Despite being a lower mid-tier character in ''SSB4'', Little Mac received a mix of buffs and nerfs in the transition to ''Ultimate'' that resulted in him generally being viewed as being nerfed overall. While he has received useful direct buffs, he received heavy nerfs to his damage output and combo potential. In addition, the universal engine changes in ''Ultimate'' hinder him more so than help him, which is noticeable by how most of the cast benefits from said changes in comparison to him. While balance changes have improved his perception and he has dedicated mains who have achieved impressive results in both regional and national tournaments, Little Mac's struggles in competitive play have resulted in him having extremely low representation overall, with most players considering him a bottom 5 character, and resulting in him being ranked 81st out of 82 in the current ''Ultimate'' tier list in the E+ tier.
