolf}} from late-2021 to early-2023. His breakout event was placing 2nd at {{Trn|Smash Contest: DoKomi 2020}} while double-eliminating Europe's then-#3 player {{Sm|Space}}, and he has since placed well at several notable European events, such as 17th at {{Trn|ICARUS 2023}} and 25th at {{Trn|King Of Fields 95 3}}.
| |
| *{{Sm|ZD|USA}} - One of the best Fox players in the world in the first few months of the competitive scene, placing 5th at {{Trn|Glitch 6}} and 7th at {{Trn|Let's Make Moves}}, as well as defeating {{Sm|Tweek}} at {{Trn|Ultimate Nimbus}} and {{Sm|Zackray}} at {{Trn|Frostbite 2019}}. However, many of his strongest results took place right before the [[Spring 2019 PGRU]] season, and as such, he was only ranked in the Area 51 during this time. He continued to place well after this period, having also picked up {{SSBU|Wolf}} as a co-main and placing 9th at {{Trn|Glitch 7 - Minus World}} defeating {{Sm|Cosmos}} with Fox, but was never able to reach the heights he saw during the game's early months.
| |
| | |
| ===Tier placement and history===
| |
| In stark contrast to pre-release ''Ultimate'', where it was speculated that he would be an unviable character, Fox initially saw a very positive reception due to all of the indirect benefits he received from the game's engine, as well as phenomenal results from professionals such as {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}} and {{Sm|ZD}}. Light especially contributed to this reception, being a top 10 player in the first year of ''Ultimate'' and consistently making top 8 at major events. This led to very high opinions on the character, and many players labeled him as a top 5 character.
| |
| | |
| However, the second half of 2019 saw a noticeable decline in Fox's results as his weaknesses, such as his exploitable recovery and his fragile weight, became more apparent. Players either began performing worse with Fox or began picking up other characters to complement him; most notably, the second half of 2019 saw some of Light's worst results of his career, while ZD's results took a noticeable hit and he also began playing {{SSBU|Wolf}}. Despite these negatives, there were still some positives for the character during this time, such as several strong results coming from Light and the rise of {{Sm|Lui$}} in mid-2019 and {{Sm|Paseriman}} in late-2019, with the latter most notably putting Light's title of "best Fox player" in contention. Nevertheless, Fox's worse representation led many players to rank him lower on their tier lists, with Light himself believing the character was only high tier at best.
| |
| | |
| Following the end of the online metagame, Fox's results were initially somewhat underwhelming, as his best players did not initially place as well: Light's first offline event ended in an underwhelming 17th place at {{Trn|Mega Smash Mondays 240}}; Paseriman's performances had also notably slipped throughout 2021; and Lui$ had dropped Fox for Palutena. However, this did not last long, as Light was not only able to reclaim his former glory, but was able to surpass it. In 2022, Light saw a slew of top 8 finishes that landed him as one of the most consistent top level players in the post-online metagame. In addition, Paseriman was able to regain some of his former glory (such as 3rd at {{Trn|Kagaribi 6}}), although he remains rather inconsistent (such as an underwhelming 257th at {{Trn|Umebura SP 9}}). Both players showcased that Fox's oppressive nature and fast speed remained rather threatening in the metagame and were able to outweigh his weaknesses, leading him to be ranked 5th on the first tier list. The following year continued Fox's strong results: although Light's results saw a small slip, on the other hand, the year saw {{Sm|Kaninabe}} rise to the top level, as despite being somewhat inconsistent, he was able to reach peaks on a similar caliber to Light's that year. As such, Fox remained a top tier character on the second list, although slipping to 8th due to the rise of some characters below him.
| |
| | |
| In the online metagame, characters that require precision and strict reaction times are considered less viable. As a result, most Fox players opted to play other characters or decided not to play online, leading Fox to have one of the worst representations in the online metagame out of all top tiers.

As a Fighter Spirit, it cannot be used in Spirit Battles and is purely aesthetic. Each Fighter Spirit has an alternate version that replaces them with their artwork in ''Ultimate''. |
| | |
| Additionally, Fox makes an appearance in a support spirit.

| *If Fox wins a match with Falco present, there's a chance he will say, "Better luck next time, Falco!" in one of his victory animations. However, this line was strangely not present in his [[Sound Test]], up until the update 8.0.0. He shares this distinction with Wolf, {{SSBU|Simon}}, {{SSBU|Palutena}}, and {{SSBU|Lucina}}. | | *Fox retains his Wolf costume, despite {{SSBU|Wolf}} also being a separate playable character. This contrasts with {{SSBU|Samus}}, {{SSBU|Peach}}, and {{SSBU|Ike}}, whose {{SSBU|Dark Samus}}, {{SSBU|Daisy}}, and {{SSBU|Chrom}} costumes were replaced when the latter three were made [[echo fighters]] (also making them similar to Mario losing his Wario costume). |
| *Fox is the only character whose unlock column for Classic Mode includes at least one character who debuted in each game in the ''Smash'' series (whereas Mario and Kirby have no newcomers from ''Ultimate'' unlocked in their columns).
| | |
| **Not counting characters with opposite gender alternate costumes (like {{SSBU|Robin}} and {{SSBU|Corrin}}), Fox has the most female fighters in his unlock column, as his column features Peach, Daisy, and {{SSBU|Zero Suit Samus}} for unlockable characters.
| | *If Fox wins a match with Falco present, there's a chance he will say, "Better luck next time, Falco!", in one of his victory animations. However, this line is strangely not found in his [[Sound Test]]. |
| *Fox is the only starter in ''Ultimate'' who can perform a [[Smash Taunt]].
| |
| *Despite Fox receiving an update on his design, the afterimages of his [[Fox Illusion]] still use his design from ''Smash 4''. This is shared with Falco's [[Falco Phantasm]].
| |
| *Fox's fight with Wolf on Venom in his Classic Mode references his team's final fight with Star Wolf in ''Star Fox 64'' before Fox goes on to fight Andross.
| |
| **Additionally, his fight against [[Master Hand]] and [[Crazy Hand]] references the battle against Andross from the same game, where Fox must target his hands to attack him. | |
| *Prior to 7.0.0, if Fox blocked an attack with his [[shield]], he would revert to his shielding pose from ''Smash 4''. This also happens with several other characters.
| |
| **The pose itself affected Fox's hurtbox positioning, as it makes him stand upright rather than slouch, which [https://www.twitter.com/LocusSK/status/1205947527847010304 resulted in making it easier for opponents to shield stab vertically with a smaller shield].
| |
| *Fox's entry on the official ''Super Smash Blog'' makes a reference to his down taunt in previous games, where he shouts "Come on!". However, in the context of ''Ultimate'', this reference is lost, as Fox doesn't say "Come on!" during his down taunt anymore, now saying "Come at me!".
| |
| *Fox is the only starter who unlocks all of the unlockable characters from their universe in their unlock tree.
