{{cquote|''A flying resident of Dream Land who can copy the moves and appearances of foes.''|cite=''Brawl'' manual description}}
'''Kirby''' ({{ja|カービィ|Kābī}}, ''Kirby'') returns as a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. He was confirmed for ''Brawl'' in the first preview shown at May 2006's [[E3]] show.  Of all the characters shown, Kirby appears to be almost completely unchanged graphically. He is once again voiced by Makiko Ōmoto, using some recycled voice clips from ''[[Melee]]'', while providing some new, slightly lower-pitched voice clips for him.

He ranks 20th on the current [[tier list]] at the top of mid tier, which is a drastic improvement over his last place ranking in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''. Kirby has one of the strongest combo abilities in ''Brawl'', as he has many great setup moves, and attacks that string together well. Additionally, Kirby possesses a strong [[grab]] game, with an above average grab range, two great setup throws, and a throw that can even KO (which is rare among characters in ''Brawl''). Kirby also has a far reaching and generally safe [[recovery]], disproportionately far [[disjointed hitbox|disjointed]] [[reach]] in his attacks, fast and solid tilts, an all-purpose attack in his [[back aerial]], solid [[edge guarding]] capabilities, and both fast and very powerful finishers (with his [[forward smash]] being especially effective). However, Kirby suffers from slow movement speed, which when combined with his lack of a solid projectile, creates difficulty [[approach]]ing and dealing with opposing [[camping]]. Additionally, with his very light [[weight]] and poor [[momentum cancelling]] abilities, Kirby has one of the worst endurances. Kirby also has his power taper off greatly outside his finishers (giving opponents very high survival potential if Kirby can't land his finishers), and poor to mediocre aerials outside his back aerial. Overall, Kirby has above average matchups (with generally poor [[matchup]]s against top/high tier characters, most notably, being countered by three of the four best characters), and has achieved average [[tournament]] results.

==Attributes==
Kirby is a small, lightweight character. His small size allows him to avoid many attacks (his initial [[dashing]] animation can go underneath {{SSBB|Pit}}'s [[Palutena's Arrow]] when not aimed). He is also able to [[crouch]] underneath attacks, which can be used to his advantage against tall characters such as {{SSBB|R.O.B.}} and {{SSBB|Ganondorf}}. His light weight is both advantageous and disadvantageous; he is less vulnerable to [[chain throw]]s (including {{SSBB|King Dedede}}'s [[down throw]]), but he also gets launched farther when hit, making him easier to KO. He also has poor [[momentum canceling]] abilities, with slow falling speeds, and his fastest aerial attack, his [[up aerial]], is only slightly shorter than his [[air dodge]]. His momentum canceling abilities, combined with his light weight, give him one of the worst survivabilities in the game. However, he makes up for this with a safe and one of the longest-reaching [[recovery|recoveries]], with five midair [[jump]]s and [[Final Cutter]] to help him return to the stage. This has made Kirby a popular choice for beginners to learn with. His multiple jumps also give him good [[edgeguarding]] potential. Kirby has above average reach in his attacks for a character of his size, with many [[disjointed hitbox]]es, and a strong [[combo]] ability, with his [[forward throw]], [[forward tilt]], [[up tilt]], and up aerial all being great damage rackers and setups. He also has high [[KO]] power with good finishers, with his [[smash attack]]s, [[back aerial]], {{b|Hammer|move}}, and [[Stone]] all being able to KO opponents (although his back aerial stales quickly and his Hammer and Stone are laggy and generally require good reads to land). Kirby lacks a solid projectile, and his only projectile, the wave produced from Final Cutter, is slow and predictable. This complicates matchups against [[camp]]y characters with solid projectiles, such as {{SSBB|Falco}} and Pit. Kirby's biggest problem is his poor mobility. He has only the 25th fastest [[walking]] speed, the 28th fastest [[dash]]ing speed, the second lowest jumping height, a slow [[air speed]], and a slow [[falling speed]]. His poor air speed prevents him from being able to maneuver in the air well despite being an air-based character (his back aerial is his most used attack and all of his throws send his opponent upward), limiting his edgeguarding ability, and combined with his poor dashing speed and lack of a solid projectile, creates difficulty approaching and dealing with opposing camping.

One of Kirby's strong aspects is his ground game. His ground attacks have good range, start quickly, and end quickly as well. His forward tilt is a versatile ground attack that is good for [[spacing]]. His up tilt is one of the fastest up tilts in the game, has disproportionately long range, and is a good [[juggling|juggler]] and setup move at low percents. His [[down tilt]] has a chance to [[trip]] opponents, creating additional setups. His [[forward smash]] delivers high knockback and has low startup [[lag]] for such a powerful attack. It is considered his best KO move, along with his back aerial. His [[up smash]] is also a powerful finisher. However, it has a sourspot behind Kirby that cannot reliably KO. His [[down smash]] covers both sides, and delivers powerful vertical knockback. It also delivers horizontal knockback at the tips of his feet, making it good for edgeguarding.

Kirby also has a strong [[grab]] and [[throw]] game as well. He has a fast grab with above average range. His [[pummel]] is very quick and can deal some extra damage before a throw. His [[forward throw]] can lead to combos that can deal over 40%, depending on the weight and falling speed of the character. His [[back throw]] is useful for getting opponents off of the stage, and his [[up throw]] can even KO at high percents. Kirby's [[down throw]] is a good damage-racker, and is able to [[chain throw]] [[fastfaller]]s at low percents. However, its ending lag hinders its combo and setup potential, though it is still decent.

Kirby's [[special move]]s have varying degrees of usefulness. His [[neutral special move]], {{b|Inhale|Kirby}}, gives him the unique ability to [[List of Copy Abilities|copy]] the neutral special moves of his opponents. He can use this to cover some of his weak areas, such as a lack of a solid projectile. However, the Copy Ability can be lost rather easily if he is hit hard enough. Kirby can also perform [[Kirbycide]] by walking off the stage with the opponent in his mouth. He can also spit out characters with poor recoveries below the stage, where the opponent is unlikely to recover, and Kirby, with his good recovery, can easily get back onto the stage. His [[side special move]], {{b|Hammer|move}}, is a powerful attack and good finisher, but it has high startup lag. When used in the air, the first hit has less startup lag, and the second hit is a powerful [[semi-spike]], making it a good edgeguarding tool. His [[up special move]], [[Final Cutter]], is his primary [[recovery]] move, and produces a shockwave upon landing, creating his only normal projectile. However, it can be [[edgehog]]ged rather easily, it is too slow to be used effectively for [[camping]], and experienced players will be able to shield the wave without much difficulty. When Kirby descends from Final Cutter, a [[meteor smash]] hitbox is produced, making it useful for edge-guarding from above. Kirby can also perform "[[Sacrificial KO|Cuttercide]]" by using Final Cutter in midair and bringing down an opponent, where both players will usually die. His [[down special move]], [[Stone]], is powerful and can KO at high percents and leaves him invulnerable to attacks, but it has high ending lag, is predictable, and an opponent can [[punish]] him with a grab. It is useful as a surprise KO move, and on stages with [[swim|water]], where he can easily land a hit on swimming opponents.

Kirby's best aerial attack by far is his [[back aerial]], one of his most versatile and useful attacks and is a staple part of his [[metagame]]. It has low startup and ending lag, almost no [[landing lag]], is a good edgeguarding tool, can be used for [[Wall of Pain]] techniques, and can KO at high percents. Kirby players commonly approach by jumping while facing away from the opponent, getting closer, and using a back aerial when the opponent comes in range. Unfortunately, a wary opponent will be able to shield and punish rather easily. However, despite his strong back aerial and air-based play, the rest of his aerial attacks are poor. Outside of his back aerial, his aerial attacks suffer from a combination of high startup and ending lag, poor knockback, and poor range. His [[forward aerial]] is not particularly useful; all three hits will sometimes not lead into each other, depending on the opponent's position, and can be [[SDI]]'ed out of. It also has poor knockback, and the back aerial is considered superior for most uses. His [[up aerial]] is a decent juggler and has good combo potential, but its power was [[nerf]]ed from ''Melee''; it can no longer KO reliably under 150% unless near the upper [[blast line]]. It also has noticeable, albeit small, startup lag. His [[down aerial]] is a meteor smash, and is useful for "dragging down" opponents recovering vertically, and Kirby can easily recover. However, it has high startup lag, and is weak for a meteor smash, so it's not very effective if Kirby does not land many hits. His [[neutral aerial]] is his worst aerial and is often considered one of the worst aerial attacks in ''Brawl''. It has incredibly high ending lag, mediocre knockback, and poor range. The ending lag makes it impractical for offstage use. However, it is not completely useless; it has no [[landing lag]], and can be used as a air-to-ground transition, and can potentially be used as a setup for tilt attacks. Kirby can also use his side special move, Hammer, as an aerial attack, since it has powerful knockback, and the second hit is a semi-spike, making it useful for edgeguarding. However, the small hitbox is difficult to land and it leaves Kirby vulnerable if he misses. Kirby's poor air attacks outside of his back aerial, combined with his slow falling speed, make him prone to aerial juggling, and complicates matchups against characters who can fight well in the air, such as {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}, and characters with good juggling abilities, such as {{SSBB|Zero Suit Samus}}.

Overall, a competent Kirby player can utilize his strengths, such as his great combo ability, which, when combined with moves such as his solid tilts and back aerial, make him a competent force. Despite this, Kirby has weaknesses, in particular his poor mobility and approach options, that bring him down as a character.

==Changes from ''Melee'' to ''Brawl''==
Possibly due to being considered by many the worst character in ''Melee'', Kirby has been significantly [[buff]]ed in the transition to ''Brawl'', and many of the flaws that severely crippled him have been addressed. Kirby has seen significant improvements to his aerial game, his recovery, his grab, and his hitboxes/range. The changes in mechanics also helped out Kirby as he still maintains a strong combo game despite the introduction of [[hitstun canceling]], and the introduction of tripping benefits some of his moves such as his down tilt. The changes to [[lock]]s also benefits him as he can use his jab and down tilt to lock his opponents and build up a lot of damage. Lastly, the overall slower pace of the game combined with his improved range makes it a lot harder for his opponents to zone him out. 

Despite his buffs, he also received a few [[nerf]]s, mainly to his damage output as well as the frame data on some of his moves. Kirbycide can also no longer kill his victim first, making [[sacrificial KO]]s a much larger risk.

Nevertheless, Kirby has been significantly buffed overall, resulting in him going from arguably the worst character in ''Melee'' to an average character in ''Brawl''.

**{{nerf|It deals less damage (10% → 6%/5%), has a shorter duration (frames 4-7 → 4-6), has reduced base knockback (40 → 30) and no longer [[semi-spike]]s (20° → 361°).}}
***{{buff|These changes however allow the move to trip and it has gained a 35% [[trip]]ping chance. If the move trips, it has an inescapable grab followup if the trip occurs close enough to the opponent.}}
*[[Dash attack]]:
**{{change|Kirby has a new dash attack: the Break Spin from the Yo-yo ability.}}
**{{buff|It deals more damage (8% → 14%), has less ending lag (FAF 60 → 48), and has more combo ability.}}

**{{buff|Forward smash has less startup lag with a longer duration (frames 13-15 (clean)/16-21 (late) → 12-16/17-21).}}
**{{buff|Its late hit deals more knockback on all angled variants (18 (base), 96 (scaling) → 25/(96/94) improving its KO potential especially the up angled version.}}
**{{buff|Unangled forward smash's clean hit deals much more knockback (24 (base), 96 (scaling) → 38/98), significantly improving its KO potential and going from the 6th weakest forward smash in '' Melee'' to a forward smash with above average power.}}
**{{change|Its angles have been altered (361° (clean)/75° (late) → 38°/73°).}}
**{{buff|Upward angled forward smash's sweetspot deals more damage (15% → 16%) and knockback (24 (base), 96 (scaling) → 38/100).}}

**{{buff|It now grants intangibility to Kirby's feet.}}
**{{nerf|It has more startup lag (frame 13 → 14), the early hit has reduced knockback (30 (base), 118 (scaling) → 34/100) and the late hit deals less damage (13%/12% → 12%/11%) with no compensation on its knockback.}}
*[[Down smash]]:

**{{nerf|It is no longer interruptible giving it more ending lag (FAF 50 → 56).}}
**{{change|Its late hit no longer deals consistent damage (10% → 11%/9%).}}

===Aerial attacks===
**{{buff|All of Kirby's aerials have decreased landing lag (15 frames → 9 (neutral/back/up), 20 frames → 13 (forward), 20 frames → 15 (down)) although due to the removal of [[L-canceling]], their landing lag was not fully compensated.}}
*[[Neutral aerial]]:
**{{buff|Neutral aerial has received an new early hitbox which deals more damage (10% → 12%) (this hit exists in ''Melee'' but does not correctly spawn), improving its edgeguarding potential and giving it KO potential at very high percents at the ledge.}}
**{{nerf|It has significantly increased ending lag (FAF 50 → 73) and [[auto-cancel]]s much later (frame 38 → 56), making it riskier to use offstage. Despite Kirby's lower grabity and slower falling speed, this also causes it to autocancel too late to allow it to autocancel in a short hop.}}
*[[Forward aerial]]:
**{{buff|Forward aerial's hits connect more reliably due to the first two hits having larger hitboxes and less knockback (30 (base), 70 (scaling) → 35/50 (hit 1), 28/30 (hit 2)). It can now also auto-cancel in a short hop due to Kirby's slower falling speed and lower gravity despite auto-canceling later (frame 38 → 41). The final hit also has a much larger hitbox which now covers Kirby's whole body.}} 
**{{nerf|It deals less damage (5% (hits 1 & 2), 8% (hit 3), 16% (total) → 4% (hit 1), 3% (hit 2), 5% (hit 3), 12% (total)) and the third hit's knockback scaling wasn't fully compensated (130 → 138). It also has more ending lag (FAF 40 → 44).}}
*[[Back aerial]]:
**{{buff|Back aerial is a better [[wall of pain]] due to Kirby's superior aerial mobility. It also has larger hitboxes (6.472u/6.132u → 7u/6u (clean), 5.2u/4.4u → 6u/6u (late)).}}
**{{buff|It greatly benefits from the introduction of [[reverse aerial rush]] making it a much more viable approach option.}}
**{{nerf|It deals less damage (14% → 12% (clean), 10% → 9% (late)) although its knockback was compensated (10 (base), 100 (scaling) → 20/105 (clean), 100 (scaling) → 110 (late)).}} 
**{{nerf|It has a shorter duration (frames 6-20 → 6-14) and more ending lag (FAF 36 → 41).}}
*[[Up aerial]]:
**{{buff|Up aerial has a much bigger hitbox making it significantly easier to land and it has less startup lag with a longer duration (frames 11-13 → 10-15).}}
**{{nerf|It has more ending lag (FAF 36 → 40) and auto-cancels later (frame 17 → 22).}}
**{{change|It deals less damage (15% → 10%) and knockback (30 (base), 100 (scaling) → 20/98), improving its combo ability, but significantly hindering its KO potential. It also now launches opponents vertically instead of horizontally (361° → 70°) improving its juggling potential but hindering its edgeguarding potential.}}
*[[Down aerial]]:
**{{buff|Down aerial is more effective at meteor smashing opponents due to the changes to [[meteor canceling]], Kirby's lower falling speed, and with the introduction of the [[footstool jump]], can be easily comboed into a move that sends the opponent down farther. It also has much larger hitboxes.}} 
**{{buff|The last hit of comes out slightly faster (frame 33 → 32). The landing hit also has a longer duration (2 frames → 3).}}
**{{nerf|Each hit of deals less damage (3% → 2%) reducing its total damage output (16% → 12%). Its knockback was also not fully compensated (30 (base), 100 (scaling) → 20/107) hindering its edgeguarding potential especially at lower percents.}}

===Throws/other attacks===
*[[Grab]]s:
**{{buff|Both standing and dash grabs have less startup lag (frame 7 (standing)/frame 11 (dash) → 6/10).}}
*[[Pummel]]:
**{{buff|Pummel is much faster (30 frames → 9) no longer being the slowest in the game.}}
**{{nerf|It deals less damage (3% → 1%).}}
*{{change|Forward, back and up throws can no longer be used as a [[sacrificial KO]]. This hinders their utility but increases their safety as Kirby can no longer accidentally self destruct with them. This is further complimented by the fact that opponents cannot escape Kirby's forward or back throws anymore.}}
*[[Forward throw]]:
**{{buff|Kirby no longer loses all of his jumps after his forward throw.}}
**{{buff|Opponents can no longer escape during the middle of the animation.}}
**{{buff|It has much more combo ability at lower percents due to the changes to [[DI]] and the inability for opponents to escape abruptly.}}
*[[Back throw]]:
**{{buff|Opponents can no longer escape during the middle of the animation.}}
*[[Up throw]]:
**{{buff|Kirby no longer loses all of his jumps after his up throw.}}
**{{buff|The universally decreased falling speeds restore some of up throw's KO power.}}
**{{buff|If Kirby uses his up throw under a platform, he will land on it, significantly improving its KO potential on stages with platforms.}} 
*[[Down throw]]:
**{{buff|Down throw deals more damage (0% (hits 1-9)/1% (hit 10)/7% (throw/total) → 1% (hits 1-10)/2% (throw)/12% (total)) and no longer puts opponents into [[tumble]] at lower percents.}}
**{{buff|It has much more combo ability at lower percents due to the changes to [[DI]].}}
**{{nerf|It has much higher knockback scaling (45 → 140) hindering its combo and chaingrabbing potential.}}

===Special moves===
*{{b|Inhale|Kirby}}:
**{{buff|Kirby can now [[B-reverse]] Inhale (along with many of his copy abilities).}}
**{{buff|Inhale can eat items and has slightly improved range with a vacuum, which also improves his defensive options on the ground and in the air.}}
**{{nerf|[[Sacrificial KO]]s now KO Kirby and his victim at the same time, no longer allowing Kirby to escape after the opponent is KO'd. Inhale's collateral damage has been decreased across the board; many characters deal 1% or 2% less damage when spit, while Fox and Falco deal 4% and 3% less respectively. Only the damage of a spit Kirby is unchanged (though Young Link and Toon Link also deal the same damage).}}
**{{bugfix|Kirby's [[shrink glitch]] from {{SSBB|Yoshi}}'s [[Egg Lay]] has been removed.}}
*{{b|Hammer|move}}:
**{{buff|Kirby can now B-reverse Hammer.}}
*Grounded:
**{{buff|Hammer's sourspot is much harder to connect with as the sweetspot now takes priority over the sourspot and the sourspot deals more damage (16% → 18%) and significantly higher knockback scaling (50 → 70).}}
**{{nerf|It has more startup lag with a shorter duration (frames 22-28 → 24-25), has less horizontal reach, and its sweetspot has less knockback scaling (76 → 72).}}
**{{change|Its angle has been altered (60° → 55°).}}
*Aerial:
**{{change|The aerial variant functions differently, being two strong horizontal swings instead of a multi-hitting vertical loop swing.}}
**{{buff|It deals more damage (4% (early loop), 2% (late loop) → 17%/13% (hit 1), 15%/10% (hit 2)) and knockback (40/30 (set), 100 (scaling) → 65/50 (base), 75/70 (scaling) (hit 1), 60/70 (hit 2)) giving Kirby access to an aerial KO option and a semi-spike, as well as an anti-edgeguard tool.}}
**{{buff|It grants some momentum when used in the air, improving Kirby's recovery.}}
**{{buff|It has less ending lag (FAF 69 → 50).}}
**{{nerf|It has less vertical reach and both hits of do not link into each other as reliably as before.}}
**{{nerf|It has more startup lag with a shorter duration (frames 7-46 → 17-18/34-35) and more landing lag (16 frames → 27).}}
*[[Final Cutter]]:
**{{buff|[[Final Cutter]] is faster and travels more horizontal distance, improving its recovery potential. The [[meteor smash]] produced on descent now lasts for as long as Kirby falls, instead of just for the first few frames.}}
**{{nerf|It requires stricter timing to be reversed. Additionally, Kirby now becomes helpless when pushed off a ledge just before the end of Final Cutter's landing animation.}}
*[[Stone]]:
**{{buff|Stone has higher knockback scaling (55 → 70) and produces an additional hitbox upon landing. The grounded version also now has a hitbox which is a [[semi-spike]] which deals 14% and is capable of locking and tripping opponents There is also less ending lag upon cancellation (FAF 31 → 28).}} 
**{{nerf|Stone cannot be cancelled as early (frame 48 → 54).}}
**{{change|Kirby no longer vocalizes when exiting out of his Stone form, being replaced by a sound effect.}}
*[[Cook Kirby]]:
**{{change|Kirby has a [[Final Smash]]: [[Cook Kirby]]. He puts on a chef hat and brings out a spatula and a frying pan, and he sucks nearby opponents, items, and projectiles into a cauldron where he then proceeds to cook them. It deals 34% damage with weak knockback and can generate more [[item]]s.}}

|nairdmg=12% (clean), 10% (mid), 8% (mid-late), 6% (late)
|nairdesc=Kirby spins in place, dealing damage with his arms and legs. Has incredibly high ending lag, making it near unusable offstage, and delivers mediocre knockback and range. Usually to put some space between the opponent. Has no landing lag.
|fairname=&nbsp;
|fairdmg=4% (hit 1), 3% (hit 2), 5% (hit 3)
|fairdesc=Kirby does three spin kicks. The first two hits deal weak knockback to lead into the last hit, which delivers below-average knockback.
|bairname=&nbsp;
|bairdmg=12% (clean), 9% (late)
|bairdesc=Quickly crouches in midair then kicks his legs behind him. High knockback and has [[sex kick]] properties, though the duration is shorter than most sex kicks. The move has very low start-up lag and good range, with a slight disjointed hitbox. It is by far Kirby's most useful aerial, as well as one of his most useful attacks, and is very good at edgeguarding, and can perform [[Fence of Pain]] techniques.
|uairname=&nbsp;
|uairdmg=10%
|uairdesc=Kirby does a flip kick in midair, similar to his up smash.
|dairname=&nbsp;
|dairdmg=2% (hits 1-6), 2% (landing)
|dairdesc=Kirby performs a drill kick downward. The hitboxes are weak [[meteor smash]]es. Alone, the meteor smash is useless against all but characters with very weak vertical recoveries, such as {{SSBB|Donkey Kong}} or {{SSBB|Bowser}}. However, when the attack hits multiple times, or used with a footstool jump, it can be a deadly edge-guarding tool. Most useful for edgeguarding opponents recovering from below,
|grabname=&nbsp;
|grabdesc=&nbsp;
|pummelname=&nbsp;
|pummeldmg=1%
|pummeldesc=Punches enemy. Moderate speed.
|fthrowname=&nbsp;
|fthrowdmg=8%
|fthrowdesc=Based on the Pile Driver from the Suplex ability in ''Kirby Super Star''. Kirby flips and slams the opponent in a pile driver-like maneuver. At low percents, this throw has incredible combo potential and can lead into combos dealing over 40%, with additional followups potentially dealing over 60%.
|bthrowname=&nbsp;
|bthrowdmg=8%
|bthrowdesc=Based on the Backdrop ability from ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''. Kirby quickly flips backwards and slams opponent head-first into the ground. Useful for getting opponents off stage or in the air.
|uthrowname=Air Drop
|uthrowdmg=10%
|uthrowdesc=Based on the Air Drop from the Ninja ability in ''Kirby Super Star''. Kirby holds the foe and rapidly jumps offscreen, then rockets back down to the ground, creating an explosion. KOs at around 160-175% on most stages.
|dthrowname=&nbsp;
|dthrowdmg=1% (hits 1-10), 2% (throw)
|dthrowdesc=Based on the Quick Stamping from the Suplex ability in ''Kirby Super Star''. Kirby throws his victim into the ground, and then stomps on them several times quickly. He then finishes the assault with a jump attack. The stomps also damages nearby opponents.
|floorfname=&nbsp;
|floorfdmg=6%
|floorfdesc=Kirby gets up and does a spin kick.
|floorbname=&nbsp;
|floorbdmg=6%
|floorbdesc=Kirby gets up, then kicks on one side, then the other.

|edgefdesc=Kirby does a flip kick onto the stage.
|edgesname=&nbsp;
|edgesdmg=6%
|edgesdesc=Kirby does a spinning split kick onto the stage.
|nsname=Inhale
|nspage=Inhale (Kirby)
|nsdmg=6% (copy), 10% (spit), 9-18% (star)
|nsdesc=Kirby sucks up his opponent. He can exhale them as a star to deal damage, or copy their neutral special attack. The stars damage depends on the opponent's weight. Some characters will give him an alternative special move due to mechanics that would not work properly when copied over, like [[Olimar (SSBB)|Olimar]]'s [[Pikmin Pluck]].
|ssname=Hammer
|sspage=Hammer (move)
|ssdmg=23% (ground head), 18% (ground handle), 17% (air hit 1 head), 13% (air hit 1 handle), 15% (air hit 2 head) 10% (air hit 2 handle)
|ssdesc=Kirby swings his hammer forwards in an arc, which sends his opponents skyward on contact. When used in midair, Kirby swings it two times, causing Kirby to rise slightly. Second aerial swing is a powerful [[semi-spike]].
|usname=Final Cutter
|usdmg=5% (rise), 2% (drop), 5% (landing), 6% (wave)
|usdesc=Kirby jumps straight up and falls straight down with a curved blade, cutting anyone he comes in contact with on the way up and meteor smashing anyone he comes in contact with on the way down. When landing, Kirby creates a shockwave projectile that moves forwards quickly.
|dsname=Stone
|dsdmg=14% (shockwave), 18% (impact)
|dsdesc=Kirby turns into a heavy object and plummets straight down. Enemies are sent flying on contact. Kirby cannot be damaged in this form, but he still can be grabbed. 
|fsname=Cook Kirby
|fsdmg=24% (12 hits), 10% (release)
|fsdesc=Kirby pulls in nearby opponents into a pot and cooks them. If [[items]] are on, then certain items will pop out of the pan as soon as the players are released.

==In [[competitive play]]==
===Matchups===
{{SSBBMatchupTable|kirby=yes}}
Kirby has a decent matchup spread overall. He is countered by 3 characters, soft countered by 7, has 12 even matchups, soft counters 9, and counters 5. Kirby generally does well against characters he can crouch under most of their moves or have hard hitting him, like {{SSBB|Falco}}, {{SSBB|Sheik}}, {{SSBB|Captain Falcon}}.

===Tier placement and history===
Players almost immediately saw Kirby's improvements from ''Melee'' (which included a stronger aerial game, grabs, and a more reliable recovery) and combined with the slower pace of the game to which he can keep up with, he was ranked 14th on Brawl's first tier list, and then rose to 13th place on the second and third tier lists. However, due to characters of higher tiers having more prominent strengths, and the flaws of Kirby's poor endurance along with speed, he dropped to 16th in the fourth one, 19th in the sixth edition, and to 20th in the seventh and eighth versions. Regardless, Kirby has considerably improved from ''Melee'', and has his results and playerbase significantly increase, albeit still having trouble with most of the top and high tiers.

==Role in [[The Subspace Emissary]]==
[[File:Subspace kirby.PNG|thumb|200px|Kirby in ''[[SSE]]'']]
Kirby is one of the main protagonists in the SSE. In the beginning, a trophy of {{SSBB|Mario}} and Kirby are thrown into an arena, come to life, and have a friendly match. The player chooses the one they want to play as. After the battle between the two, the victor revives the fallen loser, and the two fighters celebrate and wave to the crowd when suddenly, the Subspace Army attacks {{SSBB|Peach}} and {{SSBB|Zelda}}, who were watching their match, and both come to their aid. After the brief battle, the [[Ancient Minister]] shows up with a giant [[Subspace Bomb]] that is quickly armed by two R.O.B.s. When Mario attempts to stop the bomb, he is ambushed by a giant cannonball and is blasted away from the stadium. Meanwhile, the two princesses are captured by [[Petey Piranha]], and are thrown into separate cages. Kirby then faces off against Petey, but only one princess can be freed. After defeating Petey, {{SSBB|Wario}} appears carrying a giant gun called the [[Dark Cannon]], turns the princess Kirby didn't save into a trophy, and runs off with her. As Kirby and the remaining princess begin to leave, Kirby, seeing that the Subspace Bomb is about to explode, flees the Midair Stadium via [[Warp Star]]. However, they are soon chased by the Halberd and are forced to land on it. Soon after, an [[Arwing]] gets shot down, blowing both Kirby and the princess off the Halberd and onto a series of ridges.
After climbing down from the ridges, Kirby sees/hears something and runs ahead, leaving Peach/Zelda behind. She is then turned into a trophy from behind by {{SSBB|Bowser}}'s Dark Cannon, and is copied by a [[Shadow Bug]] clone of Bowser. After a fight, Mario and {{SSBB|Pit}}/{{SSBB|Link}} and {{SSBB|Yoshi}} are turned into trophies, and are captured by an arm from a [[cargo]] drove by {{SSBB|King Dedede}}, which also has Zelda/Peach, {{SSBB|Luigi}}, and {{SSBB|Ness}}'s trophies. Suddenly, Kirby appears from behind and uses Final Cutter to sever the arm, and revives the pair's trophies in the process. When Dedede attempts to escape, Pit/Link fires an arrow at his cargo, slowing it down a little, and the five pursue Dedede to save their friends.

Eventually, they find a cave that Dedede's cargo is parked by, and after getting through, they find Dedede's hideout. Upon exploring his hideout they see a hole in the wall, and decide to enter it. They then see Bowser, who escapes to the Halberd after avoiding Mario and Pit's attacks. After the scuffle however, Kirby finds a [[Dedede Badge|mysterious badge]] that fell off Zelda/Peach's trophy.

Some time after that, Kirby and the others pursue the Ancient Minister in a desert, trying to stop him from detonating another Subspace Bomb. Despite their best efforts, the bomb still explodes, and they barely managed to escape it (Kirby flies on a Warp Star with Pit and Link on it while Mario rides on Yoshi). Kirby and the others then aided {{SSBB|Marth}}, {{SSBB|Ike}}, {{SSBB|Lucas}}, the {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}}, and the {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}} in warding off the Subspace Army troops that had come to face them.

After defeating them, the [[Falcon Flyer]], and the [[Halberd]] (now under {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}'s control) land in front of them, and they all join forces to defeat the Subspace Army. The [[Subspace Gunship]], commanded by Bowser and {{SSBB|Ganondorf}}, appears out of a large sphere of Subspace where the Isle Of The Ancients used to be, and after destroying the Halberd, tries to attack 4 smaller ships emerging from its wreckage. Fortunately, Kirby manages to save them by destroying the Gunship with [[Dragoon]] (suggesting that the Halberd and smaller ships were a distraction so he could launch this surprise attack), and follows the others into Subspace.

When they confront [[Tabuu]], Tabuu unleashes his [[Off Waves]] that turn everyone, including Kirby, into trophies. However, Kirby is miraculously revived thanks to the [[Dedede Brooch|badge]] he found at Dedede's hideout earlier, which he had swallowed prior to Tabuu's attack (when Bowser escapes with the Peach/Zelda trophy in his Clown Car). After going through Subspace alone and reviving some of the fighters along the way, Kirby finds Ganondorf's trophy. Before he can do anything, Bowser appears and attacks Ganondorf's trophy in revenge for turning him into a trophy earlier, before throwing it aside. King Dedede then runs over to Kirby and hugs him before pointing the staircase to Kirby, and dragging Kirby up it. Kirby then helps the others fight Tabuu.

Kirby's main and [[Final Smash]] trophies can be obtained by clearing {{SSBB|Classic Mode}} and [[All-Star]] mode respectively with Kirby.

:'''Kirby''' 
::''A round, pink ball of cuteness from a distant, peaceful star. He can swallow anything with his gigantic mouth, then spit it out as ammo. He has the handy ability to copy powers and use them as his own. His hovering ability lets him fly through the air with ease. He's so round, he's sometimes treated like a ball.''

{{Trophy games|console1=GB|game1=[[Kirby's Dream Land]]|console2=SNES|game2_ntsc=[[Kirby Super Star]]|game2_pal=Kirby's Fun Pak}}

:'''Cook Kirby'''
::''Kirby in chef's garb. When Kirby throws on his chef's hat, a giant pot appears in the center of the screen. Characters, items, and even long-distance weapons are sucked into the pot. Once they've simmered a bit, food items equal to the number of things in the pot appear. Characters in the mix get blasted straight up out of the pot.''

==Trivia==
*When Kirby misses with a dash grab, he enters an animation similar to when he misses an enemy with the Suplex ability in ''Kirby Super Star''.
*Kirby's helpless animation is the same pose he takes when he falls a long distance in most ''Kirby'' games, and in the games this diving pose could damage enemies. Kirby uses this kind of helpless animation when copying and uses {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}'s [[Mach Tornado]], {{SSBB|Donkey Kong}}'s [[Giant Punch]], {{SSBB|Ness}}'s [[PK Flash]], {{SSBB|Lucas}}' [[PK Freeze]], or using the Final Cutter and being moved off a platform while still in landing pose.
*Kirby and {{SSBB|Mr. Game & Watch}} are the only characters that fully change their body color on their palette swap.
*Kirby's Wii remote selection voice clip is from his ''Melee'' taunt, instead of an original, new clip used in ''Brawl''. This also applies to {{SSBB|Samus}}, {{SSBB|Peach}} and {{SSBB|Ganondorf}}.
*Kirby is tied with {{SSBB|Mario}} for being the most playable character in the Subspace Emissary, being playable in 9 levels.
*In the game's 2006 E3 trailer, Kirby is seen using his aerial {{b|Hammer|move}} animation from ''Melee'', which was eventually changed to two horizontal swings in the final version.
